They look like static kits from the complexity of the joints. They do look great though, but I probably can’t afford the space. I’m still keeping my fingers crossed that the moderoids will go further than just the garland

so incredibly hyped for the hargun! Despite me not owning Arcadia's Garland (yet.)
I plan to get 2 of them, and paint one up as the Space Combat ver, as i really love that varaint, and the spotlight it got for Robotech The Movie's ending!

Really interested in the trailer, hopefully that's getting produced, but considering its still a prototype model, i kinda doubt that (someone mentioned it a few pages back not getting produced but i'm not sure if that's true or not, if so 😥).

Wonder if we'll ever get the Flaggar for this, that would be really fun to see, hell maybe the pluto fighter!

But by far the most interesting to me are these 2 new mechs:

One is a new bike, that transforms into a wearable Ride-Armor style.

The other being a transformable jet, with the pilot shifting into the robot chest like the Garlands.

It turns out that for this jet, the entire Garland with its rider in bike-mode goes into the cockpit. When the jet goes into robot / slave mode, the Garland shifts into its chest. There's a schematic drawing of the same bike-in-jet concept, but of a different FSW jet design below. The designer acknowledges some intentional differences with the canard positioning to make it different from (presumably) Macross's VF-19.

I got to say, I'm getting more excited for these designs, as they combine 2 mecha types I love - jets and bikes. Although, the bike-in-cockpit concept is something tangentially familiar. Where have I seen that before?? :p

Think I'd like to see some more concepts of the Delzog....we didn't really get to see much about them since the story focused on Shogo and his crew, which is obvious as to why. I always got the impression they were Borg like before we even got the Borg.

What i find most interesting is about this Pluto(?) is the fact it's canonizing RTM's use of the fighter, Having a Hargun serve as a cockpit and as an escape mechanisim.
Idk if that WAS a concept explored for Part 1, and was only made use of in RTM, or if it was a unique thing done for RTM just to have a similar moment to Hikaru in his VF-1D. 

But its nice to see more of the Fighter and Garland compatibility, since the Garland itself is a multi-use terminal. So it being used for piloting Larger craft dose make sense, and also Thematically matches the use of the Flaggar as a Hargun transport.
