Valkyrie Variation foldout.
The Zentradi! Or the very interesting spelling as 'Zjenthlauedy'. Since Macross is Japanese, and a direct letter by letter translation is impossible I'm never a stickler for romanji spellings. Millia is Milia is Miria.
Macross event schedule for Summer 1984
Here is an insert that came with an Orguss kit. It's interesting to note that even though by the time this kit came out, the second model manual that had BOTH Orguss and Macross in it is not featured. Instead, the Macross ONLY manual is shown. A little circumstantial evidence that at this time IMAI was beginning to worry about it's Macross line and was pushing it even inside it's Orguss kits.
