I would feel an idiot if I'm the only robofan who had never seen Babylon AD "Kid Goes Wild" video clip until today. How could it pass under my radar for more than 20 years?

Looks like Weller?

It does look a lot like Weller but it's not. Unless he totally forgot how to move in the suit. Haha!
Interesting side note: My aunt worked for Arista Records back in the day and they were promoting 'The Kid Goes Wild' along with R2 so Orion sent them one of the hero suits from the movie and her boss wore it at malls and such where they were selling the album. She watched them put it on him and she said he looked a lot like Weller with it on. So it may be that guy in the video, I don't know. She brought be a bunch of R2 loot also, those chrome looking badge stickers with Robo's head on it and a VHS copy of the 'Kid Goes Wild' video. I lost it years ago but recently got a sealed copy of it off eBay. I win.

I'd say that video looked very similar to the 'You Could Be Mine' music video featuring Guns And Roses to promote Terminator 2. Although this video dates that song and movie by just one year...but yeah I think the song seemed average at best.

| CoboRop : | | Im sure its already been mentioned somewhere in the last 16 pages but one that springs to mind missing off the first post is RoboCop Versus The Terminator (1993/94) by Virgin Games. |
Its not really a cameo or reference since it has RoboCop in the title and you play as RoboCop the entire game.

I love it, it has an edge, and I really like the guitar sound and the riff

Not exactly a 'RoboCop' reference but criminally close here I think..
I'm about to watch Criminal Minds, and a re-run of the reboot Hawaii Five-O show is on, which has Peter Weller as the bad guy, In this case a badass ex-Marine scout sniper serial shooter.. He just now taunted the cops over the phone.. man that voice plus being a bad guy.. awesome!
They also just had a chase sequence with him in a about 10-15 year old Cobra Mustang (last one before the 'retro' restyling) and the cops in their Camaro. At the end the two split into driving parallel around an obstruction with each other, which ended with Weller launching off into the water.. It was very reminiscent of the ending chase with Lewis and Boddicker in R1.. so much that I wonder if it was an intentional nod in some way..
Weller survived plunging into the water. But at the end he unfortunately he got shot off a building. Needless to say I didn't like the show that much.

I love the Howard Stern show still. It is so good. Here in this link. If you go to around the 3 hour and 3 minute mark they start talking about the new RoboCop. Keep in mind howard was always a big supporter and fan of the original robocop and peter weller was on the show once too. He'll talk about it again after he watches it. I can't wait to hear then.

Thanks Demise. Howard is an American hero and his love of RoboCop makes me love him all the more.

Thought you might like that. As you see, most of his entire show is on youtube the day after it airs.

There are 2 large ones in the awesome facebook game, Mutants: Genetic Gladiaters.
The Enforcer
The Enforcer is a big RoboCop reference.
" This cyborg supercop was retired from active service in the Earthopolis Security force. But in the arena, the fans enjoy its zero tolerance, expeditious judgments and fatal sentencing! "
The basic and bronze look very like Robocop, the silver is original, and the gold looks very like Ironman. The Super Hero Enforcer looks like Superman in a Ironman suit.
http://mutantsgeneticgladiators.wikia.com/wiki/Enforcer
The Goliath
A big bipedal robot that looks like a ED209 or metal gear.
http://mutantsgeneticgladiators.wikia.com/wiki/Goliath
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
There is a big reference in DE: HR
There is this large easter egg.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K3BmrDmMTA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWL0Tfaqvq0
Look on his computer after knocking them both out or killing them, also.
The email references the old cinema films.
It's also prophetic, since his rank is Detective Alex Murphy, which is the rank of the new one.
There is also a reference in the detroit LIMB clinic, in a email about Adam Jenson.
The entire game is a reference.
You would not believe how hard it is to find a good video of that easter egg. It's easy to find, but most think it's some secret you've to sneak up on, or some other rubbish.
When sneaking up does the opposite. Even when Adams allowed there, too many times popping up behind them will turn them both hostile.
Power Rangers Megaforce
RoboKnight
He is a odd one. He's a robot. But he is REALLY like Robocop.
Down to the voice, walk. Story in a way.
When I first saw him, I was a bit baffled.
I spent the entire time thinking, 'He is REALLY like Robocop.'
'But he's a robot, why would you make a robot a reference to RoboCop, a cyborg.'
He's like a mix of robocop and a eco robot from anime.
Mostly robocop.
I like him, I hope he's in the next series, once it comes to channel 5.
