The old VF Valkyries are based off of the old F-14s, the wings sweep when needed (although why the wings need to be deployed fully in space is beyond me; could be the thing has OMS in the wings). When the Valk changes to Battloid (I do believe that is the most accurate translation) the vertical stabalators fold inward and down, and the aft fuselage folds ventral and fore 180 degrees as the legs lower and the arms deploy and the gunpod detaches from the belly and is grabbed by the right hand of the craft as this happens to form the GERWALK configuration. The wings then sweep back all the way and lock into each other to form the lower back. The fore and aft sections of the ventral fuselage split, while the legs break away and reattach on either side of the nose of the craft, and the fighter folds in half to form the torso. The belly turrent is deployed as the head of the battloid . The torso locks together completing the transformation.

The only reason why to pick up a copy of Postal is the full version of Postal 2 included in the jewel case (Boll must have a chronic case of head up the ass syndrome ). Verne Troyer must'be been really desperate for money for agreeing to appear in that flick. As for Jackson, he didn't go by the book when he made the extended version for Return of the King. He offed Saruman way too early in the movie (he should've did it in the end, when the Shire was torched, insead of near the beginning of the flick). Oh, and wether he likes or not (I didn't know he despised the long version), Lynch was in the director's chair when the editors cut the long verision, so he shouldn't bitch, since he gets paid wether people buy the short or long version of the film.

I think you mean "p0rn", Uxi. You must be dyslexic, oh I'm sorry, that was a typo .

David Lynch Verhoven's not. Dune is a perfect example of a book-based movie done right (I prefer the long version). At least Lynch made the differances between the book and the movie logical. Starship Troopers was total crap.

Rogue got those powers when Mystique tricked her into draining the original Ms. Marvel, so the recent movies got it right so far. I've got a real obscure one: Atari Force from the mid-Eighties. It has excellent storytelling, and I'm a fan of Jose Luis Garcia Lopez's artwork.

At the cost of having all of the violence and sexual ambiguity cut. (I watched the first few episodes of Gatchaman when it was On Demand, that particular dub was good, not great, but good).

Where the hell is the VF-1S? THE JOLLY ROGERS NEED TO BE REPRESENTED!!!

Harris County, Texas (in the vicinity of the city of Houston).

Let's go 180 from the other topic and discuss movies based on comics you would like to be made. I've got 2 to put up. Lobo (yeah, I'm a sick bastard, deal with it). WildC.A.T.S. (what can I say, I'm a rabid Jim Lee fan; I loved the animated series in the nineties)

That's according to Kawamori (to believe he can create something with his head planted so far up his ass is beyond me). Since Macross II: Lovers Again was produced before the other newer Macross series, it is considered canon by most Macross fans (at least as far as Seto Kaiba is concerned).

Silly me, When I read Games as the title of this forum, I thought it covered all games. Oh well, move away.

The dude's boinking a Kennedy, for god's sake. There's no question where his sexuality lies.

Matchbox never had the rights to the Robotech Exo-Squad toys. Playmates was the company that had the rights to produce the toys. That sucks. Minorly off topic: I wonder why Universal Cartoon Studios weren't able to produce season 3? That season wouldve guaranteed to kick ass, as well as close some major plot holes. Oh well, here's hoping for an OVA release (most likely when hell freezes over).

Uwe Boll and Paul Verhoven top my list. Anything from Boll sucks, and in the case of Verhoven look no further thanm that abomination on cellulite known as Starship Troopers (c'mon, if you're going to make a movie about infantry in mechanized power armor, at least include the damned things).

Well, Bethesda in their infinite wisdom decided to finally rerelease the first three Fallout games that came out on the PC on one DVD. Fallout: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game Fallout 2: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game Fallout Tactics I just started the first game and, well, am haveing a blast with it. I'll give a full review when I get further in the game. Due to legal reasons, the company have to issue the game with the Interplay (Atari) and the Black Isle Studios (most of the employees went on to form Obsidian studios) names attached to the box.

Also, lets not forget the failed attempt to tie in Robotech in with Exo Squad. When Season three of Exo-Squad failed to even get out of production, pissed would not even begin to describe the word in representing my feelings on that subject. Another reason I don't trust Harmony Gold.

I have the first Bay movie figure of Starscream. Damned thing looks like a freaking Slippery When Wet road sign in Robot mode (the freaking torso, at least). Not a bad looking F-22 Raptor mode, though. A word of advice about the figure, do not put the missles into his hands, the firing mechanism is on a freaking hair trigger (I do have them in a safe place, though). Someone please edit the poll to say eat Michael Bay, please.

The three series were Super Dimentional Fortress Macross, Super Dimentional Cavalry Southern Cross, and Genesis Climber Mospeda. The first two shows were a part of an unrelated trilogy of shows known as the Super Dimentionals (the third was Super Dimentional Century Orguss). All three shows were produced by Tatsunoko Studios, a subsidary of Big West. The sereis that was going to bridge the three unrelated series together was Robotech II: The Sentinels (also to be done by Tatsunoko); a show that only had enough money to have three episodes made until the U.S. Dollar tanked against the Yen, and when that happened, Matchbox bailed on the project.

Yeah, I would love to see the franchise back in Carl Macek's hands, anyway. The Three "Musketeers" that run HG really have ruined it, in my opinion.

I was talking about what Harmony Gold did to the franchise with the recent comic books. I really dug the Eternity line of comics. When Wildstorm publishing got ahold of the franchise, they basicly made sure those Eternity stories never happened, i.e. removed from cannon. I hate to see a perfectly good story go to waste. Johnathan Wolff was the Robotech character in the New Generation that betrayed humanity to the Invid. He was killed at the end of that particular episode screaming first his family's then Minmei's name. In the Sentinels, he led the Hovertank platoon known as the Wolff Pack (he's the one with the black mustache). The Malcontent Uprisings comic line really bridged the Macross and Southern Cross storylines nicely.

Was that Christopher Reeve's last flick before he took a header off a horse? If it is, then I haven't seen that particular flick yet.

I should've clarified myself. I would aslo like to see the games translated, since I can't read a lick of Japanese Kanji. Enhancements to the gameplay and the graphics wouldn't hurt either.

I was just giving my opinion and reasons why on wether or not Harmony gold should have their license renewed. It is what this thread is about, isn't it? ... ... I think I'm going to need hip waders to get through that RIVER OF SARCASM I just encountered.

In G1 the Decepticons converted raw recources into Energon using cubes that Soundwave manufacurted. In Transformers Energon, energon is a natural resource here on Earth.

I have Issues #0-6 of the new Wildstrom Robotech series of comic books. I have to say I bailed out on the franchise when I found out what they did to Johnathan Wolff in that particular comic line. Steve Yun and the gang in their infinite wisdom decided to have him staitioned onboard the SDF-1 insead of the New Alburquerque base during the Macross Saga, and decided that the Malcontent Uprisings and Sentenels storylines never existed (I can understand them not wanting having anything to do with the Sentinels, that story became a train wreck when Matchbox bailed); that was one of the best Robotech storylines out there (I love Chris Ulm's artwork, and the Breetai solo story in either issue #7 or #8 was the best ever written). For the Seirra Hotel Indigo Tango that company has pulled, Hamony Gold doesn't deserve to have its license renewed. I'd sic Leroy Jethro Gibbs on that corporation if I could. Carl Macek certailny flubbed when the company was taken over by Steve Yun, Tommy Yune, and Tom Bateman, but the guy's busy running ADV here in Houston, Texas (bet you guys didn't know that company was headquartered in that city, now did you?).
