Macross anyone?

I didn't really want to post another IC, so maybe better to post it here.

Does anyone is old enough to remember Macross (maybe you know it by the name of Robotech).

Would something like this appeal to you?

Interesting!

The moment you post a Gundam or Evangelion set, is the moment my brother might finally see the light on keyboards…

Evangelion is on the work (not by me)

Macross stuff is still ongoing, the recent works are kinda silly though.

last one I watched was Macross Plus, but nothing is like the original (the OAV is also nice)... this set is growing on me... unfortunately I'd be alone buying this :D

The original accepts no substitutes, though Frontier and Zero were /okay/ :ugeek:

JEEZ?! Did they remastered it?! The one I remember wasn't that good.

I like this set. One of very few multicolor sets that i would love to see happen (in ISO ofc :p).

yeah the more I see it the more I like it... I think I'll try to make a GB very soon together with Midnight.

You know that sinking feeling when you realise there's nothing to stop you from getting into ALL THE GBs, until you see the bill…

well the good part of these quick-n-dirty GB is that they will be rather inexpensive (well compared to R5 at least)

DSA is magic like that. No need for fighting over rows! Not that I'd know about that, ahem…

You know my 60%'s layout — classic 60% + HHKB Shift, Function and Backspace — if you fit that, I'm very likely to join. I find it an excellent setup, and I'm likely to stick to it more or less.

All kits. Please check for errors. Looking forward for your feedback.

Other ideas for custom keys?

Looks good, you've got every key I need. I'd just have to buy 3 of the 4 to get them, as usual!

I watched nothing more than Macross Plus so my judgement wont be accurate :) same with Gundam Wings :oops: The last mecha I watched was Z.O.E. Dolores I :o

It's me or there is a lot of SF sets coming the next year ?

only thing to be determined is if the white is pure white or off-white

Bugger! I should have remembered to ask for it.

Ahh a Macross keyboard. I think a nice accessory to such a keyboard would be a giant trackball like the one those Pinpoint Barrier operators use aboard the SDF-1

Well, that might be a bit too large.

Whom do I have to kill to get them? Alternatively, do you have a link?

Sifo and I on GH have been discussing the Eva set for awhile now. Currently just waiting on some current GBs to close before opening it up.

But Eva-00 is my favourite one. Like the Japanese fans, I'm all about Rei!
