Awesome shots Pete! I didn't realize you had the chair too.

Great shots man! This is exactly what I was saying a few posts before.

Looking at him under regular incandescent lights he does look very silver on the shelf, but picking him up and looking at him close in hand all the colors can be seen, funny enough like the movie suit looks different on film than it looks like in person the same can be said for the figure, it looks more like the movie when flash photography is used like here in my pictures.

Some will argue it should look like that in hand, but I say it can under the right lighting, like LED lights used in a lot of collectors detolfs. I'm not interesting in changing peoples minds about what they see in front of them, if you like it great, if not that's OK too. I love the figure an I'm glad to have it, that's good enough for me

I don't have the same issues with the paint that some do, considering the colors seen on film was achieved the using tricks and special filters along with rub downs in oil

Here is the write from the Robocop database



THE COLOR OF THE SUIT
The RoboCop suits was painted in a variety of ways on different films. The first and third suits were very gray, whereas the suit in 2 tended towards a very plasticy blue. The suit in RoboCoprime Directives is back to the original gray colour scheme (albeit seriously battle-damaged).

The RoboCop suits are more green than anything when seen in real life - they're painted with a special photoreactive paint that registers metallic on film.

That being the case I think Hot Toys did a nice job re-creating the look of the first suit, it may not be perfect but Like the movie suit it takes on a different look depending on lighting.

All I'm looking for is a chance to get the Robocop 2 figure as I think it would make for a stunning piece in the collection.

Yep. that's correct Skull. Exactly what I posted before regarding the color of the real suit in Robo 1 being "green-ish".

I am dying to have it, for me it looks perfect. The question is if after this one I will go for the BD + Murphy combo.

Its a beautiful figure, as for the two pack I think its a dream set, likely never to be seen again in any scale

Nice pics Skull! If only the flash didn't tan his face

Thanks, skin tome is slightly to tan but not annoyingly so

Awesome shots Pete! I didn't realize you had the chair too.

Thanks, yeah I got the set on release from Hong Kong,

Thanks, yup I'm happy with the effort hot toys put out with the paint, its a trick paint job to pull off and while its not perfect its still pretty damn nice.

I had them cancel an order of mine a couple of months ago. The credit card I used when I placed the pre-order had since expired, but instead of e-mailing me to let me know they actually called my home phone and left a voicemail. Unfortunately, I almost never check my home voicemail so I didn't get the message until about a week and half after they called. They ended up canceling my order and by the time I found out about all this the product I ordered had sold out. I don't mind them calling (that's actually pretty cool, just not useful in my case), but they REALLY should have sent an email as well. I definitely would have received the email and been able to give them my updated cc information. Long story short - check your voicemail. Maybe they called you instead of sending an email like they did in my case.

turns out this is exactly what happened

they called some old number I hadn't had on file in years for some reason

they also said they had to cancel the order because the card they had on file was expired yet they still somehow managed to charge me the cancellation fee

something fishy is going on here

Every pictures of the regular is so beautiful. But when I think of the BD version, I’m like….DAMN!! Looking so forward to it!

Sorry to hear about that, your Robo could very well be chilling out in LA.

This figure still gives me the warm and fuzzys after all these months having him, Looking forward to the Robocop/Murphy two pack but I've been really wanting the to see Hot Toys take a shot at Robocop 2 next. I know with timing being key to hot toys they likely won't drop that PO until stock on the BD version starts selling down, but I really would like the version 2 suit on the shelf, the colors really Pop in that movie.

Great pics, buddy! I do wish the figure looked the way it does in your pics in more forms of light, but it is what it is.

I want RoboCop 2 mainly for...isn't it obvious? RoboCain.

Perfect lighting Pete and your figure looks spectacular.

That would be cool, But I shudder at the thought of the price

Thanks DA, I'm confident now in my choice for FOTY and it is this Robocop in my book

Thanks! Those are my 80s Movie cyborg collection. I also have a BD T1 Hot Toys on the other side of it. Just need the BD Robocop "Murphy" figure and I'm complete....I think.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Great display! Something about Robo being flanked by two Terminators feels just right.

Great Addition Joe! AWESOME SETUP! I love the "about to draw the Auto -9 out" look along with the expression. It looks like a 3-d screencap!
