Trivia:
|
- The point-of-view shots from the Robocop's perspective were created with Amiga Video Toaster.
- RoboCop's gun was actually a modified Beretta M93R: The barrel was extended and modified to resemble a casket. The weapon has three settings: single shot, three-round-burst (which was used in the film), and full-automatic.
- The costume was so hot and heavy that Peter Weller was losing three pounds a day from water loss. Eventually, an air conditioner was installed in the costume.
- The computer that Robocop looks up criminal records on is actually a Northern Telecom telephone switch.
- The entrance to the OCP building in the movie is actually the front entrance of Dallas City Hall with extensive matte work above to make the building appear to be a giant skyscraper.
