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

[DarthDiggler]

I don't want the sound chip crap...

I have no idea why I do, but I do!

I even like his stand ffs.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Yeah - the stand. Those hexagonal things are ugly.

Another do not want thing about the set for me.

 

[predarnold]

Looks great. Agreed with folks saying the die cast is an unnecessary addition to the cost, and the sound effects actually bring the whole product down in my eyes. That kind of cheap gimmickry is suited to mass retail Hasbro or NECA figures, not high end collectibles. What's next, "action punch" features? Aliens that squirt water out of their mouths? Spring loaded rocket launchers? I guess we should have seen this coming with the translucent plastic and light up stuff though.

Don't buy it !

The stand kind of makes sense for the character, but I like to use the uniform, standard HT stand for almost all my figures. I wish they included one of those with DX figures and things like this.

 

[jaimanstone]

Incredible. Can't wait to pick this up.

Wait. . .so you're saying I don't actually have to buy this?

Yeah, I dig the simple elegance of the standard HT stands too.

The DX stands are cool - sure, but if you've got limited space, they're a little impractical.

This looks like quite an improvement over the 2006 version. NOt bad.

Quite? It's a HUGE leap. Can't wait for the old ones to plummet down on eBay.

I do find it amusing that this story about Detroit also ran today (see link).
Looks like OCP just has a different name for the Delta City project.

Not only do they take up more space, but they are of different heights. It works for some display options, but not others.

you have 20 seconds to stop complaining.

hahahahahahahahahaha!

 

[Eamon]

Absolutely lost my shiz this mornin when I saw this for the first time!

It's so flippen cool.
Though I would've liked an unmasked head.

ED209 todays also! Tis a great day for Ireland!

Can we add to that list a possible DX Christopher Reeve Superman with "large S-shield cellophane wrap weapon"?

But yeah, I get your point. This looks amazing, but could have been about $80 cheaper without die-cast and sounds. Problem is, those are unnecessary yet costly things that I might swallow.

2006 version looks like a cheap toy.
2013 looks like true Robocop.

This is their best-looking figure since '89 Keaton Batman. When I first pulled up Hot Toys page I thought I was looking at a movie still. He's really good.

I figured they'd go diecast with him after the iron men did and we hadn't heard anything on this figure in so long. My biggest fear with robocop was that he'd have that frail, hollow feeling of the older iron man figures, so I for one welcome die cast.

I'm surprised they didn't give us an unmasked head sculpt, and that they're making the chair optional. Based on shelf space and cost, I'll likely get the version sans chair.

With a March release, it's going to be a loooooong wait!!

My thoughts exactly. This is bound to bring in new collectors just like the DX09 or the Reeve Superman did.

See.. to me, it makes more sense going die-cast with the Iron Man stuff because of all those little fiddly fragile pieces on them.

Murphy - on the other hand, isn't constructed that way, so I'd have been happy if they'd not bothered with it at all.

Yeah, March 2014 is more like July-Aug 2014 by Hot Toys' calendar.
