    I love Mylene and this is completely accurate.

    Not sure if they'd go backwards. I imagine part of the reason for another movie is to keep the tie-in with the existing Walkure, so I'd bet on either something after or concurrent with the show.

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    Zx31 replied to seti88's topic in Toys

    Does there appear to be any damage to the lid of the box that would indicate an impact? If the box looks like it didn't take a hit, I'm almost wondering if the laser wasn't sitting in the lowered position when it was packaged and something in the process of placing and sealing the clear shell over the styrofoam caused the break. Wild theory

    For about 2 seconds I thought your left vertical stab was missing.

    I recall them talking about fold quartz being an export, but I don't remember the part about renegotiation and Grammier starting the war over it, though the issue with trade restrictions does ring a bell since they mentioned they thought the Earth Government had given them a bad deal. So I defer to you on that issue, since that sounds plausible and my memory isn't as good in this instance. Still think NUNS actions were questionable, but agree to disagree on that point.

    Force-ably occupying a planet when the native government doesn't want you there seems like a pretty good reason to go to war to make them leave. I don't recall the exact cause of the war being mentioned, but if the stated facts about the NUNS forces on Windermere are true it could be inferred that NUNS activities didn't help disarm the situation and may have in fact made them worse. Windermere didn't start using the VAR outbreak as a weapon until after NUNS dropped the warhead and forced a cease fire. Windermere didn't even know it could be used as a weapon until they did their own research after the end of the war. I'm also more inclined to believe the stated intent that Wright was attempting to get as far away from populated areas as possible based on the flight data shown in the show at face value than the nebulous idea that he was loitering over a city. Do the decisions made by NUNS make sense in the context of all that happens in Delta? Yeah, probably, but I very much doubt that those decisions were driven by a desire to protect the Globular Cluster.

    The target of the Dimension eater was the Sigur Berrentzs, which was right next to a large population center. At the time there was nothing to suggest that the Windermereans were planning anything hostile, it was all an worst case assumption that NUNS turned into a self-fulfilling prophecy by attacking first. So saying that the only thing they did wrong was blaming Windermere is somewhat silly considering that they attacked without provocation, using an illegal weapon, against a population center that would have killed innocents, after they stole DNA in a secret espionage mission. Regardless of the intent and goal, the methods used by NUNS weren't any better than the Windermerean response. It also didn't much seem like NUNS was trying to protect the galaxy on Ragna by nuking the ruins when after the weapon goes off and the protoculture ruins appear from fold space, they claim that they have all the data they need and then retreat, as if they knew the weapon wouldn't actually prevent the Winderemereans from taking control and only wanted the data in order to advance their own weapon program. Stealing the Star Singer's DNA, bombing the Sigur Berrentzs after studying it and the proto culture ruins, creating a clone from said DNA, covering it all up, and then triggering the final piece of Roid's plan to activate the Sigur Berrentzs network in order to gain additional data all seems like an attempt to further NUNS own weapons program at the expense of everything else and not like they were trying to save anyone in the cluster from Windermerean aggression.

    Well, there's all that surface area. It'd be a shame not to fill it with idols.

    The giant war crime of a dimensional crater that is frequently shown in Delta seems pretty direct to me, but...

    and NETFC
  12. Zx31
    That works both ways. Fans of Delta are also fans of Macross, so getting mad at them for being excited for something they're into isn't being very respectful either.
  13. Zx31
    Delta is great and I'm glad that it's getting another movie. I guess it shows how popular it is that they're continuing to sell out concerts and decided to continue with Delta instead of a new series. (Not that this excludes the possibility of a new series, but we haven't heard about it yet)

    I thought the wings not tabbing in with the FAST Packs attached was intentional in order to keep the ability to open the leg bays as shown in the OVA

    Both, but I got the 22 first so I keep mixing up the numbers.

    Zx31 replied to seti88's topic in Toys

    Huh, I must be an outlier because I rather enjoy the DX 19 transformation. Though, I also didn't have any problems with the DX 262. My most frustrating transformations have been the first time going battroid and back with the YF-22 and trying to get the heat shield on either VF-11 to stay put.

    I love that they never remove it from the bridge for the rest of the series.
  18. Zx31
    Gepelnitch is (he) btw

    The only persons in Frontier I felt like got any development were Sheryl and Ranka while everyone else stayed pretty much the same as when they were introduced, but that's just, like, my opinion, man...
  20. Zx31
    I enjoyed all the characters in Delta and think they were written better than the majority of the characters in Frontier, 7, or SDF. Yes there is room for improvement, but I think they did well considering the size of the cast and the time allowed.

    Dropped some cash at Y!J last week.
  22. Zx31
    Pretty sure that was in reference a certain video posted earlier, which has been removed from existence both here and the source. (Not that I would know anything about that)
  23. Zx31
    Agreed. Though there's so many different factors in how that stuff is presented that everyone can have wildly different opinions on it from show to show.
  24. Zx31
    It's been around for a while, though I think Frontier was more egregious between Alto / Sheryl. Mylene in 7 also had a few questionable encounters with that kid flipping up her skirt and nearly getting raped (twice). None are great moments. I don't get the impression that Walkure is any more fan service than they did with Ranka, Sheryl, or Mylene.

    That's not a markup, they just aren't giving you a pre-order discount.
