No, it's not. Shinji Aramaki confirmed this to me about those designs. I've posted elsewhere about this.

*sigh* No, the Imai Files DO NOT contain design concepts for a continuation of MOSPEADA .* The Imai Files definitely do contain concepts for a continuation of the show. Everything in envelope M4 (four ride armors and four Legioss variants) was designed one month after MOSPEADA started airing. There...

As someone who firmly believes that Robotech could have future potential if its owners could be persuaded to think beyond the confines of Carl Macek's hastily assembled amalgamation of Macross , Southern Cross and MOSPEADA , isn't it understandable that I'm a trifle annoyed that that's what they're...

Obviously, the creators of the Macross franchise are keen to protect their work because it's enormously popular, and thus enormously successful. Holy hyperbole, Batman. "Enormously successful" is overstating things. Gundam deserves that label. Evangelion does. Macross? Not so much. As rob...

According to Jason Marker's blog, he was laid off in September 2009, months after I stopped trying to re-establish communication with Palladium:

This is probably pointless, but I feel I have to respond to some information regarding me posted nearly a year ago on page 5 of this thread... Roger Harkavy first brought the existence of the art book proposal and its eventual rejection by Harmony Gold to my attention, and I sought confirmation from...

You know, the Southern Cross did use "human wave" tactics. They show it in the opening credits with that big wall o' battloids.

Also I believe that HBT is a left over from the original Mospeada. It is what they called their advanced hydrogen fuel. I'm sure it's an acronym, but what the letters stand for exactly I don't know. In the original MOSPEADA, I think the "H" in "HBT" was supposed to stand for &qu...

The mods are right, but feel free to keep reporting me, it's funny. ;p

This thread is funny. This info came from a conversation with a couple of Macross fans in Japan, so I have no sources for you, but South Alitalia Island is supposed to be a fictional island (i.e. it doesn't actually exist) in the Ogasawara Island chain: m Monster Island from the Godzilla movies, on ...

Its entierly possible for the ASC to have 2 Mecha that are nearly Identical, one being piloted and the other not. 1 called a "Golem" a AI driven Mecha used for Self-defense. and a "Garm", a Piloted version, also used in defensive operations... It is possible, and there was anoth...

I thought we were pointing out nits with the RPG book, not the show.

I'd say "animation error" but you don't seem to believe in those.

If there are two separate designs, why aren't they on Tanizaki-san's web page?

Colonel Wolfe wrote:...a Golem isnt exactly a beast or monster... but something man-made.

Hm. Like an autonomous robot?

Ah. Got it: m He's got MOSPEADA mecha up, too: m I'd write this off to a language barrier (the same reason the unmanned Legioss is listed as "mujin" on that site). It would be sort of strange that all of the Southern Cross battloids had mythology-based names except for one. Unless it was a...

Rabid Southern Cross Fan wrote:Says Garm. Why don't you ask him if I'm 'saying it wrong'?

I'd be happy to. Got an email address or a URL?

I'm guessing that the word "golem" wasn't in his vocabulary when he wrote the list. And if there are two separate mecha named Golem and Garm, then why aren't both of them shown there?

First off, repeat after me. Not Golem, GARM. I'm repeating after you and it sounds like I'm repeating two different romanizations of the same katakana. Is that what you're doing? If you're relying on machine translation it probably won't assign "Golem" to the same characters. Watch the cl...

CavScout wrote:No, we're just back to my original question. Why do you care?

I care because I know akim, and as I've explained I've already been in that situation so I was looking out for him.

If you don't understand where I'm coming from, that's fine.

Why do you care if he has asked the person or not? As far as I know, this is a photograph of a piece of original line art that akim owns. He posted it on Macrossworld, and it's being hosted and posted somewhere else without him being asked about it. I've been in this situation, and I would have pre...

Roger wrote:I think you should ask him.

Just curious, if no one complains about his positing of comic scans, why would he care about about complaints about someone's scan or photo of material that ain't theirs in the first place?

Who's complaining?

I think you should ask him.

Hey, Dave, does Akim know that you're using his photo of "Daniel" as part of your RPG fanfic?

Being in the military in a support trade, I often ressent that the suport trade are ill represented in any military game. recently I purchased the Robotech game and I've noticed the same thing. Let me get this straight: you want to buy an RPG supplement that lets you play a character that does exac...

Just what does one expect from a variable geometry (transforming) vehicle (Veritech)? Does it always have to robotic characteristics present in some configuration along with a conventional vehicle form OR can the changes be more subtle? If you're taking a poll, I would say that a "variable&quo...

Regarding this... m It's supposed to be a set of add-on armor for the Legioss battroid. Think of it as MOSPEADA's equivalent of the Valkyrie dressed up in the GBP armor. Incidentally, it was designed after the show started airing. Dunno if that counts as "pre-production," your mileage may ...
