  1. Hey, that I like! Don't much care for the Chariot class. What's the purpose of the deep keel?

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Be funny if they're all put on PO at once. By funny I mean tragic.
  3. Got an email from Nippon-Yasan this morning saying the release date for this has changed from August 31st to August 25th. Yay!

    Macross figures

    Yes indeed. What happened to her?
  5. This looks promising. Some anime magic is to be expected, since the show is so old, so some proportional difficulties are inevitable. Gotta make a reasonable fighter mode, doncha know.
  6. Yeah, it became the Soyuz class permanently. Am I the only one who really liked the old FASA designs in their Star Trek games?
  7. As regards the effects compared to TNG: that was also almost 30 years ago. There OUGHT to be a huge difference.
  8. Yes, this will either be excellent or just terrible. No middle ground.
  9. 40, so I'm a memory.
  10. So the Feds are using, presumably, maximum-strength VF-24s, Macross Olympia is using a watered-down VF-25 (and possibly Frontier too), and Macross Galaxy knew they were missing out on the 24's potential and built the 27 in secret. The godawfully complex and expensive YF-29 rivals the Federal VF-24 in performance, and the independently designed and built YF-30 Chronos may equal or slightly exceed it. Was it ever explained how the 30's design was released so that the VF-31 could be based off it? Also: guns. The 30, 29, and 27 all have internal ordnance and missiles, especially the 29, which brings a fracking arsenal with itself. The 25 carries its head turret, a gunpod, and two small-bore guns as standard, everything else depends on hardpoints and special parts. Do we have reason to believe the 24 would be similar?

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Two pieces? Perhaps it folds in half like the VF-19's.
  12. Thanks guys, found it. It's not a Phase II design, it's from last a stillborn show called Planet of the Titans. Still Roddenberry and McQuarrie's work though.
  13. I dig Hera a lot. She and Lando are must-haves.
  14. I rather like the new ship, it's what would result if you threw models of the original Enterprise refit and the Enterprise-D into a closet and closed the door for a while.
  15. Some pretty crap sound effects there. Anyone else get a vaguely Klingon vibe from the ship design and music? Triple Bussard collectors. Flying V secondary hull. Impulse engines for days. Tan paint? Massive nacelles in proportion to those triple collectors. Not sure about this. The crew and plot better be amazing.
  16. First I've heard that the full-spec VF-24 might be equal to a Durandal. How about a full-spec VF-25, since the NUNS were testing it using the SMS as a proxy? It's featured in the Master File in NUNS markings quite prominently.
  17. That's what happens when you give most of the people what they want.
  18. Speaking of, what the heck was the Dark Aster supposed to be made of? Stone? Who builds a ship out of that?
  19. Wil Wheaton actually mentioned that episode in his Twitter feed the other day. Said he warned us all about those games in the '90s.
