Nexx Stalker Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Some screen grabs from Macross 7. Enjoy! Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Not exactly the VF-1's finest hour But...but...I was so looking forward to seeing these on the M3. Thanks for these screengrabs, Nexx Stalker. I've seen them before, but never with this much clarity. I never noticed the VF-1D with the red clown nose, smiley face and eyes. Quote
JB0 Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Not exactly the VF-1's finest hour I still can't believe Gamlin got Millia's Valk blown up. He should be executed for that. Quote
aerocombatpilot Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Now you can understand why I dislike Macross 7. Quote
shogun029 Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 The screenshot of the Monster MkII and the VF-1 together makes them look very similiar in size. I thought that the Monster towered over VF-1s. I am I wrong? Quote
Mr March Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 TheLoneWolf Hehehe, if I were a more devlish person... shogun029 Nope, you're right. Looks like they got the scale wrong. http://www.new-un-spacy.com/scalecharts/sizechart-1.gif Quote
taksraven Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Not exactly the VF-1's finest hour Or anybody else's for that matter. They look TERRIBLE!!! Thank god the artwork in frontier for any vintage mecha seems to be a little bit more respectful. Taksraven Quote
fifbeat Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Whats up with these scene? Is it some kind of gallery or something? Never seen Macross 7. Quote
stray Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 (edited) Whats up with these scene? Is it some kind of gallery or something? Never seen Macross 7. Long story short, Battle 7 detached from City 7 to fight the Protodevlin, but it was a trap, and City 7 got folded away. Battle 7 had the fleet's entire military presence, so Millia held a "Valkyrie Festival" prompting everyone to bring out all their personally owned (mostly relic) Valkyries and Destroids, with the alterior motive of being the only thing able to defend the city. edit: un-spoilered so haters can know more of the awesomeness that was M7.

Nexx Stalker Posted June 30, 2008 Author Posted June 30, 2008 (edited) He, I find them really amusing. Especially the Clown VF (as TheLoneWolf noted) and the "moulin rouge" one All the pics come from episode 15 of Macross 7 except the last two screengrabs, which are taken from Fleet of the strongest women and Episode 11. Also, it seems the majority of the VF (the ones presented here are all the ones depicted in the episode, bar none) are are mainly 1J. The idea of destroids converted to civilian use resurfaced in Frontier. Edited June 30, 2008 by Nexx Stalker Quote
dreamweaver13 Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I still can't believe Gamlin got Millia's Valk blown up. He should be executed for that. hehe. QFT. thank god the original skull1 was nowhere in sight. Quote
d3v Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Well, he got a worse fate if some pieces of art are to believed. He got her as his mother in law . Quote

Vinnie Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 (edited) What. Battroid Carnival (or whatever it was) was great! I especially loved when those crazy old guys got their monster up and running and took a out a building with the big guns. And hearing "Riding in your valkyrie" as a BGM track. Say what you will about Macross 7, but this was an awesome tribute episode at the time. Edited July 1, 2008 by Vinnie Quote
Gubaba Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Consider yourself fortunate that you have not! HELL YEAH! Who needs Max flying around in a VF-22, acting like he's some kind of genius? And more information about the Protoculture and the Supervision Army? Pfft, who cares? The VF-17? LAAAAME! And, like, EVERY mecha show out there is done from the point of view of a rock band...why couldn't they do something original, like make it more military? You see barely any robot shows that feature the military as main characters! Sure, Macross 7 wasn't the series most of us wanted to to be, but to write it off so completely is just wrong. Quote

Ahem, I believe it was Max and Millia flying around in colour coordinated VF-22s! Quote
