RoboCop was one of the best and most violent movies of 1987. A dystopian, cynical, dark comedy - of sorts - directed by the brilliant Dutchman known as Paul Verhoeven. It featured action scenes so gratuitous that it had to be edited down in order to be allowed an R-Rating. Essentially, Verhoeven loves squibs. Lots and lots of squibs.

So of course this means that RoboCop would make a great kids show right? Well, that’s exactly what happened in 1988! RoboCop the animated series debuted with 12 episodes and a toy line that made use of cap gun technology. And you know what? It was actually pretty awesome. RoboCop was a great show.
