Thanks for the pics Razerwire! Haven't seen that many pics of those 2 19's, maybe I'll pick up a double balls eventually and snap pics, I like the color scheme.

#3583 | | Autobot Join Date: Jan 2009 Posts: 82 Location: Kent, UK Collection Count: Around 1,000 toys, every UK / US comic | I'm starting to venture into the mighty world of Macross, got a few toys on order which I'm looking forward to receiving. What Macross Tv series is considered must-see viewing?
The only series I've seen is Macross Plus and I loved it, I preferred the subtitled episodes to the dubbed-movie though. What do I do next? |

#3584 | | The British Butcher Join Date: Nov 2002 Posts: 21,609 Location: UK! Collection Count: An awful lot. And a few SWTFs. | The original is probably the best place to start. It establishes a lot of the key themes that run through all of the shows.
Macross 7 is meant to be pretty decent, although you really don't want to watch that until after you watch the original.
Macross Zero is a prequel, it's short and I don't personally care much for its story although the dogfights are nice. Macross Frontier is the newest series out, and you probably want to watch that one last, as it carries on the wider storyline of the original and 7. Quote: |

freedom is the right of all sentient beings, and yes, animals are sentient too.

There's a thread on how to do this on MW.

#3589 | | smiling a blacktooth grin Join Date: Aug 2007 Posts: 357 Location: Bucketheadland Collection Count: They outnumber my instruments. | Is it irony if I replaced the arms of my 0S in fear of them breaking only to have them still crack? I just got finished performing emergency surgery to fix one arm and I believe I'll have to do the other one soon as well. Same exact condition as all the previous zero toys, cracked shoulder.
Good thing I kept the original arms around! Why must something so awesome be so cursed? 
Robots and guitars. Whats not to love?
