  1. That's not even a video game scheme, it's a custom paint job by one of our members. The M3 scheme is almost entirely blue/red with orange highlights and looks terrible.
  2. I'm not sure how popular a Max inspired scheme would actually be. But I know I'd have at least a few to stuff down my pants.
  3. It does seem like a no-brainer. A lot of people LOVE the look of the VF-4 and pretty much any Skull Squad paint scheme sells like hotcakes. Would be cool if they could hit that. But if not I know of a blue and red one I'd buy...
  4. "Ain't got no time for bird sex" is surprisingly catchy if you're listening in the background at work.
  5. It's too bad Gerwalk is so limited due to that silly brace.
  6. I suppose they could completely redo the Masters portion of the show. Since nobody seems to like Southern Cross anyway they could completely redo it and as long as the Earth gets trashed in the end nobody would really care.
  7. What would a sequel to Mospeada even look like, though?
  8. He's responding to my comment a few posts up. I didn't "wish" mass suicide on anyone, however.
  9. Well I had an interesting interaction with my Father at lunch today. He turns to me and says, "Hey, that Guardians of the Galaxy movie comes out Friday!" I say, "but you don't like Comic Book Movies." To which he replied, "this is different." Maybe I was wrong about people outside of comic fandom being interested in this one. On the other hand pretty much anything he finds funny is terrible. Like, Larry The Cable Guy film terrible.
  10. I don't own any of the videos, Macross or Robotech.
  11. You're more likely to convince them of a mass suicide, I think.
  12. Holy crap!!! It sags THAT much???
  13. Hikaru and Roy flew 1J and 1S, respectively, and people like to buy the hero valk.
  14. I'm glad to hear we've steered you in a direction you're pleased with. That 25F has been restocking everywhere. Maybe it's time to nab one of those as well? The finish on the Bandai Valks is different, though. Very shiny and lots of Tampo. They look/feel different from an Arcadia Valk. Personally I'm a fan of the matte, then again I think you should look into one of the Yamato VF-19 releases as well but they're shiny like the Bandai Valks are too.
  15. Even with all of my bitching about Bandai laziness I want this thing so bad. That fighter mode is sweet.
  16. What was Robotech Remastered? Never heard of it.
  17. It certainly doesn't match the blue of the anime, but I thought it was an attractive shade and looked good on the 0D's frame.
  18. Really, the Battroid and Gerwalk modes were from the original Macross? Because that's what I'm getting at. It's not that awkward. No more so then the VF-1-like VF-4 transformation from that Macross Video Game. I didn't think about the "derivative" in animation part of the equation, however. I'm keeping my $20.
  19. How about that, the one guy who gave Guardians a poor review has pretty much given every single Comic Book movie a poor review as well. The only one that is apparently watchable in his eyes is Winter Soldier and that only manages to be as tolerable as the Katy Perry film was.
  20. Yeah, that's why I never bought one. Unfortunately. I've wanted one for forever but... I don't like any of the options.
  21. To be honest, it's mostly just the designs for me. I like the concept of the story but I feel like, for me personally, whether it's Macross or Robotech it's a missed opportunity for more. The one thing that purely stood out in my mind was the VF-1 and the SDF-1 and have stuck with me... well, that's not true. The Hover Tanks and all of the Mospeada designs were really awesome as well, just not as awesome as what Kawamori came up with. You're right, that's what EVERYBODY remembers. But they can't design or add to that. HUGE problem. Funny thing is if they were smart they'd have tried to put that V-4 design they've added to the RPG Tactics Kickstarter to use in this "new" animation (say what you will about the design, it's the best new thing they've ever come up with. $20 says it was actually a Palladium/Ninja Division invention.) Then at least they would have been leveraging both "new" transforming Mecha with new merchandise all at the same time and it wouldn't have looked like as much of a half-assed mess.
  22. So how are those wing hinges feeling in Battroid without the extra missile pods and attachments for the intakes?
