Photos of 10-Foot ROBOCOP Statue Going up in Detroit
Detroit is going to be getting a 10-foot-tall bronze statue of RoboCop, and here are the photos of what it's going to look like. This is a prototype that is eventually going to get bronzed before it's erected.
The money to do all this came from a Kickstarter campaign. The original sculpt was created by Fred Barton. Across The Board Creation then took the sculpt, did some 3D scanning, digital enlarging, and physical fabrication, and assembled the statue you see in these photos in foam, wax, clay, and steel. All that's left is the bronzing job.
It's pretty awesome and crazy that the city of Detroit approved this statue. It's very rare to see a fictional character get his own city statue. After all, RoboCop only protected the city of Detroit in the movies. Look over the photos and let us know what you think of the design.
