Take a closer look at the vehicles of the RoboCop reboot

A few days back we showed off pictures of the reboot RoboCop’s new motorcycle. Now we have a new set of photos that give us a better look at the bike in action as well other vehicles in the film.

I’m digging the box-y design of the film’s major cars, especially the taxi. Jose Padilha’s design seems to be trying to meld a somewhat retro style with something a bit more contemporary. It’s a nice juxtaposition to counter the original film’s more Reganomics-of-the-future vibe. Also, if nothing else, the reboot may be able to pull off RoboCop on a motorcycle more believably than ROBOCOP 2 managed. Seriously, that scene was almost as hilarious as Robo’s brief stint in the WCW.

ROBOCOP hits theaters February 7, 2014. Check out the pictures, along with the film’s synopsis, below and feel free to express your own thoughts and feelings toward the reboot. Go Robo.

In RoboCop, the year is 2029 and multinational conglomerate OmniCorp is at the center of robot technology. Their drones are winning American wars around the globe and now they want to bring this technology to the home front. Alex Murphy is a loving husband, father and good cop doing his best to stem the tide of crime and corruption in Detroit. After he is critically injured in the line of duty, OmniCorp utilizes their remarkable science of robotics to save Alex’s life. He returns to the streets of his beloved city with amazing new abilities, but with issues a regular man has never had to face before.
