  1. It may happen. Let's face it HG, doesn't have much of a creative unit. Most of their work focuses on 3rd party licensing (i.e., buying up international distribution rights and then selling them off elsewhere). That's probably the case. BW never came back until Macross II in 1991/92. Kawamori didn't come back till a year later and he wasn't even planning to do Plus as a Macross series. And if Tatsunoko couldn't commit to any Macross for whatever reasons, I'm sure BW asked around for who else was available (i.e. the various animation studios and Bandai). It was fairly quiet until 2003 when the whole mess started. It's not the first time a franchise goes dark because the people behind it move on to other things.
  2. This gets asked practically every page so here's my pre-recorded response:
  3. Talk to EXO or whomever was at MW Con '09. They can tell you what Tommy is like outside his RT/HG-controlled environment.
  4. That and they cost money to do. Which is why they tried to reuse whenever they could and why they never had many location shoots.
  5. It's not even a fold out sheet.... MDEs, Foldwave sound tech....feels like there will be lots of filler... How about Sheet #1?
  6. Now you're mixing production materials of the show with in-universe issues. While that may be true from our POV as a 3rd party observer, within the scope of the Macross-universe, it's a bit more cloudy.
  7. Should have been clearer. My post was in reference to this: I'd hate to walk in on that in the real world...that ain't Elmer's glue all over the room.
  8. I'd asked how you think all of that would be possible with holo-bands but at the same time, I think that's something best left to the imagination.
  9. That's all it is though, an assumption. While there may be common technology being worked on with the F-14 experiment group and the VF-0, how they fit into their roles would be different. New tech was worked into the F-14 experiment program while the VF-0 use new tech to build from the ground up.
  10. Actually, they said the VF-0 inherited the F-14's experimental testing group, not that it was based off the F-14. And it's larger because of the engines.
  11. If he cries about it, he can't do anything about it anyways. So post away!
  12. Maybe that's part of my disappointed with the RT kids that come here. If this thread is on their first set of stops, then they're here to cause trouble. Which earns them very low marks and makes me inclined to ban them right then and there. We have had and continue to have people come here just for this thread. They never even bothered to see that we have a Toys and Models sections, or even have threads about other things.
  13. Why is it all these RT fans gravitate toward this thread first??? [action=facepalm] Yeh, don't answer that. [/action]
  14. I blame EXO for this. Ruin the movie 2 months before it comes out... *grumble grumble*
  15. It depends on your definition of colonization. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/colonizing http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/colony http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/settle Now yes, setting up a military base is "colonizing" an area. But military bases aren't really permanent establishments. When we think of colonizing, we think more of Macross, Southern Cross, BSG, or Star Trek colonizing. As in leaving our known solar system.
  16. Ain't that the truth..... Even with the rebate price of a SSD, I could get a 1TB hard drive for cheaper. Google SSD vs hard drives and you'll see a pages of comparisons between the 2.
  17. No. Just because it was based on a Vajra doesn't mean it actually calls Vajra.
  18. As I've said, they've rolled in the past 5 years of popular anime, and then some, into 1 series. You want transforming planes? Its got it. You want wicked finishing moves? Its got that, too. You want aliens? Yeh, its got that. Hell, it's even got the "Red Comet" and a masked character.
  19. You're probably thinking about how chaff countermeasures work. Chaff, as you know, creates a large cloud of metal shards which stay in the air and flutter much longer than used brass of a gun. Spent casings would fall out in a more linear fashion, creating a thin line.
  20. For the most part, the spent casings are ejected away and would disappear rather quickly so I won't worry that much about the casings affecting stealth. SkullLeaderVF-X, for more information, I would suggest reading up on the Heckler & Koch G11 regarding more information about caseless ammo and its modern applications (keep in mind, guns, like muskets, were caseless back in the day ). One other issue is energy consumption. Something that the VF-0's entries in the Chronicle mention is while Battroid-mode uses only a small bit of power, while energy converting armor while in Battroid consumes a a majority of the rest of the energy. So any beam weapon would have to compete with other systems for power. But, the one overriding issue with beam weapons as primary weapons is costs.
  21. For the people who are still alive...
  22. *tap tap tap* http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXUYhFz-SwI Lacking patience, children these days...mmmmph.
  23. I'm gonna go with "No".
  24. I believe that scene described what happened in past tense. Million of years ago, they mated with another hive.
  25. THERE SETO, ARE YOU HAPPY NOW????? And you people think I complain about the VF-1 being all over the Chronicles is bad... Respectively. There's no pleasing him...
