Action Figure Photography — Robocop by Neca

It’s been a while since I took some action figure photos, so I hit the toy store the other day to see what I could find. Check out this awesome Robocop figure by Neca.

That is the spitting image of Peter Weller!

And here’s the full body profile. I love those pistons on the back of his calves–they really work when you bend his ankles!

This image is the closest I got to looking like the streets of Detroit. I was using a new backdrop I made from recycled parts from an old vacuum cleaner and a shredder, along with my favorite Christmas lights and flashlights.

I’m real pleased with the way this last shot turned out. It’s not quite the gritty industrial setting I was going for, but it still looks pretty cool, and really highlights the details of the figure. These Neca figures almost make it too easy to get a good photo!

(You can read more about this particular figure over on the Robot’s Pajamas.)

      Nope, not the terminator, but I did get a figure from another film franchise from the same genre/time period. 😉

      Ooh that’s a pretty broad topic. we did a “when I was 12” topic, but maybe we can branch out a bit.
