I'd call it adulthood with a touch of nostalgia.

Looks like they redesigned the turrets on Macross Quarter. The bridge section looks exactly the same. You can see the Tornado pack on Alto's VF. It passes on the screen quickly. I'm finding myself to be unimpressed by it. Almost looks awkward on it. The Super parts look better on it.

What, compared to other pachinko machines? If Yamato was re-animated like that in a weekly series...I'm sure you'd be there.

The Tornado pack on that 1/72 looks like a sculpt so I would give it a few more months to see the final version. On the other side...I sense floppy shoulders on the VF-27 in addition to back problems. Might be one that will probably only see fighter mode, without the stand.

PG 00 Raiser ain't looking too bad either. http://ngeekhiong.blogspot.com/2009/10/pg-...-from-49th.html And I'm still quite amazed at MG Blue Frame 2nd Revised's mobility. http://ngeekhiong.blogspot.com/2009/10/pg-...-all-japan.html

All those clips are from the pachinko game. And unless you want to go to Japan, bust into a pachinko parlor just to crack open one of these slot machines to grab the software containing these clips, there isn't much to say about it. Of course, you can always go to Japan, drop in at the pachinko parlors and play just this one machine all night.

'Bout frakkin time. But out of curiousity...why ver. Ka? V was designed by Katoki in the first place.

Gotta keep up with the times. Why not have another anniversary book.

I would have your buying plan ready just in case something were to happen now.

I would say, think "heatsink" for the beam cannons.

That's what I'm saying...

At least he hasn't watched Code Eros...or those Eva porn...or the many Lum porn... Don't watch any of those. In fact, just stay away from any anime-to-live action porn all together.

The Guantanamos are AKA "Advance ARMDs" and derived from the ARMDs, according the entry on Macross 7's ships in Issue #16. But the Guantanamos are a different class of ARMD (hence Guantanamo class). That still doesn't clear up sketchley's issue between the TV series ARMDs and the DYRL? ARMDs, as I understand it. Those 2 are suppose to be the same class yet have enough changes to differentiate the 2, hence his confusion about are they a new class or a remodel. As I've said, it might be best to keep them separate until this is clarified.

I'll go back and check the issues for the ARMD entries. But I still say sand boxing the articles might be the best to maintain some kind of sanity. Yeh, it might help to read it, first. It said that the SDFN's purpose was the investigate and secure routes ahead of Megaroad-01. It did say they look similar to Macross. Didn't see anything about the ARMDs in that Glossary entry. So I can't give you a good answer to your question about the ARMDs. It might be a typo. http://www.scribd.com/doc/355191/The-Timid-Bunny

It's up on Hulu for anybody that missed it. The vibe I'm getting with Stargate Galactica is well, BSG, Lost in Space with a bit of Sliders and a brunette that looks like she should be in a Joss Whedon show thrown in. I may pick at it but I don't know if I want to go back for seconds.

To paraphrase a famous captain, the last thing I want is a visit from Temporal Investigations when I walk out of this thread....

I believe they are using that particular ARMD as the example. Some of the original lineart used ARMD 362 so I'm guessing they're picking on that particular ARMD. I'm looking at it this way, if they are marked for a specific series, that's where they apply to. When I first saw the multiple entries for SDF-1 Macross, the second thing that I noticed was that each was marked with TV, DYRL, and II. So what they say about SDF-1 for the TV series doesn't necessarily apply to the DYRL?, nor II. I would approach the ARMD entries for TV and DYRL? the same way. In other words, I'm sort-of sandboxing the glossary entries to their respective series. The movie version of the ARMDs only apply to DYRL?. The TV show ARMDs only apply to SDFM.

Hush! Go back to your Ohnogi Macross novels.

In fact, that book is listed as the reference for the Master File book. So I doubt the canon of the Master File. I won't. This whole book is based on a doushinji. So.... (Really, does Kawamori even look at this stuff anymore)

People don't seem to understand the problem with the Ohnogi novels and why telling Gubaba to look for them is a REALLY BAD IDEA.

Well, Kawamori is listed as the supervisor of the book, but the entire thing wasn't written by him according to the credits in the back of the book. In fact, Nanashino mentioned it looks like an update MAT book. So I'm inclined to believe it is an update to MAT.

Hachiko: A Dog's Tale Jeebus....Now Hollywood has gone and bastardized Hachikō Monogatari. Few years ago, it was the horror movies. Now their working up to the animal movies. Guess we should be glad they haven't tried Battle Royale yet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hachik%C5%8D

That's just lighting.

It may be best to wait till you have that 500-700 ready all at once. You can build an AMD-based system instead of an Intel-based system to cut down the costs. Since you are using a lot of old parts, incremental updates will be hard. Otherwise, I would recommend you update components like your video card (we'll get to that in a minute). At a 500-700 budget, I would consider a mid-range Nvidia card. You could probably do better with a high-end ATI card but I would need to know what kind of case you are using now since you intend to keep it and pass it on. You will need to factor in a new video card in there unless you plan on using on-board video. Your old AGP video card will not work with newer computers (it's a dead standard).
