Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

Here's a few pics of the spring loaded holster Robocop.

First of all, the head is messed up with a scratch on the top of the helmet, damage to near the visor, and damage to the back of the helmet on mines! Apologies for the bad pictures! My brother borrowed my Android so I'm stuck using a cellphone camera!

The holster feature is nice! It reminds me of the Hot Toys version (which I have but stored away). You already seen pictures and videos of it on this forum so I don't need to show it.

In terms of flexibility, I'll compare it to the McFarlane's version-

NECA (left) could squat down better because the ankles have a better range of movement.

Here's a closer look at the ankles. NECA is on the left while McFarlane's is on the right.
(I noticed the pin came off the piston in this picture. That happens to anything with pins/pistons! You should see McFarlane's Endoskeleton!)

NECA (bottom) has a ball jointed upper abdomen so Robo could do a gymnastics bridge. McFarlane's a stiff in the upper abdomen but has a swivel waist (like NECA has)

NECA's Robo (left) could spread his arms and legs for a wider stance than McFarlane's (right).

NECA's Robo (left) could bring his arms in closer but still can't hold onto a small steering wheel.

Here's a few size comparisons -

McFarlane's Robocop (left), NECA's T-800 (middle), and NECA's Robocop (right)

From left to right- NECA's T-1000, NECA's Robocop, McFarlane's Robocop (behind Endoskeleton), and NECA's T-800 BD Endoskeleton.

From Left to right- NECA's Robocop, McFarlane's Robocop, NECA's Friday the 13th Jason, NECA's Classic Predator, and NECA's Prometheus Engineer. There are Aliens in the background!

Cool collection you got there! Thanks for sharing! :clap
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

I have some similar rough paint on one section of Robo's helmet, but it is relatively minor and unsurprising given the inconsistency of most of Neca's figures, in regards to the paint apps.

Still a great figure overall, though.
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

Got mine today along with the BD version. Paintjob seems a bit flat, I thought I heard it was better than this. Oh well, no mess at least. Excellent sculpts and articulation though. Certainly the best Robocops I've owned.
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

I just got the NECA 7" spring-activated leg-holster robocop from TRU. Gotta say the sculpt is much improved from previous version by NECA. I noticed another sculptor redid the figure, and it shows much closer to movie-accuracy. I wonder how it compares with the Mcfarlane version... one minor thing is with this version the head is still a bit narrow.

I took 3 pictures to show how much better it is now.

Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

Excellent shots there^ Its a great figure, the best toy sculpt we've ever gotten.
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

Why Neca don't want to relese the new Robo in 1/4? I am sure there are many fans out there who want to buy it.
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

The older one is probably as good as its going to get paint-wise so no I'd rather look to high-end at this point.
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

If I remember correctly Enterbay is doing one so I will keep my eyes open.
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

The last thing they did was show the gun to remind us they're still doing it.

By the way LOL that this thread, with its particular title, has become the default NECA Robocop discussion thread.

Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

Dear Neca.

I take it back. I eat my words. All the mean stuff I said in the first post. You've proven me wrong.

ED 209!!!!!!!
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

Is that a prototype or will it actually be scaled down? Looks good.
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

The Rambo is a 2-up prototype. Which is around 12" tall.
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

Thats what I thought lol. i was just about to edit my post, thanks!
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

Oh mein Gott!!

Looks like it says September for ED-209.
 
Re: NECA's RoboCop is a total bust

Just when I think I'm done with NECA they pull me back in!

I've waited for an ED-209 since I first bought my McFarlane Robocop wow that was many years ago. I'll be picking this baby up!

You should pick up the Neca RoboCop figure, it blows away that brittle stylized POS McFarlane figure.
