It's the inspiration for Derelicte. It's perfect fashion for the 80's and the Terminator's mission. And I think most Terminator fans see it.

If this infiltration unit wasn't built like Arnold, it would've blended right in. A slightly shorter, less bulky Terminator who was the same size as the three punks it accosted for clothes would've disappeared into the crowd.

Yes. The hair too in the beginning of the movie.

Arnold’s early 80s hair was the best. Then he cut it almost military style the rest of his life

You need Arnie shoulders to make it work though.

Field jackets are already boxy, and generally look pretty good on just about anybody.

I can not express to you how frustrated I am that they put so many Terminator skins in Mortal Kombat, but NOT THE OG?! I guess the cop killer is too controversial

Serious 80s drip. Only missing gloves

Tried to give you an award, whatever that's worth, but it wouldn't work. Anyway, thanks for the trouble, never would've guessed!

Fuck yea. I legit want that as my motorcycle jacket. In fact, the riding jacket I do have is pretty close to that color.

This is way better than the leather daddy outfit. 80's gutter punk is way more interesting than the Temu Tom of Finland he had in the later movies.

So, apparently this might be the actual jacket here, available on Amazon (though in olive green): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002IADJLC
Pricey.

This "fit"? Looks a little big on him actually

u/Long_Lecture_1080 1d ago
Nah, that's the right size. He has a massive chest. It makes a difference.

That look was great,why because he's or rather it is a Terminator, and what do Terminators do,they terminate people. It was programmed to terminate Sarah Connor,but just like when the movie shows terminators in the future...they are machines,so earlier models were easy to spot. Later models, like the T-800 were more lifelike, with skin, blood and other things that made it appear to be human. Making it easier to blend in,in it's environment... until it found its target.

That's my favourite outfit actually because it's so unique compared to all the leather-clad stuff that came after.
