In other news I have just one episode left in my rewatch of Macross.
Holy #$%^! A Christmas episode where people actually say Merry Christmas rather than Merry Non-Specific Winter Holiday! They even go to church! It's a Kwanzaa miracle!

At least an upgrade bit on the sprue would be nice.
I'm pretty sure the strike VT was only in the movie Do You Remember Love which HG does not have the right to.
Easy enough conversion though for most of us.
They do, actually. Not the rights to distribute the movie, but the rights to all of the designs.
This is why Toynami and Harmony Gold released Strike Valkyrie toys.

Don't forget this is Palladium's game. So the game is going to have stuff based on what they've had in their RPG game books.
Harmony Gold is pretty much just cashing the checks. I doubt they have any say into what goes into the miniature game.

Well, ND already said Strikes are going to be in it.
And not quite. After Palladium let the license slip, when they renogiated for it, HG (specifically, Tommy Yune, who is now Robotech Canon Master) was a lot stricter. They have far more control - which is why a ton of stuff got 'fixed' in the newer versions of the rules.

While it seems we are getting some non-robotechnology vehicles like the lancer and ghost fighters, those waiting for more conventional vehicles like tanks and helicopters may be a bit disappointed.
Right now we are focused on the mecha. The standard vehicles are currently not in the plan.

$15 worth of figures added to the box makes me happy. I was wavering on whether or not I could justify dropping $30 for 6 of them, obviously only needing $15 more to round out a squad isn't nearly as big a deal (and surely that's part of their plan; alleviate some of the strain, round out the boxes and make it all the more tempting to 'just grab one more add on...').
Edit: all the better for those folks able to afford a Showdown; full squad added then and there. My Reckless tier is split between 2 friends and I, one of whom is picking up 2 of the 4 boxes (basically a discounted Showdown), so he's getting that full squad right there.

And yes to answer many of your messages to us. Anime Wars Battle Board (ND & G&G) will fit swimmingly well with Robotech. In-fact ND artists are on it as I type .
Good to know! Hopefully there will be a terrain add on at some point in the last week.
Even with the new pledger goal gap increasing to 300, we should be able to hit the decal mark in 10 days since we're averaging over 65 pledgers per day for the last couple of weeks (excluding the first week).. and that's assuming the pace doesn't pick up near the end.
