Aha ha ha! I was at the post office this morning and My Cylon chrome body parts are there but the lady working in the post office says I need to wait until she sorts the new packages for everyone before I can take the package....I say to her but but...but I see it right there on the floor ,my name is on it and she is like no she will send an email to the postal website when it is ready to be picked up??? I am like, but...but...but I am here now and it is right there on the floor! She is just an old lady with her mind set to do it her way,LOL! I can't win so I am here waiting for the email to go to the Postal web site for when I can pick up, Dear God what has this world come too,LOL!

LOL! I swear the same thing happened to me the other day. I was in Walmart shopping for something for my kids and I had an online package coming in that day. I figured, "hey, I haven't got the email yet but the package should be here by now." I call the number and the service desk says "Sorry, the package is still in transit". Too bad, we then headed home. Then surprise, surprise, a hour and a half later I get an email that my package is in. Arrrgggg! hahaha Shakes fist in the air

Believe me I know Jer, The red tape situation is just everywhere these days, I am lucky the post office is just down the street 5 minutes, Going to have lunch and hopefully the Lady has finished her sorting.

Ya so anyway, I am stepping out soon to get my Cylon body parts. I am still going to be missing a few important pieces like the Collar/neck chrome piece and the utility belt piece plus the smaller parts like Arm,knees and shoulder bells. but the 2 biggest parts are here chest and back pack which is where I would like to put all the computer parts,voice synthesiser and an LCD touch screen.Hockey gloves look similar to cylon hands,grab them from canadian tire,LOL! Still planning on using mannequin and robotize the sugar plum out of it so the Cylon will be quick and flexible with real movements.As for walking,no, will still use tank tread system.Thinking of 2 smaller tanks for each leg, I have an idea how this could make it simulate walking using the torque brake system inside with worm gear motors.I have the classic Cylon body parts but still want to simulate the newer Ronald D. Moore CGI Cylons shown in the Battlestar 

Wow nice, even though I ask Scott for his B grade costume parts ,he always sends me stuff that is more Like A grade perfect Flawless chromed pieces! I guess he likes the fact that it will be part of a real working cylon robot instead of just a halloween costume worn once a year. Chest and Back pack!

I know I'm jumping ahead but so excited to get the build started,LOL! Oh I forgot to mention for voice it is just my Google mini speaker using the Home app the voice can be changed from human to robot by just lowering all the slider settings after you choose the English Male "Pink" voice. Thgen Google Mini will always sound like robot ,even when you use news RSS or any google voice apps,Mine tells the time every half hour too.

Wow,back to the Terminator topic,There are books for Terminator Universe??This guy has amazing info on stuff even I didn't know,that is one ugly early Terminator!

Well I think I may not need a mannequin to strap on the Cylon Armor, as I have one of those tall fans that rotate left and right. seems like the perfect size to build cylon exoskeleton customized with wires and pipes to look robotic underneath the chrome armor. Then all I need is to build the robotic pelvis and legs. I want the legs to be able to bend low when it fires it's gun so that is going to be something new for me to invent. I need to see how the fan looks inside to take out the heavy AC motor and see if I can change it to DC servo with existing gear movement Should be fun!
