The awacs is the VE-1 elintseeker.



Actually, looking at google images, and ebay/amazon scams, the VE-1 was not in the show. The one in the show (I'll eventually find the episode) was basically the US carrier prop AWACS. Now the episode never showed it configure outside of AC mode. (I know Masters episode 1 or 2 showed a slanted wing jet version)...

Same here, especially since it appears that they've put a hold on the next Shadow Chronicles movie in anticipation of the live action movie.

Not a big fan of the Shadow Chronicles, but glad to see the story continue.

You know, I watched the end of the Invid invasion TV series long long ago and only watched that Shadow movie a couple of years ago. I was disappointed. I have never seen the Shadow series.

Shadow Chronicles is supposed to be a series of movies, Shadow Rising is supposed to be the next one.
But when word of a possible live action movie, production on it was put on hold.

I actually just looked over on Robotech.com and it looks like a "new" animated movie is going to be released in a few weeks. It apparently will tell the story of Lancer between the Masters Saga and the New Generation series...gee...just what I always wanted to see.

Cyclone armor for the motherfucking win.  My kids love Robotech, whole thing is on Netflix.  Shadow chronicles, meh.  Big boobs and Kevin Bacon 'footloose' hair.  CG animation was so-so.

Well honestly, that would be a good look at the Jupiter Base counter attack. As it is, Lancer is the only character of the Invid series to be shown from Jupiter Bases efforts. We see a strong showing from Mars Base.

You know, for the 80's, ROBOTECH showed quite a bit of controversial shit to us young-ins... Interracial love between a cracka man and a black woman. Lancer and his whole cross dressing trans bit... this shit was 1984!

Long ago.... Seen them all, but just don't remember him getting shot.



Started downloading them for my boy to watch a few years back, but was only able to get some of the Invid saga... He thought they were to lame compared to his anime of today.



Kids today will take some mystical shit over bad ass planes that turn into robots or bikes that turn into battle suits!



Cyclone Armor was always my fav!







So I watched them alone

Up until the early to mid 90's I had the 3 sagas that I taped on VHS of the tube! Think my 1st wife took them thinking they were wedding, camping and dune riding videos!!!





Sadly I would have traded her as I had the ones she wanted and I would have took the RoboTech... My guess is both sets ended up in the trash

The next movie can be pre-ordered for $20 on Robotech.com and its packaged with The shadow chronicles.

They need to make the Sentinel Robotech series with the SDF-3.

It's just under $13 on Amazon.

I'd like to see a Sentinels series, but their story can also be told during Shadow through flashbacks and such.

I want to see someone do a One Year War Gundam movie without all the teen angst.

Although cant really top good animation:



This is what ruined most Anime Mech series for me. Rick Hunter was a "hippy" when it started. But when shit went down, he manned the fuck up with a quickness. He actually did what needed to be done and became a leader. All the character in Robotech/Macross are actual soldiers. Kill the enemy because fuck you I dont need a reason.

Other anime series? Hell no. You get to hear about constant whining about war or their dead mom or whatever is hurting their vagina. The lead characters are bitches.


Robotech/Macross is also why I'm an engineer. One that works on weapons systems and robotics

I will tell you the absolute truth, I will be completely unable to tell if they fuck it up or not, because I pretty much have forgotten that show.



I watched as a kid, and I remember that it was about giant robot fighters, and that Earth was at war with a race of giant green aliens who dressed in Antebellum garb. I remember that the main character was this kid who was some kind of natural ace at flying his ship and he had this girlfriend who kept being a millstone around his neck. I remember the last scene where the redhead space navy chick told the girlfriend that she had to let the kid, and then the kid and the redheaded space navy chick rushed off to battle.



That's it. So really, if they fucked it up, I'd never even know.

Hell all I remember was it was on the tube at 4pm and I got out of school at 3:45... Sprinted home to tape each and then it was "MASK" and "Transformers".



By the time 4:30 came I was high and banging the neighbor girl who watched all 3 with me!  We actually did role playing of the Minmei/Lisa thing and well I was rick... Same goes for the MASK Matt/Vanessa thing! Hell I was hot for her for years... Damn red heads!

I guess I miss read or just missed this... 82-84 I watched this along with Transformers, M.A.S.K. and GI Joe! So whatever HG sent to the tubes is what I seen!
Somewhere along this I grew up and had my own kids!
Now 30 years later I would love a great Robotech saga to occupy my evenings switching between shitty TV!
And Vanessa would not hurt either!
