It looks good, I like the storage for accessories in the figure stand base. I just don't think this is going to replace my Mafex Robocop so unless I can get this on sale I will probably pass on this.

I don't really understand why you'd want this if you have the MAFEX. Am I missing something?

Looks pretty good overall; you're a huge Robocop fan right Joe? What do you think?

Murphy and ED are getting some love this year and it's awesome.

The Moderoid ED is a huge surprise. If it's similar to their Escaflowne kit, it will probably be a solid, but simple, build with some pre-painted items for some of the wiring detail.

The joints look interesting for Robo as do the accessories, but like others have said... Is this warranted after the Mafex releases?
If it's as good as the Hagane Works Demonbane figure I have, it is for me.

A combo pack would be pretty sweet.

I also noticed the second to last image has "Relese."

As others have mentioned, a bit redundant after the Mafex figures.

Looks pretty good but Good Smile coming in a bit late and with a slightly more expensive version (Ninja Batman comes to mind). Diecast is goods, but as everyone said there are 3 MAFEX versions, though this looks more for the first Robocop movie. Think everyone would jump on if they had a decent Weller facesculpt underneath. Storage is good idea but would have loved to see an Octagon OCP shaped base/stand (Hot Toys didnt do that I think) and hands are enough though I think MAFEX gave a bit more.
Last thought, may need to see a review or in person when it comes out, but those lips?

Wait, are these models that we have to assemble, or are they figures?

The Robocop is a figure and ED 209 is a model kit.

Mafex had really soft paint.

I purchased from BBTS and the entire Robocop head, still sealed in package mind you, had been scratched right down the middle just from moving around in the package. I used to have pictures from when I had to return the figure but it was insanely disappointing, especially after how long I waited after the preorder.

I'm in for 1 of these.

I’m probably going to try and get this, simply to see how it compares to the MAFEX versions. The armor looks more matte here, and I’m just a sucker for a good looking Robocop figure.

Will the usual suspects be offering the RoboCop as a preorder for the USA, or do we have to make other arrangements?

I'm thinking you'll be able to get it from most online retailers. Japanese sites will likely have it posted about the same time, with BBTS and others following soon after.

It’s not painted correctly. He actually isn’t just silver.

Good point. He's got that blueish purplish prism effect all over his armor. NECA did a pretty good job with it.

I chose to preorder RoboCop from Hobby Link Japan. Maybe the shading on his armor will be added sometime before release. It'll be interesting to see a final production figure.
