I got this info from tomopop.com



Max Factory's RoboCop figma still looks amazing - TOMOPOP - COLLECTIBLE TOY CULTURE - Vinyl toys, Papercraft, Garage kits, Gamer toys, Japanese toys, robots, movie toys, and more.

Robocop will come with 2 Version's of his Auto 9 pistol, (one Normal the other in shooting mode)
He will also have a alternate leg with open Thigh holster (however from what I can tell it looks like it may not be an alternate leg, because it shows the leg holster both opened & Closed. I could be wrong)
& Alternate right hand with the Data Spike, As well as a battle damaged head.

From the look of things this may become the ULTIMATE Robocop Figure.
(Still hoping we get a Helmet less alternative head, that would put it over the top for me)

Ya know, looking at this and then the 7 inch NECA figure, there really is NO comparison. This figure looks like it wins hands down (detail wise anyway)

From what I know August or September.
I'd think HLJ & BBTS would be the obvious places to order from.

I think you mean the McFarlane Movie Maniacs version, but yeah, I'd have to agree with you. I love that one and this one here looks so much nicer.

Wow. I like NECA's stuff but that Robocop looks kind of crappy. McFarlane's version is better.

But the Figma beats them both.

Excellent quality overall in terms of sculpt and articulation.
Plastic is usually very soft and can break easily. It won't be sturdy like a regular toy. These are more adult display pieces. Small details like the pistons on the back of his legs can break easily if you're not careful. I have had Figmas break on me before. Figma black rock shooter snapped in half at the waist while I was trying to get the plastic off the figure. No joke.
Paint apps is usually top notch. Articulation is awesome. Despite the faults these are beautiful toys and this is a must buy. You will like it. Best place to buy from is amiami's English site. About 31 usd plus shipping. Shipping is usually 10 for slowest and about 15 for fastest.

I'm a huge Robocop fan, and this looks incredible. I love the leg hostler.

How tall is this figure going to be?

Is the Plastic like the kind Revoltech Uses or Softer?
Here's hoping they use some sturdier plastic (especially considering the High Price Tag).
Even though I don't intend to ''play'' with it, I certainly don't want it breaking on me while trying to pose him or even just taking him out of the package!

Depends on the figure and the body part. Usually it's a combination of plastics. However, some pieces are softer than revoltechs. Hard plastic with very soft and malleable bits. Chances are robocop will be mostly harder material. Honestly, I'm surprised this is a Figma. Though they have done some male toys, robocop was something I didn't expect.

Dude I hope you're right.
I'd hate for this bad boy to break on me.
For the price I'm going to be paying I really HOPE it's a sturdier type of Plastic.

Same here, I figured Revoltech would have done Robo before Figma did.
Maybe this is the start of Figma expanding it's base?
Because I'd really love to get me an ED-209 And RoboCain figures in the same scale.
Question?
Why do you think they didn't included a Mask less head for this figure instead of a Battle Damaged Helmet? Do they just not have the likeness rights to Peter Weller?

Guys, I just thought of something.
Think we might see some TERMINATOR figures from Figma next?
