    Not a fan of the forward swept wing? Or something else?
  2. I dunno. I'm not sure that within a fighter generation they have such granular control over downtuned engine specs that some smart people couldn't bring it back up to par, if they wanted to. I think it might be more of a materials/expense thing.
  3. The attack mode looks... odd.
  4. All this back story is quite intriguing (and completely new to me). I love the various -24 derived colonial valk designs but knowing what you guys said above, I'd be keen to see what Earth's most powerful fighter is like, circa Macross Delta timeframe...

    Me too. Seems a step backwards. Well, I don't find the spine *that* ugly, but no I don't think it gets any better than what's shown here. Too bad, I think the 1/72 did it a little nicer.
  6. Yeah I dunno. I don't find the "fighter-mode only for atmosphere" thing convincing, based on almost every other Macross story. Macross Plus, come on.

    Oh thank goodness the fighter can store articulated hands, not just the karate chop hands.
  8. Yes I obviously get that, thanks, but I was wondering if there was an in-universe explanation. Not looking for anything super convincing (it's Macross after all), just any explanation at all. That's reasonable.
  9. So... has there been any explanation why the Macross capital ships transform, other than the SDF-1? If I recall the SDF-1 had to transform in order to rewire some stuff to fire the cannon; i.e., the cannon wouldn't work unless the ship was configured in such a way. What is the purpose of the other ships (Battle-class, Elysion, Quarter, etc.) transforming? Why not just fire?
  10. Haha wow. I guess I won't be optimistic about this.
  11. I'm not sure how that relates, but yes I know that.
  12. What are the odds that someone would release a Battle-class (7/Frontier/Galaxy whatever) as a toy or model? Any plans that anyone knows of? It's my favorite Macross type capital ship.
  13. Well I'm wasted now, thanks dudes. But seriously. I always give Macross a lot of latitude in terms of implausibilities for story purposes, but Delta is really racking them up.
  14. I feel like I should take a drink every time they say "wind". Okay I get it, you like wind.
