He was the star of the video game Robotech: Battlecry.
If anything he was a Rick Hunter replacement; look at that hair and the fact that he's a major wuss. Sadly, just about all the characters in Battlecry were mor eor less soulless copies of the original Macross cast.
The game was crappy(stupid ceiling limits like what? 100 feet off the ground?)and the characters are ANNNNNNOYING! it's like, I don't need some bridge bunny giving me instructions every freaking five minutes! In a real combat scenario, you want to keep radio silence at all times.
TDK? they should just stick to making VHS tapes and cassette tapes.
