The 3.0 version badly missed the mark though in every way. It just wasn't anything special to look at...if you could figure out what you were looking at. The black design hid all of the details and the films lighting did it no favors.

There was curiosity as to how Neil Blomkamp's vision would turn out for the upcoming reboot/sequel, but I don't really have a whole bunch of optimism in that. While I enjoy his use of practical effects and some of his filming techniques, his name is kinda tossed out there for every sci fi property needing a reboot and he's somewhat of a flake (he's already off the reboot film he was "so pumped" to be working on.) Consider my enthusiasm officially curbed.

Great for all the 3.75 collectors, but if you don't care about scale, and want the end all Robocop figure and don't wanna drop for the Hot Toys...seriously...put up the extra money and grab any of the Mafex ones. They are all that good.
