MAFEX Robocop 1/12 scale

[Eukalyptus]

My 196 pack is due tomorrow fingers crossed. Will post pics with the first R2 if he does.

My figure arrived today even though it was only despatched on Monday!

Some quick shots.

I don't have the regular R2 release, but this release looks great and I think captures the blueish/purple hue the suit had in the film. Still wish it had the helmet and neck swaps.

The damaged torso is great too, but only the head and neck are movable.

Some quick shots of Roboblue with the original R2. It‘s not too bad of a difference. Even the damaged torso is another shade of blue

Man I love this line! Now gimme Battle Damaged ED-209, Robocain and CLARENCE!

 

[DiFabio]

Beautiful.

Looks terrific.

Got an arrival notification from BBTS and a shipped notification a couple of hours later. Just this guy, no T-800 yet.

 

[DEATHASYLUM]

Knocked it out of the park with those paint apps, especially Robo2

I just pulled out the box for my Battle Damaged Robo to switch out his Auto-9 for the Cobra cannon.

I'm looking all over the place and can't find the instructions. What the hell did I do with the instruction manual?

Then I realized....for some reason this guy didn't come with instructions. Right? Or am I crazy?

Not crazy, mine didn't include instructions either

Is the R3 Jetpack version any different than the R1 release in terms of quality? I'm looking to get just one of the Mafex and I'd prefer the R1 look and the newer R3 seems to fit the bill. Or should I just track down the R1 figure instead? Thanks!

 

[Eukalyptus]

R3 is basically the same if you can live without the battle damage parts of R1.

What Eukalyptus said.

 

[Jay Virtual]

Thanks guys! Yeah I don't mind not having the BD, I just want a higher end Robocop figure that doesn't give me the anxiety of breaking when I pose it.

The Mafex is a wonderful figure. The best price/accuracy ratio IMO.
If you’re not blocked on 1/6 scale and don’t want to spend 400$ for a figure with an inaccurate paint, the Mafex is the best option.

The RoboCop 2 paint looks a bit garish in daylight, I think that was better suited to the lighting in the movie. I like the more subtle look from the first movie more as an overall look. Might consider getting a loose Murphy head though, just so I can go for a final "Murphy." look if I ever feel the need.

So you basically want to make the R2 release with R1/3 colors?

My collection atm: I need some risers for the back rows, mainly for the shelves to declutter a bit. Had them on different shelves, but I dipped into Hiya, mainly for Cain.

There are just a few variants I want (mainly post police shootout battle damage with the helmet still on), but they‘re not possible atm as the Murphy head figures don‘t have removable chest plates. And I don‘t want to customize, just mix and match. Maybe I‘ll get another NECA chair station for the R2 Murphy and peel off the sleepy Robo sticker or replace it with another one.

(Btw I hate the lower torso joint on these, Mafex should have left the black portion static like the costume).

Depending on the final product, I will buy the Hiya 1/12 as well.

[Rondesmo]

Still amazed by this wonderful figure!

 

[Otomofan]

Oooff!! Mega ED-209 FAIL there buddy! Fix his left arm!!

 

[Eukalyptus]

Looks like Mezco‘s mud puddle isn‘t just for beating Mutants.
