I don't know if it was all of "you" Ma K builders or the fact that I finally got around to watching "Robotech Shadow Chronicles (I could wait after all it took 25 years for it to released grumble grumble) But I decided to build a sci- fi entry at the last second to be put into the "figure........well um sci fi category.
For those not old enough to know the subject, Robotech was one of if not the first "anime' that was popular in the US way back when I was a squirt in 1985 when it came on after the National Anthem at 5:00 am . This was dubbed and marketed by Harmony Gold, (the scum, any battletech player HATES HG) in the US as Robotech. Robotech is a mish mash of several anime that once dubbed made a loose sort of epic story these include Macross, the rest of the tail can be searched out on old nerd book cases and this WIKI the part that concerns this build is from one of the latter portions called Genesis Climber MOSPEADA.
The Cyclone is roughly equivalent to the old VF1 Veritech fighter in protection, it is meant for infantry and as a back up for downed pilots of the VFA-6 Alpha vertech fighters. More on the history in particular to the cyclone can be had at this WIKI
Enough of the back ground and lets get this build on the bench, I don't have to much time!
