Two new pictures have been released. First up is another of the ladies, Nova Satori.

Also available is a picture of Zor Prime, but who wants to see him?

I was always the ONLY valkyrie around and I had to protect a slow-moving(or immobile) target against endless waves of foes. Where's my damn squadron at, you know!?

Protecting their own slow-moving and immobile targets against other waves of hordes and hordes of Zentradi

EDIT:

Now that I've had some time to think about it, I actually enjoyed the solo slant to the missions. To me, it showed just how outnumbered the humans were against the surviving Zentradi, and nowhere near ALL of them were humanized and pacified. It also showed just how rare the VF-1 was on the planet. There were not that many VF-1s (or Destroids, for that matter) to help guard and rebuild the entire planet, so it's only natual that they'd be outnumbered more often than naught.

Greate shading. I love it!

Did anyone go to the Robotech booth and see the new game footage?

Conversely, is the much lower popularity of Macross caused by the fact that the creators, most notably Kawamori like to take Macross in completely new and original directions with each new anime and never retread the same ground.

Actually, I think there's a problem with this statement.

I see a startling similarity between the main characters in all the Macross series'. I mean, I look at Hikaru, and I easily see Shin and Isamu doing exactly the same things, with exactly the same responses in the mecha.

They all start off as hot-dogging, authority-resisting types. Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing a new type of main character.

I just gave in to temptation and put in a pre-order for two of these suckers in at VE.com.

So I'll be able to nyah-nyah at all of you who didn't

Honestly, I don't see why they even bother with trying to do a robotech sequel. 3 DVD releases of the exact same material, and they expect a loyal fanbase? Sheesh!

Surf over to RT.com and see just what sort of loyal fanbase there is.

Speaking of the blonde Chick, does anyone know what her name is given in the end credits?  I'd be interested to see if she was possibly named felicia or gwen.

I was just about to ask that.

According to the novel, the girl's name is Ursula.

As far as I know, the game is based on the New Generation Part of Robotech, while the new series is After the New Generation.

Bingo.

Jackoffs will say anything to make a $. How much more of this crap do we have to put up with? I know I don't like buying anything that isn't official Macross merchandise.

Then don't. Nobody is forcing you to buy anything you don't want to. Just stick with your Yamato's and leave everyone else to make their own choices about what to spend their money on.

It's getting a little clearer, thanks.

But I still need a toy of my own to be sure

Cool, huh?

Well, it *would* be if I had any inkling as to what you were trying to describe

I must admit, this toy will solve a lot of the problems I have with understanding the Alpha transformation sequence, especially with those wings. I have no idea how the wings go from their position in Guardian mode to folded up on the back in Battloid mode.

Oh, well. I guess this means I have to buy a few dozen and find out for myself, eh?

* Nobody knows what happened to the Megaroad.

Tell us, oh wise one, what DID happen to the Megaroad?

It became the Miniroad?

Bah, it's not that big a deal. Heck, your posts are easier to read than some of our native-english speakers

Looking at those new pictures brings up a question. The only visible hinges I see are in the wings so the flaps can flip around to form the back. But what about the rest? How does the nosecone flip up and backwards without a big ugly hinge visible on the fusulage in Fighter mode?

Thanks for the pics, now I have to restrain myself from ordering a fleet of them

*waves his fingers in a hypnotic fashion*

Give in... you must give in to your temptations... buy fleets of them... remortgage your house to finance your Alpha addictions...

I'm really liking the more drab, darker blue they're using rather than the brighter blue shown on the recent photos on RT.com. makes the Legioss look more military.

You can say that again. I'm loving the colour scheme they're chosen.

Then again, I'm also okay with the metallic blue we were shown before

Man Fay and the double standard that dwells. I trhink it is BS they made Man Fay cover up. If he was a chick, they would hold the door open for her.

This same double standard plagues many places. I think it is BS that a chick can walk into a club with pasties over her nipples, a skirt with her @$$ hanging out and open toed shoes but they won't let a guy in because his shirt is not collard/ has writing on it or because his shoes are sneakers or sandles.

Welcome to the world of double-standards. It's called "real life" and sooner or later, we all need to deal with it.

*crack the whip*

Post now!

Robotech, but I'm sooooooooooo sick of people knocking it when they obviously have no idea what they're talking about.

Better get used to that here, pal, if you're gonna stick around for any length of time. Trust me on this.

At least it looks like they fixed those ugly seams in the legs.

Shadow technology? What is this, Robotech Vs. Babylon 5?

I was thinking the same thing. God, I'd love to hear good ole JMS on this issue. He never met a challenge to his rights that he didn't love

I suppose everyone is just glossing over the fact that Robotech has been using "Shadow Fighters" and "Shadow cloaking devices" right from the original show, eh?

Does anyone have the tiny teaser pic of the Gamma fighter that RT.com released many, many moons ago?

and J.K. Simmons.

J.K. Simmions' JJJ is one of the best reasons to go see the Spider-Man movies. They cast that role PROPERLY. And Hoffman. Hoffman is funny

According to the DVD features for Daredevil, the character of Elektra in the movie was so well-received that the people in charge decided that while she was dying on the rooftop, she was revived in the ambulance ride to the hospital.

That's how she was able to leave her cartouche on Matt's rooftop for the final scene in DD. Here's hoping to getting DD at least a guest-star bit in this movie.

This weekend will either clear things up for the good, or enrage fanboys everywhere.

I can you exactly how most here on MW will react.
