    Except for being a little pricey, I really have no complaints at all, he's awesome! I never expected much in the line of articulation, It's not an actual action figure to be played with on a regular basis and I mean he couldn't even go downstairs in the movie. lol He's meant to look mean and badass on my shelf and he does the job well!

    The legs do move you just didn't try hard enough. They made them a lot stiffer with a ratchet joint because the first release had very loose legs.
    This is the 3rd version of this model.
    1st Version (2013) - Blue Tint, Loose Legs, Thinner Wires on Hand Guns
    2nd Version (2017) - Silver Tint, Ratchet Legs, 30th Anniversary on Box
    3rd Version (2022) - Silver Tint, Ratchet Legs, Thicker Wires on Hand Guns, No 30th Anniversary on Box

      @@truerc The wires are thicker than my original 2013 model but they could have been changed on the 2017 too. Like I said in my previous message the main difference between this model and the last one is the 30th logo. Apart from the loose legs though the color on the 2013 version was a lot better. In the movie he is a blue/grey color not straight silver like the last 2 versions.

    Misleading title. I came here hoping to hear actual arguments against why it't not a good figure. I can hear him fine as well. This is NECA, a toy company that's maybe one step above Hasbro and Macfarlane. In fact, if it were Hasbro they'd probably charge $150.

    Over $100 for a toy that has less articulation than a $20 toy. I had an Exo Squad toy from the 1990s, the really cool thing about that toy was the fake hydraulics in the elbow and knee joints, as you'd bend the knees to elbows you'd see the fake hydraulic pistons sliding in and out of one another and that was only a $20 toy at the time.
    For a $100 toy it should have the knees able to bend with the 4 hydraulic pistons on each knee joint able to slide in and out of one another, the feet and toes should have more articulation as well.

Can't have everything I guess. But it does have the option for a damaged arm and the sound quality is very good. Of course, the price is a harder kick in the nuts than the Neca ED though, by far.

  • @jeffreygouse802
    @jeffreygouse802 Рік тому

    The only qualm I have about mine are the lack of toe articulation, which is only a big deal to me because 1) we saw them move multiple times in the movie and 2) it could add some variety. The voice box could definitely be clearer, but I never leave the batteries inside due to corrosion (made that mistake once---forgot there were batteries inside, and there was dried battery gunk inside my Diamond Select Enterprise 1701-E). I would say the price was painful too, but I could also say that about the price of garbage bags, lunch meat, and frozen pizza. EVERYTHING seems to be more painful on the wallet nowadays, so whatever.
    If I were to call NECA lazy in any regard to their "RoboCop" line, it would be with their recent Ultimate Robo figure with that flimsy Cobra Assault Cannon and horrid muzzle effect. Fantastic Murphy sculpt, but that spring-loaded holster is absolute garbage and the articulation still leaves something to be desired. But I digress...
    For me, this ED-209 looks incredible on my shelf, which is currently looming large behind my 10+ year old pre-spring holster NECA RoboCop and my Hiya Toys 1:18 RoboCain. Sure, they could've done a little more with it, but it's hardly a major disappointment for me.

    You want a good 7” scale ED-209? Try getting a hold of the Moderoid Model Kit. Sure you gotta do a little painting, but it's got all the little articulation points we needed. Doesn't include any battle damaged parts, but you could probably make some for it since it's a kit that can be taken apart.
    P.S. For anyone wanting to get the NECA figure: DO NOT BUY FOR 100$. That's what I did long time ago, and it is NOT worth 100 dollahs. Try to get it for about 40$ or 50$.
    I think the Ideal price would be 30$.
    If NECA wants to sell ED for 100$ they need to update his articulation, and give him accessory's.

    i got this over a year ago and was super disappointed with it. It feels cheap and the articulation really killed it for me. The smaller cheaper Hiya toys one is better articulated. I tried to give it away and no one wants it

    Id like to get into collecting some of these, but every time i go to target, theres like 2 or 3 creepy looking dudes ALWAYS there haunting the neca section waiting for re stock. As soon as the boxes come OUT theyre next to the employee practically helping them price tag the item so they can take it....i always wondered how sad it must be, to spend all day walking weirdly around a dept store waiting for dolls to get stocked.😳. No offence to any one here, they look cool...but wtf...
