So what is everyone's fav Valk type? I still have to say the YF/VF-19 is my favorite.

Do you remember mine? Here's a hint there's a group shot in the old thread. Can we reopen it?

Wa-Pow! http://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=118&p=594#p594

Looks like most of my galleries are still there. lol I haven't used that photo service in a long time., so long I can't remember which one I used.

The thread is still locked, anyway to unlock it so we can use that instead of this new thread? We were supposed to have a new SC TV series years ago, instead we just get SC released on DVD over and over.

Years ago, I saw the first VHS Robotech and forgot most of the details. I watched the first episode on Netflix's Watch Instantly.

I love the robot designs and it's one of those nerd pop culture icons that I don't know much about. I may have to watch the rest.

Well I bit the bullet and ordered the SC Maia Alpha. I'll post my feelings (and hopefully not disappointment) on it when I ship my POL. I'm pretty nervous to see the QC on it

Back to Macross, has anyone seen the second Frontier movie yet? I can't wait for it's DVD release!

Also, HLJ has clearance one their Yamato stuff. Millia's VF-22 for about 100 USD!

I'd check it out but there's so much main line stuff out that I want first.

Both Tommy and Kevin (who not only runs great panels at cons, but is just a great guy to hang with) have been issuing the same statements since 2008, I've seen a number and 75% of one years panel is word for word from the year before.

The long and the short of it is that Shadow Chronicles did well enough to warrant the 2nd volume which was effectively green lit and then put immediately on hold once they had a decent live-action proposal on the table. As long as the Live movie is still viable, we'll be waiting for SC2. We are not going to see anything further for SC until the movie leaves the pre-production stage for either actual filming or the trash bin.

Either way, by the time we have a set date for SC2, another entire Macross series could be announced, debuted, had a full TV run, and put out on DVD.

I still get a kick that fans in japan fan-subbed Shadow Chronicles as a GC Mospeda sequel.

I didn't know they did that. Forget a SC movie, we were supposed to get a cartoon. From what I gather fans want more stories from the Macross Saga. That was the most successful of the Robotech saga and in my opinion the best. I also have a grudge against Toynami and HG now over the crap they pulled forcing sites to drop Yammato Mechs.

Chuck, the movie is for the original Macross story, or at least partly based on, not Shadows.

5 gets you ten, regardless of what they call it here, it will be marketed in Japan as Macross regardless.

That upsets me.

I was a Macross fan before I gave Robotech a shot. I refuse to accept that the Macross Saga exists in Robotech. Southern Cross and Mospeada only!

I know about the live action movie. I was saying that even now people want new stories about Rick, Roy Max, Mila, and the big guy. Heck SC really only follows Scott Bernard, what happened to the rest of his crew?

The quick and dirty answer is that for what Harmony Gold wants to do with SC, the rest of the Irregulars simply don't factor in. Much the way they were written for End of the Circle.

Lancer would go back to entertaining people and act as a beacon of hope.
Lunk and Annie would go live their lives.
Rook and Rand while the easiest to write in, would get lost in the shuffle against trained REF members.
