Really glad you liked it. 
I realize that the interest for the ride is probably pretty low in general among Robo fans as it is a goofy concept, but i was always fascinated by the mystery of it, and i found it to be quite fun to try and hunt down people involved with the production.

Good work. Always great to know more from the obscure side of the franchise.

I'm glad I finally got to see some footage of the ride, it looks like it was a lot of fun and I would have loved to experience it firsthand. The most interesting thing about this video to me is the bit at the end about the toy based on the ride. I've always seen that one floating around and wondered why they randomly gave RoboCop a purple motorcyle. Now I see it is actually based directly on this ride, which is pretty cool and actually makes sense. I was never interested in that particular toy because the purple motorcycle seemed out of place, but I might have to get one now that I know the history behind it.

I'm not working actively on a new episode right now, but the next one would be about Bixby Snyder and all his appearances as well as the use of the "id buy that for a dollar" in other media.
There are several ideas for other episodes, but it is a challenge to do a topic that people also want to see. I'm really proud of the "old man" and the "motion Ride" videos but they are doing pretty poorly in views compared to the first three episodes.

I help a well known band on social media and that doesnīt surprise me. When they do something new, peopleīs reaction arenīt as good as people would expect, but if you do more of the same, reactions are bigger and receptions are better.

Oh yes, and with RoboCop as soon as you move away from the first movie you've lost 50% or more of the fans right away.

just saw this now, really nice work man, it was definitely enjoyable and an eye opener
as for views, have faith, the more people delve into the lore and history of robocop, the more they will want to know how did the rabbit hole goes.

I think the episodes that focus on aspects of Robo himself tend to do better. Maybe do another about him?

Do you have any ideas or suggestions on what you'd like to see?
I may have run out of ideas for episodes that deal directly with Robo. The first three episodes were rather meaty on info. Especially the third one.

How about an episode about the rudimentary paste that Robo eats? And the misconception that he eats baby food specifically as his main source of nutrients. Johnson said it "tastes like baby food" and Lewis brought him some for lack of the actual rudimentary paste, likely a proprietary blend patented by OCP. But you could include a recipe so viewers at home can make their own rudimentary past and look at all the times Robo was associated with baby food in the extended franchise.

I agree, an episode about Robo's upkeep (the chair, food, etc) but it could also focus on his other accessories (flight pack, gun arm, data spike, ramset, lie detector, etc) and maybe even his link to Diana and Metronet. The Series and cartoons are FULL of extra stuff Robo can do that a whole episode could feature!
