  1. I'm kinda sad we can't handwave it away with "because overtech" like so many other mechanical realities. It's just such an odd place for reality to make it's presence known.
  2. I don't thonk they want to do Macross, is the thing. Thry want to do their own thing, then slap the brand on it to get some more sales. Mospeada is just more like Hollywood than Macross. The similarities will be coincidentaL.
  3. I do not deny this train of thought.
  4. That'd be awesome. And if they don't include hovertanks, they missed out. But I don't think they'll actively be trying to adapt MOSPEADA, I think they'll THINK they're adapting Macross and accidentally turn it into MOSPEADA somehow.
  5. At this point I think the worst thing is they'll try to shoehorn in Macross references to prove they were "doing it right", so instead of a good MOSPEADAish, we'll get the bastard child of Macross and MOSPEADA.
  6. Why Sony wants it: They don't have rights to Transformers. This will certainly be different enough to avoid the Macross legal issues. Even if there were no issues, it would be different enough to avoid them. I don't think they'll even go to space. My hypothetical outline: Aliens invade Earth. Humans steal alien technology, reverse-engineer it. Robot jets that don't look like they should fly kill all the aliens. A single token alien defects to the humans so they can pretend they didn't totally ignore the original. Hmm... actually, adapting MOSPEADA would be GREAT for Hollywood.
  7. You type really well for a newborn.
  8. It's the hair. How can the embodiment of greed NOT have gold hair?
  9. Debatably. There's an argument to be made that atmosphere is explicitly part of a planet.But ejection inside a pressurized space ship behaves as if it were In atmosphere, so it's a moot point.
  10. But Transformers was awful.
  11. Oh, you're saying he's a Spacetrooper!
  12. I think it's probably a bad sign. If the fan runs faster than other fans, that'd be a good reason, but I'd be inclined to replace it. But as for the search... try alternate approaches. Search for "hot electric motor" or something.
  13. Micheal Bay's Transformers raped my childhood, destroyed my life, and then, when I had nothing left to give, they decapitated my body!
  14. I just want to note that Space Brick carrying a Bomb Pop sword is canon for me.
  15. He could be reprising his role as Hercules, son of Zeus. THAT would be an interesting zombie movie.
  16. They can use a transforming jetplane, they can probably even CALL it a Valkyrie(though they'd want to call it a Veritechâ„¢), they just can't use any of the canon Macross designs(not that it stopped the Robotech comic books). And, well... Hollywood was never going to use a canon Macross design anyways. If they use something that looks like it could actually fly, I'll be surprised enough.
  17. So you're saying Char should fly a red AT-AT? ... I'd actually pay good money to see that. That's a pretty awesome movie. The video game detailing on the instrument panels were a particularly nice touch.
  18. That's awesome. And the little Noise accessory is a nice touch. ... I think they had fun with that whole line. Chris and Tsubasa both have a "coughing up blood" face that seems just a tad out of place on a toy with those proportions. Hibiki gets a berserker face that aaaactually kinda creeps me out. Chris renders best in Nendoroid, though. (and I'm sure it annoys her)
  19. This. Hell, given their sterling record adapting AMERICAN franchises.
  20. Needs more photovoltaic light&sound!
  21. Far as I know, it never got a Windows port.
  22. Intentionally. Centauri was rewritten after they got Robert Preston to make it more like his role in Music Man.
  23. But you need a separate memcard to do it with a Vita, or a willingness to reformat the existing one.
