  • Kevin, Tony, and Ryan talk about Kenner's T2 toy line. Terminator 2 was the coolest action flick of the 90's, but why did it get a kids toy line?
    Thanks to Tony from @HackTheMovies and Ryan from Monster FX (instagram: @Monster.FX ) for being a part of this episode.

    My twin brother and I had a few of these along with the Last Action Hero guys. I loved the Power Arm Arnold. We were so excited because now we had Arnold toys to recreate his other movies like The Running Man and Commando lol! It was awesome.

    Also I remember for years I would refer to the t 800 endoskeleton in the movies as "techno punch" because of that toy 😂

    I'm pretty sure I still have both my battle damage and secret weapon figures. Back in the day, toys are toys, even if they weren't screen accurate.

    My best friend from Middle School had several of these. We were mostly into playing with the Toy Biz X-Men figures, though. I specifically remember that power arm Terminator. If he still has these, at his parents house, it's probably yellowed and covered in an inch thick layer of nicotine.

    I had the one with the blast away chest. Really wanted to get one of the endoskeletons, but my parents convinced me to get a dollar store Halloween skeleton and paint it silver instead. That would have satisfied me well enough, but my dad went the extra mile again and glued some old computer chips inside the rib cage to make it look more like a proper robot.

    But does the big Terminator figure have Arnold's voice from the movie? Or is it a hilariously awful sound alike ??

    • @Pegwarmers
      @Pegwarmers  Před dnem

      That one was done on a camera that had a remote control that could allow the camera to record for a fraction of a second. Then move the toy and record again
      I've also taken hundreds of photos and combined them in a video editor.

    in T2 Arnold didn't shoot his face and chest off to prove he is a machine to Dyson~ john gave him a blade and the T-800 peeled off the skin on his left arm and showed him his mechanical arm underneath~
