Barukiri wa Getta Robo janai!

Its called a Mospeada, damnit. M-O-S-P-E-A-D-A. Cyclones are for Kamen Riders.

There, I've said my piece. Let the flaming begin.

You're a dick. A big Robotechie dick.

Totsugeki love heaaaaaaaaaaaaaaart! Macross 7 is grabbing me right now. Like in the wrong place. Ha, this show rules. Space biker chicks! =D

That reinforces the idea that regular people aren't good enough for Macross plots anymore.

Says you. Gamlin was good enough, Max was good enough, Shin was god enough, Roy was good enough... etc etc.

Check out the brand new super anti protodevlin valk, custom made just for the Macross 7 fleet to their specifications... and equiped with a speaker on it's butt..

That's from J-Decker you dummy.

Oh yes, Macross has nothing without every singl detail lining up. Macross must be perfect... Yessss... my precious...

There actually were Mass-Produced Great Mazingers in the Manga.

So its like Gundam and Macross and neither at the same time... and it's Korean? And... I'm confused.

Let me break it down.

Korean animated action movies like to use characters from popular animes without the consent of their creators. As far as I know, there are many Space Gandam movies each featuring a missmatch of different robots from different shows. This particular Space Gandam had a VF-1J as the main hero robot used to fight giant spider monsters. Another Space Gandam movie (IV or VI... I'm not quite sure) featured the Transformers design of Inferno as the main hero robot. These movies are generally just giant monster movie fare with familiar robots. They generally don't even try to incorporate any parts of the universe the robot was stolen from.

I see that Keith has finally recieved his copy of Space Gandam V. Its a low-budget Korean animated movie that incorporates the VF-1J as the main hero's robot of choice.

Only Mikimoto can do justice to anything related to Macross =D

Odd.  I think that about almost all of Mikamoto's designs for SDF: Macross.  Minus the needle, naturally.

Dude, come on. You're better than that. =D

Oh and Mikomoto only designed Eve for all three Megazones =p. The first main designer was Toshihiro Hirano, the second was Yasuomi Umetstu, and the third was Hroyuki Kirazume.

Machine Robo + Brave shows >>>>>>>>>>>> Transformers =p

Don't mess with Rom or Gai.

LOL,

Good to see ya around! You have been MIA for like 2 years.

I'm not MIA. That's Chuck Norris's gig =D 'Sides, I need to poke my favorite Robotechie.

And I do. I hold Robotech to the same standards I hold Macross to. I am just as critical of (believed) errors in both shows, since I feel that they're capable of being so much more than what they are. Is that so wrong?

YES! It is wrong. You can speculate and rationalize anything you want, buddy boy, but you're wish for everything to make sense isn't going to magically re-animate a show or create vast official technical discussions out of thin-air. You can't change what has been done (no matter what you may think about prequels). If you really want things to make sense then create your own universe. You seem intelligent enough to do that.

No dissin' the New Macross class ship. Its got Miyataki coolness.

this is a travesty... completely contrary to the mecha design of macross

That is the point. That entire BBS is devoted to making unique variants of popular mechanical designs, often drawing one machine in the style of another artist. In this case, Mamaru Nagano's style has been used to recreate seveal Macross designs and the mere fact that a fan could dream up and draw something like that is amazing. Nagano himself would be proud =D

You didn't answer my question

Ok so here's my question.

In Gaogaigar, what is the number on biggest Eraser Head?

Gunbuster! With the RX-7.

What are you guys getting so excited about? That's not even a prototype, its a wooden mockup.

I like it.

What am I saying, it's got green hair, of COURSE I like it.

Vostok 7

You need serious help, buddy boy. =)

The robot's name is Stealther and, if I may add, it is really really cool in the comics. The only real toy of it is this little PVC trading figure.

They don't want to spend the $500 for the official DVD set. Those HK rips are ok since they came from the Laser Discs. There's not any noticeable pixelation and the sound is clear.
