@MrInuhanyou123 I wrote a paper on children's TV violence when I was a kid :) I grew up at a good time, IMO, 70's 80's toons and the rise of Videogames. But also these gave rise to much paranoia. Most toons on American TV in the 80's were made to do one thing, sell toys. They were in fact, 30 min commercials. Many children's rights groups put pressure (forced) on the toy companies to have a percentage of educational content in the shows, e.g., GI Joe PSA's. I knew this and still had fun

@demodular So it was mid 80s huh? I guess that goes to show us what censors could do in those days. Edited up the arsehole, way worse than 4kids!(of course i'm not talking about the "family values kids of editing)

@MrInuhanyou123 I was 15 when Robotech came out. It was 1985. It's the reason that I got into industrial design son!

@MrInuhanyou123 Yeah that's what I meant.

@KoopaNinj actually no it didn't lol.
the first Gundam came out in japan in 79, macross came out in 82. Robotech came out in the early 90s as an edited version of 3 series taped together, Super Dimensional Fortress Macross, Orguss and Hyper Dimension southen cross
Maybe your referring to the order in which they were introduced in america. In which case yes Robotech did come first,

@TomDracoRyu macross, southern cross and orguss.
Needless to say the most badass scenes you see in this promo are from macross

I've never even seen a single episode of Robotech and yet I get chills every time I see this promo. I don't want to be that guy who comes in spouting "HURR TODAYS TELEVISION IS SHIT COMPARED TO BACK THEN", but goddamn... it really WAS a special time.
