I like how they not only came up with a new alternate head turret, but also revised the transformation (the parts that become the chest/upper legs). The way the gun pod is "held" in fighter—not to mention loading a missile on top of it—is intriguing. I'm wondering how available (or rare) this doujinshi is. It is current and in stock in most Dojin stores, also, Vol 11 is out now Edited April 14, 2021 by Bariaburu Faita Quote
jvmacross Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Easily avaiable via Mandarake..... https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1158662998&ref=list&keyword=マクロス&lang=en Very cool doujin with some cool customs...it is interesting seeing Evolution Toys' VF-2SS used prominently in this issue....a couple of cool ET VF-2SS customs can be found in this issue.... These doujins are really nice.....looking forward to more Macross issues! Quote

jvmacross Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Good to know they are still busy......unfortunately, not interested in anything other than Macross...hope they can move onto the Destroids and Enemy Mecha, but may not be their thing Quote

Ships are kind of their thing, so I'd expect they're probably more or less done with Macross. Quote
jvmacross Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 yeah...probably....but then again MasterFile put out how many books on the VF-1? LOL Quote
Bariaburu Faita Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 The last time I talked to Mr. Fuso of FANKY企画 was quite some time ago before the COVID stuff. But I specifically asked him if he would be willing to write another Macross Ships dojin featuring other races ships like Meltran or Protoculture. He said he didn't consider the Meltran ships to be real, and had already started work on LOGH book. Quote
jvmacross Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Meltran ships are not real? Or does he mean they are equivalent to the Zentran ships? That may be true for the SDFM versions (other than color variations)...but they seem completely different as depicted in DYRL......but DYRL is a "dramatization" of the events of SDFM so maybe they really are not different "in-universe"??? Sounds like a question Seto could entertain.... Quote

Sounds like a question Seto could entertain.... Well, the "Meltrandi Assault Landing Ship" appears in VF-X2 as the "Embaterion Transport". It's not expressly described as a Meltrandi Ship. Just a fleet of transports being attacked by the enemy. A couple of "Medium Gunships" (Miria's Ship) also show up at various stages in the game, but just like the Embaterion, they're not clearly identified as Meltrandi (one is over an enemy base—said enemy uses Destroids and the VB-6), and another is part of an allied Valkyrie-using fleet (one led by one of the Jiinasu daughters, no less!) So, there's that to muddy the waters. A couple of equally valid explanations are that they're: 1) Meltrandi (as depicted in DYRL) exist, 2) Zentradi ships with different designs than the classic ones, 3) human-made ships, or 4) Inspection Forces' ships. Pick your poison, but I'm semi-partial to 4 (the Inspection Forces are apparently a mix of human-sized Protoculture and giant-sized Zentradi [thus hardly any conversion for different sized crew], we don't see very many of them, and it explains why they're depicted as the "enemy" in DYRL.) Edited April 15, 2021 by sketchley Quote
jvmacross Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Yeah...there are some definite differences between the Meltran ships as seen on DYRL vs SDFM......the TV versions just seem like purple versions of the Zentran ships.... However, the DYRL Meltran ships have a more angular look to them than their organic looking Zentran counterparts..... Still....since there really is no definitive information as to what is the "true" version of what things look like in Macross "in-universe" Mr. Fuso's assessment on them may be true....."from a certain point of view".....

Sounds like a question Seto could entertain.... I decided to drop the question after that, and talk about legend of the galactic heroes instead. After I get to know him better I might revisit the subject. Quote
jvmacross Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 I will look forward to any follow up info you may get out of your talks with Mr. Fuso Quote
jvmacross Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 (edited) These guys are moving fast! Another issue coming out end of May.... Looks like a mashup issue! SDF-1 with Yamato and Arcadia "arms", Cosmo Tiger VF-25 and the infamous Orguss Valk (they are calling it the VF-1 "Orguss Pack"...looks like another must-buy....
