Small Scale Military Headquarters

Got the new glass shelf this weekend and made a new home for my 1:18 guys.

Nice figures, Melvin!

Your silver Iron man looks pretty cool

where did you get the robocop?

Nice collection.

One criticism though - Tom Berenger or anyone else would never try to wear a holster designed to be worn on a hip web belt, for his .45 as a shoulder holster. Just too awkward and bulky to draw the gun. Shoulder holsters were light and did not have the cover and Sgts just were not issued shoulder holsters unless they were in a armored vehicle.

I wore one whenever I drove a vehicle. I wasn't issued one, I ordered one as a "midnight requisition".

Hi,the Robocop was made by kotobukiya(a famous Japanese model company ), they made 6 figures from Robocop movie like ED209 and damaged version. Check here:http://www.darkhorse.com/Products/13-83 ... cop-ED-209

Awesome.

just ordered a Robocop off ebay. Cost about $16 with shipping. A tad expensive but i've been wanting a 4 inch Robocop for years and didn't know they existed.

Thanks Melvin!

has anyone bought from them before

zac

how tall is robocop

is he 3 3/4

it's 10cm, just a micron over 4 inches.

Toywiz tried to rip me off in shipping ($75 to ship to canada )

i would advise you stay away from them.

I bought mine from this seller:

I offered 8 pounds and it was accepted....total cost with shipping was $16 and change, probably the same or less as what you'd pay at Toywiz anyway.

Andrew......8 pounds.....of what? Just kidding my friend.......been alooong day.

8 british pounds sterling

The figure looks great and $16.00 with shipping........not a bad deal.

Melvin, You've got a very nice collection which looks great on the new glass shelf.
As mentioned your photography is outstanding!!

my robocop came today. Nice figure. Not nearly as articulated as i was expecting. No knees, no elbows, right wrist only. Both ankles, waste and head are articulated. Well detailed.

He's a big boy, just over 4 1/4 inches tall....putting him at 6'5". Doesn't look out of place on the shelf though.

Overall i'm quite pleased but wish he had some better articulation for more poses....there's not a lot you can do with him.

Very nice figures and display!

Yeah, even it is not with many articulations(after all it is capsule toy from puzzle egg selling machines ,in Japan they call it this name), but it is still a very detailed figure,especially the paint is beautiful.
