    Whichever one you like best, because you like him best! Just like when the Hulk regularly beats the stuffing out of Thor in my mind.

    This Terminator ?

    Robocop. The T-1's neck is not protected well enough, and one good shot would put it out of commission.

    Quick questions for my fellow Geeks of the 'Net.... I don't know if I'm just being literal or narrow minded about what a cyborg is or not.

    It's always bugged me that a Terminator classifies as a "cyborg". To me, the Terminator doesn't classify as a "cyborg" because it's an android covered in living tissue. Where as Murphy fits my definition of a cyborg because he started out human, died and then got better. (They had the technology . . . )

    So I'm not sure if I'm limiting myself and my interpretation of "cyborg" or not . . . ?

In THIS case, Robocop has access to all the resources of DPD, and the Terminator is limited to what it can scrounge. Advantage, Robocop.(OK, let's put a Terminator against a Mk XXXVI Bolo... ok, that didn't take long. Let's put Skynet and all it's resources against a Mk XXXVI Bolo... ok, that didn't take much longer.)
    Thing is Shadow, if Robo survived to help in humanities defense, he'd have access to the same cool weaponry as the Terminator would. So there wouldn't be any real disadvantage there.
    And even if the t-101 got sent back to Detroit where Robo reigns, unless it somehow crossed into an alternate timeline, it would have "detailed files" of the weapons of Robo's era and be able to acquire them the same way he did the "crude" weapons of our time. Again, I don't thing either would be at a disadvantage weapon-wise as they could both, however they managed it, acquire the same type of weapons.

    IMO, it's back to Robo's ability to think and adapt over the Terminators "Read-only" state of being . . .
