I've been waiting for an accurate replica of ED-209 since i was 10 years old.
Glad i have it on order.

does the dome look like metal mesh now or i just see what i hope to see?
crap. i hoped for a second. well plastic still is absolutely acceptable compared to rubber )Can't tell if youre trolling or not It looks like thin plastic like the koto model i have.
I was thinking the same thing. For the film, a miniature set was built for the staircase scene. For me, that would be a good (and BIG) diorama, showing ED at the top of the stairs with his new improved toes flexed down, and the BD Robocop at the bottom of the lower set of stairs looking up at ED, as Robo prepares to escape through the lower exit.I actually think a diorama background would be very cool with this guy.
I'm not into the cardboard, fold out backgrounds (like DX 11 Joker or Mime Joker) but a background for ED might be really cool. Especially when I consider the fact that they had a background scene to do all the stop motion effects for him. It'd make it more authentic.
I *LOVE* that upper left shot of him standing at a bit of an angle. It really conveys the motion of the puppet IMO. I'll definitely have him positioned in a similar stance in my curio.
The proto shots of Robo an ED are excellent. I don't think there was a dud in the whole lot. Whereas I think even the DX13 had some not-so-flattering shots.
Hot Toys is one of the only companies who production pieces often look even better than their prototypes.
The prototype Superman to the in hand figure was night and day.
I always thought the proto was Reeve-esque. I wouldn't say it looked ''nothing'' like him. But yeah the final product was better. Likewise DX10
