  1. The whole "GU"-naming convention means little since those are company designations. We've seen "GPU" on the VF-0, "Gsh" on the SV-51, "MC" on the VF-17/171, or even "ESA" on the VF-25's wing root guns. Would they be considered a rail gun? Probably not. Normally, they would make mention of that fact in the specs if was. But we haven't seen anything to that effect. A beam gun could also be considered "cartridgeless".
  2. There is such a thing as a cartridge-less gun. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heckler_%26_Koch_G11 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerasimenko_VAG-73 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caseless_ammunition
  3. Sentinels == Robotech =/= Macross. Whether Zentradi-stuff from Sentinels-books is canon to Robotech is anybody's guess. But it sure isn't official canon to Macross by a long shot.
  4. It's a possibility. If HG wants monetary compensation for this piece of plastic, Hasbro can say "See you in court". The whole point of settle-out-of-court isn't that one side wins or loses. It's to avoid the scrutiny of the court and any after-effects. But we'll see if and how Hasbro responds to this.
  5. *Must con..tain... smart...ass * That would be truly outrageous. Truly, truly, truly outrageous.
  6. That won't be bad because then they actually have something that isn't a Macross toy. Ya know, something NEW.
  7. This means little to businesses. Or I should say, partners are only defined by the contracts connecting them. In Japan, not in the USA.
  8. Yeah, except it isn't us, primarily, doing the talking. We're just sitting back watching the show. To which I welcome them Hasbro-fanboy youngins to the Sued-by-HG club.
  9. They 300'd The 47 Ronin. You know the ronin all commit suicide at the end of that story right? Oh sorry, SPOILER ALERT.
  10. Only way this would go to court is if they drive the mediator crazy. The more cases that are settled out of court, the less grumpy the judge will be. And since HG is the plaintiff, the burden of proof is on them to show that Hasbro committed a violation of their trademark. If HG wins, you expect Hasbro reclaim all those toys they sold at SDCC? Really?
  11. Thought they wrote a script treatment. Maybe not?
  12. Yeah, and I watched it on Hulu for free. At work. During lunch. I want that bandwidth back but I know that won't happen. If the store asks, just say the DVD player won't play it. In fact, it shot it out as soon as you put it in.
  13. Not really. HG and Macross finished a long time ago. This is a brand new game. Considering this is a SDCC exclusive, there's not a lot of money from selling this. How many did they sell at SDCC? Does Hasbro plan on selling it again?
  14. Yes, it got mention earlier. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=36540&p=1063964 But since this toy is the offending piece of plastic, talk of this case should go here. And as I alluded to in the other thread, HG has now managed to piss off Macross, Mechwarrior and Hasbro fans now. Can't wait till Mattel gets some HG-love.
  15. Now Hasbro fans can join us Macross and Mechwarrior-fans. Welcomed to the club.
  16. For those bad game masochists out there: Aliens: Colonial Marines 'Stasis Interrupted' DLC tells the story of Hicks, out now
  17. Which is probably why they are just jumping to Batman/Superman. It's not like we have a generation that didn't see The Dark Knight Trilogy or doesn't know how Batman started. The best Bale-Batman voice was in Batman Begins. After that, it sounded like someone had serious throat cancer. As long as they don't go beyond that voice, I'll be happy.
  18. Oh Row-bow-tech. Causing Macross headaches since 1985.
  19. I have heard various reports that certain stars have been cast as key Nova Corps members. Hopefully, they'll make it to the final film. Would be a waste if they didn't use them. Nova suits look like...police uniforms. So no special powers for the Novas? Just people in uniforms?
  20. As I recall from the audio recording of the panel, they only used that line from TDKR as a teaser since most fans know that line. But as it won't be a versus-movie, Bats and Superman will probably fight once and argue. Synder even mentioned they are not adapting The Dark Knight Returns. Here's a clip with video from the panel: Synder and Goyer should ask the HISHE guys to write the humor for the movie. http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLimhOT0Avg-Q1zzIFxw0DOcBmDcat4bnK
  21. And now we have a title: Avengers: Age of Ultron. And they revealed the design of our villain.
