It's unclear. The only reason we currently don't get SDF Macross merch repackaged as Robotech (or still as Macross but licensed by HG) is because BigWest doesn't allow its licensees to make any payment to HG. If things are status quo for 1987 and prior, BW may still stop its licensees from teaming up with HG.
Mmm... after reading your post, for me, this is what might happen in the future: Big West will just allow HG’s live action movie to be shown in Japan and get it over with while they release all Macross products (videos, movies, music, toys and games) post 1987 to the whole world.
Big West DOES NOT have to release Macross TV and Macross Movie DYRL? to the world via HG licensing if they don’t want to. I mean, they still get all the profit out of all their SDFM and DYRL? products anyway because of proxies and such.
Meanwhile, Plus, 7, Zero, Frontier and Delta will act like advertisements promoting the Real SDFM and DYRL? making the rest of the world thirsty for the real deal. Raising demand for Macross TV and Macross Movie products should prompt Bandai, Arcadia etc. to pump up their production.
I can see it now. Super Dimension Fortress Macross TV series bluray 40th anniversary release with English Subtitles “for Japanese people who want to learn the english language” and Macross Movie “Do You Remember Love?” 40th anniversary release with English Subtitles “for Japanese people who want to learn the english language”.

Anyone else has a feeling that a Hikaru TV VF-1S with Super parts giftset is in the plans? I mean, that valk release itself is a must for a Macross toyline, while Bandai has to add an extra to differentiate it from Roy Focker version.
Aside from the pilot, they only need to replace the name in the canopy.

I need an Ostriche, with no broken shoulders, and not for 500 bucks!
Everyone does, but their Premium Finish should only be with all the TAMPO MARKS ONLY. And NOT, I repeat, NOT the panel lining or weathering just so i will be consistent with the their other DYRL? PF releases.

They're trying to sell mecha toys for a show where they barely got any screen time.
Keep pushing the idol groups, Bandai. Because if there's one thing the world needs it's more idol group shows!
Agreed, the’ve been doing this for a long time. The Bandai 1/55 VE-1 goes for how much nowadays? Yamato reissued the VE-1 with option parts a long time ago, and Arcadia gave it the Premium Finish treatment... When EVERYONE CLEARLY KNOWS (my opinion) that everyone one wants a VT-1 reissued by Arcadia... Preferably in Premium Finish... And when I say premium finish, I mean all the tampo printed on and non of that panel lining or weathering sh*t they’ve been coming up with lately. This is so that it will be consistent with my VF-1S Hikaru Strike Premium Finish.
Oh yeah, and more idol group shows.

To be honest, I really don't think there's proper accuracy in-between toys against its linearts. Here's some pics from @jenius' Anymoon website:
Battroid lineart would not transform to look like its Fighter counterpart lineart. Valks on the other hand from Frontier onwards is more accurate in-between modes and CG models.
Looking at these pix, to me, Arcadia is the king!

Well, hopefuly we see 7 and Frontier subtitled in full glorious Bluray soon.

I’d be happy with some Blu-ray releases with subs.
They did this with the Delta Bluray series. And with the Macross Plus Bluray as well. What they failed to do was put English subtitles to the SDFM Bluray set and the latest DYRL Bluray. I’m gonna say this again, H@rm0ny G0ld DOES NOT OWN the English language. -

I wonder if the English release of Macross 7 will come with Fire Bomber American music.
There should put an option: Japanese audio, Japanese audio w/ Subtitles, English Dub w/ Japanese Songs, English Dub w/ English Songs...

I needed to click the link on the link you posted a second time for it to show up properly. But then the video is “not available”.

This is going to be a weird transition for some pieces.
In their press release they say "Bigwest Co., Ltd. has announced the release of all works that are part of the “Macross” franchise made after 1987 to a worldwide audience from April 9, 2021."
And now we see our first official release of Flashback 2012 to the global market(yay!) but aside from the new animation, it has all the content from prior to 1987 (doh!)
Will any games be able to INCLUDE a VF-1, or do they need to start at the VF-4?
Books etc? What can they include?They hybrid stuff is going to be interesting to watch, but maybe Flashback is they key...it IS a Hybrid, and it is releasable...so maybe this says it all
S
A possible solution to this is to replace the VF-1 with any other Variable Fighter. Just like what they tried doing with the PS1 game Macross VF-X2 release outside of Japan... They will probably need to replace all the UN Spacy kite symbol on the Fighters too...
-
Bigwest will release Macross animation series that were released after 1987 to the world!
Also expect Macross games and Toys.

Let me just add this if it has not been mentioned yet. About the VF-1S Hikaru Strike, some of the antenna on its head are notched. Go check yours.
