  1. This is not entirely Macross, but rather Genesis Climber MOSPEADA. Apparently in the 1980s, the creators of the GoBots toy line created a series of Imai/Monogram models, two of which were based upon the AHC-01 Legioss/Alpha, as the jet fighter character LEADER-1, and the VR-041 Blowsperior/Saber, as the motorctcle character CY-KILL.

  2. We are all probably familiar with the infamous Jetfire/Skyfire of Transformers fame. Because of a conflict in who could portray the image of the VF-1 in North America (between Robotech and Transformers, both who had apparently leased the reproduction of the design from Studio Nue), the Transformer Jetfire had a decidely different appearance on the cartoon than as a toy.

  3. The mecha of Macross has been seen in numerous other forms (series, toys, RPGs, etc) other than Macross. Some were legitimate liscencees (such as Jetfire in Transformers) and others, not so legit (like knockoffs and such).

    The purpose of this thread is for people to report and detail any of these Mecha (or even characters) seen in other series and media. Feel free to include any mecha that catches your eye.

  4. I have been working on a translation of the text below to English, so I can figure out exactly what the various functions of the parts of the Instrument Panel are for the VF-1 Valkyrie. The scans are originally from This is Animation: Macross Plus. I was hoping to ask for the services of anyone who is experienced in understanding the Japanese language. After the translations are completed, I am going to respost it in English.

  6. I was designing an image of the Auroran/AGAC/AJAC from Super Dimension Calvary Southern Cross/Robotech Masters. I was looking for a side view image of the mecha's fighter or helicopter mode, either a drawing or screenshot of the mecha that I may be able to use to create a line image.

    Below is a silhouette of the AGAC in helicopter mode from the side, to give an idea of the side profile I am looking for. Thanks to anyone who can be of assistance.

  7. I am working on designing a profile of the Spartas Hovertank, as seen in Super Dimension Century Southern Cross. Would anyone have any high resolution line images of the Spartas in its different modes (battloid, tank, hovercraft). I was hoping to come across profile images (front, side, rear, etc.) or links to such images. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Specifically I was looking for line images that came on the instructions from the Robotech Veritech Hover Tank toy produced by Matchbox in the 1980s. Below is a low-resolution example of what I was searching for.
