Why isn't RoboCain being made in 1/6 scale?

Because HT have the license and they aren't going to do a god damn thing.

RoboCop 2 Cain - Chronicle Collectibles - Legacy Series

Well... $1300 is a bit too much to pay.

I was thinking exactly this last night. Along with ED, both my favourite movie robots. The Chronicles version looks insaaaanely good but I just can't bring myself to pay the price they're asking. HotToys needs to get on this, didn't they tease us with a picture years ago?

candyman made one from scratch...in 1:6 scale.

and its been like 3 years since HT teased us with robocain.

ironman repaints killed this line.lolz

I'd love to get an ht robocain to gk along with my robocop. Maybe they want to see how well their robocop is gonna sell before making cain. I'm certain they already have a prototype ready if they have the license to it.

Would love a smaller scale version of Robocain. Not sure if I can afford a 1:6 high end version.

It also likely isn't in scale with the Hot Toys Robocop anyway. Their ED-209 is noticeably smaller than the HT version.

Hmm, why didn't they stick to the 1/6 scale?

Because it's the same size as the original puppet used for the movie or so I heard. It looks good but the price and lack of articulation makes it an easy pass.

Ah, I see.

The CC Cain is true 1:6 - there are pics of it with the HT Robo out there...

The ED-209 is 1:6 in that it is the scale the FX puppets were built in for the film. This is a direct reproduction of that. Now... how that scale was represented in the film is up for debate.

Crying inside that we haven't seen or heard anything of this yet.

I dunno im not holding out much hope for ht cain anymore. Maybe its just too complex for them to design but seeing the recent rhino figure from the amazing spiderman 2 if anyone 'could' do it it would be ht. I think though if they were going to do it they would have already done it.

 

[kairus]

for some reason im still haven't given up on a hot toys Cain. maybey some day. just got my ED209 this week and its beuatyfull!

Shame Figma got the Robocop license and not Bandai. I could very easily see them doing 1:12 Chogokins of ED-209 and Robocain to go along with Robocop Figuarts releases if they had the rights.
