Well, I also happen to be a fan of LEGO (my other addiction) and I haven't heard anything about acquistion of a Macross or Robotech license (which, I think, would be an unlikely move for them). In fact, they seem to be making sort of a grass roots movement over at LEGO and, while licenses are still money makers (particularly Star Wars), they're trying to get make to more traditional sets.
Maybe someone saw one of these MOCs ("My Own Creation"):
those are FoundryDX kits. the 1s is available for purchase, but you will have to do some customization for a 1a
