I'm also not blown away by the pose or the facial expression, but that is an amazingly realistic-looking Robocop. Must be really impressive 'in the flesh'.

I agree with the note on the facial expression. I don't find it appealing.

The detail from the Cap drawing on the tin (is that Sal Buscema?) really doesn't work as a button, does it? Without the rest of the image to give it context, it reads as if Cap is tipping his head to one side, not as if he is raising a shoulder as he runs.

I bet it wouldn't be that hard to buy the FF Human Torch statue and fill in his face. Then I'd have a nice Golden Age set of 3!

Hmmm.....

That Cap looks to be based on the cover to CAPTAIN AMERICA #100 not the random image they put on the tin.

Very impressive prototype for the next S.H. MonsterArts figure from Bandai:  The 1991 King Ghidorah:

I'm guessing Mecha King Ghidorah will not be far behind...

Totally reminds me of the Fantastic Four issue where Doom's mask attacked She Hulk in the Baxter Building! Great issue, JB! There is a Galactus preview on SideShowCollectibles.com too. They are for San Diego Comic Con 2012
