I agree there was already that shock, just how earlier snippets of info made it seem as if it would come when the whomever person showed up on the bridge so who knows. I just didn't see it so much as a "culture" shock as just a plain WTF shock haha but yeah Sara showing up would be pretty pimp

dang at this point it could end up being the spirit of Ranshe for all we know, which could wake Ranka from her stuper and make her realize what a psycho genocide crazy girl she's been but yeah I was sorta wondering if it might be Minmei but not sure if that would really be the "culture shock" they mention. So who knows at this point. Though a huge concert with Basara/Minmay/Sheryl would be awesome lol

yeah definitely agree with you there. If she were then she'd be just a piece of meet Also yes I think we all are pretty sure at this point that Alto jumped ship behind the carrier. As many have said his VF171EX charged straight at Brera and didn't even try any evasions. So staged. All hail Alto-hime the actor who will save the galaxy!

well not so much a sexual object but she's definitely a piece of fanservice more often then not when she is macronized form. Think of say the @$$ shot when she comes up the lift after Michel died, the first time she was seen by Alto in the hangar, etc etc. Nothing I wouldn't expect from other animes though so yeah I dont think its over exploition compared to other shows. anyways I'm still waiting on gg to download so I can watch the subs

makes since I was trying to recall if they even had it since it seemed only the VF25's really showed it off

thing with the ex gear seems like we've never ever seen a regular NUNS pilot get out in time with it if they even really have it haha maybe there were budget cuts

you know I can't lie I felt the exact same way LOL and while I felt wrong it did just feel like when you have that song backing you up then you MUST be the good guys X_X

yep wasn't it this episode where we see Ranka and her brother singing/playing on the hill with Ranshe sitting down and Vajra all flying above their heads? I thought it was a pretty clear picture of her face. I'll have to go rewatch it to see how much she might resemble Sheryl though interesting idea overall Also back when Grace "Abandoned" Sheryl though didn't she call her "Fairy 9" or whatever number as in there were others before her? I really need to go back and rewatch some things to refresh my memory. But I think at the time I had the idea that she was just another failed experiment in a line and since she had found Ranka she was just completely abandoning the project since it no longer mattered. as for the earrings it could still be she just makes as many as she wants. I really want to know though if they are THE exact same earrings we see in the Macross Zero Blu Ray edition. That would still be awesome

yeah that first one is majorly majorly similiar to the Raptor. now the bomber......not so much. Doesn't really resemble it to much at all. Sometimes like on All that VF Frontier edition I thought the VF25's "slightly" resembled the SU27's or whatever but only from certain angles. but yeah the YF24 is like spot on

thats what I was trying to remember. So probably just a sad footnote in the story because we just have to be on the "VF25" because we're at the 25th anniversary mark and all. at least it got mentioned I guess. did have an interesting design though

yeah I kinda forgot about this its been so long ago watching the ep. Didn't they say something along the lines like they started its development but then the 25 basically outdid it in every respect so it was possibly abandoned? I really can't remember now you've got me all curious I have to go rewatch that ep!

ditto to that statement. From the sub I remember he basically said "how ironic" that she played Dr. Mao. As in just a wild coincidence. Never saw anything about it being "Destiny"

yes definitely if its the EX version and now that you mention it a Recon version would look pretty slick especially in fighter mode

I vote yes again you list exactly WHY I want them Graham. Because as much as I drool over the Hasegawa YF-19 I will never in a million years be able to make it look that good. And thats the whole reason I want it is for the wonderful look in fighter mode so that I can display them. I love all the modes but definitely want a few to throw out in fighter mode and fighter mode only. To me the models being just 20 bucks or so doesn't matter since it would never look as great as the pictures of a finished product when I'm done. Definitely would love for it to have all of the nice attachments for FAST packs, a good stand to show it in flight mode ect. Like you if they had these I'd go for more of the newer model planes from series like Plus etc. In the end this is a hobby like any other so you pretty much have to go in knowing your going to "Waste" some money sometimes haha. But if you love it then who cares!

Personally I would just because I enjoy displaying the fighter mode as well. Such as with some fully tranformable models the fighter mode isn't always that great such as with the YF-19 (I like the straight figher hasegawa model better proportion wise) so yeah different strokes for different folks or whatever but I'd buy one

I hear you I'm holding on with all I got the tensions killer!

ah hahaha nice one can take it a step further with "real/all natural" vs "fake/cybernetically enhanced"

yeah I was wondering the same thing though since it was the SMS who were just doing final tests on the VF25 I dont see why they couldn't get a couple for Alto and Luca pretty easily. I mean its not like the SMS privately developed them so ya know haha as for Alto yeah if they did he may totally have space aids. Course I sorta joked awhile back about the ending having all 3 doing some odd singing/acting and that if Alto had the power he could drive all of the Vajra nuts with his elite Hime power which causes them to self implode........it could happen

yeah shinsen rocks, the quality of the video (colors/contrast) are just so much better than Lunar and some of the other avi downloads the high res of course are nice on their own I download those as well but I can't stream them to the plasma haha but yeah I'll take the best I can get even if I have to wait awhile. Just like most I'm only going to burn the good stuff. now if my prayers would just be answered and someone would license MF and release it on Blu Ray *cries tears of please god let it happen joy*
