    As Seto said, the arms are in the body area. But in dyrl, things were pretty gruesome, like one of the Nousjadeul Ger suits being torn in half and a head getting smooshed. Recently there’s the artwork for Max’s Queadluun Rau model kit where in the lower corner you can see one very unfortunate Nousjadeul Ger taking a catastrophic hit to his nethers sending his legs off into the void That leg might be orbiting earth for a few decades

    Either that or someone's been digging around in that storage facility where Quamzin got his. IMO, the stealth pods in VF-X are almost certainly Human-designed and built. Well, it was used by a predominantly Zentradi anti-Latence faction (Black Rainbow) so it would make a certain amount of sense for it to accommodate a giant pilot. Doubly so given that it seems to be built as a four-legged battle pod and shares a lot of design similarities with the Golg Gants Charts heavy attacker. Oh, no there's only one of the Quimeliquola factory satellites in Human hands as far as we know... which was placed in orbit of Eden, and restored by General Galaxy in the 2030s to satisfy the New UN Gov't demand for a way to maintain its Queadluun battle suit units.

    I always imagine this thing so glam, I never thought about how good it could look a little smudged up!

    I get the feeling that someone ran out of ideas again, or just ran out of money again

    Hmm... a few errors in this latest one. Both of the noteworthy ones being connected to some of the chapter's most interesting and unusual points. The first one is that this chapter makes the Macross Delta novelization one of the few publications to acknowledge the existence of the VF-31 Kairos's B variant. More interestingly, the novelization presents the VF-31B as the predecessor to the Siegfried custom rather than the VF-31A as is generally assumed and implied by the Macross Delta animation. This seems to have unintentionally been changed to VF-31A in the translation, though? The second is the very unusual mention of the VC-19V VIP-Calibur. This is one of the even rarer moments of official setting materials acknowledging something that originated in the Master File books. Normally when they tap those books for info they're doing it for technological key terms like ARIEL/ANGIRAS, the meaning of acronyms, etc. This might be the first time they've brought in an original design from Master File. There is another translation error here though, it's written VIPカリバー not VIPカリバーン, so the name should be "VIP Calibur" as in the Master File book not "VIP Caliburn". Interestingly, what Messer describes is a little different to the VIP Calibur in Master File. The aircraft he describes must be a newer/later variant of the VIP Calibur specification as he describes it as possessing an Inertia Store Converter to protect the VIPs from high g-forces. The original version of the VIP Calibur (c.2050) predates the availability of the ISC and just has five g-force seats in the passenger compartment. Unfortunately, this nod to Master File comes at the immediate price of the story having to engage in some spectacular pants-on-head imbecilic reasoning to try explain why such an incredibly useful thing isn't being used. Why? Because the New UN Government - who are A-OK with Xaos having a Macross-type warship, a full squadron's worth of the latest 5th Generation main VFs, and five Gen 5.5 ace custom machines with Fold Wave Systems - considers it too dangerous to sell this 20+ year old, previous-gen, unarmed transport aircraft to a private company. The Macross Galaxy Corporate Army can field an entire squadron of VF-19C's just so their parent company can flex on Shinsei Industry and SMS's forces can have dozens of VF-19E's for combat use, but this unarmed VF-19C that can't transform... no that's much too dangerous for Xaos to have.🤣

    I feel like I need to get you a copy of Blender so you can play with these crazy ideas yourself! 😉 I like the idea of a badass heavy gun for the 24 (which is why the 11 gunpod was the one that came to mind first), and also appreciate having a lineage from that to the 25 armaments. I'll look to come back to it in a bit and play with some new ideas. I also just stumbled into a copy of Kawamori's Valkyrie Designer Notes and saw his development sketches for the 25, which include a pile of rejected head ideas that now make me want to go back and try again on those, too. In the meanwhile, I threw pieces of the 25 and 31 super packs onto the plane to see what ideas it might spark, This mix feels like the direction I want to go, though I might add in some of the armored parts as well. Also struck me that rather than edit the 25 parts to fit the extended back and shortened shield, this might be an opportunity to give the 24 a full size shield that extends the buckler and makes the super pack actually useful in a defensive sense. We'll see as I play with it more.

    New display somewhere, confirms that the Melquiyan Army Unit will come with a regular trooper pilot and the regular Scopedog in February will also come with Chirico blue hair piece! Honestly think they should have given this unit a different number!

    Since we've seen a few of them in games like M3, VF-X2, and 30, it can be safe to say that someone in the galaxy has been reproducing them since. Not sure if I want to count the Glaug Kai/Stealth Glaug as an upgraded unit due to the sheer size of it and the other stealth pods in Digital Mission VF-X. They make even the Monster series look tiny. On the topic of game only Zentradi units, I always wondered what was the pilot accommodation of VF-X2's Gjagravan-Va, since there doesn't seem to be any official stats of it. I assumed it was like the VB-6 where there was a pilot and two officers handling communications and other weapons, but Kodachi seemed to think that it's able to be piloted by giants, as Laplamiz was in control of one in the 30 novelization. Oh I meant like, I thought there was only one Queadluun-Rau factory satellite instead of two; one they got from the 20 and the other one they got in 2035, unless I'm just getting myself confused again lol.

    As this is a Macross thread and not a Robotech thread, this probably isn't the place for that question. CD Japan just put up for preorder the Macross Frontier Galaxy Live Final 2025 Blu ray. It looks to be a limited release version, and I don't know much about it. It's listed at 17.000 yen, so as of today, just over $109.

    1/100 Tomahawk looks great. Will see if it comes on Mandarake later on in April / May. Thinking if i do actually get it, if I should paint the main body in light grey or a maybe white primer, to match my HMR valks display shelf... Also, i kind of do like the grey prototypes!!! hehehe
