Some did. Some didn't. Differing manufacturers and sizes.

And if you have some uber modelling skillz, try out this kit...

Dude, that's an easy build. The bitch is in the seaming.

Wow, nice page. I found the silverplated SDF.

Could someone hint me in on a "spoiler"? I've seen a lot of Macross-eps when I was 6, but here in modern age I've only gotten to the fifth episode.
Can someone tell me, does the SDF-1 ever go back to the "lean ship"-config (after transforming in "transformation"), or does it stay in battleoid shape throughout time?

Can the big carrier robot dude transform? More or last, but not "transformable" as the one shown on tv.

and yes, I do think I used to own the VF-1 with the skull in the back, but yellow tail??

the VF-1s I owned are not as good in quality as the one shown in the page (I think that one is actually a model)

Well there are different ones. But I meant the black and yellow texture used by Fokker and his skull squadron in "Macross/RoboTech". It's a good imitation of the real F-14 squadron VF-84 "Jolly Rogers". My favourite, in fact.

Look.

Nifty, huh?

It doesn't just "look like" the Jolly Rogers... According to Macross or Robotech backstory (can't remember which), Lt.Cmdr. Fokker was the squadron commander of the Jolly Rogers aboard the aircraft carrier Kenosha during the global civil war that the SDF-1's arrival interrupted. When the exisiting militaries were integrated into the Robotech Defense Force/UN Spacey, the old "nationalistic" squadron name was done away with but Roy was allowed to keep the livery of the now-renamed "Skull Squadron"...

Very interesting. Is that backstory in the comics, or are there macross-episodes that deal with that?

At the risk of being a wet blanket, could we start steering this back toward TFs?

And Nimrod: I don't remember where Roy's backstory came from. Most likely one comic series or other...
