Very cool! Some years back I built the Horizon 1/9 vinyl Robocop and did something similar, I used ball and socket parts from a Lego-like poseable figure to achieve a limited degree of articulation, but not as extensive as yours, great job so far, very keen to see the finished product!

Awesome build.
I someday want a nice Robocop figure, even if just premade...and a nice ED209.
From time to time I have this as my phones background, from the warehouse shootout.

If you by chance need his gun sound, this guys YT channel cleans up movie sounds, or I think he even recreates them super accurate sometimes.
He does a great job at it.

I know what you mean....I've gotten mad at things that weren't working, I've also thrown them as well....to force myself to walk away to not to totally destroy something. Guess that frustration can get the better of us all.
Now when you do get it all finished, just have the youtube clip on your phone ready to play if showing it to someone in person. Right?

I think it turned out really good. (I suppose being a Robocop fan helps...lol) Its almost like really great projects need to cause some frustration at some point.
When I was doing this battle cruiser back in 2017, it was somewhere in this back end with all the weird shapes and pvc pipe to just get it to all fit together, that I really was about to lose it....I think I almost just about crushed it and probably did bend a piece or two....but did stop and walked away for a bit.
Yeah.....this type stuff can surely do that. Now fully completed and by my tv, I still find it amazing that I ever finished it and that it turned out so well.

Was just thinking this.....
Dead or alive, this build is coming to an end...(finish)....
I'll see myself out to the door now.......

Sorry to blow it up with all the serial likes but dang, great build and the set piece really pulls it together. Loving the detail.

Love the garbage can. Guessing its covered in aluminum wrap, pushed onto the object really tight. What was the object underneath?
Or if I'm guessing wrong all together.

Ok, so basically the idea I was thinking. Its always fun to create something that seems so simple, and with cardboard type material, and then have it turn out so great.

Looking better and better.
Just last night was talking with my roommates son, who is 20 but quite autistic. His Mom never would let him watch Robocop. We got talking, and about how bloody some scenes are. So I ended up showing him the ED209 malfunction killing Mr. Kinney, the unrated/directors cut.
He was actually expecting it to be worst. So I also showed Murphy getting shot up, which ends up making him Robocop.
He was actually quite impressed that it was done so well for the 80s.
It really is such a perfect 80s film that feels quite realistic despite not being realistic....(like sending out actual ED209s on the streets. Total overkill)
