Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The T-RIP (Resistance Infiltrator Prototype) is the prototype (or daddy if you prefer) of the T-800. This is the endoskeleton T-RIP and is a silver version. He is a bit of a mixed bag.
On the plus side he looks good with plenty of details on the skull and especially the hydraulics and tubing in the upper torso area. There is plenty of detail on the legs and the feet look great. He has red plastic eyes connected to a small window of the same color material at the top of his head so if placed under a light his eyes will appear to glow. As clunky as my description is you really barely notice this small round window on his head so no worries there. He has two accessories that fit in his hands fine. One is a dark metallic colored gun. The other is a pretty long piece of pipe he can use to bust you up. The threaded end looks really good.
Some negatives are size and articulation. In the size category he just looks kind of small and next to other 6" scale action figures this gets noticeable. Now in their defense, Playmates had to basically make a skeleton, which will of course be a bit scrawny looking and next to other 6" figures I can see where these are actually the right size to be a skeleton in this scale. But this is basically a movie monster and it couldn't hurt to be a little larger than life.
Articulation is limited. You get shoulder and elbow joints and hip and knee joints and the feet rotate. That's about it. The shoulders have a good range of movement both up and down and side to side. The elbows go up and down and rotate but you have to work for the rotation and be brave. Hips and knees are forward and back only. You can move the waist but it snaps back to center. You can move the neck but due to hydraulics attached to the torso up to the base of the skull it pulls it back to center after time. I'd have been happy without that set of hydraulics if I got neck articulation out of it.
He looks good and is fun but not quite as fun as he could be. If you like terminators and have the money then he's a worth while pick up.

Judgment Day has come and gone. The human resistance is no match for the machines of Skynet. They are weaker, slower and capable of feeling pain. But the humans have something that the machines lack - instinct and imagination. And they will have to use everything they have to fight back, take back the world and live on.
