I hope it sells enough to convince CC that a Robocop statue is viable.

Yeah, I'm in for this. Like the 1/2 bust format a lot.

The visor might be too thick, I'm not sure. That picture kind of looks bad, like it's unnaturally stretching his head upwards. The official pics don't look that thick, nor does the R v T shots by Isa. But even the official good pics come off a fraction or five too thick if you compare movie shots to it.

I learned quick though that there's a difference between movie shots and props soooo it is whatever it is. It's not comically oversized so I'll take one

For most people it's probably nitpicking but as a true RoboCop fan it's something that can't be unseen.
I hope this can be corrected in the production.

I did my best with my "paint skills" to show the difference :






Also :
Is translucent resin for Murphy's skin still a consideration? I've read a post from PCS Jerry that even his RoboCop statue has translucent resin skin.

Does the head swivel?

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Regarding the visor, when the resin castings were made I fear that our guys may have sanded them a little to much cleaning out the visor area. The original print lines up with direct photo overlays from the film. We will be sending the original prints to the factory for production.

We worked with some very knowledgable people regarding Robocop to get this one 100%.

There are details in the neck area that you can't even see on film that we put into the bust.

It's selling well, we'll need to see how it goes after 30 days to see if we will be producing more from Robocop.

Thanks Paul, that was my only concern.. glad to hear that it will be corrected before it goes into production.
