Who couldn't use an extra hand sometimes huh? Builder Centuri decided he needed one and here's the result, a clearly T800 inspired mechanical hand. Hand anatomy is hard to get right in bricks, robotic aesthetics are difficult to master as well, so to get them both spot-on in one MOC is a feat.
The T-800 has always held a special fascination for me. I actually once owned a cast of the skull pulled from the original mold at Stan Winston's. This excellent build by Martin Latta is very faithful and wonderfully detailed. I would love to see it in a more dynamic pose.
