Witchblade

I always thought the same thing. It seemed perfectly logical that she would have picked out Roy while looking for the greatest enemy pilot, then only after he was defeated so easily realized that it wasn't him. Now I'm going to have to rewatch that episode to see what did happen when he got hit. But I never had any ill feelings towards her - it ain't like Roy went out like a sucka. (and certainly not in DYRL?)

Are we looking at the same drawing? The Gerwalk view clearly shows that there is at least some bevelling taking the front of the toes to a point. The front view of the battroid mode is deceptive, but the gerwalk mode definitely shows that some kind of point is beyond both side corners of the foot, producing a definite vertice. 314154[/snapback] Funny, I thought the peaks were obvious on the Battroid and Fighter, but that the Gerwalk looked flat. I guess it's just an optical illusion from forced perpesctive on a strictly 2-dimensional image. But the head lasers are definitely wrong, which is curious. Only explanation I can come up with is that they have an entire warehouse full of unused VF-1J head parts they desparately need to get rid of.

It's not really relevant, but the same kana are used for the thing you use to dry a car after you wash it (chamois).

I just noticed the FPs lying next to that thing. Rock on!

Thanks for the info. I can imagine there was a bit of an outcry when word leaked out that it wouldn't be fully transformable. Probably more than enough to kill the project. (And it's very interesting that that wasn't stated on the page- unless I misread something.) Curious that they still have it so prominently advertised (it's featured on the main page), but then again it seems that they've been neglecting their Macross licenses in favor of other things.

Any behind the scenes news on one of these? I know they say release date & cost are undecided, but I've seen lots of details about 1/48 cannon fodders and armor sets here. Hopefully someone has heard something.
