    This has got to be an April Fool's Day prank. 🥸

    I was looking forward to this release, but with all the gears, electronics, LEDs and die-cast parts depicted in that promotional video, it'll obviously cost several hundred dollars more than I can afford... 😭

    The vast majority of us here grew up with Robotech, undoubtedly, but after decades of watching HD Macross and Mospeada fansubs, hearing any of it in English again is jarring... If the original broadcasts of Robotech had been properly remastered for Blu-ray (and released back when physical media was still dominant), it might've mattered, but certainly not now... and especially not in the poor state it finally arrived. 😒 Southern Cross, for all its faults, is still superior to The Robotech Masters, although its abysmal home video releases make the Robotech Blu-rays, by default, the best way of appreciating that series. 😐

    Heads up, guys. For those of you who haven't checked the Model kits section recently: The order deadline is only a few days away, and we haven't reached the minimum threshold yet. Help make this big beauty a reality!

    ...but retro-style 5POA action figures are not. 😒 This "deliberately poor" figure production and marketing trend is really getting out of hand. Is there really a larger market for crap than for decently-sculpted figures with modern articulation? 🤨

    Yeah, that's exactly what I posted on Facebook. 😅

    Yet another dream becomes a reality. Count me in, Cap.' PM sent. 👌

    Oh, no argument there! Much of Toho's output is just unwatchable. 😒 As much as I hated Godzilla vs. Kong, King Kong vs. Godzilla was much, much worse. 🙄

    It'll undoubtedly be better than those Godzilla x Kong movies... 🤮

    EXO-Squad, of course. 😉

    Lots, yeah! This one's my favorite:

    Ugly? Yeah, character designs have been trending towards the ugly for some time now, and (if G-Quacks is any indication) mecha designs are, too. 😒 Sloppy? Not even a little. The budget clearly allowed for significantly high production value, and the animation looks smooth and expressive.

    No, just couldn't justify the cost of the license. Perhaps a new source of funding presented itself. Frankly, I'd much rather see him release more Zentraedi figures to go with his Breetai... His other figure prototypes looked a whole lot better than that Southern Cross merch. 😒

    Actually, I had to abandon much of the paint work I'd done after I acquired The Robotech Masters on Blu-ray: Color reproduction is much better than on the old Southern Cross DVDs, and "Bug Face" is affected most significantly. With higher-quality reference material to work from, I realized my initial color scheme wasn't accurate. I hope to have it repainted, assembled, and displayed at this year's "40 years of Robotech" exhibit, along with Thomas Hawk, my Space Crabs, and another 1:48 kit I've just started work on... 😎

    We had them in Canada...
