#0, The evolution of Valkyries
Posted by BLUE on May-26-17 at 12:47 PM
With Macross Delta having been out long enough that, if you WANT access to it, you can find it (or pay gross amounts for the Japanese Blurays, like me), what are people's thoughts on the VF-31, both in general and also in UF-metaverse? I love the changes to the mounting of the arms, personally, and the weapons pod that occupies the space the arms used to, but wondered what others thought.
The SV-262 Drakken III is a PRETTY mech, but its so damn complicated mechanically (I've transformed my Chogokin 262 three times and I've needed the instructions all three times) that I doubt it would be a serious competitor to the VF-1 in universe.
Also, the VF-1 has been upgraded in the Macross universe and still serves as a trainer, but with up-to-date avionics, more power, and the EX-Gear system from Frontier, so the dash 80 is kind of canon now.
Sorry, rambling, just curious about peoples thoughts
