"Discovered on popular Japanese toy retailer Blister is what appears to be the first image of NECA's upcoming and rumored Battle Damage Robocop. The figure is similar to the regular 7" Robocop that was released last year. Not much else is known, but the site does list its availability at being around June 2012."
"Rumor wise, there’s also been talks of a Helmetless Peter Weller Robocop and a Helmetless Battle Damage Robocop."

Dammnit, why the hell did I buy the regular 7"??? This looks so much more badass! Ah, well I still got my 12" McFarlane to fulfill my battle-damaged needs.

I would go for one without a helmet.
I just hope the face looks good.

Well, I only have a McFarlane regular robocop, I didn't have the luck to see any battledamaged edition in the store.
But I think it would be good to see another version of battle damage.
about the helmet, I believe it is hard to create the face to perfection, but we must wait and see _________________

If someone says, battle damaged Robocop, I imagine the scene from steel mill aftre the fight with ED 209 . .and Robo without his helmet so this is the ways how a really good figure of battle damage Robocop should look .
If they will do just something what is in that picture and again the same 7 inch, nothing so extra, I and many of us can to do the same damege and coloring with a 7 inch figure.
anyway nice news.

Looks like they included the exposed eye. That's pretty cool. I'm sure I'll buy one because they're relatively cheap and it's..ROBOCOP. Still more excited about a helmet less version. NECA needs to step it up on quality though. I compared about eight or so of the 7" versions at Toys R US recently and every one of them were different. Some had terrible paint jobs and some were ok.

I agree with what someone on assbook said about it, looks more "dirty" than battle damaged. _________________ All of humanity is of my creation.

Randy confirmed that NECA do not have rights for Weller likeness. They indeed made proto of damaged unhelmeted Robo but it will not be put in retail due to likeness problem.
Also this BD Robo is a whole new sculpt. Check belly area for example.
It will be sold in 25th anniversary packaging.

Go.
Away.
I quite like it. My problem with the McFarlane one is that the chest and helmet are damaged but the arms and legs are not, it sort of looks a little odd.
If they make the colours on the damage closer to the film (not just brown) and don't fuck up the paint job I'd buy this.
And now the obligatory RoboCop line:- I'd but that for a dollar.

Deus Ex Robo : | I agree with what someone on assbook said about it, looks more "dirty" than battle damaged. |
If we remember the first movie, he also looked a little dirty, maybe from the Oil that came out of the bullet holes and the dirty water in the last fighting scene with Bodicker.
I always wanted a cracked opened Helmet, but they never created that kind of battle damage effect _________________

Yeah true, but if you're gonna call it a battle damage model, I wanna see something a little more destroyed. This one is more like what would happen if the guys from the Hangover left him on te roof of a Las Vegas hotel.

I think what would be interesting to see and what they should also do is a regular Murphy figure when he was just a cop and one of him being shot up, it would be like the robocop figures one regular and one battle damaged.
