I want really commenting on anything Gundam has done, I've watched two full Gundam series and neither of them are even UC lol. I just latched on to how Gundam does super prototypes to bring up what that sounds like in reality.

Accurate, there is a real use case for doing the Gundam thing though, and that's called a technology demonstrator. It's a unit full of new and experimental stuff designed to trial things out and figure out how to apply then to production and other prototypes. The tech demo itself is not designed to be a fielded unit, but sometimes it can take the shape of a super capable highly expensive unit. In truth doing it like this isn't economical and most tech will be tested piecemeal but it's an option to do it Gundam style. There is a pseudo example in Macross with the YF-30 which is in truth a tech demo for the Fold Dimensional Resonance system developed by Aisha Blanchette. To wit the flight unit is described not as a variable fighter but a variable super dimension diver. So why the YF code? In short, SMS didn't want to tell the NUNG about the specs and the laws of how VF prototypes work says they don't need to disclose details for production prototypes. So they lied. Obviously the events of Macross 30 ensured they got caught so the design became known, which indirectly led to the supposed YF-31 that became the Kairos by Surya Aerospace, which doesn't have the fancy tech in it of course.

If your think the transformation of the Sv-262 toy causes anxiety the 303 would have been 10x worse lol.

I knew from the picture it was different but I wanted to clarify just in case someone who didn't know the difference and hadn't kept up didn't know there was an option (albeit pricy) in other markets.

The UK does have a collectors edition though through Anime Limited, which is also available in America through Crunchyroll store. It's not cheap but it has both versions in it. I know because I own it lol.

Yeah that's all decades old spaceflight jargon and dark humor that came from old pilots and the steely-eyed missile men at Mission Control. SpaceX is just following up their legacy. Great work but it wouldn't be without what the vintage NASA did first.

Relatively Space does more of 3D printed rocket components than any other space launch company, though even they are walking it back on new designs for cost reasons. SpaceX has done it but not to a large scale. And in all truth SpaceX isn't even directly operated to that guy's direction, it's run by Gwynne Shotwell who does a very thankless job considering all the things they accomplish (and the press they have to deal with for iterative design testing being inherently destructive but the layman just seeing it as failure). I'm all for dunking on Musk but he takes too much credit (good and bad) for a lot of other people's work. He is more directly responsible at Tesla though which causes most of the aforementioned BS trending.

Well... That's what all 5th Gen VFs have, so we know exactly what that looks like. It actually avoids causing bits because pilots can survive higher G-loads. Technically the YF-21 and VF-22 had the tech from the Q-Rau but it was limited. 5th Gen like the VF-25 and up all have the Inertia Store Converter powered by fold quartz. I'll leave it to Seto to get into the technicals because he'll do it anyway regardless of what I say lol. Plus he has that information on hand and I don't.

As another engineer, an aerospace one even, I understand your disbelief. I think we have to consider just how efficient and hot this reaction is, it's more than we're imagining for sure. And like Seto said it's based on advanced alien tech we can't replicate with real world analogues. This is a classic unobtanium situation, in the literary sense. It's something that physics says is completely doable but the capability is entirely outside of reality as we know it, but not as they in the continuity know it. That's always my preferred kind of sci-fi tech, rather than technobabble that means nothing.

In case it's unclear, that stuff bring cut on the one release was only done because it was packaged with a video game and by Japanese law it had to match the game rating. There was never a reason beyond that for DYRL to be censored for any content beyond that the game was marketed for a younger age group. By this logic all releases with just the movie are basically always going to have everything.

Couldn't tell ya anything. I'm just reporting what I've looked up and others say about that. I'm not an audio expert.

Yeah, so audiophiles will like the Linear PCM option overall, but if you have an actual 5.1 surround system set up, the DTS will be more immersive despite the compression used. I have a 4K TV with a soundbar. It's moot so I used PCM.

So from what I've been told, both versions of the movie on the disc are upscaled and enhanced, the difference is the content, the 1984 doesn't have the Angel Paints concert outro, which is like 2 minutes worth of visuals at best, and the 2016 does. The 2016 cut also has the DTS audio option of course which if you have the right audio set up will be ideal. Most people's average TV set up likely won't notice a big difference either way I think. And just so it's fully out there, the options are the same on each disc, with the UHD disc having everything in the full 4K whereas the Blu-ray disc is just HD.

Well I have yet to watch Frontier on stream actually, I'm still finishing a 7 rewatch. If I remember I'll watch for that.

Like the name or specific lyrics? The name has been official since the song was released on CD and streaming. You can see that almost anywhere because it's almost always displayed in English (as the lyric is sung in English). If you are questioning other lyrics, we might need more specificity.
