Description For more Lil Formers head to www.LilFormers.com

As I have mentioned before, I am really hoping when/if the Robotech film gets made, that they tell a great story and show that a giant robot movie can also be a good movie.

Also on the subject of Go-Bots, even if anyone wanted it there could never be done really. Most people know that Hasbro gained the rights to the Go-bots property when they purchased Tonka, but all they really got in that deal was the name 'Go-Bots', and the character names. Probably the basic plot as well (though it's possible that's owned by the animation people). Anyways, they actual toy designs are owned by Bandai in Japan (as part fo the original Machine Robo toy line that Tonka built the Gobots from), so I don't see them ever teaming up with Hasbro to make a Gobots-anything these days. For the same reason, you'll never see Go-bots re-release toys. Sorry.

Oh also note, the robots with pilots have round speech balloons. Attention to detail!

there has been talk about that one for a while


Also, the music theme is more Macross than Robotech
Robotech only used footage from the first Robotech series along with two other anime's

Seen a Voltron 'movie' it was a lame 'full motion' comic book. Definition: A Comic that is read to you and shown to you with pieces separated into foreground and background section so they can move Independent if the main Picture.

'Tried' to watch more than a minute of this show at once, and promptly lost interest/had thoughts if suicide to rid me of this gross injustice.

Hah, actually the same company that did that one did the same thing for our Street Fighter comics(my day job is largely working on those SF comics). Sometime sit's impresing how much they can animate from a still image, but yeah, it's nothing compared to real animation.

I only tuned in to it due to its TV Guide entry which only said Voltron(2009). Given I've heard rumors of a Voltron movie for a few years, I made note of it...should have just slept instead.

Hahah great comic, as usual.

The "more dignity than a Bayformer" line is awesome.
Although I still think the 1:1 Gundam comment tops this comic.

I think his point was that you take too many jabs at the live-action movies that it's becoming a little predictable and unfunny.

In retrospect, he may be right.

I am aware of that. It doesn't mean I am defending that scene however. Merely agreeing with another user that you kinda overdo the movie jokes.

In that case, apologies. It's just something that I seemed to notice personally.
Although I do think you could still come up with better jokes about the movies rather than the obvious ones.

well 'bootleg' anyway - took right from video by the looks of it

- They really need to put out an official release, but seeing as how Hanna-Barbera did the toon and hasbro owns the right to the Gobots I seriously doubt that'll happen ^^

One other note, if there is any dignity in Hollywood, there would be a Megas XLR movie. Of which, the giant robot crushes Michael Bay during an interview with eMpTyV.
