Does anyone?

PS. I figured that terminators should tower a bit (20mm), over puny 15-17mm humans. :)

Dan,

The Automotrons from 15mm.co.uk are a lot taller than most 15mm minis. Check the comparison shots I have on my Sky drive and you shoudl find that they tower over the other figures. These are the only ones I am aware of and worth a look.

Jeff,

I hadn't noticed their height until you pointed it out:

Very nice!

Thanks so much.

Hmm,

I would not think they would be (much) larger, if at all. I mean the entire purpose of the infiltrator series is to fit in (as well as an Arnold S. sized human fits in ;) with the average human population.

I guess you could chalk it up to different 'production lines' of bots; I just never thought of them as being that much physically larger. And, if I remember right the (officially licensed) 28mm Terminators done by Leading Edge Games were right in scals with the human figures tehy did.

Not saying that you are wrong, just giving my perspective and my 'evidence'.

Anyway, good luck finding some. (And if you do let me know, I'd love to throw my 20mm modern military up against some Terminators.)

"I mean the entire purpose of the infiltrator series is to fit in"

LOL. You would think the film makers would understand that basic point. Instead, they thought to infiltrate human resistance with a bunch of huge Arnolds. :)

These don't look like they were meant to be infiltrator endoskeletons (to be covered in skin):

These concept art images make them look very varied too:

Hmmm,

Interesting images. I've not seen Salvation, and I guess I was basing my opinion strictly on the first and second movie.

Given the images you present, (some how I never pictured a T-600 as being as massive as that image) I think that your 20mm idea fits perfectly.
