just some modeler guy Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I used to have this Macross movie on VHS, but I lent it out and never got it back. It is set after SDF-1 had come back to Earth in South America, and is in the period between Macross and Robotech masters. In the movie the SDF is re-activated for a short time. The issue is that I'm trying to find the titlle, and possibly another copy. I've searched Wiki, and the net, even youtube comes up nil, but there seems to be no record of the movie in the chronologies I've found. It's as if it didn't exist, but it's over 2 1/2 hrs long. Any help or direction to look would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tober Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) That sounds more like Robotech than Macross.There was Robotech: The Movie which was a re-edit of Megazone 23. I don't think it was 2 1/2 hors long tho and I'm not sure where it fit into the Robotech chronology.Otherwise there is Robotech II: The Sentinels, but that was set after New Generation.

vlenhoff Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) Do you remember love. A Macross/robotech movie you might want to watch. Edited February 3, 2013 by vlenhoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atharun Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) The SDF-1 being reactivated briefly makes me think of Macross II: Lover's Again but that is not part of Robotech...but it's the only thing I can think of as the Macross is activated briefly at the end to take a shot at the Marduk mother ship.

Phyrox Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 The Sentinels wasn't set after the New Generation, it does take place after the Macross Saga and before the Robotech Masters. I guess it fits the OP's description, although there wasn't much to go on. Characters? Plot? Scenes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent ONE Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 The SDF-1 was reactivated briefly makes me think of Macross II: Lover's Again but that is not part of Robotech...but it's the only thing I can think of as the Macross is activated briefly at the end to take a shot at the Marduk mother ship. I think this is what he is talking about. Zero to do with Robotech, in this universe there are no RT Masters and there is no magic plant called Protoculture. Familiar?

The Shade Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 It might help if you told us where you saw this. In the US? Europe? South America? Also, from the brief description, it almost sounds like either Macross 2 (due to the over 2½ hour length), or some sort edit of the last 9 Macross episodes (though I'm not aware that there's ever been any kind of edit like what Modeler Guy is describing).

Gubaba Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 It might help if you told us where you saw this. In the US? Europe? South America? It would also help if we knew WHEN he saw it. Mid-80's? Late '80's? Early '90's? Based on his plot description, though, I agree with the others that it's probably Macross II... but the "Movie" version didn't come out until... what, '95 or so?

FHE during one of their VHS releases condensed the Macross saga's 36 episodes down to 6 two hour volumes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry the lone wolf Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 When I read this I thought he was referring to Clash of the Bionoids but I'm thinking he's talking about Macross 2. It had no connection to Robotech but I can see the confusion especially because of the Marduk. I always felt they were little "Robotech Masterish" for Macross. US Renditions did make it clear that this was a sequel to Macross Do You Remember Love but in their ads they were trying to attract fans of Robotech or at least people who watched the Macross portion of RT. FHE had complilation VHSs of Robotech: The Macross Saga that included all 36 episodes in condensed edited form. It even included the Robotech Masters episode that linked the two generations.

azrael Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Before we go any further, the OP needs to provide a lot more details. As much as we want to help you, details might help. Images might too. I'd start searching Youtube for clips of SDF Macross, SDFM: DYRL?, Macross II, Megazone 23, Southern Cross, Mospeada, or Robotech. Try looking for images of these particular shows. If none of these clips jog your memory, then I'm gonna have to ask "Are you sure this had anything to do with Macross?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Silly Keith... the SDF-1 doesn't reactivate in Megazone... But it does in ROBOWRECH THE MOTIONLESS PICTURE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gubaba Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 But it does in ROBOWRECH THE MOTIONLESS PICTURE No, it doesn't. "Dana Sterling" becomes a man, and "Mark" and "Becky" live happily ever after ON EARTH, but the SDF-1 is nowhere to be seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
