  1. wish there was a HD version of the video, that way, I can pin down the transformation sequence.
  2. I've actually been building Veritechs/Valkyries in Lego since I was a teen. And as of now, I actually have a Veritech Hovertank fully transformable into all three modes and poseable as a lego moc. But right now, I'm currently in the process of upgrading the design and color scheme to match an actual military design. These pics below show my current militart-style moc-up for the Hovertank MOC, and as of this writing, I've purchase all the parts I need to build it IRL, I'm just missing a few key parts which I'm currently waiting for arrival. Like my SV-303 Vivasats, I built the Hovertank moc in Bricklink Studio:
  3. First off, Merry Chritmas, Everyone! Anyways, I myself have attempted to build a full Lego MOC of the SV-303 Vivasvat over a year ago in Bricklink Studio when I first saw images and video of this craft. I made mine to migifigure scale, with Hayate Immelmann's azure blue colors, using affordable lego parts in actual Dark Azure Blue. Now, because there weren't any clear close-up detailed pics of the Vivasvat at the time, I had to make guesses on how the transformation would work into all four modes. For the body that makes up the head and torso, I made the transformation work with technic lifearms to wedge the cockpit and back-wings together, and hedges to fold the nose cone and under-plate underneath the cockpit module. Even though the big gun turrets are actually behind the head until, I made them part of the head's "hood" that folds up in Battloid Mode. You can see how the torso parts transform in the final photos. Everything else is the same, with the arms folding into the sides of the body, and the back-wings w/ boosters folded to the bottom with the lower arms, and the large legs and wing-thighs folding into the back part of the wing-span. I personally do love how the "X-wing" and Gerwalk modes came out. The only problem I have with the overall design is the wing-thighs being "too long/big" making the Battloid mode look awkward from a side-view. I plan to rework the design in my next re-build. The final photo is are five SV-303s all in available Delta Squad colors, Dark Blue, Dark Red, Dark Azure, Green, and Orange. If anyone who builds lego mocs in Bricklink studio wants a copy of the io file for the build, just reply. Merry Christmas!
  4. After seeing Bernard-Chan's "Macross S" concept art for his own Valkyrie designs, I would just love to see a Macross series/OVA that focuses on Man Vs. Machine, like Gundam does - maybe have "different factions" with different Valkyries representing those factions, like seen in Bernard-Chan's work on ArtStation: https://www.artstation.com/uzuki
  5. "Gundamification" of VFs? I say bring it on. It can be the ultimate Crossover, with the both themes of Man Vs. Machine and the Love Triangle and Culture being merged. It be both interesting and new to me.
  6. Lovely design. Do you have an LFX file for Lego Digital Designer? I would love to try and built one. You have instructions?
  7. Yeah, seen progress on Them Fightin' Herds. Good character design, and good story setting, from what I read on their site. I'm just waiting to see when the game will officially be out.
  8. Yeah, during season 5, I think, Twilight & the Mane6 had a nemesis name Starlight Glimmer, and at the end of the last episode of S5, she became Twilight's "student" all the way through season 6. And at the end of Season 6, Starlight, along with Trixie & Discord, manage to turn the Changeling Hive into good. Except for Queen Chrysalis, she escaped. Oh! and during Season 5, the Cutie Mark Crusaders got their Cutie Marks. IDK what S7 going to do, other than Starlight graduating from being Twi's student, and William Shatner guest staring in an episode. Season starts up on Arp. 15th.
  9. Glad you approve. I recently update the hovertank MOC to make more show accurate, but I have yet to take any pictures. Once I do, I'll show you want I did.
  10. AND, since I could not find anyone doing up a ATAC-01-SCA Spartas/Veritech Hovertank, I had to do one up as well. Comes w/ extra parts for Yellow "Generic" Veriant, and space gear. Pilots are Dana Sterling, and Louis Nickles:
  11. My "deluxe" take on MaxVF1's valkyrie MOC of the VF-1J Hikaru, w/ extra parts for super pack, and VF-1D two-person varient:
  12. Wow! my topic is still here? Well, at least that counts for something. I found a good Robotech/MLP crossover on FIMFiction: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/62299/robotech-a-new-world Now if only they can do a Macross crossover.
  13. Favorite character? Max Jenius/Max Sterling. Enough said.
  14. My first impression of Star Wars rebels - not bad, but not actually worth my time. When the light saber came out, I was surprised they had Kyle Kataarn doing the old-school style of fighting. It kinda makes it feel like the original trilogy of sorts. But at the same time, I was hoping he would off some killer moves like the Jedi in the prequels. Well either way, the show is just not worth my time. Maybe only when there's nothing else on, I guess. Sorry.
  15. I'm building up a revamp of VF-1Max's moc-ups, utilizing the full 3-jointed legs for the Gerwalk-Mode. I'm just waiting on a few pieces from a store on Bricklink to complete it.
  16. Guys, I look these up on eBay, and they go for lile $400-$700. @__@;
  17. Just got finished seeing the remake, and all I can say is while the special effects are topic notch, the story, as with any remake, sucks. The original was a million times better. Hell, even the synopsis for the original book was better than this. 1 out of 5 stars.
  18. I'm wondering if anyone out here on the Macross forums has ever got into watching "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic"? Am I the only brony here for that matter? If this topic is unacceptable for the forum, please feel free to delete. But if it's alright to post here, then alrighty then. Anyways, I'm posting this to see if any Macross fans are also Bronies and follow the current incarnation of MLP and its fandom. Also, while on the topic, I have some ideas for a Macross crossover with MLP:FiM. I'll continue if this topic stays up. But for now, I want to find out the following: "'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.' Like it or not? If so, what you like about it?"
  19. I got the whole VanDread series on DVD. Current anime I'm watching: Accel World Recent anime: Nadia: Secret of Blue Water
  20. At times like this, I wish there was a english translation for this manga.
