Trivia
The helmets the police officers wear are modified versions of the Cooper SK 2000 hockey helmet. Oddly enough the visors are screwed into the side bumpers instead of the 2 screws on the front of the helmet where traditionally visors & cages are installed on the helmets. In the NHL it was most famously used but Mario Lemieux, Chris Osgood, & Dominic Hasek.

Goofs
[1:11:33]When RoboCop attempts to arrest Dick Jones in the tower and shuts down (due to directive 4), he is on the floor with his head parallel to the floor. When he comes back to the board room to show the incriminating evidence, Dick Jones is perfectly framed and his face is vertical as though filmed in a studio. In fact it looks the same as the video shown when Clarence Boddicker killed Bob Moreton.
