Sheryl has shrugged off the military fetish gear, and has decided to become a cowgirl, I see...

military fetish, cowgirl fetish, other fetishes, it's all good :D

Well so long as the story is good and there are more toys and variations (not only in colour) i'm all for it.

Of course I'd much rather see a long standing Macross TV series a la Gundam.

I like Annie Oakley Sheryl!

Annie's got your gun ;) Hmm, reverse cowgirl :p

As many VF as Gundams would be a nightmare...for the wallet, who recently is not happy with me, neither is the bank account, they already had some problems and now there is an explosion of Macross toys.

I guess one of the difference between gundam and macross is that gundam has too much of those unique hero units. Macross has just different color schemes.... Given the number of Valkyries I've seen, I think one gundam series has more units than the whole macross universe combined :lol:

Mobile Fighter G gundam, 40+ gundams, most of them completely retarded (still one of my favorite's of the franchise :lol: ).

Well Macross diffferentiates by having the primary unit type and then variations of that a la VF-25 variations. It makes more sense in real-life anyways.

Single one-off hero units are not that cost effective. So that's why Gundam doesn't make sense. Only time it ever made sense was Gundam Seed with the Strike and GAT-X variations. Similar frames and jsut variations on capability just like the VF-25.

Although other than cosmetic, what differences are there between the VF-25S and VF-25F and VF-25G? Well the G had the sniper rifle but does it ever say it has upgraded sensory equipment (to aid in those long range shots)? Same question for the S and F versions.

Yes, the VF-25G does have enhanced optics in the head.

* VF-25F: Normal version.

* VF-25G: Version with a sniper rifle as standard equipment. Head turret mono-eye adjusted for sniping.

* VF-25S: Version used by team leaders with enhancements to every system.

* RVF-25: Version with enhanced electronic warfare capabilities, equipped with large-sized radome and Aegis pack Custom AP-SF-01+. High precision sensor antennas and high-efficiency sensors built into head. Camera-eye is mounted on the outside of the head.

Though, it doesn't take away from your arguement. The head unit/turret is only one, small component. It's most likely interchangeable between different VF-25.

Expanding on your arguement - one of the concepts of Macross has always been mass production. In SDF:M, the Zentraedi are the ultimate expression of mass production. Perhaps, one could even go so far as to say that it was an allusion to the mechanization in Japanese society at the time (robots making cars, etc.) and the social costs of it (Zentraedi being emotionally stunted, etc.).

The official Macross F site has new information and images related to numbers 21 and 22 of the Macross Chronicle...

Number 22 has lots of information on the different gunpods used by the different valkyrie models up to the VF-25 and VF-27 from Macross Frontier.

Number 21 has a Macross II valkyrie on the cover... and an article on Silvie Gena. B))

This number also has lots of information regarding all the different full armor valkyries ever made, including Ozma's Full Armor VF-25...

"All this wait"...?

What did you expect, that they'd pop out a movie in three weeks?

Anyway, I don't know anything about the Stupid Frontier movie, but the Macross Frontier movie is scheduled for September, maybe.

I see what looks like a detailed missile count for the VF-11 Protect Armor. *passes out* :)

?

In #21? Nope. Though we do get the code names for all of the Full Armour VFs (except the VF-171EX, but does that really count as a full armour?!)

A sample of the upcoming Macross F Drama CD:

http://www.jvcmusic.co.jp/-/SampleStreamMe...sx?sid=MACROSSF

It's "Runner"... but maybe it should be renamed "Ruiner"?? Seriously, I don't know who this is (I'm guessing Michael and Klan), but even Gigil from M7 at least sounded interesting. This is some awful, awful monotonous garbage right here.

Well...if you're anything like me, this picture is enough to get you to buy it (censor bar added by me):

(Little too loli for my taste...but it's the thought that counts, right?)

Although that's somewhat set off by the fact that there's a kinda/sorta Nanase death scene on the first track (during a simulation, Luca reprograms his Ghosts to be Alto, Michael, and Nanase. Nanase gets shot down).

EDIT: Listening further on...Lord help us, there's "Aimo" sung by Ozma...I really didn't need to hear that... :wacko:

that's both adorable and creepy :blink:

OK, my favorite line so far...

Alto and Michael are rather annoyed that Luca named the Ghosts after them (and Nanase), so he comes up with an excuse that the names are acronyms. For example, Alto (A Ru To, ć‚¢ćƒ«ćƒˆ) means Active Routing Transpersonal (ć‚¢ć‚Æćƒˆć‚£ćƒ–ćƒ»ćƒ«ćƒ¼ćƒˆć‚£ćƒ³ć‚°ćƒ»ćƒˆćƒ©ćƒ³ć‚ŗćƒ‘ćƒ¼ć‚½ćƒŠćƒ«). Later, they ask the Ghosts themselves what the acronyms are for, and the results aren't quite as complimentary.

NaNaSe, on the other hand, stands for:

Nanase is sweet!

Nanase is the greatest!

Sexy, lovely, my angel Nasase!

Too bad she gets killed.

Nice pics, thanks krespy. Glad to see the character animation is improved for the movie.

Is anything known yet about if it's going to be a retelling of the series or a new story set after the end of the series?

The pictures and trailer speak for themselves that this would be a Macross Plus movie style of retelling as opposed to a DYRL version.

cannot see the trailer, me not have account...

macross plus style movie? but the OVA was not much longer than the film with only 4 episodes, how do you tell a 25 episode story in an average sized movie? It's probably not going to be told in a way too close to the TV series!
