So sweet to have a choice: HT or Enterbay.
Can't wait to see Enterbay's ED209 _________________

I'm friends with Enterbay Bill on Facebook (the guy pretty much in charge of EB I assume) and the guy actually responds to fans quite often. Someone pushed for info on the Robo figure the other day and through broken English his response was essentially, and I'm paraphrasing, 'This will be the best Robo figure. Like no other. So it will take a little more time. You won't believe the functionality on this thing!'
So here's my 'functionality' wish list/ predictions:
Everything functional works just like in the movies.
The leg holster maybe with a hidden button kind of like NECA, an optional spring loaded data spike hand, helmet and chin guard removal( which seems impossible to get right judging by the Hot Toys version), Auto-9 with working slide and clip removal, and maybe a couple jars of exploding baby food?
Your thoughts?

My thought is:
there will never be a robocop figure with a removable helmet, that looks
the way it should.
It is just not possible, because the makeup of the unmasked head itself
is something like a helmet.
I have never had an enterbay figure, so I canīt say if they are cool or not,
but I have a Hot Toys Robocop and one Terminator and I think they both
suck big time. I opened them up, took them out, assembled, took apart,
back in the box and up to the attic forever. Maybe my grandkids can
appreciate this overpriced shit someday, because I can not.

I agree Fummelcop. I have the HT Robo and the R3 one w/jetpack and removable helmet/chinguard and though they do get an A for effort, it just doesn't work. Seperate heads is the way to go and I think EB did that with the Batman figure.
I've never had an enterbay figure either but I've seen some in-hand reviews on a few of them and it has me very pumped.

That sounds pretty good , I'm eagerly waiting for the first shot. HT is awfully quiet on the otherside. _________________

Yeah no kidding! Not a thing since the unpainted AniCom display. And no mention of Cain at said display. All these upcoming Robo figures coming out at the same time is very bittersweet for me. I want em all but I'm afraid I can only afford one and as much as I'm positive that HT will make a huge improvement over the last one, I think I'll go with Enterbay. Judging by their past work, I'd almost buy one sight unseen.

That's good news. So Battle damaged RoboCop with Weller likeness, but what about normal RoboCop? It won't have Weller likeness? If not I think it will be fail and fans won't be satisfied. Because as we all know, Weller is RoboCop and if it will have different face it would be shame.

I'm not sure how much (if any) of this is confirmed.
'Enterbay Bill' is the final word on all the details and what he's confirmed so far is that it will be part of the 1/4 scale HD Series, and it will be VERY functional. The only official images out there are the one showing a different figure in progress with the unpainted legs of the Robo in the background and the image of the Auto-9. Everything else (BD, Weller likeness, Cobra AC, ED-209) is just hearsay or speculation, even though I, myself, posted some of that hearsay. Although I can't imagine that, out of all the amazing figures EB has done, they'd decide to do Robo without Weller's likeness. They seem like the kind of company that wouldn't do a figure without it. Only time'll tell...

I'm skeptical here they really have'nt been forthcoming on this figure,I'd love more than just an auto 9 pic,Howbout a pic that really sets this piece apart from the rest..

^^I know right!^^
You'd think as much as they show off their in progress pics and as proud as they seem of the RoboCop one, they'd show us something. That pic of the legs is relatively old so it HAS to be close.
