Robocop 2 is a very watchable action movie. I wouldn't call it great because that's reserved for the classics such as the first one and movies like terminator 1 & 2, aliens, platoon, pulp fiction etc. I rewatched it recently though and I felt it wasn't as great as I once thought because I found it dragging a little in the middle. Its a good sequel nonetheless and its definetly the cain sequences that steal the show. I would love to see a Robocop 2 figure being made by ht because I love the blue hue and improvements made to the suit. It goes without saying that a cain figure would also be very much appreciated by all so hopefully ht will do something about it. I have a feeling we may hear an announcement about cain after the bd version of murphy comes out.

Forget about the movies. In your own display case at home. Look at that empty spot and say to yourself "if I can display one Robocop there how would I like it to look?" The ideal display of a Robocop figure for me would be unmasked, non battle damaged, with a alternative helmeted head, displayed right next to it in the colour of the preview pictures from HT's. Taking everything I love from the Robocop movies this is how I would like to represent in my home.

Forget about the 2nd & 3rd movies, TV show & remake.

Fixed.

Different day, different photo, still looks righteous.

And Good Golly, Miss Molly, the head/neck even twists to the side! Don't recall seeing that before!

But HT, if you could please fix the shoulder rings, I'd be forever in your debt.

All u would have to do is break the far left one yourself though, should be an easy fix.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

And the rings on the left shoulder should be angled toward each other. But I'd rather let the experts do it.

I would love if the cam with alternative BD helmet and drill. As good as this is (and I will be buying) it would feel incomplete without them.

 

[holtrax]

I don't think there's any need to break off the shoulder ring really. Its a minor detail really and doesn't effect how great the figure looks. Having said that it is an easy fix with a dremel with a rotary tool on the end.

 

[a-dev]

It is indeed an easy enough fix I imagine but many people don't like messing with their stock figures in such ways and so it'd be nicer if HT would notice this detail in the first place.

Those new pics from the CICF look incredible. That facial sculp is easily the best I've ever seen of any character. I know there's no hair which makes it easier as hair is always difficult to reproduce but this is just an incredible sculpt. People I've shown it to think it's a still from the film. Peter Weller must have taken 0.003 seconds to give this his approval.

Agreed, the facial sculpt is superb. Worth the price of the figure alone. Definitely my most anticipated figure of 2015.

let me remind you as beautiful as this figure is it is still Hot Toys!

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Well, cool - glad the head turns.

RoboMurphy.

That is all.

This. I don't customize because A) I know I would suck at it and B) the very thought of taking a sharp tool or blunt object to a $300 figure is, to me, akin to this:

Yeah I can't imagine it being easy to cut that little piece off at the right angle so it is accurate to the movie without accidentally scratching/damaging the parts around it.
