I agree they aren't hot. They look like they done up a porn stars. They could be average to slight better looking but they look like they had that Glamour shots treatment. Stripper hair and make up has to be treated like stage make up of an actor in movie or plan. On camera or on the stage you might need it but in other situation you look like clown or a whore. Not saying these women are whores but that what they look like here. It is the wrong hair and make up. A good make up and hair can make even an average dame look like a sexual goodness (your average super model for example). These chicks look like strippers. They should be crying.

I don't know to me it just look and felt more like a toy then others did.

Saw it today. Not bad maybe a little too much for such short time. There wasn't much of a focus with the character plot lines. The whole movie was just to a build up for a fight. It reminded me of Transformers the Movie in which the majority of the character from the series were killed off and new ones introduced. Yet I was entertaining. I have some issues: 1. What was with that mutant with that oily duck hairdo? Was that I chick or dude? 2. Enough with the mutants = homosexuals references. 3. Wolverine can't use buttons? Instead he uses snaps? 4. Did Wolverine wax his body before taking Jean out? 5. Mystque in a human form looks like Rebacca with Charlie hair with Aeon Flux. 6. Good mutants are clean out white kids and evil mutants are ethic kids with tatoos and piercings? 7. If your a mutant you pick you're own Mutant name. So what happens when two mutants meet with the same name? Everyone is gonna pick a cool name right? Do they fight over the rights to it? 8. How much hair color did they use on Ontatop? It stained her scalp red.

Cleaning and Organizing is what they all said. If your father came home and found half his beer can collection missing would he have accepted your story of spring cleaning? The spring cleaning bugs effects them all but its always the property of others that needs to be gone.

I made the mistake of first trying the game on hard. My piloting was good enough I just didn't have enough cash to buy a decent plane for the last few levels.

Interesting you do see the use of arm fast packs used as a shield. Reading the book my first thought about fast packs would be a Pod stuffed with missiles or boosters. I knew fast packs would the last thing I would attempt to tackle. A lower SP and low DA would seem right. Sure you can consider them shield to a degree but they are still carrying fuel, boosters and missiles. They aren't a solid hunk of metal for defence.

Since when has Protoculture toilets been pointless?

Okay been working again with it. Biggest math pain in ass is multiple systems. Every time I decide to change something I'm redoing the math again. Might be easy of I was designing from stratch instead of trying to follow the system to reach an establish goal. My stats so far aren't much different from others I found with the expection of few difference of opinions most end up being pretty close. Reading more of these books have allowed me to understand the stats that other have made so far. A lot of current conversions are written by the gaming system mecha creationphiles. The every day rper without the proper reference material will not be able to make heads or tails of things. This might explain why sites like Macross Mecha Designs did so well. Even with Palladium inferior system the format estabished by the website wasn't confusing to the untrained eyes. You have to be informed to make sense of some online Mekton material. I am strongly convinced through my reading and research that Mekton is the better anime Mecha system. The MTS seems a bit too much a process of solving a math puzzle. The ability to customize systems, weapons and additonal rules make Mekton Zeta Plus worthwhile. Not sure how many customs I'll do. I know what I want and what my standards are. Some already nearly meet those standards. Best thing I could contribute is some easier to view formatting and to get a online game going.

Ha Ha ha. I know I'm having fun with these topics. The experience we all have is pretty common. The first most important woman in our collective lives had little respect for our property. They used it to make us obey and out of sheer cruelty they threw out or gave away our property that they saw as useless. It's one thing to take a property away for a misdeed but its another just to get rid of them for nothing. Haven't adult members here experienced their current women of their lives acting jealous of their collections and make threat against it? Women are danger to your collections my brothers! She is jealous harlet who will deny herself to you and you from your property just for her own sick pleasure. Join me for a weekend retreat. Where we will rediscover our man-hood as we dance shirtless around a campfire with our Valkyries howling at the moon!!!

More retro toy stories. This time the subject is toys and stuff that you had but your parent(s) types or others allowed mistreatment. You weren't careless or rough with this toys. You treasured them yet the people who had control of you. Screwed your toys over. Each a horrible act against your privacy and respect for your stuff. Mine: For doing a yearly spring cleaning that involve my toys. If a toy had any broken or missing part it was thrown in the trash. It didn't matter the degree of the break. Last year it happen I lost my millieum Falcon and the next day this kid was playing around with it. Never was I so pissed. If the toy was broken piece of junk why does this other kid have it now? For making me share the General Lee and its Bo and Luke Duke figures. In 81 this one of my favorite new toys. Yet I was forced to share Luke with a younger kid that being baby sat. The bastard broke Luke and I still forced to keep sharing and watch the bastard break them all. For forcing me to allow a kid of a family friend to borrow my rudder crockadile toy. It's been 21 years and I yet to get it back. The moral of my story. Don't share!!!!! If you have kids don't force them to share!!!! If you decide to force them to share then make sure that things are returned in the same condition. If a someone breaks it demand that the kid parents pay damages or pay them yourself to your own little brat.

What I never got was when they controlled what I could get. Not talking about price or toy safety. Just when they decided that you'll get this toy because they think the other one you want was just some trend. You point out the toy that you liked and were even smart enough to point out that it cost the same ammount as the last toy but in the end they bought you something else I hated that!

I'm still curious of how accurate this information is. Fan speculation or is it from Macross audio or text that has never been translated.

Okay time to share. I'm sure when you were young there were some toys that really caught your fancy but no matter how much you begged they never bought them for you. Did you eventually find these toys as an adult or still searching? Some of mine: A Bandai 1/55 VF-1 The price was affordable back then but for some reason they made me get Matchbox crap. One Xmas I got enough Matchbox Robotech toys to equal the price a VF-1. Never did get a one. Got a Jetfire as an adult and a Yamato. Any Gijoe figure from 1983 or 1984 They decided I would collect Star Wars when I wanted Joes. I eventually nearly got all of the figures from this two years. The Terror Dome Too expensive they say and well now it really is too expensive. Tomax & Xamot Figures Their excuse? Too expensive considering it is the same figure. I ended my buying myself loose. That Spiderman Ski-mask in the sears catalog Was it that expensive? You want me face to freeze?

I had one for a week and sold it. The VF-17 looks decent enough in Macross 7 but that toy just doesn't cut it.

I still need to see this movie but I'm starting to think... A bunch of colorful back ground mutants = a bunch of colorful back ground Jedi.

Had another look and a quick read of the entire book before I tried a little bit of creation. I think the game system is well suited for Mecha. I think the design system is some suited for techno-freaks and math majors. I know the weight and ablilities of Macross Mecha. Selecting the most approriate servo, weapon damage, BV, etc. is simple enough but getting to the part where I'm gonna have to make sure there is enough space and the fact I'm pretty sure weight will greatly exceeded the establish Macross weights. This will result in alot of boring this doing space and weight efficency. I had a A in the Last math class I took in college. Math a daily part of my job. I just don't like it that much. I'm sure playing with the design system creating ones design well keeping true the systems rules is part of the fun but for me not about the designing. I think my conversions will be what fits best towards the animation according to my education opinion. My stats will just be stats and not a work sheet how things were made. Yeah I'll use my calculator on parts I'll be fudging some of the steps. If anyone in the future tries to reverse engineer my stats they will either go crazy trying to figure out the math or will be able to make sense of the math that I hardly did.

Okay I ordered Mekzon Z on a Thursday cheapest shipping. The next day the seller tell he'll ship later that day. Next week Saturday I get the book packaged in box. An 8 day wait. That same day I order Plus from another on Amazon. I pick the faster shipping method. I get the book today. A 7 day weight not only that the seller uses a bubble wrap envelope. So of course my retard mail man shoves it my little hole (gee that sound sexual). Two feet away are large box for the mail man to use for over sized items. I don't get it I select better shipping and it takes just a long and I get cheaper packing material. WTF is up with that. Well It nice it's a big book. I was expecting it soon. Working this weekend starting in a hour so I really wont have a chance to read it until the weekend is over. The 20 second flip through looks good so far.

I can fix that.

Please don't tell me I'm reading a slightly defensive tone. I trust I am mistaken. The G in GPS-1 stands for Ground. Does Misa get on Hikaru ass for using the unit in space? If you decided to impose the full -5 MV, space would the place to possibly do it. The Ramington H-22T the Compedium list them as being "hand grenades" as opposed to grenade mini missiles. I wonder if they should be treated like a thrown weapons. Not sure if I can tell by your stats but I'm thinking Powerplants in the Macross universe would be 'Hot'. Also I'm leaning to have the G-Factor be standard for at least brown colored VF-1A and Regults.

Yeah please share. These short stories might not have been animated but they are part of the Macross universe someone here must have read them.

http://www.mektonzeta.com/history.php See the first entry.

lol! Even though I gave Mods back the powers when the last time you've seen the us use one those words (besides me in this topic)?

Okay a YF-19 seem more manuverable I'll give you that but what when you includes Destroids? A VF-1 battroid should manuver better than those. Do you keep bumping each slow mecha down/up a MV? Wouldn't have easier to round down? When you typical round off you either round up or down to the closer number. BV-6/1000 Rounds is only 200 rounds away. BV-7 is 1800 more rounds.

Well I'm gonna save the super intense review for after I get Plus and had chance to read a few times but some initinal comments. The Maneuver values are lower than I thought they would be. You have -3 MV for battroid/Basic Humoid Mekton. Is not the MV connected to weight? A -3 is equal to a Mekton 3 times the size. What is causing the VF-1 to "weigh" more? The ROV-20 Actual rate of fire is 6,000 pulses a minute. The Gu-11 rate is 1,200 rounds a minute. For the time takes the Gu-11 to fire one round the ROV-20 has let loose 5 pulse. Of course your limited by the Burst Values of the game but should the BV you have listed be further part than just by 1 BV? Also I know Mekton is inspired a lot by Gundam and in Gundam Beam Weapons are more primarly used over Projectile guns. Thus Beam weapon tend to be powerfull in Mekton. In Macross the Gu-11 is one most used weapons a VF-1. Your stats for the ROV-20 has it having twice the range and twice the damage than the GU-11. The question is if the ROV-20 does more damage and has much better than why do the pilot rely more on the GU-11? One 10 Kill AMM-1 hits the torso/fuselage. Of those 10K it looses 3 against the armor (which than at 2 stopping power). The remaining 7K reduces the Fuselage to 1 kill. Do you think that damage might be too high? Prehaps a 8 Kill missile would be better to at least allow the VF-1 to survive two missile hits. RMS-1 only 12K? Should it do a hell of a lot more damage? The Mekton II tech books has missile damage that goes up to 20K. Since the RMS-1 is a anti-ship weapon should something like say 150K (the damage list for a ship missile MZ page 77)?

Really we never modded someone for an occasional bad word. Just if it was excessive or vulgar (which doesn't always require a swear word to accomplish). I did for fun remove the filter for Mods (Vice and up I think) months ago. To prove it: No crap I can swear but you bitches can't!
