** The first one steps out, to [[SoundtrackDissonance triumphant fanfare]]. It is.....a clunky looking brown machine which then lifts up its face plate to reveal the face. The face then sparks and flinches its face in anger, realizing that he's lost his humanity. He draws his gun and shoots the two scientists overseeing the test, killing the one on the right while repeatedly saying "stop or I'll shoot, stop or I'll shoot..." Then he turns to his left and shoots Schenk in the arm (we cut away for a second to Schenk, who clutches his wounded arm and winces uncomfortably at this moment), then turns the gun on himself. Only ''then'', as if to add insult to injury, the prototype's signal lights and sirens kick in.

* The news report updating the audience on the status of the ED-209 project since the first film. It was adopted by many militaries and police forces, only for several malfunctions to become quickly evident. Footage shows one being stuck on an open manhole.

** The second one comes out. It looks much sleeker and more friendlier than the first one....only to suddenly take off its helmet, revealing a screaming skull with all sorts of wires coming out of it, then collapses to the ground and dies [[TooDumbToLive from inadvertently severing its life support]] with a loud crash. You can see the Old Man [[{{Facepalm}} burying his face in his hands watching this]].

*** Also consider that, despite the ED-209 fiasco, OCP ''still'' [[TooDumbToLive hasn't learned that giving prototypes live ammunition is a phenomenally stupid idea.]] At least they're smart enough to not give a loaded gun to the second one.

* The opening Nuke lab raid has a moment that also crosses over into an awesome hostage rescue. Robocop and Lewis in a standoff with a mook holding a baby hostage. He demands that he not be followed and Robocop replies [[ExactWords "We won't."]] When he tries to intimidate the duo by threatening to kill the infant, Robocop snarks "We can't have ''that''." and kills him with a PinballProjectile shot that ricochets precisely off a nearby refrigerator door for a BoomHeadshot, leaving the child unharmed and saved. Sure enough, Robocop kept his word and didn't follow him.

*** A bit of FridgeHorror in that the slim model appears to be ''female, like the previously shot and killed scientist.'' Of ''course'' she committed suicide by tearing her helmet off.
*** WordOfGod says the second model simply wanted to show its face, and was not aware of its own nature enough to understand that the helmet was permanently attached to it.

** Not only is [[HilariousInHindsight the realization]] that the actress in the ad is Fabiana Udenio before she was [[Film/AustinPowersInternationalManOfMystery Alotta Fagina]] funny, but there's also the fact that you've got two options if sunbathing in California: [[MortonsFork Skin cancer from overexposure to the sun or skin cancer from the carcinogenic Sunblock 5000]]. The latter means you get it while trying to cosplay as a [[Film/{{Avatar}} Na'vi]], or endearing yourself to Captain Kirk.
