Hmm, it's even roughly the same length as the sentinels....

As far as I know, the only home release was a UK VHS release.

Wow, they actually used one of my questions....what a crazy time we live in!

I agree that Char was selfish, but not to the extend of considering peoples lives to be playthings. While his methods were at times highly questionable, his intentions I don't feel were all that bad. He wasn't simply a power hungry lunatic, he was a powerful lunatic with a purpose. I don't believe he thought he had a chance against Amuro at all, I think he fully intended to die, becoming a martyr, and doing what he believed would be saving the planet, and pushing humanity to stay in space & continue to evolve.

Do you honestly believe that if Manga still had the rights they would have waited this long to release it?

As far as money goes, you won't be charged until the first volume ships in march. Though if worse comes to worse, there will be individual retail releases, and a full box release after everything is out. This is just a chance to get the individual's as they come out, and the last vol will ship with a box.

Considering ADV will only release 4 episodes a volume and it'll take about 4 months or so before another volume is released, your better off with AnimEgo, they're done, but discontinued selling the product. But that doesn't mean you can't find the DVD's. I don't like the subbing font AnimEgo uses, but its readable, its bold, and its not done in a color that blends in with anything in the background like some groups who have to change a letter or an entire word so it doesn't get blended in with the animation. Plus, you might save yourself more money getting AnimEgo's than ADV's...no doubt because ADV will have Japanese and English subs, it'll be between 14.99-29.99 pending where you go (just stay away from suncoast). 348965[/snapback] Actually, it'll be 6 episodes on the first volume, and 5 episodes on each subsequent volume (for a total of 7), and average release schedule is every 2 months (sometimes sooner).

Actually, I felt exactly the opposite about Char. By CCA, it looked more to me like he wanted Amuro to kill him. And while Char never gave a care for Newtypes or Zeon, he did care for, and continued to right up to the end, humanity. He wasn't trying to drop Axis on Earth for revenge or for fun, he was just trying to stop humanity from overruning themselves & the planet.

Changing names doesn't always help. I ran into the guy who dubbed Spike in Cowboy Bebop (and Heartbreak 1 in Ace Combat 5) at a supermarket checkout. Someone in line commented on what he had, he replied to them, and I immediately recognized his voice. Funniest thing was that he said he's never been recognized before.

2nd week of January.

True Tony Oliver was very different from Hikaru, unfortunately, he wasn't very different from a super-hammified Luke Skywalker. I'm so far out of the dub loop, I have no idea who any of those people (except Tiffany Grant) are.

Asuka!

Disc 1 + & empty box that will hold 6 additional DVD's when released. Prices vary by online shops, but I think average is $30-35.

Considering the Long Distance Colonization fleets were self sustaining, there shouldn't be worry about running out of supplies

Looking at ADV's Macross logo more, I can't help but think they may be prepping for a Zero release. If it does well, I don't doubt they'll go all out trying to woo Big West into giving up the rights.

Here's a tip, next time you play it, start fresh, go into the settings, and enable the "forward" view option, that'll make things significantly easier. As it was, it's the best Macross game up until the PS2 game came out, they were just a bit ambitious with the 360 degree attack style (which the forward view fixes). And no, it's not a civil war, it's as I explained above. The choice you have to make in the game is whether to join or fight Gilliam, if you fight him you stick with currupt U.N. Spacy (lose), if you join him you go on to take out the coorperation corrupting things.

I never liked the blurry wire frame look of the covers. Having seen the Prototype covers which were full color versions of the art with white instead of black backdrops, those would have been much preferable.

It'd be easy, they could cast Ben Afleck & Leonardo DeCaprio as star-crossed shipmates!

I can't help but wonder, do you think these sets would be going for more had the cover art been better?

Well he is old, maybe the only way he could get up the strength was to take pudding into the booth with him....

ADV had disc productoin problems with their releases around 2002-2003, for some reason many of those disc's are going bad. So far, all disc's after that seem to be ok.

The site is cool, but I'm still waiting for the intro flash to finish "BAFFERING"

i'm definately picking it up. While my AnimEigo disc's have yet to show any problems, that whole deal with the disc cracking has made me warry of playing them. A back-up version is definately preferable. The dub is a curiousity, but only because Mari is there, and I'm already this deep into Macross fandom, one more box set won't hurt. Considering the price, it's no worse than picking up multiple 1/48's, sure they have different heads & colors, but they're still VF-1's.

Never bothered with never ending tomorrow, but if you enjoy the Vs engine, then you'll enjoy this. And while I'd love more U.C. as well, this engine could easily go all the way up through Victory (enabling some nice melee's with the V2's light wings, & chargable assault cannon would have been great). Maybe the next game...

Macross is just doomed to have ass for art in the U.S. Hell, look at our MP movie edition. Though that image seriously needs to be mirrored to the proper direction, there's no reason such a stupid mistake should have been made. Will the box or cover art be fixed before release? Hell no. If it's out at Amazon, then it's also about to hit print ad's, and when have you ever seen ADV change their covers once releasing them to the public? The best we can hope for are reversable covers, which isn't too likely either. As for the box, I was hoping for something finally more character driven, but that appears to have gone out the window too.
