    Your summary, maybe. But you hate everything Delta. I’m neither for nor against the show. A B- means it’s enjoyable enough. Not great, not the worst thing either. The problems apparently weren’t problem enough or it would have been given a C or a D or worse. B- isn’t bad.

    They need to hurry up and delete that song too.

    They're not backwards.

    Comparing the review on ANN with the speaker podcast they're in agreement. If you don't like the basic story you won't like the movie either. Things have been changed, moved around, addressed and dropped apparently all for the better, except for those of us who really like Mirage. The biggest complaint is if you don't know the story from the show you will be confused in the second half of this movie. Well, if you don't know the story of SDFM you won't know what the hell is going on from the very beginning of DYRL. So not really the greatest complaint other than they consistently haven't been able to make their stories clear in condensed form from the beginning of Macross. But the movie is fun to watch, the characters are all likeable and get their moments. It's not perfect but it's watchable and fun and well paced. For any of us fans who already know the show it'll all make sense. So a B- overall, according to both the Speaker podcast and ANN, is eminently watchable it's just not groundbreaking. That's actually amazing considering the source material.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Another thing to note, I know a lot of us are into the 31A above all and along with the image of Arad is a blurb about armored 31A’s but the speaker podcast guys pointed out in this same magazine they mention and depict characters who never appear in the film. Those are people with their own entries and actual images that never appear. The armored 31A’s are only a blurb in another characters description and nobody has mentioned them appearing on film so don’t expect anything about them at all.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Unless the missile parts on the boosters really heavily weigh the joints onnyhe wing roots down the majority of the additions are all on the legs for the most part. The upper body isn’t changed much from the regular supers. The ankles/toes will be the part to REALLY watch given the hips are now ratcheted on these.

    Actually it isn’t backwards. When stowed the grey bits push out the back of the packs. It’s facing forward there.

    Meanwhile, somewhere in Denver a couple of potheads haven't been able to figure out how to hand a package off to USPS for five days...

    It did not read lukewarm to me.

    Let us know what you think of that House of M Armor.

    That comment from Kawamori sounds like he would want to fix the show if he had the chance.

    That Level X track is G.A.R.B.A.G.E.
  13. Mommar
    I'm not clear what that means.

    That's an interesting fact about the clip films being a short-hand for people who missed the series. Given that the series are so effing expensive is streaming a big thing in Japan? Presumably you can watch a whole series of something without having to drop $150+ on a series.

    According to the description of Arads Valk in the toy thread it says the 31A’s were armored up and assisted Arad too. Does that even appear in the film?
  16. Mommar
    So did anybody describe how Chucks armor is colored? Or is it the same Red and White scheme?

    Why would the role of the 31A expand when everything else had to be compressed?

    I guess the Sentinel delays explain why we never saw any final product shots.

    So the music would just be background for the performances in this instance. I guess I should see what this band sounds like since “Techno” is a poor descriptor for someone like me who actually can differentiate the various styles of electronic music.

    I’ve never been a fan of Doug Drexlers designs. Also the 31’s arms are fine.

    I’ve considered getting the J because it’s so wtf. It is funny when people complain about the spindly pylons, then you scale it with other ships and realize they’re thicker than the Enterprise-D.
  22. Mommar
    You have the wacky J variant too?

    Most of the opinions expressed by the people from that link range between confusing and stupid. The things they want, don’t like and like are odd coming from this messageboard. I’m not sure anything they’ve said tells me whether it was good or bad. Their focus is so different.

    This isn't the first 1701. It's the Phase 2 version.
