I would say the biggest issue with the design is that if you were to insert in into any other movie nobody would think "Hey, that looks like Robocop." The design just looks a ton like those soldiers from the GI Joe movie, mixed with Batman and then some sort of future helmet slapped on for good measure.. Im glad it doesn't look just like the old design, it would so goofy that way, but it doesn't need to look this generic.

Shitty suit for a shitty franchise

The problem is the people parroting that shit are just quietly implying, "You're a nostalgic old fart" by regurgitating that rhetoric. I agree. When Robocop hit the scene it was like nothing we had seen at the time. This? As you've said, we've seen it countless times. Certainly there is nothing new under the sun, it's just that some studios aren't willing to invest the time and money in concept artists worth a shit to get that end result that is like nothing we've seen before.

Not only have we seen it countless times, I have yet to see an armor/cyborg look as cool as the original RoboCop. Anyone insisting it looks like crap has a bad opinion.

[Tom_Cody]

where is the soul? it looks terrible boring and .... not special or iconic at all.

Right. I can't even believe they put this into production without an iconic suit.

GAF did a better job.

"Ribs" should be metallic as well.

Slightly different, and I like it better with the grey/silver helmet and black gloves, but:

I'd like to see this as a shop, coloring the next segment down silver as well, and leavin the abs black,

I actually like the two tone, but poster leaves little hope.

Yeah, I was looking at one of our shops on page 2, and it's an identical color scheme, but more hastily done.

[LaserBuddha]

So was the live action G.I. Joe movie a prequel for the new Robocop? I'm so confused...

[Thriller]

I've got two things to say.

1 : Robocop should most surely be as brutal and hardcore as the original AND have the cool sound effect when he is walking (you know as if his foot sucks against the floor or something).

2 : Bitches leave should have a reference :P

[Sentry]

So it seems like they'll be ditching the silver almost altogether for a bunch of red gizmos and shining lens flare diodes. When's the trailer going to get?

[CrunchinJelly]

Bring back the blue suit.

[Liquidsnake]

LOl.

[DemonNite]

[Silly.Mikey]

He looks like Batman without the cape. Terrible.

[Foxy Fox 39]

looks like he's wearing shapeups.

[Marco1]

I hope this film forces them to release a decent blu-ray collection of the original trilogy.

[BobTheFork]

All hail the BarbeauBot!
D cups of Justice.

[Tr4nce]

Oh my god, unless there's going to be some CG effects added to the suit, this looks so fucking shitty. I'm sorry.

Look at the original suit. It actually looks like a machine, and the design is just great. Black and silver. The new suit looks abominable.

[Polari]

Ugh. The original is so iconic. This looks like Batman wearing a motorcycle helmet.

[Dai101]

Maybe Robocop is both white and black so to be homeboy for everyone. He needs to speak some spanish too. "Gracias for your cooperation ese!"

Fixed.

[DMczaf]

[YesNOnoNOYes]

I like the lines, but i dont like the colour. even on the edit :(

needs moar silver

[Dai101]

Well, at least they're still Ford Taurus...

[Platy]

New pics !











On a related note, Robocop is now a JEDI !

[lastplayed]

He looks like Darth Maul.

Forget the colours, the shape is all wrong. He looks like a guy in a rubbery suit. Maybe it'll look better in the movie though, I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it.

[CrunchinJelly]

I thought they cut off the other arm in the first film?

[Medalion]

New pics ! On a related note, Robocop is now a JEDI !

Clearly they heard NEOGaf's reaction to the new suit and wanted to hide er up

[Snaku]

Gonna be a slap in the face when they show the original suit and then settle on this in the movie.

[jett]

Robojedi!

Again with the uncovered hand, I wonder if that's actually part of the movie or if the actor just injured his hand or something.

[WonkersTHEWatilla]

By the looks of the leg armor...I'm guessing this suit is either foam latex or rubber armor bits on a nylon undersuit.

[Platy]

Robojedi! Again with the uncovered hand, I wonder if that's actually part of the movie or if the actor just injured his hand or something.

Considering the parts without armor like his hands and calfs ... I would guess that these parts will be replaced with CG to give a more "no way this is a human wearing this" feel

[Count Dookkake]

More like Robe o'Cop.

[Medalion]

Use the Force, Murphy!

[DurielBlack]

New suit looks awful IMO. Just looks like sci-fi guy in a suit #5466, the original is soo much better and they should have just stuck with it for the new movie.

I wouldn't be surprised if he moves around like a normal person too, instead of the stiff robotic movements in the original movie.

Ah yes you are quite right.

not bad... kinda reminds me of Barricade from Transformers 2007.

[xtrasauce]

I know a lot of people are flipping out about the suit looking too generic/not silver/not sufficiently robo-like... but the thing that is even more important, the only thing that truly matters to me... is they better not friggin' make him retract his visor and talk to people with his whole face uncovered as if he's just some dude in a suit.

He's not some dude in a suit. He is half-dude half-suit.

[Medalion]

Is this being shot in Canada or something? What an odd thing to ask for a canadian preteen boy for this movie

It's a pretty transparent way for them to fulfill the Canadian actor requirement to get tax benefits.
