  1. And god knows how long Apple and Samsung have been throwing litigation at each other, yet Apple still goes back to Samsung because Samsung has the built-up manufacturing capabilities that Apple needs. The kicker will come if Tatsunoko decides not to renew Mospeada or Southern Cross. Those 2 shows are free from any legal issues.
  2. There is nothing stopping them from making a "Robotech" reboot. One free of Tatsunoko-owned properties.
  3. To be fair, HG doesn't have to mention BW's involvement that much as that would likely add fuel to Tatsunoko's fire. This filing relates more to the arbitration with a healthy dose of backstory to fill in the gaps of why HG is suing Tatsunoko (Thanks for all the juicy bits of info, HG). Does this sour the relationship between Tatsunoko and HG? Dunno. Depends. And 2021 is still a ways to go. Will Tatsunoko file their brief with the court? Dunno. We'll see. Did HG pay their share (if any) of the arbitration costs? If so, how much? Did Tatsunoko see that as repayment for defending their claim against Big West? Hence, in Tatsunoko's eyes, HG hasn't paid their share of the arbitration costs (legal fees, etc), if any. Has HG shared revenue from RT sales with Tatsunoko to compensate them for exploiting the license? If Tatsunoko can show they paid HG the costs of the arbitration and any other amount they owe HG, then that pulls the rug out from under HG's feet. Now, Tatsunoko could pay the fees, then come 2021, re-negotiate a licensing deal which favors them or they would end the current licensing deal. If we want to be petty.
  4. That's just trademarking Macross Delta in other countries.
  5. Considering Hollywood's track record with anime->Live action, no. Please dear god, no.
  6. Anyone have of copy of this court filing? I feel like doing some light reading. It feels like Tatsunoko is trying to stick it to HG by not paying the arbitration costs so HG is throwing this lawsuit at Tatsunoko to make them pay. Which brings up something...if Tatsunoko still refuses to pay and lets the licensing lapse in 2021, then finally decides to pay, the licensing may fall back to Tatsunoko...There's a lot of jumping in there but I'm just wondering out loud.
  7. Ah. So it's a "Where's my money?!"-case.
  8. It's likely a money grab but likely to clarify what they own with regards to Battletech. I'd look into the lawsuit with Battletech. That would likely give us an idea about what this separate filing is about. Edit: OK, I think I know what this might be about. If they are suing Battletech and if Battletech's claim is legit, then HG is suing Tatsunoko for breach of contract since HG is supposed to have exclusive rights to the designs (in regards to merchandising). So this issue needs to be settled before the lawsuit with Battletech can move forward.
  9. If you are selling, please post in the For Sale section. Additionally, you must post prices. Continued solicitation of sale items in the Toy section will result in thread deletion.
  10. No more need for this thread.
  11. Delta movie project AND a new series.
  12. Yes it's a movie. Macross Delta Gets Theatrical Anime Project Please. Please, be a redo of the series.
  13. Marco Turini has done some better work (?). And for sure Stanley Lau has done covers for much better subjects.
  14. Mod Warning Please refrain from posting any more scans of the comic(s). You can re-post the public previews but no more. We do not want or need to hear an earful from Titan Comics and Titan Publishing. And I'm sure many of us would like to avoid having seizures until we're much older and greyer.
  15. HyperX Cloud. My only beef with it is that it's a wee bit tight for my head.
