Trivia:
|
- ED-209's voice is that of producer Jon Davison. ED-209's body was based on the design of a Bell helicopter and the overall appearance is reminiscent of a line of toys named Robotech which were based on an 1980s animated cartoon series.
- 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.
- Paul Verhoeven makes a cameo dancing in the disco, looking into the camera, when Leon is arrested.
- The point-of-view shots from Robocop include references to MS-DOS.
- The point-of-view shots from the Robocop's perspective were created with Amiga Video Toaster.
