This shouldn’t come as any surprise since Hot Toys (or any other toy manufacturers for the matter) will milk every penny out of a franchise by releasing minor costume updates and variants. Well, at least this one comes with a battle-damaged endoskeleton featured base and a 1/6th scale fully articulated Hydrobot with light up function. So I guess it’s all good.
How many of you who purchased the original-release John Connor are intending to pick this version up as well? Or are some of you thinking that you should’ve waited for this instead? Me..I still prefer the original one, but the light up Hydrobot on this is making this kinda tempting…hrmm. Damn you HT!

If you enjoyed the Terminator: Salvation movie and can’t get enough of all things Terminator related, here’s an exclusive item to add to your list of must-haves. This 2GB USB flash drive from
Solid Alliance has red
Swarovski rhinestones for eyes to give it a menacing look (and crazy price tag). At 15,000 YEN ($160) for 2GB worth of capacity is by no means cheap, but that’s what you’ll have to pay for exclusivity as these are supposedly being produced in very limited numbers. It’s for sale only in Japan but if you really want one,
GEEKSTUFF4U apparently will be stocking some in September for us not living in the land of cool gadgets.

Terminator Salvation mania is currently sweeping cinemas worldwide. Reviews have been a mixed bag. I haven’t seen it myself, but will be heading to my local cinema sometime later this week to judge for myself. In the meantime, I guess I’ll just drool over this rather cool Terminator Salvation Fuel Cell Lighter from Hollywood Collectibles Group.
This lighter is fashioned after a Nuclear Fuel Cell which is found in the chest of every Terminator, and is what gives them their juice to light up those menacingly familiar glowing red (or blue) eyes. According to HCG, the lighter costs $19.99, is made from chrome plated diecast metal, and measures 3.5″ in length and is presented in a metal Terminator Salvation collector’s box.
If you’d like to get yourself one, just head over to the Hollywood Collectibles Group site.
