I like the torso with battle damaged portrait. Any chance? I agree. No need to redo the Barton bust.

Sideshow never made a Robocop bust, that was Fred Barton who I mentioned in my first post. Sideshow just distributed for him. And the bust was a disaster, so much so that Fred dropped off the face of the earth afterward and shut down his website.

I would prefer a torso. I have the Barton bust and quite like it.

I'd like to do something larger scale Robocop, but if it's been done we aren't going to try to re-invent the wheel. The Barton bust looks pretty good. We thought that people would want a screen accurate ED-209 as well......

I think I'll stay away from pieces that have been done before, I want to do something unique that hasn't been done.

I'd totally do a 1-1, but only if Rob Bottin would be involved.

Agreed.

I had to make some repairs to mine and Barton blamed it all on fedex (which wasn't true. The bust was put together half-assed )

Chronicle could do so much better.

A 1:1 bust with removable head/neck pieces along with a battle-damaged variant.

I have been waiting since Chronicle made their presence known on here for a statue or bust of Robo himself. I wouldn't have the money nor the space for a 1-1 statue, though.

Personally (and I'm probably alone on this) I would love a 1/2 scale bust and battle damaged from the '87 film. Would be easier for me to display and easier on my wallet. A life size bust though as some on here are asking for, would be mighty tempting. Would just come down to price and overall size for me.

I get why the 1/6 Robocop statue was basically nixed, but it just seems odd to have made Cain and ED-209, yet no Robocop.

That one is made by fred, which only licensed to sell un US market. I think there are alot international robocop collector waiting for one.

I am looking for 1/2 robocop full statue as well.

Hope it won be too high, as US rate has raised so much recently

To get Paul all warmed up for an eventual Chronicle 1/1 Robocop bust or 1/1 FS statue release....
The following bust is a creation of an amazing French artist "JP Reuchet".... silicone face, glass eyes,eye-lashes.Removable helmet and jaw pieces.The bust should be finished in a couple of months.Enjoy.

I'm going to call our licensor today and see if anyone has the rights currently. 1/2 scale would be a possibility since we are currently doing a few 1/2 busts...
