taksraven Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Y'know, the men in that "swimsuit spectacular" don't horrify me nearly as much as the women. Even the most modestly endowed women look like She-Hulk, and every single one was given a massive set of hooters. Well then, I guess it would now be appropriate for anybody who has the issue to post up the pics of the women for those of us who have never had the chance to see it........... Taksraven

Taksraven My curiosity was piqued as well, so I downloaded the "Winter Wonderland" Swimsuit Special from Macrosshare a few minutes ago, and... Ze goggles! Zey do Nahssing!
Einherjar Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 And people criticize the stuff we like for the over sexualization?
Gubaba Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 And people criticize the stuff we like for the over sexualization? I know...Minmay's SHOWER SCENES were less exploitative than that picture...
Einherjar Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 (edited) I know...Minmay's SHOWER SCENES were less exploitative than that picture... Are you being sarcastic? Just making sure. I've heard people drone on about how serious and pure Robotech was compared to the three shows that it was made from. But then official stuff like this comes up. What's up with that? Edited September 28, 2009 by Einherjar
Gubaba Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Are you being sarcastic? Just making sure. No, I'm being entirely sincere. Minmay's shower scenes at least show a certain amount of love and respect for the character. The swimsuit picture just seems dashed off with no regard for her whatsoever...and such, makes me feel a little grimy. Not as grimy as THIS one, however:

It kind of reminds me of a Robotech fan art I saw a long time ago being sold on ebay. I'll just say it was rated T for teen, showing Rick and Lisa's honeymoon, titled "Mrs. Macross."

VFTF1 Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 IT GREAT LOOK TO ME. LISA AND MINMEY SAME LOOK LIKE IN CARTOON. LINE ACURATE.

Seto Kaiba Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Ze goggles! Zey do Nahssing! Y'know, the thing that bothers me the most about this isn't the half-baked attempt to make Minmei sexier, it's the smile. At the angle it's at, it looks like a goddamn blow-up doll. And that's just terrible.
VFTF1 Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 IT CARTON ACURAT! WHAT YOU WANTING? IS HOW THE MINMAY IS! IF YOU RE-SERCHES THEN YOU SEE IT TRUE TO BE BUT THEN MUST OF COURES ADDMIT SUPERIOR ROBOTECH SO INSTEAD NOT WANT TO! ALSO IT BEST DESIGN. MICKY MOTO IS USING DIFFERENT DESIGN BECAUSE HIM NO HAVE RIGHTS TO ORIGINAL ROBOTECH MINMEY. STOP LIKING BOOTLEG MICKY MOTO MINMEY AND LOOK HOW GREAT REAL MINMEY IS. HER HAVING NIGHTCLUB. MEMO666 ------- Pete Having a hard time coming up with ridiculous pro-Robotech propaganda, but still determined to try
Funkenstein Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Its like Rob Liefeld drew it, except worse and with less pouches.
Jasonc Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 (edited) I was like... And if Robotech was in a RPG, they'd be rolling to take damage, critical strike. Edited September 28, 2009 by Jasonc
Wanzerfan Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 That wasn't the only reason I didn't see The Sum of All Fears. I didn't see the movie mainly because Tom Clancy absolutely hated what Paramount did with the screenplay. The actor they chose to play Jack Ryan didn't help matters any, either.
Wanzerfan Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 (edited) And if Robotech was in a RPG, they'd be rolling to take damage, critical strike. I have most of the RPG books, and I have to say... What the hell is Siembieda smoking, and why the f*ck isn't he sharing with the rest of this site??? Combat in his system sucks so hard that it can drain a freaking stallion. Edited September 28, 2009 by Wanzerfan
hutch Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 LOL! Lisa's head is like 3 sizes too small! And the poor thing has dislocated her left shoulder!!!!
EXO Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 wow, this is really looking at the bottom of the barrel. I guess you guys have run out of things to argue about.
Einherjar Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 wow, this is really looking at the bottom of the barrel. I guess you guys have run out of things to argue about. But this stuff from the comic books did represent Robotech for a time. It was official material for a while. It's a stretch, but I think it helps explain a lot about one particular aspect of character designs for Shadow Chronicles. Perhaps the franchise had that problem longer than fans think.
EXO Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Hey hey... just an observation... I don't care as long as it's robotech and you keep it here...
Seto Kaiba Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 wow, this is really looking at the bottom of the barrel. I guess you guys have run out of things to argue about. Give it time, we'll come up with some more drama sooner or later. In the mean time, we can all have a chuckle over the horrible art of the old Robotech comics.
EXO Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 I dont really blame anyone... I mean... no new news about Robotech... BIG SURPRISE!!! I'm betting the next little update about the franchise is gonna be HUGE though... HUGE!!! We're all gonna be in awe!

I'm betting the next little update about the franchise is gonna be HUGE though... HUGE!!! We're all gonna be in awe! Yeah, when compared to pretty much any competently-run franchise, Robotech really is bereft of news of any importance. Did you see what they had to resort to in order to stir up something for the front page news section? Steve Yun went to Reactor in Chicago to moderate a "which character could beat up which character" open debate. That was the best they could do for a news piece. In a situation like that, I guess it's only natural for the few remaining Robotech fans to make a big deal about every trivial piece of news that comes out. After all, it's the only way they can convince themselves that they're not wasting their time on a dead franchise. I, for one, fully expect the next major news piece will be Warner announcing that they've put the live action movie on indefinite hiatus.

Makes sense that Warner Bros. is in charge of the project, since they own Wildstorm comics (also DC, but's that's a no-brainer).

There's still that Maia Alpha revision and another Palladium book people are looking for. From experience, stuff like that actually counts as HUGE news there.

I doubt that they would even bother to make such an announcement. I think its just going to faaaaaaaaade away......... Taksraven

Taksraven I dunno, man... It got mentioned yesterday (scroll down to the near the bottom, where it talks about "Splatterman"): http://www.comicscontinuum.com/stories/0909/26/index.htm Nothing really concrete, of course, but I'm surprised it got mentioned at all.
