cross referencing with IMDB...

Mohawk guy could be the actor Roland Kickinger, who is listed as "T-800"

"The thing that jumps out at me, though, is the six-inch figure with the metal hand. That looks like John Connor, not Marcus, which lends more credence to the idea that Connor gets Terminatorized at some point."

You're reaching. There's no way that even remotely resembles John. Not that it's very much Marcus either, but it's closer at least.

@KSChris: You're probably right... I keep going back and forth about it. It's not a very good likeness of either Sam Worthington or Christian Bale, but I decided it looks a fair bit like the figure on the far left of the third picture, who I think is definitely supposed to be Bale. But it could definitely be Marcus. If so, then who's mohawk guy???

@Smeagol92055: The weird thing is, I thought I'd used that tag a couple of times before, but now I can't find it. Anyway, you're welcome!

To quote Emerson Cod: Oh hell no!!!

You did NOT just associate George Clinton, chairman of the Parliament Funkadelic with ... disco???!????

You will be forgiven, in time, because we love.

@Jim Still Canuck After All These Years: No, no... I didn't say P-Funk *was* disco... more that the Atomic Dog video takes place in some kind of weird video-game discoteque. Or video-game dance club, if you prefer. I yield to no-one in my love of George Clinton. I have an autographed dog sketch of his at home.

The first picture definitely shows Marcus, not John. John, if in any of these, is the figure to the far left in the third image.

So the question is--who's the dude with the mohawk?

@apatheos: You may well be right... I suck at recognizing faces at the best of times, and I don't think these action figures are the best likenesses. If the steel hand guy is Marcus, then that does leave me wondering about mohawk dude. The spotty toy documentation did make it sound like there's a Marcus in every set, so that's one reason I gravitated towards thinking mohawk dude=Marcus.
