Yeah, the style of that movie was weird, but I am absolutely on board for some fancy sets recreating it. I would absolutely pick up a new UCS Batwing from that movie as well, since I think it would need to be that size before you could get the style replicated well.

As a long-suffering fan of the original Lunar games... folks have no idea how true this is. You think you want a remake until it happens, misses the point and every adjacent point along the way, and effectively erases the original in the process. I JUST WANT A NEW COPY OF THE SILVER STAR, GAME ARTS. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
JB0 replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
It occurs to me this is probably a direct response to Space War 1, and what we learned about the history of the galaxy at large and Earth's aggressors. The tale of the zentradi and the protoculture stands as a very large warning sign that has "don't make custom-engineered supersoldiers" written very large and in an awful lot of blood. -

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
Seto Kaiba replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
Macross Frontier and later works use the term "implant" as a generic/catch-all term for any kind of cybernetic implant. Both the series proper and supplemental material indicate that there are laws governing the use of implant technology both at the local government level and the central New UN Government level. The New UN Government imposed strict regulations and restrictions on cybernetics research after the First Space War in order to keep humanity's cybernetics research focused on humane and ethically-sound medical applications and outlaw research aimed at weaponizing cyborgs. The kind of implants that are legal everywhere (incl. Frontier) are medically-necessary organ and limb replacements. The kind of thing used to repair catastrophic injuries like the loss of a limb or an eye. The few examples we've seen suggest that these implants don't exceed the performance of the original human body parts they replaced and look visibly artificial. (Macross R's Oscar Brauhitsch has a cybernetic arm, which looks more like Ed's automail arm from Fullmetal Alchemist than a convincing counterfeit human arm.) The restrictions on elective implants seem to have been relaxed a little c. the late 2040s, since that's when we see the Macross Galaxy fleet change its local laws to explicitly permit elective implant surgery for things like "the internet in your brain" multimedia/network implants. We've seen a few wealthy and well-connected folks living elsewhere also have those implants, so presumably they were legalized in other places as well after restrictions were relaxed. Frontier's ban on all but medically necessary implants is supposedly driven mainly by the fleet's bioplant environment system which recycles all organic material. Implants aren't biodegradable/recyclable after all, and would have to be manually removed from the body before processing could take place. Summing up... Frontier, Uroboros, etc. are probably far more representative of the galactic norm on cybernetics. You might get a couple rich idiots who paid a fortune to get their brains hooked up to the WiFi, but most people are in factory condition. -
If you enjoy never before seen pre-production art , pick up the new book ART OF BATTLE – Koichi Ohata Robot Chronicle https://japanese-creative-books.com/product/illustration/art-of-battle-koichi-ohata-robot-chronicle/ 10 pages full of good stuff. I think at least 90% I've never seen before. And if you like Galvion art, there is stuff in here too which isn't even in that Galvion book released a while ago. Go buy this-its cheap and very cool

I do know that sometimes Bandai stuff is a week behind when they go up for preorder here, but if they’re just waiting on the Tariff stuff to calm down or go away, I’m kinda ok with that. I just don’t wanna totally miss out on the only sh figuarts item that got my interest in the last couple years

Yeah the level of visceral violence in the second game was nearly a character itself, Ellie and Abby both go to great lengths for revenge, and their path there is frakking brutal. like, put the controller down for an hour brutal.

I think due to the stupid tariff situation Bluefin/Bandai is hesitant about releasing stuff in the US right now. I was reading lots of different Tamashii Nations stuff isn't popping up on US sites right now, Metal Build Gundam, Figuarts, Monsterarts, Chogokin, etc.

As I said...I had no knowledge of the game's events so was just enjoying the show without any expectations....but killing off your main character is pretty bold, regardless of the media....it's a great show so far, so will give them the benefit of the doubt that they can keep it going....

It's why I want see the producers (who also are the game's creators) recreate some of those kill montage videos folks have posted on YT. I really want the producers to show us how much anger and brutality Ellie is willing to demonstrate to get to Joel's killers. I really want the producers to SHOW, not tell us, how far Ellie is willing to go to get revenge.

I kinda thought they’d offer it up already since a lot of other figures showed up for preorder that were up that night. I keep checking the American sites and none of the ones I use have shown it for preorder yet, maybe next week hopefully

I don't know, Joel was a solid character, but I just didn't get as attached as others did from the first game, especially at the end, I figured someone somewhere should be wanting revenge, and there you go. I also loved the story of Last of Us 2, I know it's dark, and the message is pretty much revenge is bad and the cycle to seek it never ends, but it made perfect sense within the context of the first game's events. And the Abby "twist" was fantastic, I loved seeing the other side and getting dual protagonists basically being the other character's antagonist, it all worked for me.
