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

[Bo Shrek]

Pictures are great, but with different lighting they do bring out the question.....$300???

 

[Reinhardt]

In looking at it again, it does look more plasticky to the previous pics we have seen.

 

[Yoshi]

Pretty sure it's just the lighting effects right?

$300 is the new $200

I want to know what exactly is die-cast and what is not. This sucker will be heavy. I bet if you put this and the ED-209 on one (top) shelf of a detlof, watch for smashing sounds coming from the man-cave

It's called overexposure.

Still looks like solid gold to me.

I often wonder is folks, especially Americans really get Robocop.

It's pretty much a big middle figure to American culture.
I only ask as Team America didn't go down too well over there from what I remember.
I wonder why Robocop is getting away with it unless many just don't see what it's actually saying or they do get it and just don't care.

Sorry man I don't understand what you are trying to say. No disrespect just not understanding.

 

[Zodach]

I'm also curious what you think the movie/property says about American culture Eamon.

Well it's not what I think, it's what it is.

Well some see Robocop as as just movie about a dude who gets changed into a machine and then kicks some ***.

Robocop is actually about America's overt capitalism, where it's headed and big middle finger to the Regan era.

To young to read that much into it as a kid. Today (as a adult) I see a movie I enjoyed as a kid!!

Fair enough!

But just because you didn't notice, doesn't mean it's not there!

It's pretty obvious but still just one of many different layers of this movie.

You say it's obvious but it clearly isn't to some as we have discovered and while I agree that there are other themes, this one is the most dominant.

 

[RIDDICK]

and while I agree that there are other themes, this one is the most dominant.

I'd say that the "big corporation" theme was so prominent and cuz it was a common one long before Regan many ppl didn't saw anti-capitalistic undertone.

I guess but Regan was the one who said that 'every American can have anything they want' and really pushed capitalism way more than any other President before him. Capitalism became a whole new animal in the Regan era.

Why are you guys trying to turn just an old fashion Sci-Fi Cyborg movie into something political?

 

[Khev]

Robocop is actually about America's overt capitalism, where it's headed and big middle finger to the Regan era.

Corrupt corporations are hardly unique to a single presidency. In that regard RoboCop is just as relevant today as it was in 1987.

No one is trying to do anything. It's all there as you cared to look.
