WOW! http://monkeyfarm.cocolog-nifty.com/nandem...4331/index.html

I can't even begin to defend the movies. At the end of Reloaded I thought the big revelation that Neo had that made him go into a coma after miraculously stopping the squids was that they were inside another matrix in the "real world", and that his coma was him finally getting out into the actual "real world". This would have helped explain the humans as batteries thing. That never happened, and I laughed in disbelief at how horrible the 3rd movie was. I will say that it seemed to me that going above the clouds knocked out all electrical systems in the hover ship. It seems like a bad place to be if you were a machine, some sort of EMP effect. Also it would be hard to get anything above there without having several lightning strikes too. But, since one of the Wachowski "siblings" was having a sex change crisis during the last 2 movies, that sort of explains things for me, oh well...

If the machines and their weapons relied heavily on the sun, and a majority could be wiped out by blocking it out, then it makes sense to do so. Humans could survive by growing plants with lightbulbs. It might mean that the majority of the human race would be wiped out, but some would survive rather than if the machines won, no one would survive. The only reason that the humans did survive, was because the machines kept them around.

Awww, so cute...

Thanks! Edit, hey, that picture is really low resolution...

Can you PM me the website?

HAHA, is there are larger version of this?

I'm with Chowser. These two I really want to see... TV VF-1A MAX Cannon Fodder VF-1A Then if possible the rest... VF-1D VT-1 VE-1 need to come out before reissues.

*waves his fingers in a hypnotic fashion* Give in... you must give in to your temptations... buy fleets of them... remortgage your house to finance your Alpha addictions... You're evil!

Thanks for the pics, now I have to restrain myself from ordering a fleet of them

It's going to be about as big as a 1/48 Imai model. That size is fine by me. Goes good with the 1/48 Yamato Valks.

No, some people don't have problems knocking things without knowing what they're talking about.

AWESOME, thanks for the pics! Looks naked without the sensor on the shoulder Nosecone looks detatchable?

Sounds cool, hope they do a good job.

It probably can land on Earth like in the 70's version... Looks to me like the Starship Enterprise somehow had a baby with a WWII destroyer, and a giant fighter jet.

The anime wasn't all that great. I have some of it unsubbed on VHS. I liked the movie, and the book.

What kind of missle is under the wing in the first pic, or is it another Valk?

Got it on Monday. Looks great! Hmm, I'll probably be putting it together in oh, 2 or 3 years I'm too busy for a while. Maybe this winter I can get back into building. Love these kits though!

Ladic... Some people see only what they want to see. Some people should read the whole darn thing, before jumping into conclusions, because they end up looking funny. edit: to not hurt anyones feelings. PPS: For the too obssessed about Robotech and Macross, I was just pointing out the link, not telling you what to think.

Steve Yun got upset about it... http://www.robotech.com/news/viewarticle.php?id=199

Watch episode 2 the first fight after the credits. One pilots says something to the effect that it's a new fighter, then gets shot down... Very cool looking plane.

That thing is pretty sweet. The price tag on these is crazy though. Weren't WM Cheng's Yukikaze models Hasegawa kits? Those looked really great, are the platz ones really that much better?

Just an idea, check out the rasterbator here, look in the gallery section, I'm sure some Macross images would look really cool done up like this... http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/

Do these count Many more pics here, most are not macross though... http://www.page.sannet.ne.jp/sae9/mecha.html

The 1/40 is just over 6 inches tall, the SuperPoseable is 6.5 inches tall, which means, the 1/55 will probably be around 5 inches.
