Thought I'd make an archive of the publicity stills from RoboCop. There was a lot taken by the Production and Art Department, and probably many that aren't even on the internet yet. Hopefully, this thread will allow a collaborative effort to further complete the set. Black and white stills were given a unique number based on shooting sequence, which makes it easier to identify. I don't believe the color photographs were done in this manner.

* Indicates an educated guess, based on the photographer's other confirmed scenes.
So for this project, I'll be looking for higher quality scans for those not available, missing numbers, and missing photographer credits. Usually, these can be found in press kits. Also, a question to the mods: is there any table formatting available for this forum?
Finally, if I used an image that any of you scanned (a few probably face from RoboCop Archive), just say so so I can give credit.
Special thanks to Archive for sharing images.

Are you searching for publicity stills from the first one only? Because in this picture is Burke, from the Robo3 car chase on the pimpmobile. Anyway, sounds like a good idea!

A few of those I don't think we've seen before or got in hi-res. Interesting.

| Good catch, I mistook that one for a picture from the Deana Newcomb cop car photoshoot.
For this thread, I'm just going for images from the original. Maybe if this gets far enough along, I'll start up the others (other people are free to do that as well).
I'll also try to fix some up in Photoshop as I go along, to get them back to their original levels, or properly align an image.

So just to make it clear, do you have all these as higher res images or are you mainly collecting the thumbnails you found around the net for this topic?

The thumbnails should link to the full-sized images (unless this doesn't work for you). I'm trying to gather the highest quality, un-watermarked images available.

These are some good and interesting pics. Many we've seen before but there's a couple fresh ones to me in there. Much thanks for gathering them up and consolidating them in one spot. _________________ I don't wanna pay that, PhotoBucket. Now maybe you haven't heard, but I'm the guy in old Archive. So hows about you just shit snow for a year and I'll figure out something else. Sayonara!

Yeah, some link to somewhat larger images but unfortunately the rare ones didn't. Like the two:

Anyway, i'll add some pictures to this list soon. I think i got at least a few other ones.

Here are some more.
Only one image had any numbering. So not much info to provide.

Wow, thanks, that's an excellent addition. As for those aforementioned images, unfortunately, that's the best I've got at the moment. The one of Lewis was a thumbnail from Nancy Allen's website. If you want, there's a decent-resolution image from the shoulders and above (obviously extremely cropped). Also, that image of Robo and Boddicker was the only one I could find. Shame, such a badass image.
Also, here's some points of interest.

While not this exact photo, a very similar image from the same set was used in the movie under Alex Murphy's police file. You can even see the same woman on the right (if someone has an HD screencap, that'd be appreciated). Due to its chronology, I believe Laurel Moore took those shots.

Again, due to placement within the sets, the iconic poster image of RoboCop climbing out of the car may have been part of a filmed sequence. Right before Robo takes on the would-be rapists, we see a sudden jump cut of RoboCop standing in front of them. This would've gone in between.

I don't think so. This seems more as if it would have been part from the gas station scene. It's just that in the finished picture, the shot of him getting out of the car starts at a later stage. Not to mention that they couldn't have a full shot, since getting out of the car was pretty much impossible in that suit, from what I've heard.
Anyway, a great set of photos. I'm pretty sure I've never seen a few of the ones you and Archive posted. _________________ Anything you post can be used against you!

Oh you're right, wrong scene. Whoops. Looking back at the scene, we do see him step out of the car after all. False alarm.

Some of those promo images are in hi-res shots out there. I remember murphy38 got a few and scanned them up, and they were decent sized. The one with the Delta City billboard and shadow and the gang out the door with the shotguns I definitely remember were posted in hi-res versions. I might actually have a couple of those shots on my old computer, actually. _________________ I don't wanna pay that, PhotoBucket. Now maybe you haven't heard, but I'm the guy in old Archive.
