Is This Robocop?

We only saw a tiny glimpse of Robocop's chasis in that ED-209 viral thingee awhile back, either for the building of suspense or because they literally haven't settled on a design yet. Now, Geekscape says they've got a concept model of the character...



If this is the real thing (or something close) it's pretty bad; but also completely plausible as a 2012 moviemaking decision: Too slick, not at all iconic, would never peg it as being Robocop if not prompted. Clearly designed to be "dynamic" in motion (re: a lot more jumping about from New Robocop, because that was such a big, gaping hole in the first one...)

Bottom line: This looks like a random mook from any of a dozen recent video-games, not the lead of a big movie.
