The Penelope Gundam is just a full-armored Xi-Gundam. I have the Gundam Fix Figuration of the Xi-Gundam. It came with the option parts for the Penelope Gundam. I'm perfectly fine with Bandai releasing the MG version of the GN-X from Gundam 00. I really like the design and was really disappointed when they only released an HG 1/144 model of the suit. OK, I'm sold! I know what I'm getting myself for Christmas this year. After seeing the pictures, I have to have the PG 00 Raiser PG kit.

The problem with Robotech 3000 wasn't HG being cynical. It was the fact the fans rejected it. From what I've seen, and Seto will agree, is that the fans don't want all new designs. They want things that they're already familiar with, not something completely new and original.

Ugh, figures.

Any idea on how many enemies you have to fight in the extra mission, ? I got as far as before I ran out of time. I was just curious to see how many more things I have to fight.

I'm not afraid to say it. I have an Umi and Fuu doll! Whle she's not a Rayearth doll, I also own a Miki Koishikawa doll from Marmalade Boy. My Umi doll, however, is wearing Miki's school outfit. I wound up buying a naked Umi doll from a friend of mine that bought her in order to get her Magic Knight uniform. This was at Project A-Kon way back in '98. The funny part of this story is the fact that I wound up having Umi wear a styrofoam cup so I wouldn't be carrying around a naked Umi during the convention. I got a few laughs out it, too.

Ah, but we do know that Hikaru and Misa got married and had a child. It's in the timeline. http://macross.anime.net/wiki/2012 and http://macross.anime.net/wiki/2013

My DM from work told me that he had two Samsung TVs that wound up having bad boards. Sounds like a pretty common issue with Samsung HDTVs.

I really love fantasy versus reality, especially when Robotech is involved Fantasy, from guess who. I asked a friend in England about this. She told me that the fan base wasn't very big, just very vocal.

But, Knight26, that was the fun of the movie! I love watching films like this just to see how bad they get the science wrong. That, and the improbable escapes that the characters make. Oh, and I always also find the mass destruction of these films pretty entertaining, too!

Too bad for them that so many of us are seeing right through their bullshit.

I asked the very same thing in that very thread!

Pete's just jealous cause she's not licking HIS gun!

Damn you, Gubaba! I can actually hear the announcer's voice in my head saying that! I can hear her saying it in Japanese and English, to boot! God, I miss the Yamanote line's announcer! Too bad they changed it the last time I was there. The voice sounds similar, yet different. Maybe she had a cold when she recorded the newer version of the station announcements.

Maybe Gamlin moonlights as a traffic cone?

Where were Maverik's claims posted? I don't recall seeing it at rt.com. I wouldn't say that everyone that liked the Transformers movies are morons. I enjoyed them for exactly what they were, mindless action flicks.

There aren't enough words to describe how awesome that piece looks!

I'm in the same boat as David. I only recognized Eva 01 right off the bat. I could totally recognize some of the others after they were mentioned by other people.

I love the little SD Hikaru!

The withdrawal period will be the two years between episodes 36 and 37!

Ah, Keith, thanks for showing me that I'm not alone in what I'd like done to the original series!

Bigger playing area is a must, especially when you're fighting large enemies like Battle Galaxy. Ideally, they should change it so that you can only go a certain distance away from the main target. However, making a wraparound playing area would work, too.

Does watching each episode on the day (if it's provided) that it would supposedly take place if Macross was real count as being an addict?

Well, Wanzer, I don't recall ever seeing a movie preview or teaser trailer and have the movie not appear in theaters.

Sally S Ford ain't so bad, either!

I don't know about the ships, but the standard VF-27 is awarded after you finish the final enemy mission. This is the mission where you fight, Alto & Brera, the Quarter, the Battle Frontier, and the Vajra Queen.
