Props and costume builder Shawn Thorsson has created a live-size replica of RoboCop's killer robot ED-209.

The beast took Thorsson about three months to complete in incredible detail all the way down to hazzard stickers and grease lines. While originally intended to be static the robot does swivel its head and machine gun arms.
