*Q&A with the Filmmakers (2012) (1080p; 1.78:1; 42:36): Taped at UCLA's James Bridges Theater on May 31, 2012, and moderated by Robert Rosen, this panel discussion includes Verhoeven, Weller, Allen, producer Jon Davison, screenwriters Neumaier and Miner and effects guru Phil Tippett. Memories have shifted somewhat in the intervening years, but the stories are interesting, and about half of the program is devoted to audience questions. (Although the video format reads as 1080p, the source appears to be of lower resolution.)
Flesh and Steel: The Making of RoboCop (480i; 1.33:1; 36:55): With a 2001 copyright date, this is a comprehensive and remarkably frank overview of the difficult and frequently overextended production of RoboCop, with special emphasis on the tense relationship between Verhoeven and prosthetics designer Rob Bottin. The principal participants are Verhoeven, Miner, Neumaier, Davison and Paul Sammon, who is best known for his research and writing on Blade Runner but was formerly a marketing executive for Orion Pictures, the studio that made RoboCop.
1987 Featurette: Shooting RoboCop (480i; 1.33:1; 7:59): Narrated by producer Jon Davison, but also featuring interviews with Ferrer, Tippett, Verhoeven and Smith, as well as some entertaining on-set footage.
1987 Featurette: Making RoboCop (480i; 1.33:1; 8:01): A companion piece to the previous featurette, this one focuses on Weller, with contributions by Allen, Verhoeven again, and various effects and weapons technicians.
The Boardroom: Storyboard with Commentary with Animator Phil Tippett (480i; 1.85:1; 6:02): As ED-209's rampage plays in slow motion with storyboard drawings inset, Tippett describes the various techniques used to create the sequence.
Deleted Scenes (480i; 1.33:1; 2:51): A "play all" function is included.

Villains of Old Detroit (480i; 1.78:1, enhanced; 16:59): "God bless that robot movie!" says Miguel Ferrer at the close of this retrospective documentary featuring the actors who played RoboCop's three main villains (misspelled in the opening credit as "Villians"), as well as Ray Wise, who played a member of Boddicker's gang and can't resist slipping in a reference to his famous role in Twin Peaks as Laura Palmer's dad. In addition to many interesting stories from the set, actors Ferrer and Kurtwood Smith do great Verhoeven impressions.
Special Effects: Then and Now (480i; 1.78:1, enhanced; 18:22): A discussion of the film's effects with Paul Sammon, William Sandell, matte painter Rocco Gioffre, ED-209 designer Craig Hayes and ED-209 animator Phil Tippett.
RoboCop: Creating a Legend (480i; 1.78:1, enhanced; 21:09): The focus of this documentary is on the creation of the RoboCop character, with substantial detail about the construction of the suit, choice of weaponry and development of Weller's performance. The participants include Weller, Neumaier, Miner, Verhoeven, Davison, Kurtwood Smith, Miguel Ferrer and Ray Wise.
Paul Verhoeven Easter Egg (480i; 1.78:1, enhanced; 0:38): This brief insert explains Verhoeven's accidental cameo in the film. It is also noted in the commentary.
Commentary with Director Paul Verhoeven, Writer Ed Neumeier and Producer Jon Davison: This is a lively, almost jovial commentary, as the three former collaborators exchange notes on who contributed what ideas, plot elements and lines of dialogue. Despite the frayed tempers and intense atmosphere described in the "Flesh and Steel" documentary, everyone seems perfectly happy to give credit to other members of the team. Much of the information related in the commentary is also covered elsewhere in the extras, but it gets a different spin when it's connected to action occurring on screen. (Note: The commentators mention several times that they are watching the R-rated theatrical version.)
Theatrical Trailer (1080p; 1.78:1; 1:38): This is one of the two trailers included on the 2004 MGM DVD. This one uses Brad Fiedel's Terminator score.
TV Spot (480i; 1.33:1; 0:31).
MGM 90th Anniversary Trailer: This plays at startup and is not otherwise available once the disc loads.
