Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
Seto Kaiba replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
The YF-19/VF-19's wing folds backwards for storage, not up. The wing in this shot is no longer physically connected to the aircraft. That, combined with the fact that the leading edge slats are damaged and one section is straight-up missing, along with visible damage along the entire length of the wing, implies that this wing did not go gently... it hit something and was likely broken off. To be fair, that was hardly a problem unique to Isamu. The YF-19 had six prior test pilots before Isamu was assigned to Project Super Nova. Four of Isamu's six predecessors were hospitalized with injuries they'd sustained during testing and the other two died from injuries sustained in accidents during testing. The YF-19's performance was pushing the limit of what the human body could withstand in terms of g-forces thanks to its exceptional acceleration and maneuverability, and the previous-gen ANGIRAS airframe control AI used in the first two prototypes was absolutely not up to the job and as a result the prototype had extremely unforgiving handling. (That Isamu was able to not only handle the YF-19 in testing but draw out its full potential and even enjoy the experience is a testament to what an absolute goddamn MONSTER he is in the cockpit.) -
I was looking at the line art again and I can't figure out how a pilot is supposed to fit in there. I know, anime magic... But it seems extremely cramped in there! Also, what are all those squiggly bits surrounding the pilot?

Yeah, if you factor in the Legioss and Tread combining, then 1/48 scale seems to be the logical size for these. I doubt that Pose+ will produce a matching Tread unless they make a killing with the Legioss or if it's crowdfunded.

But when you combine the Sentinel Legioss and Tread (or the Toynami Alpha and Beta), the combined fighter becomes a big bastard.

What Current Anime Are You Watching Version v4.0
kajnrig replied to wolfx's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
The humor isn't landing for me. I initially thought it's just because I'm old, but after some more consideration, I think the show is just bad at it. The timing is weak, the dialogue choice is poor... It may have worked better for a younger and/or more Japanese audience, but I'm tuning out those sections. Zenitsu is annoying as duuuuuuuck. I'm eagerly awaiting the story getting past this early phase so he can become tolerable. -

I wouldn’t say that the Riobot Legioss is too small. If you're looking for a massive shelf presence, then yeah it can seem small and the Pose+ is what you'll want. But ever since going in on the HMRs, I've found myself picking up and playing with those more, and just leaving the 1/60s on display. So, yeah, I get the playability factor and I might just give the Toyrise a chance whenever they get around to making the OG versions.

@Urashiman those both came out great! @Big s I agree. It’s very regal indeed. In the Manga the Vaiola is not destroyed during the confrontation with the Terror Mirage, but rather captured since it was one of a kind and viewed as important to save intact.

Yeah, that one hit pretty hard. I remember Saturday morning cartoons and there’d be days when some lame golf tournament would pop up in place of a cool cartoon favorite. I get that it’s a relaxing game to play, but it’s a game that never should have been televised. And maybe the only game where the kid’s version is a thousand times more enjoyable. T-ball meh, but miniature golf is a fun way to spend a day even as an adult. Heck I’d rather see a cool miniature golf tournament on tv than real golf

That seems to be the implication in his bio. He's not mentioned as having moved to the 37th fleet and it is explicitly mentioned he's not legally a citizen of the fleet... meaning he's only ever resided in that rundown unregistered district. Pretty much. Even in-universe Basara's background is said to be unknown even to the man himself. He doesn't know where he was born. Ray encountered him for the first time in 2031 when Basara was 7 years old, and he was just this mysterious urchin who would occasionally show up near where Ray lived with an acoustic guitar and attempt to (literally) move the nearby mountains with his songs. Somewhere along the way Ray became Basara's de facto (if not de jure) guardian. They would eventually team up with street fighter turned drummer Veffidas Feaze to form Fire Bomber in 2038, the same year the 37th fleet departed Earth. The one thing we can say with some confidence is that Basara has always been insufferable. Mylene was the band's fourth bassist in six years because of how infuriating and hard to work with Basara was, and even she frequently wants to go upside his head.
