Nice! I loved that show... shame what Carl did to it, but I'd probably never have seen it otherwise. 
The transforming bikes were really the best part, but the Invid's designs were also wonderful, so smooth and alien

True words, man! It was Robotech that truly prepped me for becoming an anime fan. The "New Generation" was full of great mecha and heroes who were way ahead of the curve in beating the apocalypse on its own terms in their own motley-crew fashion.
Yeah, Robotech really was the 'gateway drug' to a brave new world of mind-altering anime! Just imagine young Brent's surprise when he saw the VHS of 'Akira' and thought... "Hey, this looks like Robotech, I think I'll rent it and see what it's about."
Been there, done that, loved the spectacle. My first exposure to non-Robotech anime was The Wanna-Bes, Outlanders, Fight! Iczer-1, Project A-ko, Macross: Do You Remember Love, and Megazone 23. Needless to say I was hooked after that.
Yeah! Good times, you've got some real classics there. 
Thanks 
Yes, for all the sin of Robotech it helped bring anime here... so I forgive it

I love that particular arc in RobotechIt's one of the best!
Nice to me another Robotech fan.... Most people damn it for manipulating the origuinal stories...but I think we'd never have seen them otherwise.
That's the truth! If Carl hadn't Macek'red them, nobody outside Japan would have ever heard of them.
I totally agree
