I finally found The Human Torch to go with my Sub-Mariner.  I just need to find the Captain America one. Although, the Marvel Mystery Comics #7 is a fantastic cover; I would have liked to have Marvel Comics #1 as the cover featured with the figure.

That RoboCop is sweet!

Kinda feels "off" to me if he's not holding his gun, though. The facial expression is also a bit of an odd choice.

Those two elements almost make it look like he's been caught in a firefight without his gun, and is either mad or worried about it!

That C3P0 shines, JB! Don´t even think about it!

If anything, you need an Artoo to go with it!

Maybe one that could double as a trashcan, so it would be "useful" wasted space...

The splayed fingers read to me as if he's "going for his gun".

Going with that theme, it would be cool if the gun-holster in his thigh could be displayed open or closed. It would work well with the "sci-fi Western" feel of the character.

Apart for a little too much exaggeration (is that possible?) in the waist hip area, she DOES look great !

Yeah, I love the detail on this Robocop, but that expression is making me
think of Napoleon Dynamite.
