Would really wish someone would repaint this, as far detail goes Hot Toys is the winner but with a good repaint, this would blow Hot Toys one of the water!
I'm going to have to respectively disagree
Not only is the ht paint worse than this, but it's body proportions are inaccurate and make it look more like a toy vs a man in a suit
I recently bought another 1/4 scale figure, so I put all of them on the same shelf and robo looked like a guy in a suit vs the taller slimmer superman
Almost like how weller would look standing in costume next to reeve
The ht robo is slim no matter who u put him up against IMO
Lol,sorry about going off on a tangent[
That's the neca supes[
I thought it might of been but I didn't know Neca put clothes on their figures now.
He's still just sculpted plastic apart from the cape, similar to their 1966 batman and robin. But you're right, NECA is starting to use soft goods for some of their figure's outfits, like the coat on their 1/4 penguin, for example.
I'm surprised that the Penguin was able to keep a similar price point with a fabric coat included. Then it ultimately end up canceling on the umbrella accessory which is a shame. With a larger scale, you can't shy away from the details. That's the challenge of making larger scale figures. You have to also up the game with the details.
Enterbay proudly announced their multi layer paint coating for their Robocop figure and it does show on the figure. I don't think you can do a better job with that. It looks like metal. You really need to take a good look at the figure in person. With some good lighting too.
I just watched robo again last night and there are many times where robos suit doesn't look metalI am sure this looks way more impressive than what the pictures and videos show but both of those requirements you mentioned should not be necessary to see how good it is. The Hot Toys one looks way more detailed than this in practically every picture or video I have seen of it. This has a plastic appearance, whereas Hot Toys one has a metal appearance and looks much more realistic. So I am wondering if a repaint would fix this or is it the type of plastic that is making the Hot Toys one look more realistic.

Only thing I wish eb did was give the suit more purple and blue hues
Not sure what I would call it, fiberglass or some composite type material.His armor is meant to made out of metal, so I find it strange that you think the suit doesn't look like metal as it sure looks like it is made out of metal in the movie to me, despite that it isn't in real life. So what does it look like it is made out of to you then?
I think everyone would agree with that.

Not saying the toy needed to reflect it, it just caught my eye last night while watching the movie
There are a ton of imperfections in the suit if you look closely
I should have clarified, like on flat pieces of his chest plate or shoulder, you will see divots/uneven formHmm I bet.

I saw a ton of the black cloth he was wearing by his neck/arm pits
Hmm ok, you have a good eye for detail bro.
I noticed the same thing even with the upgraded prop suit in Robocop 2. Esp when he lifted his arms, the black cloth is very obvious. The high def video we have nowadays make these flaws even more glaring. I also agree that the suit looks more like some sort of high-tech composite than metal.
4k video and I watch it on my oled TV
So many more details than the 80s and 90s!
