This sounds great. I can't wait till you're finished.

Wow. This was a tough choice. I had trouble choosing between Grace and Kaifun. I'd have to say Lynn Kaifun is the worst manager in Macross history. He didn't fit into sdf-1's story very well. He was an alcoholic obnoxious jerk and treated Minmay like crap. He didn't do much for Minmay career other than costarring in a movie with her. In fact he seemed to hinder her. On top of that I got really sick of him using Minmay to spew his anti-war nonsense. Ok we get it. War is bad. He'd even berate soldiers for saving Minmay and himself from invading/rebelling Zentradi. So, Yeah. Worst Manager in history and overall King of the Dumbasses. I absolutely hate Grace, but at least she fits into Frontier's plot.

While I hope they do make a second season (more Macross is always good) , I'd say it depends on how well they resolve the storyline and whether there's any loose ends to tie up.

That looks fantastic. Great job.

Hmm... Most erotic thing. I'd say other than the animation, story line and the music. Any scene with the Big Mac and quarter pounder, mmm... giant mecha porn.

1/48 = 1 VF-1S Hikaru. Trying to decide what I should get next.

Ok. I grew up on Robotech and I absolutely hate the music. I honestly don't understand how anybody can like it. The music in Macross is so much better. There's no comparison.

That's cool. Which Regult did you get? Revoltech, Matchbox or something else?

I'd say that I watch Macross the feeling I get overall is the vibe. *Macross T.V. series: I get Nostalgic although I think some parts are cheesy. *Macross: DYRL?: My favorite. I love the final battle with Minmay singing. Hikaru kicking Boddole Zer's ass with Minmay superimposed over the background is Iconic. *Flash Back 2012. Boring. *Macross II: Lovers, Again: Didn't like it. However I did like how the Marduk countered the Minmay Defense with their own songs. The death song was especially twisted. Macross Plus: Creepy. Macross 7: I watched about three episodes.Didn't care for it. Macross Zero: MY second favorite. I always get chills when the Bird Man's parts re-attach, The music cues up and it unfolds. The final battle between the Bird Man, U.N. and Anti U.N forces is fantastic. Macross Frontier: I like it so far. May become another one of my favorites.

Looks like the trailer was only test footage and doesn't have a script yet. It's scheduled for a Summer 2010 release. John Lasseter is the Chief Creative Officer and it sounds like Steve Lisberger is no longer involved. Eddie Kitsis & Adam Horowitz are writing the script. See here for more info.

Just wanted to say hi to my fellow New Yorkers and Macross fans.

I agree The promo is getting a lot of good reception. Hopefully they continue and start production on TR2N. Otherwise I'll be be very disappointed with Disney for teasing us like this.

The toys from the original movie were pretty horrendous actually. That's probably why you never saw them. In my opinion the only good Tron toys were the lightcycles. With that being said I found some links with pictures of Tron toys. Big Bad Toy store & Tron Sector

It's funny. I was fiddling with my VF-1S Hikaru and once I got the the chair/backpack support set right it became very secure. I tipped it backwards and the fast packs stayed in place. I didn't even have to glue anything. This is what it should look like when you have the neck piece/back pack support set right.

I voted Hikaru. In the TV series you see him start off as a civilian stunt pilot that's able to pull off some fancy maneuvers. When he joins the military you see that he's kind of a screw up and is prone to disobey (usually to do something heroic) orders. After Roy dies Hikaru becomes more professional and shows some great leadership. He's also been decorated ( (Titanium Medal of valor) and promoted several times in a relatively short amount of time. In DYRL He seems to be a better combat pilot (not as good as Max, but still good) and is very heroic. Plus he kicks ass in his Strike VF-1S. Hikaru was hospitalized because Misa screwed up. She wasn't paying attention and executed a Daedalus attack while Hikaru was in it's direct line of fire. I totally agree.
