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

^This picture is more like it.

I just realized that the sound for his gun isn't one of the special features.

I though the figure looks good though.

Back view.

Gorgeous photos, but are these images heavily manipulated? There's a lot of heavy purple/blue hues present here that are barely present in the other photos. I mean it's almost hard to believe these are the same figure on display at the same place:

That doesn't surprise me

Did anyone see this pic on Michael Crawfords site? Play Arts Kai are doing a Robocop too. Pretty cool. Thought I'd post it here just in case Robo fans missed it.

Keep all the PAK crap out of HT threads please. Thx.

LOL @ Nini. It's hard not to call you a troll when you call something like this awful from any angle. I'll show restraint instead and just chalk it up to too much self abuse.

PAK 's Robocop for extrem action pose, I will buy that for a dollar

Really think there's a pose Robocop made in the movie that the Hot Toys figure won't be able to achieve? He wasn't the most dynamic action hero, given the limitations of the suit.

A little off-topic that's a little on-topic:

I'm just curious if any of you guys have seen comicbook artist Gerald Parel's sketch of Robocop. Gerald also collects figures and uses the handle COSMITRON here on the freaks' board. I think it looks better than what we're seeing so far from the new movie's behind the scenes photos

Looks like a grey fox wannabe or raiden with robo's head on it

That's 1000 times better than the actual remake but the fact of the matter is, nothing will ever recapture that original design better. They should have left it alone.

Well, changing the design sort of works as a bridge between the original and the current generation of viewers which means that the design in that awesome artwork up there works much better because there is some design or rather color cues from the original.

 

[toyrewind]

Actually, they're using the original design of the suit on the new movie. Just saw it from the leaked trailer from the con, I think. Just not sure if it's the main one or will just appear briefly.

 

[Spanbauer]

...because there is some design or rather color cues from the original.

I think that's the biggest issue with the reboot suit; making it entirely black was a huge mistake. Granted, a shiny silver robot is by no means stealthy or practical from a story perspective - but as has been pointed out many times before the reboot costume looks like any other sci-fi black battle suit. Two problems there: one, it's not supposed to look like a suit at all. And two, Robocop's appearance should be distinct and unmistakable. Generic sci-fi army trooper number 453 fails at both of those things.

The folds in the waist area... The "hand" looks like he's just not wearing a glove on one side. It's a major fail. Unless they are planning on CGI enhancing some of those practical pieces, I don't think I'll be convinced.

 

[CollectorGuy]

Looks like those stupid accelerator suits from GI Joe

Yeah pretty much. I can also add it looks like a black Metoroid suit and IronMan like suit *yuck*

 

[mazda-rx7]

Looks so lame and unoriginal. I hate the new look. Looks like a man in a suit. Suppose to be a cyborg. Looks like a low budget suit.

Wow, I just noticed the button on the back.....that is such an eyesore.

Anyone else bothered by it?
