There's a set of three custom Yammy dogs on eBay right now. They look like pretty high quality customs with a commensurate price.

Mo-Suu-Pii-Dah Goh-Suu in 1/48
jenius replied to captain america's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
While I'm not a modeler I'm stoked you're doing this and looking forward to seeing some completed builds. -
This looks very 47 Ronin to me.

Those Japanese broadcasters know how to do it!

Not colored correctly? I haven't seen them in person but the color looks pretty good in that pic above.

But bad lighting would. You know they have to release the wrong color first so they can give us the right color a year from now. That's mac0 tradition.

This is why I always tell people that their toys need to be kept in a vacuum. It's the only way to be safe! It also reduces yellowing from oxidation.

Robotech Academy - You want a new Robotech series...?
jenius replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I can't make heads or tails out of what that 'mecha' is. It has a giant proboscis, I'll give it that. If I had infinite time I'd make a drawing of the battloid mode and I know just where that proboscis would end up. It's not often mech designers look at the AGAC from Southern Cross and think "It's just not busy enough." Edit - I'm not trying to say this is an AGAC knock-off, I'm just trying to say that's a busy design.- 2025 replies

Kicking a dead thread but I just watched this and thought it was awful. I wasn't familiar with the source material and I hoped that would help but man... not good. Then I read the original story (which I think would have pretty limited appeal to Western audiences) and it made me like the movie even less. Oh well, better luck next movie.

Robotech Academy - You want a new Robotech series...?
jenius replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Think of all the money that won't go to this because of the way HG has acted toward RT fans. I might have thrown them a few bones if they hadn't been dicks... And more if they had been honest and shown some talent.- 2025 replies

I think the PB Backers are over-reacting but I also think PB has made a series of terrible decisions that has exposed them for the amateurs they clearly are. I suddenly have an interest in this project because I passed only to find my brother invested so he could give it to me. He told me at his birthday party "i've been meaning to give this to you as a gift but I think it's going to be delayed forever."

Robotech Academy - You want a new Robotech series...?
jenius replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I would think WB would want to do this as a legitimate commercial venture. They have the means and the distribution channels. If it all worked out well then they also have the movie rights. It seems like kind of a slam dunk so the fact it's not going down that way seems scary. I know HG would claim it's because they want full control over all aspects of the production but that's kind of ridiculous given their staff.- 2025 replies

jenius replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Oh yeah, definitely agree on the background music. I'm not saying I prefer one to the other, as sometimes Macross builds a different kind of tension by not having the background music, but I do like the RT background stuff. I still use some of those background themes as ring tones.- 2025 replies

Robotech Academy - You want a new Robotech series...?
jenius replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Man... I always thought the voice actors were decent. The singing is a train wreck but I never had a problem with the actors. I mean, watching it on DVDs makes the fact they only had like three different people doing voices stand out pretty clearly but that's not the VAs fault. I mean, comparing Robotech to MacII, Robotech is a good dub compared to the stilted MacII mess. I don't have any problem at all with what Robotech was. I would have loved for Sentinels to have been made. I mean, I still think that scene where Regent says "I believe you" and then hands the dude the bomb is pretty cool. There are too many problems with the property at this point and the fan base is too old from the lack of new content for 29 years for this thing to go on. If HG was rich they should try rebooting the franchise with all new mecha, many new names, and get clear of all the rights problems and have a more coherent take on what Protoculture is and really link things together. That's not going to happen though and there's just no talent at HG strong enough to create a new path.- 2025 replies
