DETROIT - A group working to build a statue in Detroit of the fictional crime-fighting cyborg RoboCop says it has reached its fundraising goal of $50,000.

Brandon Walley of Imagination Station said Wednesday he's "very positive" the sculpture will become a reality and could be erected on land the nonprofit owns near the hulking, abandoned Michigan Central train depot in southwest Detroit.

Meanwhile, Mayor Dave Bing remains skeptical of the idea, telling The Associated Press he doesn't "see where we get a lot of value" out of immortalizing the alloy-encased cyborg from the 1987
science fiction flick.

The issue got its start Feb. 7 when Bing's social media manager responded to a query on Twitter about it.

Since then, it's become a top trending topic on a number of web sites.

I hope this happens. It would confuse the crap out of archaeologists and would be amazingly fitting for Detroit.
