Expand There’s silver trim, gold trim and then the Kamjin one before he kills Roy. It’s briefly shown. It basically gets shot up quickly before he jumps out of the armor to battle Roy in just his battle suit. Kind of a blink and you could easily miss itthe other two really look more white and cream yellow, I just usually say silver and gold and people usually don’t argue with that Edited January 30 by Big s Quote

Shawn Posted January 31 Posted January 31 I guess there is also a Nous-ger Missile back back variant in the background when they are about to go into the sdf-1 in the movie, that would be a cool variant. Quote

Expand There was never a Destroid Spartan. It was all in your imagination. The line art you see on macross2 is just an elaborate hoodwinking campaign by dedicated fans. All footage that features it was the fans getting their hands on the physical tape and acid-etching it into scenes. Quote

The Phalanx was plentiful too. I’d look around online (especially Mandarake) to seen what they may cost now and what shipping would be. Certainly cheaper than eBay. Quote

Even google searching, you gotta be specific about the missile backpack or else just the three color variations pop up and most sites only mention those. I couldn’t even find a line art or anything about it, just a couple screenshots of that scene. I don’t even know if they show up anywhere else in the movie Quote

However, due to overall image darkness and the screen cropping, they're barely visible. It's no wonder that nobody really noticed them until the BR release about a decade ago! Quote

I do have to admit that most of the time it was a video cassette that I was watching and they probably just didn’t show well on there Quote
Shawn Posted February 3 Posted February 3 It was know earlier than this, but earliest mention on this version of the forums was 2004 omg that was 21 freaking YEARS ago here. Windjammer old school! Quote

Windjammer old school! Expand That just slipped through the sacred timeline and was forgotten. It's funny (and telling) that a lot of that thread goes off into the "what's canon " rabbit hole . No wonder it's been buried. Considering its obscurity, and the fact that i've never seen one, even from Wonderfest, if Hasegawa ever does a missile version , i would be most impressed. As it stands, just gimme the Kamjin DYRL version! Quote
sketchley Posted February 3 Posted February 3 I understand. 🫠 It's just like the Zentrādi Heavy Fighter Pod and Automated Refueling Tanker—hidden in plain sight all along. However, unlike the shoulder missile launcher on the Nūjaderu-Gā, they at least appeared in passing in print! Quote
Big s Posted February 11 Posted February 11 I still think they should have added standing figures of Max And Mirya and maybe a generic meltran as incentive to buy this one. Quote
jenius Posted February 11 Posted February 11 I was just watching DYRL wondering why no one ever made the cannon fodder Qrau and boom, here it is! Quote
