It's pretty clear that the HT figure is not large enough and it's an idealize version of the character like most HT figures. Still, the figure looks great. You can't compare a 1/6 figure with a dude in a rubber/plastic costume made in the 80's. I don't get all the criticism
i think its just a hope of perfection, the HT version does look a little thin, and it appears to have some purple and blue hues painted into the armor it aalso looks like the paint took a step back from the proto pics(less blue)
either way, i am pumped to get this guy
Im sure ill be just as happy as it, as i was with the EB version(which wasnt perfect either)
Hey, I'm still happy with the first Kenner Robocop figure
you must be a robofan then!
i love the neca version as well
One is die cast metal, although I don't know why they need it
The regular version comes with two guns as well

One gun is Diecast, one plastic. I imagine the Diecast may be too heavy for some poses?
I am the biggest Robocop fan! My favourite movie is Robocop '87, I wanted to be Robocop growing up, Murphy is my mom's maiden name....
Just love this character, love Peter Weller Robocop.
So I was really anticipating this figure and this is the one figure I would be critical about. This is the figure that got me into Hot Toys believe it or not...First figure that I ever purchased and it was a Pre-Order off of Loonentoys back in January.
Now I have a bunch of collectibles from Terminator, Predator, Star Wars, Iron Man, Batman..all the franchises I love. But this started it all when I saw those prototype pictures. So I really wanted this to be amazing and I have to say that I am very satisfied by the pictures and cannot wait to see it for myself in hand.
It is a bit disappointing to see some of the deficits in design that others have mentioned, and being on this forum you get information from very critical collectors. (And the critical collectors are important as we need people who really dig into the details). Of course no figure is 100% perfect...I respect the craftsmanship that goes into these amazing collectibles and understand it isn't as easy as it looks to replicate a real life object to 1/6 or 1/4 scale.
Nonetheless, I feel that this figure will be a great piece and though it isn't perfect I know that I will enjoy it very much. It is a similar situation with the MMS238, where it isn't a perfect figure but it looks damn good still. I do expect that the battle damaged Robocop will be an even better figure with the beautiful head sculpt and damaged body.
Anyways, hoping to have this guy pretty soon!!!!
