You know, the ones which came out when the Hero mechs came out:

Like Pretty Baby:


X-5:


Huginn


La Malinche


Oxide


and so forth...the Founder mech videos were fun as well.

From the Project Phoenix mechs onwards, no more infomercials of the Hero mechs....

Guess I'll be imagining the Phoenix Hawk hero to this music:


Anyone else miss the old infomercials?

Was thinking this as well. Way better than the current video comparing size etc.

They could reuse the music and everything else, no need for custom music for each.

Why didn't the Marauder have its own video? WHY?

I never saw those, so far (joined in Dec 2014). They are pretty nice. The ingame footage, too.

But uhm ... that child toy intro is horrible.
Like some 70ies opera show, but surely not like anything with a SciFi background.
Well, that's Japan for you, I guess ... Posted Image

It's a 1982 show....granted the animation for the video was from a 2009 pachinko game...
Just that the Robotech theme song just doesn't sound suitable

HEY! Take that harmony gold produced filth elsewhere. They kept me from my beloved marauder for years and I won't have their filth promoted on these forums.
