Heading up to the Comicon panel, we have finally got some activity from the Omnicorp site. Check it out for info on products like ED-209 and the EM-280 Drone as well as the new gun and bike. Info on the RC-2000, RoboCop himself, is still left hidden however.
http://www.omnicorp.com/
Be sure and click the MENU button.

Wow...I have to admit I’m getting pretty excited about it, what an improvement since they first launched it, the worker next to ED is pretty funny and the other civilians are cracking me up. Though they kept the basic concept of ED, it’s a little too busy for me. The details on each product is really cool...I can't wait until we get a teaser trailer and some official pics!

ED-209 design has been re-worked to address what people complained about: too much random shit hanging off it. It's now a more sleak, more simple design, much more similar to the one from the original film. I really like the change, it's WAY better than what they showed before. Too bad it's too late for them to change the Robo suit, but at least we got SOMETHING for all our whining.

The sound bites on the website from Raymond Sellars would make a fantastic teaser campaign. Imagine seeing him speaking his short motivational speech to camera, before he grins and we jump to a black screen with "Feb 2014" on it. They could have another few characters from the movie doing something similar. A great way to introduce the characters and give an idea of the film. _________________

Sound bites?? I guess I can't access that on the mobile site. I'll have to wait til I get home. Sounds interesting.

Sorry, not sound bites, I meant the little written paragraphs dotted about the site. There's no sound on there. But if they had the actors making these little 15 second teasers and had them on TV and in cinemas over the next few months it would be a great campaign for the movie. Well, I think so anyway! _________________

Oh I see what you mean. Yeah I think that'd be an effective viral campaign. Especially if they didn't mention RoboCop, just OMNICORP.

I agree with CAIN about the ED, its kinda weak. Sure I understand going for more sleek and less exposed hardware but I think they may have taken a few more liberties than I care for here, much like the new suit. I don't hate it though, it's alright. Just feel that it probably could have been better. I would like to keep an open mind and see it in action though before I get too worked up.
That said, I love the site setup and look - all those menacing military-type products next to the smiling stock models is a real hoot. I agree with Archive that some parts of it look sketchy but I agree that it is probably that way on purpose.
For the most part, the site has some of that absurd satirical tone reminiscent of the original, and I'm happy and proud of that - I hope this is a good indicator for the movie. I look forward to more. _________________ I don't wanna pay that, PhotoBucket. Now maybe you haven't heard, but I'm the guy in old Archive. So hows about you just shit snow for a year and I'll figure out something else. Sayonara!

The context is real nice indeed, but i think the site is amateurish. They haven't done this because they wanted, i think they were in a rush for Comic-Con and it is the best they could arrange for the time.
I like the materials anyways and i hope to see a better "final" treatment soon.
GO ROBO!

Can't say i loved the website itself..
The chinese wall, a non chinese couple and a XT-908 !?
Ed-208 sitting beside a smiley farmer in a pitoresque farm landscape !?
While i see the irony i don't think those things belong in the same place.. Looks like they've crossed the line between dark humor and bizarreness.
Also the website could have been more 'corporate' too..
Leaving that aside the product line looks really good in those pics, specially Ed-209 in the beige paint and the taser gun.

Wow, that's a great update. The best is the pic of EM-208 next to an old lady with groceries A lot of new info and pics, finally getting a real taste of what this movie is gonna be like, and what it's gonna be like is PG-13 as evidenced by the non-lethal Auto-9, I mean NI-408. I'm not hating the new ED-209 design. In fact, I' not hating any of these designs, surprisingly. They still haven't showed us what the RC-2000 looks like, though, and that's pretty pivotal. Here's hoping there's a substantial trailer at Comic-Con....
