Re: Hot Toys, "RoboCop (Battle Damaged Ver) & Alex Murphy Collectible Figures Set
I'm just saying that through 1989 none of those four had bad sequels. Then 1990 came with Predator 2 and RoboCop 2. Then T2 which was good and Alien 3 which was an okay sci-fi movie but bad follow-up to ALIENS. Its just amazing to think back that there was a time (1987, 1988, and 1989) when ALL THERE WAS was T1, Alien and ALIENS, RoboCop and Predator from their respective franchises.
That was before the Dark Times...before the 90's....

at least, unlike P1, it was about a predator and not about annoying rambos
P2 >>> P1

ALIENS, like T2, was good but not as a sequel. Absolutely different from the original - blockbusterized, full of plot holes and very questionable visual decisions. On the other hand PREDATOR_2 and ALIEN_3 were cheap but solid sequels.
Sorry Khev, your logic is flawed

Nope, I specifically stated I was referring to R-rated 80's action/sci-fi. ALIENS relation to ALIEN doesn't matter, it was classic 80's sci-fi action with no subpar follow-up.

Robocop 2 isn't all that bad either in my opinion. Definitely not as good as the first one but I still enjoyed it. The third film is when the series really went to crap in my opinion.

Man, now I'm starting to feel like Wor-Gar shaking my head in a roomful of 90's kids.

RoboCop 2 is actually my favorite of the "90's sequels" and is the only one I actually own on blu-ray (sorry T2 fans.)

hahahaha! well it does depend entirely on the price, but this is worth a fair wack of cash IF it looks like it does here when it's finished. Besides, we probably have the next half a decade to save up.

All of those movies had great sequels. It's the sequels that followed those that make me want to puke.

Ok, lets not turn this into a "film vs. film", "original vs. sequel" thread just 6 pages in.
Look at this, LOOK at this!
I haven't been this excited for a Hot Toys release since DX 09 Keaton Batman, DX 08 Joker and Tech Noir Terminator. It's going to be a long wait.
This character is pretty definitive I reckon. There's no need to ever revisit him again in collectible/toy form.

Man that is going to look awesome on the shelf. Never thought I would be able to throw up Alex up on the shelf in his police uniform.

Where's Murphy's snazzy shirt? Will not buy!
Where' his square coffee cup? Will not buy!
JK, first day PO for me! I never thought we'd ever get an Alex Friggin' Murphy. SMH. Best $500+ you'll ever spend, at least with your clothes on.
Role models can be very important to a boy.
He's got his Cooper Winnwell hockey helmet and the correct guns in each hand. I could cry....

Technically one of those pistols actually belongs to Officer Lewis. Maybe they're creating a build-a-figure one accessory at a time.
