I have a studio made suit. Bruce saw it and said it was made for theaters to rent out and use when Robocop was released. Send a PM if you want to make an offer and for more details.

GoldCylon - if you can post up some more photos of Robo in the forum or the Gallery too that would be cool for the rest of us to watch ;)

Well he really isn't pretty anymore. A board member on a five year journey never finished the work. The paint has been stripped down. I'll take a few photos to post here.

OK I found the 2 boxes of parts, and pieces. Time to put everything else away, and then bring the stuff out for a few photos.

Here are a few photos. Also to just clear up any questions this suit isn't a screen used suit, but it was made by the studio. It was rented out to the theaters to promote the release of RoboCop. It lacks many of the details that a screen used version suit would have. It was made for comfort more that shiny on screen. A employee would wear this up to 8 hours a day so they needed to make the suit as comfortable as possible.
I also picked this suit up about 6 years ago in a trade. I was told it was a stunt suit from the RoboCop TV show, but had been warned by a few people they doubt it was. The suit was cool, so I agreed to the trade. I asked Bruce about the suit after it arrived, and he gave me the back ground of this suit. Some unknown reason a fellow forum member (un-named) had the suit 5 years trying to replicate it, and upgrade it to screen HERO version. After close to 5 years I asked him him to send it back, and besides a little sanding on one leg piece that I did the rest of the work is his un-finished results. He also fiber glassed the pieces together making this suit no longer a wearable suit. A few hours of work and cut the seamed fiber glass work apart, and clean up the inside.

It is complete the way it was made. Not the way it is made for on screen. No hydraulic holster.
