yeah that paint scheme the "wolf squadron" scheme in his colors question though, how did u get a screenshot of him and izzy both in the same colors?! Izzy flew that mission in her green valk i coulda sworn... jetfire was the bootleg i've got 3 of them..

i find it ironic your complaing more about it being O/T than you are being On T yourself on the soap bubble thing, is there any actual explanation to it ever mentioned? i never noticed one, but was curious myself as to why it was so easy for them to move in and out of it like it was nothing, yet you see sound force launch from a airlock of the sort always.

How are you going to do the animation error head? I'll try to rephrase my question in Robotech speak; how have you (or will you) get the two additional lasers on the Battloid's head? 417607[/snapback] say wha? roblowtech can take its whack YF-1R and head laser crap an' shove'em where the sun don't shine i was just using that as an example since Toynami painted it wrong (game version had red markings/"eye" where the toy went white), i won't even buy anything (figure wise, since the gameing market is slim for Macross) marked roblowtech mind you, Yamato all the way! (i'm still on a boycott agianst Harmony gold... sry, but i just can't stand money grubbers that won't even work a better deal than redesigns of the 80's versions, i'm also agians Fu*&imation (DBZ/ FMA) for stuff they cast upon the fans when Budokai was getting released, so i'll import my stuff for these from Japanese companies and pay that extra to them willingly) i intend to do the 1A you start out with in beginning of the game. so it was an animation error? i was wondering where the hell they got that screenshot they show on their website and honestly, looking at that pic there i didn't even realize how close it even came to the 1A's head... lol, a 1A mixed with a 1J.. interesting...

LOL, oh yeah! thats what the thread was.. i think it was better off derailed..

i finally unlocked the GBP1S 1J you hafta do all the bonus missions, or at least a number of them after you beat the game Milia was just a beat her till the scene where the Macross gets saved by Bodolza's fleet playing Minmeis song saves them from the Meltrandi attack (ya know, like in the movie! Max kicks Milia's tail and they get married and live.... okay maybe not but yeah) if i recall thats what got her anyways i need to dig for info and see if i've unlocked everything.... GBP1S is like using Milia, but a bit slower and with more missile power you can eject the armor (and it auto ejects at a certain armor/health level) but this leaves you with not more than a Valkyrie with no missiles, so its just a gunpod and head cannons but at least you can maneouver fully now if other companies ran the GBP1S like this, it'd be awsome, cause it'd be usable!! ANYWHERE! though A.C.E 2 does force it so strike gear is in space only. but the GPB1S is actually a little weaker than you'd think, but they just made the missiles slightly less accurate and threw in a few other tweaks. your gunpod is still yer best weapon

A.C.E not ACE Combat Another Century's Episode heh, A.C.E 2 took out a few and added a TON of differant units its like super robot wars (as in it mixes dif anime) but plays more like a reg anime/mecha sim with simple controls (lest ya use the 1st set, anyways, in that one u have to select every function from a menu, the second set is as i described above) oh and its not Super Deformed like SRW. Macross DYRL was added in this one, i was in Japan a month before its release and saw a Valk on the demo screen at a hobby shop in Iwakuni, but before that (and what really got my attention) was Fokkers "YOOHOO" style battlecry as he flew into combat i was so joyous when i realized my stay would keep me there 3 weeks after its release, so if i had missed it on that fateful March 30th thursday, i'd still have a chance to get it, also got Gundam Climax U.C. in the same outting upon its release.. heh and my friend no sooner got his copy than unlocked everything in it, it has SEVENTY TWO flipping gundams to play as!! needless to say i stole his mem card and copied that save! and the intro movie to the game is a work of art in its own! ANYWHO i'm babbling agian. Edit: WOOT! just got the e-mail from the seller, i should be getting my DYRL in the mail within a couple weeks WOOT! also he posted another copy for anyone else looking for it, as well as a TON of other games to import, seems all are used or so, but meh. better than nothing! looks here for it, he also has a unused copy fer sale, but its an extra 30 bux! i'll stick to my used ones thankyouverymuch A.C.E 2 here if ya wants it heh, wow importing newer releases costs alot don't it... i only payed roughly 4,000 yen when i baught mine on release day! and wow.. he sells A.C.E 1 for bout the same, i baught that in the bargain bin for 1500 yen.. its a good one, but i wouldn't blow 66 bux on it, cause you MUST pay to fly a mission(or something like it), but if you run out of funds before you go back to the carrier (every fourth mission or so) the game comes to a screeching halt, and i've yet to find a way to continue :/ though i will say this, Talgeese is MURDEROUS in this one Talgeese 3 in A.C.E 2 can't compare, and feels weak after trying this one!

supposedly all the "next gen" systems aren't encoded game wise (360 included) i dunno for sure as i haven't tried my 360 yet, but i do know the PSP plays games from anywhere (as i actually have a JP game or two working on my american PSP, no mods required), and only the movies are encoded by region. personly i skipped all problems with this by buying a used Japanese PS2 while i was stationed there figured why not...

i think the original intent of this thread is all but dieing down. originaly the chatter of games was M7 related. best thing to do is either quityerbit**in (not to be rude, its just for lack of better term) or put the thread back on topic, far be it from me, as i'm not sure where the topic was going to begin with really, outside of odd debates... if it helps though, i just got my first VF-19 figure in the mail today (of 3 i ordered 1 true Bandai and 2 bootlegs to tinker with) its M7 related... sorta.. wrong forum though i think ANYWHO as they say "shikata ga nai"

lol i'm not crazy! the tail part broke of at the tab/joint piece and is held together with a small piece of tin and a ton of superglue (not to mention some flesh) i managed to do it just right that it Tforms clean and stays rather tight, though its got a gap in fighter mode now, but hardly noticable really i've a mint in box one sitting aside i saved from the display case at store somewhere in Hiroshima while i was in japan now so this ones on the mark to be redone hence the "scrapped" comment in my original post strip the decals and paint and i'm gonna redo this sucker some, course first i need money... heh, leaving the Navy and got my last paycheck so im waiting on my DD 214 (discharge papers) so i can get a good job, otherwise no one will believe me and my benefits are useless

i have NO idea i was just playing the game too... LOL bah who cares what his name is! J/K i've yet to see much in the way of his design popup anywhere (even Toynami's YF-1R figure was painted wrong compared to the game) so i figured it'd be a good one to make and little more original than doing what everyone else is on the WMCheng thing most of the links are broke :/ mentions it right there, and honestly i can't find much for weathering in'em :/ least not that helps a newb out. though grand tips for construction of those kits though, i'm half tempted to dig one up!

wow, not to complicated not to easy not bad... though i still like the A.C.E 2 control scheme as it opens so many other possabilities for its uses ahh well i finally got my GBP1S 1J for it to (model clipping city on this one!), interesting way they put it in the game.. its slower and more powerful, but its like flying the Queadruun Rau around only its a Valk, and you can eject the armor at any time, but then your only weapons are speed, your head cannons, and the gunpod :/ never noticed it before (as the 1J is the only that does this) even in A.C.E 2 they shrank the wings in Battroid!! everything else remains the same, so it doesn't get that horrid looking midget hips thing going i've seen in this DYRL one, but meh. can't knock a good game for minor flaws... well ya can, but that doesn't ruin it, so its still a good game right?

WHOA! after seeing the screens with those reviews i gotta say WOW did that screw the Battroid looks badly! i mean.. it looks almost as gimped as a few of the small super posable models i've seen about. still ordering it though hmm though the seller i ordered from hasn't responded to my first e-mail i hope they do to the purchase the only reason i can see for that design choice though is to prevent clipping of the model, but the thing to realize in making ANY Anime style based mecha game is clipping is gonna happen! so just get over it and let it happen, if it wasn't going to happen... well, thats not likely. question though, so when (and if at this point..) i get it, what are the controls? and can the bloody Gerwalk kick it in reverse? if theres ANYTHING i hate royaly about Battlecry its that above all (in second comes the shoddy controls for strafeing/aiming, and the lack of control customization between differant consoles) judging by a couple of the vids i'm watching i'd say you actually have to go through gerwalk just to get to Battroid from fighter and vise versa? hmm if they ever make another one they need to adapt the controls from A.C.E 2's secondary control scheme (primary scheme you have to manualy select functions :/ ) otherwise its as simple as circle and squad for main stuff, X boosters, Hold L1 and press most anything else for some other effect L1+R1 = Tform Up from Battroid to gerwalk/fighter L1+R2 = Tform down from Fighter to Gerwalk/battroid quick and easy like

i've a spare scrapped 1/60 Max 1A i've mentioned and i'm gonna repaint him to Jack Carvers 1A from Roblowtech Battlecry (sry i really can't say or type that with a straight face) should i go flat/gloss coloring like the games Cell shading or extra detail with my Gundam Marker and an airbrush (once i get one) i've never had much luck with gloss as it seems never to dry right for me, and collects dust and dirt really easily :/ so any recommendations (paints/removers/tools/etc..) for a customization newb? should i extra detail my 1/48 1S Fokker fer fun? Detail lines mostly, unless someones got a tutorial on weathering i could learn from thanks ahead, i would've posted in the Newb Questions post but it seems all but ignored now

i haven't played this one so i dunno, but most japanese games i own you can catch the gist of the story and all from either the in game cutscenes (wether or not u know whats being said, i learned i actually understand more than i thaught i did), the anime its based from, and/or an online translation of the game gamefaqs.com usualy has some decent ones

i like that explanation but following the way they describe Spiritia in the series, it almost makes partial sense in a more scientific manner, since most won't agree to the existance of a "life force" and have belief all can be answered with math. on the Spinoffs Macross jumpstarted alot of the Genre itself, granted less direct connections, but its probably due to the theme that mac 7 followed where most other anime had been hitting at the time, not to mention it had more fan base built from the original by the time and the marketers probably figured it'd catch on better or something. i honestly wouldn't mind seeing a Yamato made figure of some of the valks (VF-17, VF-22 (to go with the 21 they already got, its only a slight mod away!) and such, though Mylenes VF-11 would be a wierd one to look at.... i mean, would it even be possible to make that thing work?!) Do you not read posts? seriously... Without Macross-7 the Digital mission vfx series could not have occurred. So much of its story line, units and universe was derived from Macross-7. Then there is SRW, and the prominent place that Sound Bomber plays in that game. And if you want to talk about popularity, macross 7 had more spin offs than any other series.... it had a 4 piece OVA, a movie, and a manga follow it... thats better than SDF macross. 417047[/snapback] umm yeah he read the posts he stated right there... well.. read the quote... Mac 7, games it spawned, and capability to make them.

PS2 and now PSP, not sure whats in the PSP one myself though... only thing i dislike is the SD format of it :/ i'm not much for that outside of the apporpriate gag in a show or game, having the whole thing that way just creeps me out...

he had a promise to keep and no hospital was gonna keep him from it!

Also because you seem to keep forgetting that Macross 7 was never intended to be action series, because Macross Plus was being produced at the same time. Story based anime probably don't make the best material for action video games. Macross 7 did have follow-up Manga and movies too, which in some ways can be compared to SDF macross and DYRL. 416550[/snapback] heh Mac plus had a shoddy PS1 game to.. i found it while in japan (twad looking for DYRL but never found it while i was there ) aint played much, but i call it shoddy only cause it was pre-analog controls PS1 if they took Mac7 from Gamlin or someone elses perspective, itd make a decent game at best, as the sound force thing would make a crappy thing unless they went DDR on us! but once ya get to the Protodeviln parts... itd be beyond gimped as Macross Mecha vs giant monsters = guhay

aint seen it mentioned, so. the Jetfire initial release had the Mac logo yes, then Bandai got sued big by harmony gold for copyright infrigement, being the money grubbers they are. Bandai then removed the logo, and continued sales, agian harmony gold got angered. SO, in retaliation, Jetfire got scrapped, the in show/comic character got changed to Skyfire in order to avoid any further confrontation. and the rest is history. in case anyone wondered why jetfire no longer legaly exists even in transformers hmm then agian, i think they did do an actual jetfire named figure for that last crap line of armada... (stupid quotation point buttons on my keyboard aint workin... grrr)

I think this is it. 416152[/snapback] hmm differant package than the one i had seen, but meh, prob just cause dif seller and such.

point taken.

Newbie question!!!! http://macross.anime.net/story/chronology/2040/index.html 415933[/snapback] WOOT! you bet! <--- cannon fodder see! so where my crap smothered looking 1A? though this seems wrong "Basara folds to a planet inhabited by U.N. colonists and encounters an unknown mecha." seeing as Pedro called it before Basara did, so it obviously wasn't exactly unknown.

i have a dumb question, i finaly finished the whole series, my original opinions stand. love or hate its still there. where does the movie fit in?! let alone the OVA, this has to be the first OVA that looked like it had a place in the series i've ever seen honestly... but ignoring that, the movie, where does that seriously come in? i feel like i watched through and missed where i was supposed to fit it in i actually liked the OVA though.. least i thaught Elma was kewl, her sis was a prewd, but she was pretty kewl, compared to Mylene. i mean, no intro, she just shows up out of nowhere holding a glow lamp with a dumbfounded look on her face....

..................... ROFLMAO sry, that was just out of nowhere...

*laughing* Seriously, that was funny. Meph, you deserve a high five. But if cat girls deserve to die, then so does everyone in firebomber. 415665[/snapback] Firebomber didn't have a single product of inter-genus crossbreeding in it. 415739[/snapback] Mylene doesn't count? hmm then agian, considering the said origins of the meltran/zentran and humans.. guess that doesn't
