  1. Luke didn't have a robot body double making out with his girlfriend while he was saving the galaxy.
  2. Hey, if the end result is as hilarious as Robotech x Voltron, I have NO problem with that.
  3. I think you just answered your own question.
  4. I went by the local Wal-Mart earlier, figured I may as well check toys. Didn't expect much, but what I found was... One peg of movie Hound. Nothing else. This is why I quit looking for plastic robots. I'm happy to just wait for you guys to post pics. FAR less frustrating that way.
  5. No, they showed 'em loading the raspberry jelly jars intd the Valkyries in Macross: New Generation!
  6. Canonically, I think the VFs can fuse raspberry...
  7. Oh, the -25 DOES do something with heat? That's awesome!
  8. Well, the heat has to go SOMEWHERE. And in the vacuum of space, there's few places that it can be thrown without lighting yourself up like a box of flares. Heck, even if just life support will still light you up. As Mr March noted, Macross is one of the few universes with a built-in excuse for where it would go, but they make no effort to explore this.
  9. As far as visible stealth on spacecraft goes... it doesn't really help a lot either way, because you're still blazing a 50-foot neon "I AM HERE" sign in the infrared. Max and Millia kinda throws a wrench in the targeting by head module theory, as Max was flying a 1A at the time. It's debatable if Kamjin meant Max, Roy, or even Hikaru. The two wound up going toe-to-toe an awful lot, and Hikaru always came out on top somehow. Or, indeed, if he meant anyone. He may've just been trying to save face and piss Millia off. Blame the hidden ace and challenge her pride in one shot. ... I have a lot of trouble reading Kamjin, really.
  10. Including zentradi-sized bottle opener? Or maybe a cigarette lighter...
  11. You must've forgot which forum this is.
  12. I want to emphasize I used hundred-fold as an example for illustrative purposes. I've got no idea what the actual difference is.
  13. Oh,m thank Macek! I was worried I wouldn't be able to buy out-of-print ADV disks anymore, or that I'd have to pay bargin-bin prices for Shadow Chronicles!
  14. If they actually make a Rainbow Brite movie, I will be pleased ENTIRELY out of proportion to what they're doing.
  15. 'S okay, we're all glad to see it again.
  16. Eventually we'll bump this thread enough that when news actually DOES arrive, people will ignore the thread because they think it's just been bumped again.

    SUPER ROBOT WARS

    Why not Alpha?!?!
  18. Some kind soul once re-uploaded the Lost Two Years summary as a board attachment, so it's downloadable here. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=28565&p=699893 But it IS a summary. It's more a terse collection of facts than an actual narrative tale.
  19. That's what I said. I'd like the artbook. Moreso now that it's hit the "hardcover artbook" stretch goal, but I'm not sure. I do like that the signed boxes are "Not a limited tier, because IGA positively dares the world to wear out his signing hand." 'Tis a dare he will regret, I'm sure.
  20. Every time I see this thread I think it's a joke thread. And every time I click it and am reminded this is a real thing that is actually happening.
  21. Remember,these real-world lasers are damaging real-world hardware made of real-world alloys and driven by real-world engines with real-world weight limits. Also, missiles are very lightly armored next to the planes that fire them. Once you up the thrust a hundred-fold, putting more armor on everything becomes feasable. Even moreso when you ALSO have materials that are a hundred-fold more durable than anything we have now for the same weight. I think it's obvious why something that's super-powerful for the real world could kinda suck in Macross.
  22. I just felt the underwater sequence was really weird for a canonically air-breathing mech. I do admit that I forgot about the backpack rockets being, well, rockets, and thus anaerobic.
