10* The final issue of Marvel's ''The Future of Law Enforcement'' series sees [=RoboCop=] catching a helicopter with a whip of an enemy of his, and pulling it down on his supposed evil replacement, defeating him. Afterwards, he declares himself as the true [=RoboCop=].

15* The first movie's soundtrack was written by none other than Basil Poledouris, who is best known for his work on the score for ''Film/ConanTheBarbarian1982''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb1_38445vA And it was awesome.]]
16* Also, from the same film, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8R3EtZAtoFo "Showdown"]], the track that plays during the awesome climax. (Note: On the Intrada release of the complete score, this track has the far better title "Looking For Me" after our hero's first line to the villains in said climax.)
17* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DL_jKzpSBuc main theme]] of ''Film/RoboCop2'' is totally different -- due to it being written by a different composer, Leonard Rosenman -- and has a distinctly epic and fitting flair, suitably reminiscent of classic Westerns.
18* Though ''Film/RoboCop3'' was bad, at least Basil returned to do the scoring and made the film at least watchable.
19* What's more, there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1Bk7EKLaus this.]] It's not official, but it's pretty cool. The same guy also did songs for ''Franchise/{{Terminator}}'' and ''Film/{{Aliens}}''.
