  1. Ohhhh it definitely seems like it!
  2. I’m curious to see how they’ll do the VF-19F/S. There are two pretty different wing line art shapes. Yamato leaned into one version; will Bandai do the same shape, or the more delta shape? (I’m fine with either, just curious)
  3. Hmm, it looks… fine? With a couple trade-offs, if anything it’s a testament to how well Yamato did 14 years ago.
  4. Looks like you’re right about the see through gap from the side.
  5. A million people is orders of magnitude above what you would need to minimize recessive disorders. I suspect the hereditary diseases have more to do with the cloning itself than limited numbers, although they do tend to complicate other without some management.
  6. I hate this
  7. Sometimes it's *quite* different, but I don't want to do this dance again, so you win.
  8. Ah hah, my bad. Please lock/ delete.
  9. A company called Unix Square is making Robotech-licensed (I think?) VF-1's with some very very odd proportions and creative liberties. https://www.facebook.com/unixsquare http://www.unixsquare.com/ Just FYI. I don't think it's my cup of tea.
  10. Zentradi. We know there are millions of fleets out there. Do they keep producing more until they’ve stripped local resources and move on, i.e. ecophagy, or do they have some sort of built-in equilibrium algorithm?
  11. You're probably overthinking what in-universe corporate marketing types would name a commercial ship.
  12. When they say “marines” in Macross, are they meaning strictly seaborne troops, delivered by the UN Navy? Or are they including spaceborne forces? If meaning the former, why would they even still exist?
  13. YF-21 notwithstanding. That one’s pretty blatant for the legs obviously not fitting in the fuselage in his sketches, but for some reason he wasn’t too concerned about it. I guess we could chalk it up to squishy skin.
  14. Hah, you're not alone on this one. I've felt like this on multiple occasions. I suspect there's a certain bias due to the amount of (not un-respectable, mind you) work they've put into the publications. I *could* say something, but it'll go round and round until we agree to disagree, or I just lose interest in continuing to argue a super niche topic. However, in this case I would say it's an animation error - for personal edification either imagine some sort of attachment/hangar that does fit the size, or pretend it's some other class that's similar. If I were an animator I'm not sure I'd go back and "correct" such things. It's just not that important, except to a very small subset of people. The "same size" argument counting only the length is a little disingenuous though, I agree.
  15. Whatever size looks coolest is pretty much par for most sci-fi, and it’s kinda been the tradition in Macross since the SDF-1 city. Just feels a bit jarring due to meticulous attention to detail in other areas of the franchise.
