  1. Probably one of them is to deploy the bayonet while the other as Nanashi so elequently put, shoots the gun. Great job again big N, so....got any info on the VF-19s pod? Also possible it's a grip safety. Though the logic of including such a device on a mech-carried rifle escapes me.
  2. To be fair, that's one where the Rawbooteck name IS quite similar to the Macross name. Well, Misa/Lisa, anyways. Hayase/Hayes is more of a stretch. But it's not totally out of nowhere like Rick Hunter.
  3. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Paramount takes a perverse joy in raping the fans. That's why the last batch of DVDs didn't sell. 2 episodes a disk, for something like 30$ per disk.
  4. According to the Compendium(macross.anime.net), she's japanese.
  5. I wouldn't think mass had anything to do with an electric's sound. Ah well.
  6. Been there, done that... the people I was playing with all quit.
  7. If I recall, the premise was that Merlin brought them to fill in for the REAL King Arthur and the knights of the round table, because they were kidnapped. Sidenote: Captain N did the football team thing first. For reasons lost to the ages, Mother Brain decided to challenge the heroes to a game of football, filling her team out with Dr. Wily's boss robots. And somehow, Kevin's high school football team was abducted to fill out our heroes' team. Along with his girlfriend. ... Sometimes I wonder why I watched those things.
  8. I'm ChunLi! ... That M. Bison description is funny, though. Heck, all of them are.
  9. Many other stores pulled hteir stock from the shelves to protect it. And word is that they're getting another shipment in for the sale. And if all else fails, try to take someone else up on ea price-matching offer once they send the flyer out.
  10. Ahhh... this thread brings back memories... sweet mis-spent youth...
  11. Ah. That makes more sense.
  12. Tell us, oh wise one, what DID happen to the Megaroad? It became the Miniroad? Hehe. Yeah, you know, that black hole thing. Misa says, "Hey wonder what that is?" and they all die. Seriously now, SOMEBODY PLEASE scan the booklet for the SegaSaturn game so we can bury this beaten, dead horse. I agree. Someone please do that. Question: What is Magaroad? And how does this SegaSaturn bootlet relate to it, hence burying that beaten, dead horse? Please forgive me, since I'm relatively new to Macross - I'm passed the newbie stage, but I need to be brought up to speed with all the little nuances to fully understand. This is one of those nuances. Thanks! Megaroad = the colony ship that Hikaru, Misa, and Minmay left on after the original TV series ended. The Saturn booklet came with the Macross:DYRL game, and lays out the major series events, as I understand it.
  13. P. "LISTEN TO MY SONG!" R. VF-19 comm systems disabled. We now return you to your regularly-scheduled non-mocking of Macross 7.
  14. And, of course, there were the Macross Plus hissy-fits.
  15. *raises an eyebrow* It SOUNDS like you're pressing the mode button, not the select button.
  16. While HG bought the right to air the series, I think everyone here can agree that they distorted, mutilated and other modification against SN/Kawamori's will. Based on what they bought from TP, Did HG have the right to do that? In other words, did TP have the right to mutilate it? As far as I know, Tatsunoko only had distribution rights. While debatably they could have done mild editing for purposes of making it acceptable to air, I very seriously doubt that distribution rights includes the abiity to rewrite the program to any signifigant degree.
  17. I've done it a time or 2. Usually when I was bored.
  18. Although it could be interpreted as Harmony Gold covering their own butts from prosecution, I really think that, if you look at The Sentinels, the characters are SO changed that one couldn't really argue to the contrary. (Though I always found it interesting to think of Max's look in The Sentinels juxtaposed with his look in Macross 7...) Oh, and about the VF-1?--The original Valkyrie series never showed-up in The Sentinels animation, only the Alpha-Beta/Legioss-Tread series. Hmm...Kinda gives notice once again to the idea that Harmony Gold had worked to use the material (at least in animation) to which they hold rights, and not challenge mighty Big West to a legal duel. Actually the VF-1 did make an appearance in the Sentinels during the wedding piece. As did zentradi Regulds, if I recall.
  19. Indeed. Or maybe threats... "Look buddy, your kid wants these DVDs... If I think that bill is too high, he just may get them. And you wouldn't want that, would you?"
  20. I believe it's a Gundam thing. Yes, yes it is. The last one was the character Puru from Double Zeta. Extremely annoying character. I know her from SD Gundam.
  21. Bleh. Mine was totally void of the bargain titles. Cleaned out well before I got there, if not well before the sale started.
  22. If I was pedantic, I'd point out Yellow/Lancer only took out Jagd/Shadow Drones, not actually piloted Dark Legioss/Shadow Fighters. Thank god I'm not At any rate, I see no problem with continued use of Shadow Fighters... as long as they don't extend it to everything (Shadow Cyclones! Shadow Destroids! Shadow SDF-5! Shadow VF-1!) and that it remains at the level of Mospeada/New Gen, just defeating sensors, not becoming an all-singing, all-dancing Star Trek style Cloaking System... Cyc SHADOW BREETAI HELMET! ... Okay... no... if there's one thing I DON'T want to see it's another HG revision of our favorite zentradi with a plate in his head.
  23. I believe it's a Gundam thing.
  24. That's implied in the forum structure. You may notice that toys is a subcategory of "Macross Discussions". ... What doesn't make sense is why "other anime and science fiction" is a subcategory of "Macross Discussions".
  25. HAHAHA! High point of my day, right here!
