I'm thinking this is looking good as well....but I have been fooled by trailers before.

Why do I keep thinking of crab cakes whenever I look at the new ED?

Just a tad over-designed, IMO.

That said, if Neca made one the same size of their original ED-209, I'd buy one to place beside it.

Will it be a toy or a model kit? I'd buy that for a dollar!

It's from threezero so it'll be a toy, it'll be very big, and very expensive.

Maybe it's just the angle in which it was photographed, but it actually looks...adorable. :huh:

The original ED-209 was always adorable looking. The new one needs to lookd adorable too in order to a be a worthy update.

To be fair, Robocop's 1.0 body armor motif looks pretty good. According to the gashapopn ad above, there's a 1.0 and 3.0 styling and so the obvious question is... What does the 2.0 version look like?

Wait, wait. I got this...

...

...

The designers momentarily consider an all-gold titanium body armor motif! :lol

lol i saw your post on youtube as well. the comments section is most enjoyable. quote: "it reminds me of Robocop but i'm not sure."

Not surprised, as this has happened with the real RoboCop back in the '80s.

God.......I remember that. but honestly I never tied that to being Robocop. Not like Mac n Me was a dumbed down ET variant. Or Atlantic Rim is clearly a knock off of Pacific Rim, etc etc.

Why isn't anyone aiming for than unarmored hand?

It looks like in addition to the 3A ED-209 they are also producing a line of actual RoboCop figures;

Add those to the Square Enix Play Arts line and other toy makers there will be a crap ton of merchandise for this movie (but yet we can't get any decent Jaegers from Pacific Rim in toy form :p ).

Exactly what I've been thinking!!!

Bah. The awesome thing about ED-209 was that it was so over-powered, with a ridiculous design flaw. Robocop shouldn't be able to stand up to one, let alone several, unless he's on the stairs.

Meh, I'll still probably watch it. Looks like a cheesy popcorn action flick, but there was never any chance that it was going to be the classic that the original was.

On that note, how come no one's making a video game for this (short of the iPhone game)? The material seems prime for a passably-entertaining shooter.
