This 3D-printed robotic hand is fully articulated and even has an opposable thumb. It’s called the MK2 from Anthromod and I’m sure that Skynet is pretty happy that we’re doing its bidding already.

This amazing-looking Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine Terminator helmet was created by Shawn Thorsson, and it’s hard to believe, but it started off as a papercraft model. I knew that you could do many things with paper, but this has to be one of the most ingenious ways of creating amazing props.

2012 is the year the world will end, if you are to believe the looneys who are convinced that because the Mayans didn’t bother to include 2013 on their calendars, it means Armageddon. While that might not happen, it won’t take much for it all to go to shreds if people start printing their own robots. Luckily, this is only a 3D printed robot hand. Then again, didn’t Skynet start with the robot hand of one of the Terminators sent back through time?

Like most geeks, you’ve probably acknowledged the passing of the day that Skynet became self-aware. Depending on the dates, it should have happened on April 19th, 2011, or worst case, on April 21st, Judgment Day. Needless to say, I hope that Skynet or any AI system plugged into defense systems remains unaware.
Whatever happened, you can commemorate the week Skynet did/didn’t become self-aware with this Terminator Endoskeleton Model T-800.

When I saw Terminator 2 Judgment Day in the theater, I was blown away. We’d all seen the first Terminator movie in secret, but the second one definitely put the bar up high. This is one of the reasons why the Terminator 2 Judgment Day T-800 Endoskull Replica is so cool. It’s a reminder of that great movie.

I’ve never thought of combining the Terminator with Spongebob Squarepants, but that doesn’t mean that this combo doesn’t look good.

Terminators and LEGOs? Now that’s a combination that I hadn’t thought of before, but that didn’t stop Martin Latta from completing this amazing LEGO T-800 bust.

The reviews of the new Terminator movie are starting to trickle out. The new Terminator movie is directed by McG and the NY Observer has their review up. The only question is can it do what J. J. Abrams did to Star Trek? From what I’ve read, probably not.
I just finished watching the season finale of The Sarah Connor Chronicles. It was an awesome way to finish the series. It was also an awesome way to finish the season.
Fox hasn’t renewed the series yet, so there’s a strong possibility that this will be it for Sarah Connor.
I really like how the liquid metal terminators form another faction in this future war. SkyNet isn’t united. Maybe this means that the humans and the liquid metal terminators have some sort of alliance. Weaver told John and Sarah that without John Henry, John wouldn’t be able to save the world. That makes sense. John would need some kind of a network to be able to destroy SkyNet. Without it, it would be hopeless.
It appears that John arrived after Judgement Day, meaning that Judgement Day has to happen. It makes total sense that neither Ellison nor Sarah stepped through the portal. Sarah can never go to the future, she will continue to try, unsuccessfully to stop Judgement Day.
With the next Terminator movie about to be released, there might be enough enthusiasm for this series to continue. The really interesting part is that if there is a next season, it will take place in the future. I’ve always said that the terminator franchise doesn’t spend enough time in the future. That’s what people want to see.
