The Original Terminator

deathstroke

Just wanted to highlight this photo I took, which I’m pretty pleased with (though I may re-stage it, with darker lighting and maybe some background to give it a context).

I remember Deathstroke’s solo title came out around 1991 when I was obsessed with Terminator 2. DC made sure to push that “Deathstroke the Terminator” nickname back then, which was fair, since ol’ Slade Wilson predated the first Terminator film by a few years. I never picked up the comic, but I remember thinking Deathstroke looked pretty badass with all those guns and swords. For the record, in a straight fight i’d have to say Deathstroke would demolish a Terminator (except maybe the T-1000).

    That's probably going to be my favorite of the wave, and Deathstroke's definitely a bada$$. However, Deadpool will always take first place in this nerd's heart.

    CHIMICHANGA!!!

  2. Well, it beats the previous method of throwing the figure through the air and hoping you time the camera right.

    I lost more accessories that way…

    Ohhh — I was thinking the photo was unmodified. Gotcha. 🙂

    @Wes: I took the shot on a clear stand, then edited it out with Photoshop.

    I take it there's a string hidden somewhere here…?

  6. I wish I could find the masked version. What does it say that I got both the variants in DCUC 3 and have yet to see the standard?

  7. Man he comes with a shitload of accessories. Now I want one to taunt my Nightwing.
