Robocop 2 Cain Stop-Motion Puppet Replica

- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- During our visit to Phil Tippett Studio, we had a chance to inspect one of the original stop-motion puppets used to for Robocop 2's Cain robot. This intricately designed and machined miniature was actually recently disassembled so its hundreds of parts could be molded to create a series of replicas. We chat with Paul Francis of Chronicle Collectibles to geek out over the little details of this amazing puppet and learn about the replication process.

One of my favorite droids of all time. Armed to the teeth and looks awesome!

Cool to see Robocop 2 get some love. The first film is my favourite movie of all time but the second has grown on me as well.
Greatest Robots in Movie... Robocain, Robocop Murphy.... and ED-209...... Their greastest design ... their motion... and their reality... I really really Love them... Robocop forever
Lovely mechanical engineering, both in the original and the replicas.
I haven´t seen Robocop, but seeing those lovely Robots, makes me want to see the movie just to see them alive. Great work guys and tank you Norm for inventing us to this visit by filming it.
When i saw Cain in action, i absolutely sh@# myself. It creeped me out for years,and still does.
I love that the interviewer for Tested is off-the-charts excited! I love passionate people, especially with this kind of stuff. Kudos, boys 'n girls!
I love all the efforts Chronicle made for Cain, I love these two men and feel thank about their interview.
I wish we had more great effects like this
If X men had a film in the 90's,they should of made a sentinel something like this.
some stop motion scenes are really very well done, the fear is bigger than cgi scenes.
I've always liked Cain's design, thought it was a lot cooler than the original Robocop and about as cool as ED-209...
I got to check this out at SDCC 2014. It looked absolutely amazing! I also met Paul. He's a great guy!
Starcraft and Gears of War took so many design cues off of this guy, specifically the chest.
its really a pretty perfect piece but my only set back from getting it is that it does not move like the original armature,if it did id happily pay that price tag.the wait continues
his comment at the end brings back a memory of when I was 9-yrs old and I told my father that I wanted to make my own model of my favorite puppet from my favorite movie, and he said "Oh no, don't make him. People didn't really like him. Maybe you should pick one of the others."
My dad told me the same so i went to a construction store near my house bought a a shit ton of wire and build my own to play wiht my robocop figure.
This guy is a legend.
I still remember that in theaters they showed the cop being cut open and killed....I havent seen the BlueRay, but every video Ive seen- has that scene censored.
Interesting. It's a known deleted scene, and I wonder if some cuts really did show the full content.
@@SlashManEXE Not sure about cinemas, but my DVD version (UK) has the deleted scene as part of what it says is the theatrical release. Strange, as when I had it on VHS this extended version wasnt included, so I was shocked to see it for the first time when on DVD. It is definitely excessive and not in the same spirit as the first film.
@@SlashManEXE On the Dutch VHS rental it had the scene and also the Dutch tv version.
The vivisection scene? Its on the VHS version. Its probably on the directors cut of blu ray/dvd
@@SlashManEXE the Showtime cable premiere in 1991 had that scene.
I am a massive fan of stop motion - and I love Cain and Robocop. But modelmakers really need to understand CG has just as much craft behind it as theirs. The only part that is easier, is replication. Which if you think about it, model making tries to make replication as easy as possible too (molds and casting). Apart from that, modelmakers and CG artists are doing the same thing!
It's the old world versus the new. I built dens, my son builds minecraft.
The best results always come when CG and practical are used together depending on the needs of the scene. Stuff like Jurassic Park and Terminator 2 still holds up really well even today. Both methods have their advantages and flaws, and a smart team can use them together to balance each other out.
5 years after your comment CGI is garbage. You won’t replicate complex lighting and light interaction in media by using CGI applications - they are weak and CGI artists are stupid lazy freaks who should be learning practical effects instead of garbage 3D studios.
@@alexeyl22 Saying that CGI is rubbish now is an untrue generalization. There is a spectrum of quality in CGI from so good you don't know you saw it all the way to garbage yes. The trouble is we notice the bad stuff more than the good stuff. Alot of it is down to misuse.... for that I blame poor direction and producers trying to get more from the budget than is possible.
You assuming a lot about people you don’t know. CGI is garbage by your own admittance - because people who are involved with it do it mostly for money, not for passion. When they do it for money they don’t give rats ass about perfection. And because CGI has no uniqueness factor, it is not collectible, and therefore is easy to reproduce, copy-paste garbage. It overwhelms senses to the point that nobody cares anymore about stupid CGI.
RoboCop 2 was my favorite one
8:04 "I miss this quality of work" Spot on ! CGI doesn't get the same thing.
This is really awesome stuff here. I'm not a collector, but I would own this.
Now, imagine if that figure was made, instead of plastic, steel.. PURE PERFECTION!
Mind blowing amazing job simply stunning i love stop motion.
This old robot's design still looks amazing in modern days.
If there gonna be a sequal of 2014 Robocop, even the first one is kind of "meh", they only need to show me a new Robo Cain that looks cool enough, I will go to thearter again for it.
I wish that there were a NECA version of cain(robot)
Yes yes yes
That's what i'm hoping for. Just ordered heir ED-209
That would be awesome i was just searching to see if they made one yesterday.
Robocop, HellBoy, The Thing..I love Practical Effects.
oh my stars. That is absolutely gorgeous.
Yes. I will buy one. I always loved stop-motion, this will be a fantastic collection item.
Norm.. ffs stop talking over the guest on your friggin show. Its exceedingly bad manners, and as a pro you shouldn't be doing it.
I think he's keeping the energy up in the conversation. Nothing is unsaid, but he amps up the interviewee and gets the whole show caffeinated.
+1
He's just overexcited
If neca, hot toys, hiya toys all made Cain Robot, the $$$$$ they would make is unreal
I wonder if the Robocain puppet replica come with the lamp lights that the original got in the first action scene
Amazing replica and great interview. It's good to see another replica company emerge. Maybe they will become a competition for Sideshow some day, which would be priceless, since SS is doing poorly recantly.
Paul reminds me of sellers on QVC :)
A British cat did it a few years ago fully animated and most parts are from aluminium plates and never had access to so much documentation for making it, so I still prefer its one and only piece of work instead of a resin cat one ;)
Exactly
@@yomekpiecemaker8764 Hi, it was me :) glad you liked it
Is it articulated like the puppet? Or is it just a statue?
one of my top 10 robots in non-cgi films
so much passion to make this !!! congrats !!! it kick ass !!!!
@7:00 The shoulder gun was not on the end - it was on him during the introduction as far as I remember.
... "Cain! Let's step outside!"... classic.
so awesome
Damn he loks great! Awesome Job! So many Details
Im one of those people who still love Robocop 1 and 2
That is incredibly AWESOME!
I love that movie!
Wasn't hot toys supposed to have made one of these? They mentioned it on their Facebook page like 5 years ago! I guess it was too difficult!
I'm sure they could do it, have you seen the MK42?. I thinking it's more likely that it wouldn't be cost effective. Your average Hottoys buyer is going to struggle with an £800 price tag, and that's before you add on postage and the ever criminal import duty.
Fantastic.
"That thing is a killer"
It's not even armed! It's harmless!
@@AmyLeesPetWookiee It's a killer, and I saw it!
$1300 yikes. But still so cool.
Can't put a price tag on quality. =P
That's very reasonable.
Worth every penny. I don't collect anything at all, but this is a MUST HAVE.
Love the robocop cain. Fan all my life .. iam building a full.size cain
That thing used to give me Nightmares.
When's the Cain Lego kit coming out?
XD
I assume you're being fasceous...ha....ha. I doubt LEGO would allow a murdering, drug taking, criminal overlord to be in its product line....which is rather hypocritical, considering the amount of Anakin Skywalker /Star Wars sets there are....and AS/DV doesn't have a stellar track record either (younglings/tusken raiders)
I could only dream that some form of digital files were created from the measurements taken. I would probably do obscene things just to be able to look at a Cain CAD file.
I would love to figure out how to get a 1/10 scale sheet of decals for my 1/10 scale built Cain just so he can be super accurate
How much could cost one of this original guys! amazing robot
it annoys me. if i had one of these i would make soooooo many stop motion videos of it. 500 made and not 1 fan animation. ITS NOT FAIR
I wonder what the odds are of NECA ever releasing a version?
man, wish I could afford to pay the $1300 for this replica of Cain. it's just the most bad ass robot ever. it would look great with my small robocop collection. too bad the only Cain I have is the 3" figure by kotobukiya.
I saw a life-sized replica of RoboCain's gun arm in the background...id he trying yo make a life-sized model?! If so, please do sir!
Start the stop-motion!
I wonder if the face opens up and if there's a screen inside on the original?
As a kid I thought they were CG graphics. But no! They were STOP MOTION!!!
Cause you can watch many old movies from the 70's, 80's and early 90's that used stop motion and so many of them look bad! They were choppy, the movement didn't look natural and it broke the immersion of the film!
But what made Robocop 1 and 2's stop motion work is that they were animating ROBOTS!!! The choppiness and mechanical movement of the stop motion puppets actually worked and made them look even more robotic! When other movies tried to stop motion creatures or living things, it looked so cheesy!
Perfect
This is great, I need this product, I will buy this product but does it move like the original? The website is a bit vague about this too. If you can give me a positive answer, you will have a customer.
@1:42 no cnc at the time? I beg to differ. The first cnc machines were build in the 60s and the robocop 2 movie was made in 1990. I would also bet primitive cad programs were available at that time. Wikipedia says it became a thing in mid 1970s but Im not sure how trustworthy that is.
This robot used to scare the crapp out of me as a child!
is that thing poseable? any articulation, or just a statue?
very very cool btw
where do you get the cain robot from
Still waiting to see some new Robocain statutes as promised!
He said there will be more robocop items coming and more cain? maybe a cheaper version of the robocain figure?
One question in all the coverage you have done on this an the other Robocop replica You never say if it can move or be posed like the original stop motion puppet. Can it ?
they shoud have made models that all of there parts move just like the puppets in the movies back in the day i was looking for models robots just like this one that was made for the movies.
The Chronicle Collectibles site no longer exists :(
looks great is the possable one product your selling?
Robocain el mas grande villano de la franquicia
i wonder if a full size model could work as in the movie
How many of these does he plan to sell? Or more importantly, how many do you have to sell to break even.
They are producing 1000 units, that's it.
Good
I am so upset that I can't buy a replica. Only 500 of them? No fair!
Lovely :)
I would luv to have this !
I personally worked on GoTg not a chance you can do that in stop motion, ask Phil to do Groot or Rocket and make it believable ..... this is why is probably always grumpy
Does his shoulder gun slide up and down from his back like it does in the movie if it does I will buy this for a dollar
Good video guys! The background music was a little too loud though.
Can you buy this
So, you can't buy one anymore?
Ahhhhh!!!!! I must have!!!!
How can I buy one..??
So does this replica have the articulation of the original?
No it's a statue with zero articulation. I imagine the cost for a articulated action figure version would be too great.
Can somebody tell me, why in the movie do they give a phicoptath brain into a super robotank??????? And supuse to replace the original robocop????
They thought they could control him with nuke.
@@ziongarner4485 Well done, my friend I didnt realize that detail, you are very clever.
I want to build one.
I'm getting mine!!!!
Dude i want one...to bad they are sold out
que envidia me gustaría tanto tener un trabajo como el de él.....
Why do I go look at the prices of these things? WHY!?!?!
Links to caine replica is broken!!!
cool replica but that head is so not moving ....
i bet norm had to play with it!.........i would! :)
I'm still upset over the Cryocan debacle! 😢
can I remove it from base? does it have legs motions? I mean is it fully movable? like hottoys robocop. is it 1/6 scale? please advice, thank you!
+Andrey Z Yes , you can remove it from the base , but there are some metal pegs under the feet that make impossible to stand on another place than the base.
In terms of articulation , sorry , but it's close to none, most of the parts have been glued together.
There are five parts to assemble , the legs , the torso , the gatling arm , the pinch arm , the solder arm , and the right arm.
You can just cheat a little with the arm that's what i've done , but for the rest, forget about articulation.
2:16 punches palm
Who can tell me where I can buy it? I like it very much.
