TERMINATOR 3: RISE OF THE MACHINES (2003) - Full Size T-X Endoskeleton
A full size T-X endoskeleton from Jonathan Mostow’s sci-fi action film Terminator 3:Rise of the Machines. The T-X was the villain of the film, sent by Skynet to destroy the members of the Human Resistance. It was a highly intelligent and formidable adversary that was able to reprogram other machines, as well as effectively kill humans. This unique full body endoskeleton, made by Stan Winston Studios, was the only one created for the production. Stan Winston Studios was a well-known special effects company that worked on many Hollywood blockbusters including Jurassic Park and Aliens, and they participated in the creation of all the cyborg machines throughout the original Terminator series. This piece was also exhibited in the Studio’s display room. The T-X is a female skeletal form, constructed from black, chrome-impregnated resin that covers a steel and aluminium cable controlled armature. It displays plastic and metal pipes and hydraulics throughout to give a realistic machine resemblance, as well as a skull-like head with slanted eyes and a hinged jaw. It features blue LED lights in the eyes, torso and left arm that are controlled by an external power pack with a worldwide power adaptor. The left arm’s LEDs fire sequentially to create a pulsing effect. The right arm has a four-pronged 'hand', which was one of the weapons made available to the T-X. The endoskeleton displays intentional production distressing throughout, with painted rust details, scratches and scuffs. It shows signs of minor wear, and repairs are evident on the right arm prongs where glue residue is present. The T-X comes on a custom-made display stand. It is accompanied by a 12" x 8" lobby card used in the promotion of the movie.
