Yeah I'm getting one. I'll have to paint that hand or something though.

It looks like a great update of the orininal. The all black look is just visually boring IMO.

Yeah the silver and black figure looks great and very Robocop to me...minus that human HAND thing which some black paint will fix but the solid black painted figure is very boring to me. I may get a 6 inch silver and black Robo and maybe a 4 inch figure but that's about it.

I'll definitely be getting the 4inch Robocop figures. They'll look nice alongside Movie GI Joes and SHIELD.
Definitely going to repaint that hand though too. It just looks wrong still. I really don't get why they didn't at least give him a glove he could remove. It'd add more to the dramatic effect of shaking hands of bystanders etc as the pulling off the glove would evoke that "I'm human underneath all this" even if it's just an illusion. |

I need to see these posed to the extent of their abilities, that's the make or break for me. The 6" figure sounds underwhelming. Just that much articulation?

I don't mind that though. If I want a super articulated version, there will be plenty of alternatives (Play Arts Kai, Super Alloy, etc.). But for, what is likely to be, a much more affordable figure, this one looks pretty solid. Especially for a company that doesn't seem to have many previous action figure releases.

I'm down for the Black and Silver 4" figures.
This gives me something to look forward to while Joe is in cryofreeze, MU is rebranding, Cap America and Spidey movie figures are garbage, and Star Wars is just plain boring through 3 waves. The lack of future prospects was starting to push me into the 6" world so this will come at a good time. 9 points of articulation is pretty good for a company with little to no action figure experience. |

I'm kind of looking forward to the Black ones as RoboSwats commanded by a silver one. xD At least that's how I'm going to put them on my SHIELD/Joe shelf.

That'd be cool. I was thinking of using the black one as a bad Robo.

I used to be a big fan of Play Arts Kai, but their quality control issues turned me away. Super Alloy, I don't really see myself buying. Maybe Tamashii will make a Figuarts Robocop and I'll bite.

Resources, expected sales and production budget will always dictate how much articulation a figure will have. Scale isn't the sole factor. The toys you named are all from the two of the top three toy companies, which garner larger budgets and larger production runs with more exposure in toy aisles.
I can't imagine Jada toys has the budget even close to what those guys do, especially when comparing this to Star Wars, Marvel and DC toys. From the look at these pics, it's clear they put focus on a detailed sculpt. More articulation will result in a more expensive to produce figure. I can definitely understand why these figures are the way they are.

Every time I see pictures of this new Robo all I can think of is how much I really hate that human hand...

We got a brief glimpse of Robocop 2.0 design back in July. Right now, that's the only pic available of the 2.0 figure.
