Both Blu-ray releases will be available in March.
In an early announcement to retailers, Shout Factory is working on 'Robocop 2: Collector's Edition' and 'Robocop 3: Collector's Edition' for Blu-ray on March 21.
RoboCop 2 pits two unstoppable cyborgs against each other in a battle to the death! When Detroit's decent into chaos is further compounded by a police department strike and a new designer drug called "Nuke," only RoboCop can stop the mayhem. But in his way are an evil corporation that profits from Motor City crime and a bigger and tougher cyborg with a deadly directive: Take out RoboCop. Containing the latest gadgetry and weaponry as well as the mind of the madman who designed "Nuke," this new cyborg isn't just more sophisticated than his predecessor... he's psychotic and out of control! And it's going to take everything RoboCop has – maybe even his life – to save Detroit from complete and utter anarchy. Starring Peter Weller, Belinda Bauer, John Glover, Nancy Allen, and Dan O'Herlihy.
Robocop 3 - He's Back… To Lay Down the Law! It's Megacop vs. Megacorp when Detroit's cyborg crime-fighter hits the streets to protect the innocent – this time from corporate greed! When the ruthless corporation that runs Motor City begins kicking families out of their homes to clear space for a profitable new real estate project, RoboCop (Robert John Burke, 2 Guns, Limitless) joins with a renegade band of freedom fighters to save them. But RoboCop must face some deadly foes, including a lethally efficient android and a dangerous gang of thugs. RoboCop's latest arsenal of high-tech weaponry only somewhat evens the battlefield, as this lone superhero takes on the entire army of corporate militia in an all-out war to control Detroit! This last film in the trilogy is directed by cult filmmaker Fred Dekker (The Monster Squad, Night of the Creeps). Starring Robert John Burke, Rip Torn, Mako, John Castle, and CCH Pounder.
