The VF-11 served as the main UNS fighter from 2030 through the 2040s and into the 2050s. (M+ thru M7) http://www.anime.net/macross/mecha/united_...vf11/index.html AKA the great unanimated void. It's the main jet during Macross Plus, but as Plus revolves around Project Supernova, you don't get to see much of the 11.

GASP! Max is a clone that's why he looks so young for a almost 60 yr old person! Kidding. Best serious guess is that overtechnology offered major medical advancements as well as weaponry and mecha. What they want is irrelevant if the government mandates they HAVE to submit to cloning. Survival outside of the cities is a questionable prospect at best, even with the reclamation project going on. I'd give my sample and get on with life. Same genetic material, not same person. Environment shapes appearances to some degree, and personality to a great degree. And how does the moral dilemma of cloning compare to the moral dilemma of letting humanity die out? Morals are all relative, and this one wasn't a debate people could afford to have.

I'm busy trying to decide whether authentic "science ninja team" or completely screwed up "neutrino bomb" strikes me as cheesier.

Not me. I dream in 1:2. Yes, the valk in my dreams is bigger than the real thing. And people will bitch endlessly about how the tail-fins are at a marginally diffrent angle.

Is this why, IIRC, none survived? It seems to me that that strategy would be at a great disadvantage, and unnecessarily. Not only that, but it doesn't seem to have any anti-aircraft/fighter weapons, which would leave it more or less a sitting duck against that sort of attack. Overall, I like the look of it, but the description doesn't make it sound very functional or effective to me. Little more than a space anti-capital ship artillery piece. Oh, how far they have come I think its more that none or few survived because there were nearly 5 million Zjentohlauedy warships firing at the Earth and the destroyers were in front of the target. ^^; Good point I'm sure there wasn't much they could do with the technology of that era (or any era, I suppose) to enable their small numbers to take on 5 million... Well, the captain of one could've gone super-saiyan and jumped out the airlock and punched Bodolzaa in the face, but other than that... Okay, ending the idiocy...

I'll buy one... While they're at it, I belive there's a lot of VF-4 fans here too... And Stampeed Valks, and Thunderhummers, and blah, blah, blah... Public recognition factor zero. Don't forget the Macross. And all in glorious 1/48.

IF I recall, Pioneer has denied thopse rumors, saying somethinbg to the effect of "if we had them, you'd know".

The Macross TV series was released state-side under license from Harmony Gold. As for the rest... To summarize, the current prevalent theory is that Harmony Gold ONLY has rights to the original TV show, and they're bluffing on the rest of it.

It was called recation weaponry. Actually, it DOES produce radiation. This is mentioned in the first episode, I believe, when the ARMDs launch reaction warheads at the Zentradi ships. The aliens subsequently "sneak" down to Earth, because the radiation from the ARMD strike has made the Macross' sensors essentially useless in that area, which happens to be where the aliens are coming, so they get closer than they should before detection.

She also shared at least ONE interest. It wasn't just her physical aspects that caught Max's eye, her arcade loot did it too. I'm telling you, if the Macross 7 had an arcade, their relationship would've been going a lot smoother.

Thanks for the heads up No prob, really.

NO! MACROSS IS POOPY! ONLY POKEMON IS WORTH WATCHING!

but they are still alive in the movie. They died afterwards. Extincition doesn't just happen overnight. Except in geological terms. Takes several years. LIES! IT'S NOT TRUE! I WON'T BELIEVE IT!

Well, aside from the official specs, one can always make an estimate based on the animated width of the gun relative to the mech. Which allegedly gives you a vastly diffrent caliber for mobile suits than the official specs. sheesh and I thought I was a big nerd Hey, at least I haven't actually figured it out yet. Much less figured out how much damage the Death Star did to Endor when it blew up(yes, someone actually did that. Their conclusion: ewoks are dead).

BLASPHEMY! ... Man, the fun I had with mine way back in the day. I even managed to not lose the gun barrel before the robot broke.

Whether Shockwave is cool or lame can be answered by the following question: Does he fold into a gun? I swear, if they neutered the great and mighty purple one out of political correctness... This isn't another Megatron that they can do with as they please. This is SHOCKWAVE.

Why bother when I have an emulator that almost works right. Dropping a bomb > replaying the level a dozen times.

Assuming they're built to the same level of accuracy, no. A Legioss is officially a good bit SMALLER than a VF-1. VF-1 fighter: 14.23 meters long. VF-1 battroid: 12.68 meters tall. Legioss armo-fighter: 10.25 meters long. Legioss armo-soldier: 8.75 meters tall. And for repetition's sake... The original RX-78 Gundam: 18.5 meters tall. Sources: http://macross.anime.net/ http://members.optusnet.com.au/~cyc01/index.htm http://www.mahq.net/ (I could've saved myself some typing had I thought of that from the start). Assuming we keep it to one model...VF-1: Missiles, multi-mode for maximum versatility, smaller target. RX-78: Shield, melee weaponry for in-close combat.

Realistically, neither an alpha, a valkyrie, nor a gundam have any business fighting anything.

After studying all the photos on NASA's site and in this thread in great detail, I believe I've discovered the true problem, and I'm sure everyone will agree. Spirit was buried under an endless swarm of Photoshop CDs.

Are you refering to the black screen after you finish the game? Also, how does VF-X2 play on PSXeven compared to ePSXe? Is there a noticable difference in anything (graphics, sound, etc.)? No. In DYRL(not VFX2), when you die, the continue screen automatically hit the button before hte countdown even appeared. I wanted to hear the music. This was fixed in the latest version, but I'd already run through the game at that point. And the boss in the Kakizaki dies level just doesn't come out in ePSXe, and has to be coaxed out in PSXeven. As I said already. VFX2 looks and sounds exactly the same on any emulator that uses plugins. Remember, the final rendering is based on the plugin, not the emulator. I saw no major glitches in PSXeven, though I quit playing after a while because I wans't having much fun.

That's what missiles are for. 'Sides, the laser has some good cutting power.
