Crowdfunding campaign begins for new Terminator T-800 multimedia speaker.
AC Worldwide – the winner of the Innovation accolade at last year’s UK Licensing Awards – has begun a Kickstarter campaign for its latest licensed product.
The crowdfunding campaign is for the Terminator T-800 Endoskeleton multimedia speaker, with built-in camera and Alexa functionality.
The Terminator T-800 Endoskeleton speaker is an exact, polished alloy replica of the robot created for the T1 movie, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The T-800 boasts high-quality audio with powerful bass, glowing red eye sockets with a motion detecting camera in its left eye, cloud storage and voice-control using the built-in Alexa feature.
Standing 45cm (18 inches) tall, this is one of the largest reproductions of the Endoskeleton skull ever produced.
The Terminator T-800 Endoskeleton speaker is available on Kickstarter with pledges starting as low as £5 for a support mention on the product page.
Running for the initial seven days is the exclusive early bird pledge – for £240, fans will receive a first batch Terminator T-800 speaker with certificate of authenticity and gift box.
There are also exclusive one-off pledges available for those wishing to own the unique speaker, including serial number 101 (which was the T-800’s serial number in the movies), a personalised speaker or the special limited-edition ultimate ‘white gold’ unit.
AC Worldwide’ s founder, Karl Grimsey, commented: “We are truly very excited to have the opportunity to bring the T-800 to life, with a fully licenced replica – if you’re a Terminator fan you’re going to love this.
“While the project is technically challenging and loaded with features, we have a solid track record of delivery. Of course, we know that this will resonate with fans of the Terminator movies, but we also hope it will be of interest to a broader group of sci-fi, design and technology lovers.
“We hope that everyone will help support the Kickstarter campaign so that we can bring this ‘menacingly beautiful’ speaker and camera system to the market.”
