Hot Toys – MMS202D04 - 1/6th scale RoboCop Collectible Figure

[5x10]

The paint does look very nice in that shot. But in others, it too comes off as too shiny.

Is it that hard to get the paint right? Jeez-Louise.

Believe me, having both figures, the eb version is more accurate than the ht version
So eb may have a slightly longer head, but ht version has an incorrect color paint job
Pick your poison, but they are both excellent robocop figures

Settle down, PC, nobody wants a blue Robo. Except for Bo.

But they don't want a "Chrome" one either I think all the people with a small exception of some are trolls just trying to rattle our cages since it is easy to do so by just saying it looks shiny ALYD I'm looking at you and your 8 posts

Had to look up the enterbay version after that pic. Really like the paint. In the video I watched anyway. I'd totally try a repaint on the ht version but I just can't justify wasting a 300 dollar toy if it went wrong.

Watch out he's shooting a blue Robo at me Bo whats up with Peter Weller's voice in that movie? It always bugged me as a kid, and even now as a adult.

Yankee did you PO BD Robo? I'm still debating whether to wait, I don't think it will sell out, but I know its something I will buy for sure, it might be good to just have it paid off in advance and not worry abut seeing him for another year and a half .

Personally I would like to only have one Robocop in my display. Rather than two. I would much prefer spending $650 on Robocop and another license such as Batman Returns!

Batman ain't coming out for a long while, no announcements yet, he may end up like Icabob Crane, I will own 3 Robocops or I should say 3 Murphy's it will be a boss display once I got them all in hand.

Then why can't custom headsculpts look good I don't want to dog people that work on customs but they usually don't look as good as Hot Toys or the same paint apps, if you could paint so good you should start your own Robocop repaint shop then m8, quit being such a kiwi

There's a difference between laying down a coat of paint and painting a face.

I don't even know why you're arguing. You admitted you'd never done it. I have. It's all in the paint (provided you can lay an even coat of paint down). Be ignorant somewhere else.

I'm not alone obviously especially if I'm paying 300.00 for a figure, and don't ****ing tell me what to do M8 you ain't the boss of me, see ya in a couple days since you don't post on here often anyways.

a) Consider it sage advice, given your admitted ignorance on the matter.

b) I have no idea why you quoted RiggsMcClane at me. I've said before, the base silver is too bright.

c) There's a lot of noise on this forum, all too often not much signal....

Last time I am talking to you on the matter since I am "ignorant" I quoted him because he doesn't want to repaint him and **** it up and be out of $300.00 so if I'm ignorant at painting something why don't you say the same to him?

 

[CollectorGuy]

still trying to figure out why one of the guns is diecast. I mean if the diecast 1 is too heavy to hold then
why make it diecast at all? From what is said the diecast gun has less detail as well so again WHY?

Why would I tell him? He's not saying that pearl jobs are hard to do. Understand, the pearl itself, from the pictures, is nice. It's a nice job. It's the underlying base colour that's too bright. Understand now? It's not a matter of difficulty. They look stunning, but pearl jobs are quite simple. The underlying base is wrong. That's not a problem with the factory, or to do with it being a complex paintjob, HT just didn't do their colour-matching right. 10-20% more towards the gun-metal side of the spectrum on the base silver, and we'd all be giggling like schoolgirls.

I may have been a bit harsh before, I'm operating on short sleep, so I'm a little blunter than usual, but trust me when I say, this isn't wrong because it's a difficult paintjob that can't be reproduced under factory conditions, HT just ****ed it up.

Some people seem to think weight = quality. I've said it since the first DC announcement. Diecast leads to lower quality. Less precise castings. Very definitely not a fan. It's needless, and reduces quality, which is the opposite to what we should all want as collectors.

That makes no sense though, making the figure DC is 1 thing, but making something like the gun DC and without proper
trigger hands to hold it is just DUMB! Having a weighty pistol serves no purpose, they should have just done 2 plastic
ones. Its just weird to me that the only purpose of the DC pistol is going to be for sticking it in the leg. Pointless DC use.

Wow you finally make sense when you take your time and slowly explain yourself. When you don't, you start to sound more ignorant them me, thank you for that well thought out explanation. Seriously no troll.

The only explanation I've heard is that the diecast gun is for the holster, so yeah like you said it makes not sense, why a plastic one wouldn't due is beyond me too.

Would you say the same is true of the QS001 Endoskeleton? Because I find that paintjob way too bright and reflective, at least as much as this Robocop.

I really like having the diecast bits on this figure, it makes it feel really nice in your hand and gives the whole figure the illusion of metal. As far as the DC gun goes, again it just feels really nice in your hand. Nice an weighty, premium. Considering HT advertised this as die cast and for some reason or another didn't put that much on it, they most likely just made a gun out of it because it was easy. And to avoid total false advertising.
