Robotech Purist Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 ROBOTECH is gaining steam in North America MACROSS is loosong steam in Japan. Which ship would you rather be on????? (not a flame topic, but rather a discussion on bottom line facts.)
Druna Skass Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 (edited) (not a flame topic, but rather a discussion on bottom line facts.) Speaking of facts, could you provide some... Edited September 16, 2003 by Druna Skass
JB0 Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 The one with a coherent story. You lose. And I believe your evaluation to be somewhat misguided.
Knight26 Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 Normally I am not one to feed the trolls, but where are you getting your "facts?"
Phyrox Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 I actually don't see much evidence of Macross loosing steam recently...quite the opposite: Yamato 1/60 Yamato 1/48 Bandai re-releases Hasegawa 1/72 Macross Zero Sega Macross game (development) Macross DVD quite a few products are keeping Macross very much alive in Japan it seems. Robotech has its stuff as well, and until relatively recently I think I might have agreed...but as it is now I think it would be fairly hard to convincingly argue that Macross is on the "decline." I would agree that Robotech has been building steam recently.
imode Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 (edited) Feed feed feed! Robotech is a 20 year old show with absolutely nothing new, save for a few crappy toys and video games that are cropping out as of recent. It's also has a long drawn out story with many plot holes. Like Dana Sterling? How did she become blonde? It also incorporated the uninspired mecha designs of Southern Cross. (/me ducks! ) Macross is a 20 year old concept with three OVA series, two television series, and two movies under its belt and a bevy of fine products and fresh new designs from the original creator. Although, this can really be summed up in one two quick sentence. Macross has the VF-17, 19 and 22. Robotech doesn't. Edited September 16, 2003 by imode
SuperOstrich Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 RP, given your handle I can pretty much guess why you are here. However, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. This type of topic is flame-bait. Please contribute to the boards without these types of posts. EDIT: Nevermind. I read his other post in the conventions forum. His motives are clear.
