Salvation Toys - New Head Knocker Pics! And Video Game!

Browsing around Terminator merchandise this evening, I came across some interesting Terminator: Salvation toys!

As we told you in OCTOBER, a whole line of T4 toys will be coming our way from Playmates.

FUNKO will be doing their own line of T4 merchandise and we can show you two of the items now!

First of all, let us introduce to you the T-600 bobblehead!

This guy has certainly been workingout the gym! Notice the wider body frame compared to the T-800.

We think he needs re-working a bit. A more threatening stance and a less of a smile... who knows maybe even a gun. We're sure the final version will differ in some way!

And now the T-700 Wacky Wobbler!

This guy isn't restricted to the base like most other bobbleheads. Again, like his T-600 head bobbing companion, we think he needs a bit of a re-work. He just looks too... comic like. The Terminators are supposed to be terryfying killing machines, not friendly robots with big cheesy grins.

Prices are differeing at the minute, UK sites advertising them for slightly more, however we expect these to come down nearewr the time of release. These items are expected to ship on or around 30th April 2009. Pre-order yours now! UK customers can find them at ForbiddenPlanet whereas anybody in the States can acquire them at EntertainmentEarth.

Keep checking back for more Terminator: Salvation merchandise news. For the time being, check out the current line of Neca & Hollywood Collectables Terminator head knockers!
