    At a guess the reason Hikaru started as a Sargeant instead of a Corporal lime Max and Kakizaki is because he already knew how to fly (and he'd already been in combat in a valkyrie) so he didn't have to go through badic flight training so was able to get some additional officer/NCO training.

    If you want Macross II references you might want to watch M7 again. A lot of the background music in the first few episodes come from MII.

    Also the Metal Siren from Macross II

    Just thought I should point out that Kusanagi's brain was always organic. The cyberbrain is an implant that interfaces with her brain, cybernetics, the ports in her neck etc. Even the almost 100% organic human, Togusa has a cyberbrain (the cyberbrain and it's related connections and ports are his only cybernetics)

    Crap. Seriously though, Robotech Remix is the latest robotech comic series. There is a thread about in the anime or sci-fi section.

    Macross II was released in both english dubbed and subtitled versions on VHS then rereleased as a 'movie' version. DVD has both english dub and subtitle tracks. It was Manga Ent., not US Manga Corps, that released them (originally US Renditions for Macross II)

    Thanks Seto.

    Is there any information about how the VF-24 compares to the VF-25, VF-27 or YF-29? How about the YF-29 vs. YF-30? I'm asking because I've gotten into a debate with someone about these and whether or not Zola (and the Macross 7 fleet) got monkey models of the VF-19 and, unfortunately all I can find on the Macross Mecha Manual about the 24 is on the Evolution.

    Somehow I doubt it'd be that good. I epexct The Room quality of dialogue.

    This is shockingly similar to an idea I had.
  11. camk4evr
    Hmmm. I'm not sure but I think they failed their stealth check.

    Wait wouldn't that tend to make your racing career fairly short?

    You recall correctly, Seto. Looks like it, Sanity. It's a bit hard to tell as the art work is somewhat different and the box in the pic is black (my copy is mostly white) but I believe it's that one. As to the price; you can pretty much thank HG for that as I'm pretty sure Frontier would have been lisenced over here if it weren't for them

    Damn. Beat me to it

    In 2012(?), after Kamjin and Lap Lamis killed themselves attacking the Macross, in the last episode of the original series, she underwent a refit (the first of many that she'd undergo between then and the current time in the Macross franchise) which made her look like the DYRL version.

    On the Macross 7 trivia page on TV tropes they paraphrase an ADV -they didn't say who so make of this what you will (personally I just find it an amusing quote)- who was asked about Macross 7 at a con.

    You know what's really odd is that the ship is much clearer in the picture of the cover no3Ljm posted than the actual book cover I saw in the store.

    So I was a the grocery store today and saw Ben Bova's "Apes and Angels" and saw somthing familiar on the cover: https://www.publishersweekly.com/978-0-7653-7952-8 I'm trying to find a better picture of the cover

    Not that weird. Orguss has a lot of Macross references

    At a monthe short of my 42 b-day I'd probably be dead.
  21. camk4evr
    So how do the VF-19 and VF-22 compare to the VF-29, Vf-31, and YF-30?

    Sorry, I actually intended to post more earlier but had to leave for work and azrael brought up a point I would have made if I had had more time. Yes and no. In ship mode the cannon is fixed forward and to turn the ship left or right to reposistion the cannon will take longer, and require more effort, than it would in storm attacker mode. This video, starting at 24:30 demonstrates this (I remember this demonstartion being done in my highschool physics class) Further, the firing arc is significantly larger than the ship form, especially for newer Macross's which put the cannon on an 'arm mount' instead of the booms of the original. Also, the storm attacker mode of newer Macross's allow the ships to sweep the beam (the Macross 7 does this in at least one episode of Macross 7) letting them hit more enemy ships.

    It's more maneuverable.

    I assume that either the New Unity Government never sold them barrier technology or that the colony fleet that came into contact with them didn't have variable fighters with barriers

    Another problem with that is that it, even if they weren't using the protoculture ruins) would jam Walkure as well which is an issue since the Windermeans start their attacks by triggering a var outbreak which means that NUNS would have to fight their own, out of control, forces (bad for morale) as well as the Windereans.
