You mean 1/48 Monster

You think I don't know this? In Robotech, however, her name is ALWAYS Minmei. In Macross, at least half the time, she's Minmay. Also, I know Reba West is her Non-union alias. Did you know Dan Woren (Roy Fokker) was Dan Warner for non-union purposes?

Well... Kamjin and Lap Lamiz were making culture of their own, if you ask me

And, on that note, I don't like the leathery SMS jackets. I like the dull one I saw somewhere.

March: Well, yeah, but how many times (Oustide of Frontier...) out of 10 are reaction warheads used? In every, single combat in Gundam, Evangelion, and the like, a God Mech is used. Hobbes: I wasn't going by SciFi. Maybe "NO" is the wrong word at this time, but, in comparison with conventional firearms of the same caliber, recoil is vastly reduced... And, on that note, that was the page I read the no recoil thing a few months back. (The wikipedia page, right?) Anime: Well, my thinking behind limiting stealth is that the OMNI pack is made of different materials than the fighter itself, which uses materials that facilitate stealth. Also, the OMNI pack is likely to disrupt the Stealth profile of the plane. From there, giving the barrier an overload, at least, would make it a more grounded valk, overall... Jacs: Again, man, not rippin. Just giving advice... Wish that kid with the WraithVerge was as accepting of friendly advice as you. Also, I'm kinda confused about the barrier. Is it like an Omni-directional barrier (Surrounds the entire craft in a bubble) or a disc that stops hits at that particular area?

That would own. VF-0D in blue and in VF-0A colors... *Needs a drool emoticon*

In Jacs' defense, I believe the number is the caliber of the gun. ROV-20 was used several times throughout the Macross universe, so I think it's the caliber, and not a gun type. But, past that... Ok, first off, science lesson: Railguns use magnetic propulsion to fire a projectile at high speed. The advantages of this system are extremely high range, high penetration power, and no recoil. However, a railgun requires a lot of electricity to run, and can only fire ferrous projectiles. In other words, brass bullets ain't gonna work. You'll have to make the thing out of iron, which has its own problems, mostly in expense. Also, they're not suited for high rates of fire. While the idea of a railgunpod is a solid one, it'd have to be an enormously high caliber sniper rifle. No automatic gunpod for you. GRENADE LAUNCHER? What is this, Tiamat's Hugeass?* You can't get a grenade launcher on that thing, and Quantum Beam weapons are just that. Beam weapons. They fire a continuous beam of energy at a target for a period of time. It can be short or long, but it can't be a grenade. You needn't a sniper scope. The head unit can detect visually sufficiently enough on its own. In fact, the VF-25G had a specialized head sensor for this. No scope. However, the VF-25F can use it. The pod has no scope, but the 25F's sensor is sensitive enough to zoom in rather far. 2 miles is nothing in an air combat, and from my guesses, a space combat, either. In MF25, we see a large furball in space. There is a HUGE expanse between the 2 opposing NMCs. Each NMC is 1 mile long (Not quite so big in attack mode, but...). Then, the Macross Quarter hit it at that range with its Macross Cannon. So, 2 miles is nothing in space combat. Shipboard visual sensors are likely less powerful than fighter-borne ones (A fighter needs it, but the ship doesn't), and the target was hit at at least 20 miles distance. So, I would assume a scope isn't necessary. This isn't to mention that a round will continue infinitely through space until it impacts something or is caught in a gravity well. Another balance issue: The Omni Striker system. Ok, lemme break it down. You get one, that's ONE, special capability at a time. You can have the stealth, but the Omni Striker disables it. With the Omni Striker, the barrier is unstable and drains power quickly, limiting it to times when one is under a lot of fire, and lasting just long enough to get away. (45-75 seconds sounds fair) I agree with Anime. Use a GU-15, 17, or Quantum Beam Gun, and stop it with the custom gun here. The VF's systems are powerful enough, and are quite unique. Let THAT be the focus on this so-far wonderful custom. The gunpod's not as important. The VX-26 Aegis Striker is a capable VF, and it has many unique features. I like all of them. I think the gunpod's a bit much, and the overall power of the thing is crazy, but I like it. I'm not ripping on you, or anything, but... God mechs are frowned upon in the Macross community? *A mod for Halo: Custom Edition for the PC. The standard assault rifle that acts as a player's default spawn weapon had an RPG launcher on it, taking the place of grenades.

Well... Maybe Macronized Zentraedi have the genetic ability to defy scale...

"Dual M6Cs coz I roll like John Woo, sprayin hot lead, have you screamin' 'What? Who?'"

Well over $300, but it'd be worth it for me...

Well... The point stands... It was mostly UN Military people... And I was under the impression that the UNSpacy forces in orbit were wiped out by the zentraedi, and Mars was abandoned years ago. Dammit, Gubaba! The sub I watched spelt it Gloval. Do you spell Britai "Vritwahl"? Is Kamjin "Qamzin"? At least V and B are iffy in Japanese...

No, Minmei and Minmay are different people. The former's just not very into songs that don't suck, and can't sing to save her life... Not to mention she only knows 2 songs, and they're both from the 50s... Singers must suck on the SDF-1... I think I'll stay in the Macross... And Rebecca Forstadt's no hack, Reba West is

Well... Never mind then. I was told that he didn't ever revisit Hikaru because his close friend that voiced him died... Never heard when, never got confirmation. ... Time to check my sources again...

But a 12-meter Zentraedi could fit, sitting down... How would you explan why they aren't 25 feet tall? That's HALF of a VF-1, which is the smallest of the VFs. (Don't count any special variants that could disprove that. The MAXL is still a VF-11...) I just remembered that episode... Those monsters were a bit small... Lap Lamiz was a bit big... So, what does that do to not further confuse me? Negatively act. That's what... Why'dja have to confuse me? I don't consider the Glaug to be much of an issue, since it has an elongated cockpit, meaning the seat can be lower to the floor, pushing his legs futher into the "nose" of the walker, and his torso futher back, into the taller section. It's possible, though I've never cared much for Kamjin...

Ah... So it was a misunderstanding. Well that is passive stealth... Gundam Seed: Omni: The army of one of the factions (This comes into play... NOW!) Striker: The name of a weapons pack for the main character's gundam, similar to a FAST, Strike, or Armor pack Strike: The name of the Main Character's gundam Aegis: The name of the secondary antagonist (And later, secondary protagonist)'s gundam ^ | That's how I saw it. I knew the Omni thing was likely the omni-directional barrier, but I had to put that as an extra reason I coulda referenced it...

Hm... I'm thinking I should get to work on getting together a good Wilder cosplay together for A-kon... That... Would own... Better yet, the zentraedi with the nosebleed on Gallia IV... Or that one dude making fun of Alto in the 171EX....

It's my guess that Jacs likes Gundam Seed Not bad. Can't wait for some art. Got one thing to say: It doesn't sound passive, in that an effort must be made by the valk to camouflage it. If it simply ties into the ECA system, then it's borderline for me, but it sounds like a cool system. Makes me think of metamaterials... GO VISUAL CAMOUFLAGE!

No, Fokker was in Robotech. That's pronounced Folker. Focker, in Macross, is pronounced Fock (rhymes with.. )-er. Like "Meet the Fockers". And I know one convert. I can't remember her name for the life of me, but she named her daughter, Miriya. That's Robotech. Last year, at a Robotech (I believe) con, Miriya cosplayed Ranka, and sang Aimo... Best 6-year-old singer I've heard

Here's my observation: Random Zentraedi soldier Hikaru had at gunpoint when he was in the warship (The explosions that went by during the Daedelus attack killed him) was the same height (Almost exactly) as his 1J. If this is the case, Zentraedi favor a 12-13 meter height mark. This places them at the 45-foot mark, right next to the VF-1, which is what they were going for, right? Moving from there, Exedor seems to be a short Zent, who would probably fit at the 5:1 mark with a human. On the same token, Britai and Bodolza were larger, more at a 55-60 foot mark... In other words: a few inches on a human is a few meters on a zentraedi...

And I'm under the impression that this is linked to the death of Hikaru's seiyuu, who had been Kawamori's close friend. I know that's why Hikaru's never shown up again, but is that also the reason he didn't want a sequel Macross?

That is, considering he knows it exists...
