After spending a few day with the new robo and comparing it to the enterbay version, I feel the ht version is a better representation of robocop
Not only am I referencing the figure itself but also the general feel that your looking at robocop
The articulation on the ht version is key. I wouldn't call it overly special as it has it flaws when certain parts are exposed(arm rod over extended, gaps in the wrist and ankles) it's just that the eb version is that bad in comparison
Now, I'm not a good poser by any means but the eb version cannot even bend 90 degrees in the arm/elbow, has very little ab articulation, and the neck is limited by a remote feature instead of having a joint
The ability of the ht version to hit iconic poses is what makes it feel more like robocop
The figure itself is also better starting at the helmet. The eb version does seem too long/tall when compared to the ht version. Both do good jobs on the sculpts, both have their advantages(ht = variety of mouthpieces, eb = better skin tones)
The one spot where the eb version might win is the body. Articulation aside, it provides a more accurate paint job and it's proportions are a little more accurate. The eb arms are attached a little higher but neither are high enough
Ht hands blow away the eb version as do the forearm areas. It's a struggle to keep the forearm pieces on the eb version while adjusting the hands
When compared to the ht version, the eb does feel somewhat cheap, especially for the price
Neither are perfect. Hot toys had the opportunity to really make the figure close to perfect with a better paint job, but I do think it's the best version out there
but regardless best review, hardcore fans will prob. want to own both but like you said for the price of the EB one it shouldn't feel cheap, great review man thanks for you imput.
