You gotta love the Christian Bale as John Connor head sculpt by Hot Toys. The resemblance is amazing and the skin texture and paintwork is absolutely stunning. The headset to his radio fits snugly in his left ear.
He keeps two of his spare M4 30-round magazines in the m4 ammo pouches. These come loose and you basically attach them to his very well produced harness.
The four C4 demolition blocks are kept stored by his left thigh. Note the knee pads incorporated into his very well worn tiger stripe pattern pants.

His radio sits nicely in the radio pouch carried on his back...
... along with the remaining four M4 30-round magazines. His SIG P250 pistol is kept in his hard shell holster attached to the drop-leg panel on his right thigh.

The man is INTENSE!! Not hard to imagine Christian Bale hurling verbal abuse at cinematographer Shane Hurlbut during the filming on the set of the movie. He used the F-word 36 times in four minutes. See my post HERE
And finally, with his Line launcher

This is one DAMN Fine figure indeed!!
Looking at the pictures, did you notice the edge of both hand gloves (near fingers) is not well painted or this is purposely to be painted that way.
ReplyDeletehey desmond, i believe these were proper gloves which were then cut at the finger tips by john connor, unlike some motorbike gloves which are already pre-cut, hence the look ;> hot toys is really quite detailed and accurate in its execution.
ReplyDeleteHOT TOYS done it again, nicely done figure...
ReplyDeleteI got a HOT TOYS USMC Fallujah headsculpt and i think its a Christian Bale look alike.
I outfitted him in a DID pilot gears, and the jacket looks similar somewhat to this one! hehe coincidence? i did that bash months ago before seeing this photos...

ReplyDeletestill the question remains "Are you psychic?"

ReplyDeleteabout the Psychic thing i don't know but i do sense a disturbance in the force whenever a good figure or accessory is on sale at ebay! LOL :)

I look at it over and over again and not get tired of watching how great work HT did with each and every detail.
ReplyDeleteI only try to find out one thing, and maybe you can help me: The leather kinda jacket peels off or is it very resistant, despite the fact that it is not supposed to be played with.
Thanks.
the leather jacket is holding out just fine. still hasn't peel yet and no cracks either. looks as good as new CHEERS
ReplyDelete@lex:
ReplyDeleteIt's good if your leather jacket still fine
Because mine already started to peel :(
My left badge has fallen off due to the cracks along side of the leather jacket that holds to the badge.
ReplyDeleteIt seems that the badge is 'glued' to the jacket, and the whole patch of jacket that it is glued to just came off.
Any idea how to fix it guys?
hi ethan
ReplyDeletesorry to hear that man :( it sucks BIG time when these things happen to expensive stuff that we pay good money for. I checked mine as well and can tell that it's all a matter of time before it happens to my John Connor piece too.
as far as i know, that's nothing much we can do about it because rubber and leather materials tend to deterioate over time (it's all a matter of WHEN and not IF)
that's why some people stay away from all toys that have rubber or leather materials. Some materials do last a lot longer than others (I don't know why that is) but some just fall apart on us.
Apparently, this John Connor figure is one of those :( I've read on forums as well of this particular John Connor's deterioating outfit i.e. the leather jacket. The other figure that's fallen apart is the HT WATCHMEN comedian figure and the rubber Martians from Mars Attacks!
In the end, we just enjoy it while it lasts I guess. No solutions have been offered to us :(
:( Thanks Alex
