Japan’s Medicom Toys just released the first images of the Terminator 2 Judgement Day, T-800 Endoskeleton figure under their MAFEX brand.
The figure was first teased as an early prototype at the Medicom Toy Exhibition which was held in July of last year. However no updates have emerged until yesterday when a very grainy image spread across socials, marking the official buildup of the release.
This figure just hit BigBadToyStore for Pre-order and is priced at $139.99 with a release date of February 2024.
To be noted: This version of the T-800 was released by NECA as a 7″ figure in 2019 which compared to this MAFEX figure looks like a cheap knockoff, (no offense to NECA). It was also released in this scale in 2021 by McFarlane toys. And of course Hot Toys put out their 1/6 T-800 in 2015 which is still widely regarded as a grail piece.
Of all the options available both past and present, I believe MAFEX knocked this one out of the park, I don’t imagine these figures will sticking around very long and none will be heading to the discount bin anytime soon.
Check out these images we were able to gather from ToyArk.
