I saw one of those job lots on eBay from a favoured Chinese seller and thought to myself "Joe-scaled Terminators... YES!" but then they arrived and I was dismayed and amused, mostly dismayed. Firstly, between the five I got, there were three distinct sizes (I've pictured the tallest and the shortest and, secondly, there's no way any of them could represent a true Terminator against my joes size-wise. They are NOT in scale at all lol.
I'm disappointed as I'd previously used the same line's Moto-Terminators for my Dreadnoks, but it seems the T units just don't compute. However, as the 3.75/4" line seems under-sized, I ordered what's supposedly a 6" version from the same line/company and I guess maybe that'll stand just half a head taller than RoadBlock and look the part haha

I got some of these when they were in a dollar store a year ago. I put them in my Snake armors.
I think it's cool they'd be in there to crawl out when the armor itself gets too damaged. |

I don't think a good 1:18 endo is meant to be. I think Palisades would have been the closest, but alas they went under before the figures could come out.
Personally I think there are enough SW droid parts out there to make a respectable endoskeleton. |

I used to have the A-10 Warthog. It is under-sized but you can get in some of the smaller 25th-type joes.

I still have one A-10 which I will probably just sell. Bought it for a project I cancelled. As someone mentioned it is very small. Kinda like an A-10 drone. It's well detailed but sadly too small.

These are "endo" skeletons...The human skeleton wont be in scale with the exact portions of a figure outside of its skin and out layers. This of course won't be as menacing as having a 7'0 size endo T0-800 beating the doors down but think of it, if your skelton jumped outta your average joe sized figure, how would it look?

Yeah those are pretty small. I have a Playmates one and it's in scale with my Joes. I'll have to dig it out and take a pic I suppose. I put Money Bags Destro's Armor and Gatlin gun on him and it looks pretty cool. I have the Terminator Salvation A-10 and It's pretty small and not nearly as good as I had hoped it would be. I can see why they didn't really sell it here in the states. Not worth the price I paid for it. The Blair figure however made up for it. Maybe you can just use them for dead terminator bodies on the ground...as the scale wouldn't be as noticeable like that.....
