    I thought the deviance in the depictions of the valks and characters were in preparation for them to lose their claim to SDF Macross. The art is crap anyway, so it doesn't matter.

    The legioss looks great. High hopes for a Tread to follow. On a side note: Anyone working on non armored/ plainclothes Stick and co figures to use the Riobot heads on?
  3. blackconvoy_D01
    This and a Dark Stick too.

    How does this coincide with the current Riobot Sentinel MOSPEADA offerings? And to @sjoebarry's question; what are breakers 2083?

    Got it from Redbox. Gonna watch it tonight and see.
  6. blackconvoy_D01
    For it's time, yeah.

    That is the key to victory!

    Sorry. When you mentioned a lack of Sentinel wanting to converse on MOSPEADA; I thought the worst and my mind went to the ride armors first. I'd love a Sentinel Legioss and Tread, but if something should happen; I'd at least want the Yellow Ride Armor to make it out.

    I hope they stay on track with Yellow. I really dont want a Ray.

    LOL. I remembered this pick recently; Interesting on the bike. I'll see if I can find it.

    @Seto Kaiba do you mean this hover cycle?

    Jennifer Connelly is fine as she is. And it was a good flick.

    It looks like he was going for a cross between the Vector and the Legioss Drone, based on the canopy.

    Here we go- how original (meaning the framing by the writer of the article) http://amp.denofgeek.com/us/books/robotech/282404/robotech-remix-designs-show-off-new-cast-exclusive

    But in 2019? It's more of a willful ignorance by the audience now, dont you think? What's HGs real plan for the next 5-10 years except for the same old? I dont see that LAM taking off. I was really joking in large part of my prior post- but I do believe; whole heartedly that the RT fanbase is somewhat lazy and unengaged in contrast to a Macross or TF fan. It's easier to settle for whats given to you instead of what you really want. As the customer/ fan; I can settle for the Kitzconcept 1S. Or I can acknowledge deep down that I cannot have a 1S without a strike cannon at/ near that scale; so I have to aim higher and get an Arcadia. But that's me now.

    Many reasons- imho and some observation; A) some are not really forward thinking as far as story and character development. If "Rick Hunter" doesnt even get a mention- the series is over. B) some are cheap and prefer older merch only/ mainly. Or lower end newer merch that breaks. They're not excited about a new VF-31 or the intricacy a similar collectable entails. Hell; HG is still pushing coffee mugs and hats from 2002 at a reduced rate. C) or it's too hard to break away from what's easy. Macross is super diverse from many facets. Robotech fans couldn't handle the level of range; from 7 to Frontier, etc. Repeat, slight tweak, reuse, repack the same old; stay in the bubble. They say they want something new and different; but do they really? No. I don't think so. I could go on, but will decide not too.

    OMG, YES- LOL

    I remember first becoming a community member and having a conversation with Gubaba, and he was showing me how you could literally plagerize and put the Robo-tech logo on anything and it would "work" LOL.

    VV wasnt a great anime rendition, but when I saw Dairugger- I was completely engaged. Awesome series.

    Furman has never, ever had great work- true; his stuff has always been all over the place- absolutelyno structurein his writing or world building. My favorite books of his was literally TF: G2 #1, that's it. For him to be taking on the mess that is Robowreck, just to make it more a disaster; I dont know what to compare it too. It's all just not good.

    So Robotech Remix is elements of Macross II, with notions of M7, with Dana/ The Masters, a Legioss, and a YF-1R? Man, you can just put anything into this soup and try to get ppl to eat it.

    https://www.tfkingdom.com/macross-robotech/ Good fit for the helmet. I'd like to try the letter for the opposite side of the helmet.

    Should have just stuck to Suicide Squad 2 and left it alone.

    The problem is no one is actually keeping track of this- anywhere. No one from BW is following the money. I shared the same sentiment when I look at one of my Macross shelf with hundreds of dollars worth of product for a commodity that's supposed to be only for a Japanese audience. How many of us are there outside of Japan- that are paying premium prices for products? Its beyond the US; true. But how many of us are there actually. 500, 1000, 5000? That's still not enough. Then there is the possibility that BW and Tatsunoko wants us to pay premium pricing and keep the value on the commodity within a limited capacity. But if they communicate with their Takara counterparts, they'd know that collectors at this level are willing to pay directly or even spend (at times) on 3rd Party products. Who knows anymore.
