MUAHAHAHAHA!!!!! :lol:

I really don't want to have to explain what was going on in this OVA/manga but: the manga and anime are royally F***ed up, you have been warned. but the mech is kind of cool looking and its in super robot wars.

you called?

well for one the VF-1's only has a 1,200RPM rate of fire, compared to the A-10's 3,900RPM rate of fire. also the 55mm round for the VF-1 is fat but also short looking. the casing looks more like a pistol round than a rifle round

and now for some stats. VF-28 Guinevere Technical Data: Equipment type: Macross Avalon Fleet main variable fighter Government: NUNG/Macross Avalon Fleet Manufacturer: Avalon Forge Industries. Introduction: 2056 Operational deployment: 2058 Accommodation: 1 pilot Dimensions: • Fighter: length 18.72 • Battroid: height 15.9 meters (includes head lasers). Mass: 8.5 metric tones Propulsion: • 6 x 760 kN Avalon Forge Industries PF-1000/A thermonuclear pulse Turbine engines Other Design Features: 3-mode variable transformation; wing-mounted engines; capable of attaining unassisted orbital velocity over an Earth-class planet; ISC (Inertia Store Converter): Shinsei Industry ISC/TO20; chaff/flare/smoke discharger system; 360 degree holographic cockpit display. -Armament- Guns: • 2 x Mauler RÖV-217C coaxial 12.7mm beam guns (head mounted) • 2 x Mauler RÖV-25 25mm beam machine guns (mounted left/right of intakes in Fighter/GERWALK mode, on rotating hip mounts in Battroid mode) • 1 x GLU-1α PPB lance beam gunpod. Bombs/Missiles: • 4 x micro missile launcher tubes (mounted tip of wing nacelles)

after significantly more build up than this thing deserves here it is. VF-28 Guinevere The VF-28 is the new main variable fighter of the 23rd large-scale super-long-distance colonization fleet, Macross Avalon. the Avalon fleet is a massive colonie of 14 million people living on three Island 1 size ships connected to a single battle class carrier. they also posses a massive research and production center where they are busy developing advanced military technology. The VF-28 falls between the VF-25 and the VF-27 in terms of performance and is notable for having 6 main engines. the Engines are New Thermonuclear Pulse Turbines that are much lighter and thinner than conventional TNT's of equal output. the VF-28 also has a 360 degree holographic cockpit (standard controls though) and is armed with a new type of gunpod. the gunpod (which is energy based) has an extra long pointed barrel that combines with the Valks PPB so that it can be used as a type of lance. (sort of like the weapon on the Metal Siren but its also a gun) by the way, I've been meaning to ask this: what do you guy's think of the use of melee weapons in macross. would it be to gundam for a valk to use a sword, and what about beam sabers?

just something I did. recently

time for a quick, colorful update: some colored line arts. I'm kind of developing a whole unwriten backstory behind the design and the squadron but I don't really want to go into it to much. the important part though is that SVF-103 is field testing the VF-400 and it's variants. the VF-400A is in standard Cannon Fodder Colors (though I wouldn't call any VF-400 pilot cannon fodder); the VF-400F is the squadron leader; and the VF-400AF and RQ are are pre-production models being field tested (hence the F-15 prototype inspired paint scheme).

now I wonder who decided that the thing also needed laser boobs?

I'd say that Maxfactory and Megahouse offer the best quality-to-price levels, though I prefer Megahouse. Yamato can be up and down, but overall I like there work (My all time favorite figure is a Yamato). Goddsmile and alter Make absolutely amazing figures but are crazy expensive, deffinatly a case of you get what you pay for. Orchid seed is interesting; they don't have the best production (though they've gotten better) but they have really interesting subject matter and some really good sculpts.

I was speaking more to your obsession with 30 foot tall women but... I think you're hearing thing cause I don't hear any similarity. All I'm getting is that Yoko Kanno has a think for emulating Disney music.

I still support the idea that the Macross 7 plus design is the VA-14 and the M3 design is the VF-14, and it's just an issue of clarification. (i.e. Sk/studio Nue haven't bothered to clear things up since its an obscure design)

I think we know what your fetish is... I wonder if SK would ever do a macross story where the main characters are lesbians? speaking of lesbians who thinks that "alto pics both" should be the official triangle resolution in the Frontier movie?

maybe for movie they're going to replace the VF-171 with the VF-19 and we're getting to see the toy for the movie.

I understand what you mean, and It's kind of hard to explain why it will usually result in something funny looking. I've tried something like this before and you can often end up with the primer being visible at the edge where the mask was. and if you put too many layers against a mask you can end up with the paint sitting to high above the plastic. the paint can end up raised a little sort of like a sticker because of how thick a sticker is.

the color doesn't tell you anything; I distinctly remember the Macross quarter not being a light pinkish-purple color, but it is in the preview. anyways the VF-19 amdd VF-27 have similar shaped shoulders so thats a moot point and the shield looks more like the one on the 27 than the 19. its not the Logo its the MASCOT! look at the Mascots face, IDENTICAL. and their was never any debate if the first one was the quarter (bandai probably made that one obvious on purpose since everyone already knows it's coming) if the blue one is the VF-19 it's a random as hell hint considering it's amongst macross FRONTIER product teasers and info; and it has a massive SMS logo over it.

OHMYGOD bricks were shat.

my eyes and ears are bleeding just thinking about that. and as for post SWI earth, I kind of have a feeling that it's not a dead wasteland of a planet full of disenfranchised and bitter people. I mean that really doesn't sound like macross to me. Maybe in the 2020's or something when it's eminently after the war and people are still rebuilding, but by the 2050's or so I doubt that would be the case.

first one (blue one) is definitely a valk. I'm 90% sure it's the VF-27 now or it's the VF-19F (I highly doubt this though)

I think it might be the VF-27, the 3 antennas look like the laser and horns on the 27's head and since it has the SMS logo over it I get the feeling it's from frontier.

I doubt it's a Michael valk since they've shown the VF100 DX and Model version multiple times already. I think the first one is going to be a VF-171 and the second either a red Vajra or the VF-27

that's what I just said. I think it's just as likely that they will release a 1/60 scale Koenig Monster update as it is that they will release an SDF-1. we'll just have to weight untill the launch even to find out. (OH SHI- 7 DAYS!)

technically that was the MKII destroid so that wasn't transformable. that would be cool if they resurrected that project and finally produced that MASSIVE 1/60 monster.

so it's a Gnerl, that you stick legs on to make a battlepod, that you stick arms on to make a Glaug? trippy.

two problems with your theory; 1)just because parts are moved around/held together by magnets doesn't meant they're sticking an arm to a random piece of metal. 99% likelihood that the body and arm have brackets that line up to make sure they mate up correctly, including any power/fuel/control lines that run from one part to the other. 2) a cell phone call and a military aircraft are two very different things. if you're cell phone louses it's signal, you miss a call; if a the control's of a plane lose signal YOU F*CKING DIE. Airplanes have tripple/quadruple redundant systems that are EM shielded for a reason, and you think it's a good idea to replace that with a wireless signal which is subject to active jamming, interference, arrant signals and a crap load of other reliability issues that you don't run into with a hard line? they aren't going to use wireless for the simple reason that nobody is going to want to fly in an Valk where the enemy can turn off your gunpod or lock up your arms and legs using a Jamming pod.
