Anyway... seems the OP for this thread posted this and then dipped.  They don't seem to have been back to the boards since about 3 minutes after the thread was made.

I thought the very same thing. 
Wind them up and watch them go.. was my next thought..

Looking back over several decades of hobbyist/enthusiast media, there are several main reasons why Robotech seems to garner the lion's share of the distaste.

The main one is just that Robotech hung around protesting to still be valid and relevant years and then decades after the rewriting practices that created it went out of fashion where those others shows faded into obscurity.  Not only did the series continue to hang around long after rewrites came to be seen as disrespectful to the original work and original creators, its representatives outright disparaged and lied about the original shows and their creators too.

Carl Macek's toxic behavior and poor industry reputation certainly didn't help, nor did Harmony Gold's not-undeserved reputation for questionable litigation against other, more popular and successful, brands like MacrossBattleTech/MechWarrior, and Transformers.

Agreed; perhaps this thread should be locked?

Maybe. There are already a couple threads about Robotech and how it might continue or not. Maybe mash this bit into one of those as another option

If the OP wants to re-engage in this particular discussion, he/she/it can message any one of the mods.
