Hiya Toys has unveiled their next addition to their growing Robocop 3.75″ scale figure line up. Previously, they have done standard and battle damaged versions of Robocop from the three original films. Today they have revealed that they will also be producing figures based on the reboot from 2014. Their first figure from that license is EM-208, the OmniCorp drones from the film. After the jump, you can check out the first preview image. We will update as more info is revealed.

Cool. Hope that means the 1.0 and 3.0 versions of Robocop are coming.
Are theses the only ones theyve shown so far
These are nice. The movie was just okay but I'd like to have 4 of these. Give us a 2014 ED-209 and the original 1987 ED-209.
Cain........please
Super weird choice to me, I guess some of you guys are interested but I don't know anyone else even talking about the remake.
These guys are okay if you're looking for semi-expensive generic army-builder robots. They can skip figures of the 2014 RoboCop, however. That dude sucked.

$30 for a 4-inch figure? GTFO.

He looks a little mouth-less :O
Nice. Fingers crossed for a figure of the 1.0 version.
Hiya's face sculpts have often been more on the eh side, especially compared to what Hasbro has been doing with the face printing tech. So I think it's smart to focus on so many characters where they can play to their strengths of intricacy & detail. This robocop and the EM-208 figures look really good, i hope the articulation is as good as it could be. I think they can take advantage of the robot bodies to insert more clever joints. I'll def pick up the EM-208s as they'll be good generic robo-minions.
He looks... soft. Like he’s made out of foam or something
I just don't see the reasoning for making these. Maybe if they'd made them back when the movie came out? Or released them closer to the new Robocop Returns movie so there was some interest! As it stands though I can't see these selling very well

Robocop is still a recognizable name. I wish these figures were in the 6 to 7 inch range but then that wouldn't be Hiya. It would certainly help the detail.
Now to rant
For this film why did they think going to the all black suit was the smart play?
His first suit should have been the black with silver/chrome being the upgrade. What were the filmmakers obligated not to use the chrome design for the bulk of the film?
Then the human hand........why? I could get behind there being more of his body left. In the original film even his face is a recreation or just a flesh mask. It would have been fine if he wore a glove at least.

The black suit was supposed to be the edgy cool look the studio wanted.

But yeah studios. Oh yeah let's take this visually distinct look and make it ALL Black. Yep that's the Robocop we all know.
So these bad boys are $19.99 for well articulated, well designed, well sculpted and well painted with accessories while the Super7 Robocop 5 POA POS figures are $18.00?
This why I don't understand Super7 and never will.
Gotta wait till next feb for this.....jeesh.
