Is murphy a slim body or a narrow shoulder? I was told it was a narrow shoulder torso with slim arms but it's hard to tell from the photos. Also, are the hands smaller than normal hot toys hands which are oversized?

I first saw Robocop when i was ten years old, and i *never* before saw the similarities between Murphy's body armour and Robocop's body before. Never realised how similar they look.
Thanks for posting that pic!

Thank you Glad you liked it

Fantastic pictures and display, Solaire! Enjoyed seeing those.

And Username, good point. Never noticed that either but the armour seems clearly modelled on the tactical gear. Cool to see something new like that after all these years. Now I'm almost regretting not picking-up Murphy (but space is tight, so not quite).

Thanks mate [emoji16]

I know. I am amazed myself at seeing what was clearly an intentional design choice that i never picked up on before now.

I never noticed it either but I'm sure I'll never be able to stop noticing it when I watch the movie now.

To be fair, we never see the pic above in the movie(For obvious reasons), of Murphy standing next to Robocop. Even though we *might* see Robocop next to other cops with that vest on, we wouldn't draw the similarities together.
I love being able to see something new in the design after all these years.

Enjoy buddy, the set does not disappoint, some of HT's best work, BTW did you ever decide on a camera, if so post some shots

That sounds great, Kid! Don't forget to tell us what you think.

Overly impressed!!!! I'm definitely joining the FOTY camp. The only very close second in my book for FOTY would be the Mark 43, but this is notch above everything else that comes to mind for 2015.

It's not just the killer likeness & realism or the fine details, but it's also really well constructed. Nice tight joints and despite not being diecast it still has good heft. Glad I went for the 2-pack because Murphy is a great figure too.

Pete, the camera hunt fell on the back-burner as did most other things the last couple of months. Where I left off was it was a toss up between the Nikon D5200 or the Cannon equivalent (I forget the model name). Since I stopped looking I think there's a 5500 now. If that's significantly better I'll probably go with that. I'm gonna grab something after the weekend. Long overdue because I'm sick of taking crappy pics

Is murphy a slim body or a narrow shoulder? I was told it was a narrow shoulder torso with slim arms but it's hard to tell from the photos. Also, are the hands smaller than normal hot toys hands which are oversized?

It's a complete Frankenstein of both the Slim and the Narrow. It has Narrow legs, shoulders and bicep/triceps with the Slim's torso. The forearms aren't used in any of the boxed TTMs. They are used on other releases like Coulson & Redskull but they are painted for Murphy.

I took this pic a while ago to compare the Narrow, Slim, Bruce Lee and some hybrids. From left to right it's the Bruce Lee, TTM09 Slim, Red Skull, Coulson, TTM18 Narrow.





Here's the Slim compared to the Red Skull which is the same formula as Murphy from the waist up






The hands are the same oversized scale as most other HT. They're all from old molds that we've seen a ton of times. The only new unique hand is the gun twirling and that is as large as the rest of them.

New shelf, at my new place, only mirrored from my old set up, but completely new shelf.

Love how that turned out:

Great display Endo . All 4 of these pieces are great despite the finish on clean Robo and the issues some had with ED. My ED is still in tip-top shape thank God

I'm digging him to death and can't get enough of looking at him. More than happy to be part of the club

Is this the first time HT gave us decals that we have to apply ourselves? Can't remember another set where everything wasn't applied already. Struck me a little weird that they couldn't do that themselves but I guess it makes it easier to get better custom labels....

Re: Hot Toys "RoboCop (Battle Damaged Ver) & Alex Murphy Collectible Figures Set

.... so are you selling these?

Funny, I was just about to post about the jars of baby food.
I knew they were 'off' somehow, so I researched it. The boy pictured on the HT stickers is a different boy, with a different facial expression, and the arrangement of the text is not film-accurate either. I looked at the bluray, and reconstructed the jar stickers to be much more film-accurate, including the text, and the two blue and one pink versions seen in the movie. (HT only gives us the blue version, and they're pretty bad; grainy, low-resolution, and not accurate at all.)

By the way- for those who don't know, I'm the guy who created the replacement upgrades for the ED-209 decals.
I'll be printing these sticker upgrades on paper peel-and-stick, or maybe very thin vinyl. Check out the comparison photos below, and tell me what you think-- feel free to pm me.
First, the Hot Toys stickers:

Thx, PCK.
That´s my second, an exchange and he´s good cause I applied Liqui Moly, a german car rubber care product.
A rub over all pieces every 2 months and he´s good.
Unpacked him yesterday and nothing. Really happy.

Amazon has the set for $356 shipped from a Japan seller, that sounds like a great deal probably as good as spooktacular. I might jump on that.

I lost out on that deal
Best current deal on Amazon is $358 with $37 in shipping
I've got $50 in gift cards and will wait for it to drop another $40 or so


Nice pics fellas, making holding out all the more difficult
