My favourite char:

c+c, please

very nice, good proportions except, that gun seems to be just plain huge [it's the same size as the forearm]

You could increase your highlight saturation to give it more of a metally feel.

It kind of looks like his torso is bending back at a bit of an odd angle. But then again, it is freaking RoboCop, so why not?

Yeah, i agree on the leaning too much back thing. Also, i remember robocop's armor having a blue (leaning towards green) strong tint, and i think this would benefit of such, accordingly.
Off-Topic: Your avatar reminds me of a run cycle i did for a game a few years ago:

Thanks for your comments :-)
The armour colour: I used a grey tint because in RoboCop 1 the armour was grey:

Off-topic (Turbo):
What a coincidence!!! My avatar seems like your runner but there are some little differences ;)
Of course I didn't know your animation.

Just need to say this. If that image is your defense for making him grey, then you need to find a better image, or a better defense. There's, like, not a single tone of pure grey in that whole picture. Especially on mr. Cop himself. His armor plated self is full of warm copper tones from the surroundings. And even in stand-alone shots like this (http://blogs.venturacountystar.com/vcs/dennert/archives/robocop.jpg)... Oh, look, he's all sparkly blue! With interesting greenish darker tones.
That's what buloght meant. While I am a fan of using complete desaturation in some cases, it's VERY rare to find something that is just plain grey. Pretty much everything has some sort of color. I suggest you try doing some desaturated blue on your Robocop. The lineart is pretty good, by the way, looks like something you'd find on a SNES.

robocop's armor was blue, it couldnt have been more blue if they tried, they had the lights ENHANCE the blue in it. check some photos from the movie with an eyedrop tool
