Which is why I put the question is quotes. There was a lot of confusion at Macrossworld and elsewhere at that time, which has since been ironed out.

I'm glad they're adding in these little touches and improving some of the less stellar stuff...(Pity they didn't do it with the original series).
D.D. Ivanov Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 (edited) I've noticed that whenever Kawamori DOESN'T work on an Armored Core game, the mechs end up being bland. For instance... In AC1, the scariest looking thing was the absurdly fast-moving Devastator. Which you could sit on top of and slam with the KARASAWA rifle. In Last Raven, we got cheap Pulverizers which seem to enjoy suicide runs on you when you destroy them.(I beat the bipedal one in the city without taking any major hits, and just before it blows up, it slams into my AC's upper core, and I lost the head unit). In AC4, we got giant four-legged Kojima cannons and a tunneler robot thing. Now, compare that with Stinger's Vixen(pwn) and Phantasma from PP, Nineball Seraph from MoA, weird flying giant MT from 3, IBIS from SL, "???" Nineball-esque mech from Nexus, and the arm forts(especially Answerer and Spirit of Mother Will) from For Answer. Edited February 1, 2009 by D.D. Ivanov

Maybe they are re-animating all these bits because they will be used in the movie?? While that is a good thing for the blu-ray/dvd, it doesn't bode well for the movie...
DarkReaper Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Could be that there will be more focus on pixey squadron if Klan is indeed going to be a major character in the movie.
UN Spacy Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 It's a damn shame that Raramia and Nene got NO character development. This is exactly why I don't like a lot of Frontier's secondary cast. What a waste of Pixie Squadron.
MisaForever Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Gubaba said: An added scene? Wow. They must've listened to everyone's confusion..."Wait...was Raramia the tall pink-haired one or the pissed-off looking boyish one?" I was never confused about that. You just had to pay attention.
VFTF1 Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 MisaForever said: I was never confused about that. You just had to pay attention. I think people had trouble paying attention to the members of Pixie Squadron, since they kept staring at the two most prominent commanding officers of Pixie Squadron. Pete
Letigre Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 You mean the squadron's "big guns".. Gubaba said: Yes, I know. Which is why I put the question is quotes. Sorry, I missed that part.

DarkReaper Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 In addition to my previous post. That new depiction of Raramia is miles better than anything we have ever seen of her before, and there are some significant stylistic changes done to her face. It might indeed be an example of the new character designs for the movie.

GGemini Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Just got the Macross Frontier Official Fan Book by Gakken... haven't been able to check it out completely (I'm @ work) but I noticed it has many illustrations that have appeared before in magazines (sans text) and... finally a bit of mecha line art, mainly cockpits and an explanation of how the EX fits inside. Apparently there'll be a "Macross All Song" book being released in March.

Still waiting for the definitive Frontier mecha lineart book and complete Frontier BGM collection CD. Graham

Hopefully this will be fixed with the movie which promises to expand more on Klan ...and indirectly pixie squadron.

VFTF1 Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Quote Looks like another singing contest. I wish the internet would hurry up and progress to the point where we could have inter-active singing contests on Macross world. What with song being such an important element of Macross, it would be cool to have a "Listen to My Song!" thread where we could just stream or download members singing. Pete

Pete Heh Pete, that honestly has to be one of the worst ideas I've ever read. I can think of nothing worse than having to listen to fat, sweaty fanboys sing badly out of tune karaoke renditions of Totsugeki Love Heart. My ears are already bleeding just at the thought. Graham

What about a skinny, sexy fangirls singing "Zero-G Love" while showering, I bet most member will approved it. And like Pete said, by that time the singing contest is held, he would disguise himself in Minmay avatar or Basara avatar. I wish MW will held a contest for members and giving some them chance of winning MF merchandises.
