Toynami screws up again, big suprise. Im sick of this man. Toynami's site hasnt been updated since last Comic-Con, RT.com hasnt been updated in forever either. Forget it, HG and Toynami suck, they have a ton of loyal fans, and all we get nothing in return. STOP SCREWING THE FANS DAMNIT!!!!!

but the simple truth is there's nothing we can do about it.

These days, the companies and such care so little for thier fans that all we can do is sit itght and live off the meager scraps they feel like giving us when every they're short a few dollors.

I hate it too, but don't give up on the site because there's TONNES of great fans here to interact with even though HG is trying so hard to ignor us.

I dont think they are ignoring us..I just think they are VERY busy...They have the new animated show in production...the Warner Bros. movie and the rest of the HG projects to take care of. Maybe they only have a small dediated staff for this web page.

Maybe they are under contract obligations not to release any information until such time as certain events.

Also remember the writers strike might be affecting this site as well with people in the HG offices having to do double duty on things they might never have had to deal with.

Just be patient....I think it will be worth it.

silence is acceptance.

I have to agree that Robotech.com is poorly run. The updates are so few and far in between that I usually find the information elsewhere long before it's posted here. Add to that, there's no real connection with the people in charge besides sporatic public appearances at the Con's. And the admins of the forum don't count as they can't give out any information.

Toynami's web site is even worse. They really need to get with it and assign someone to do updates & blogs (ala Sideshow or Gentle Giant). They only way to truely contact them is to do a search for their phone # (because it's not listed on their site) and call them. BUT once you get through to customer service, they are very friendly people who care about their customers and what they have to say. So, that in itself puts Toynami in a MUCH brighter light than HG & dot-com.

It sucks because Robotech fans really care and that caring falls on deaf ears 99% of the time. How can you expect people to wait around forever? It's NOT going to happen and I fear that because of this a demise could be sooner than later. I really do hope to see Shadow Rising and a live action movie, but I am not going to hold my breath.

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

in the times i've heard Tommy on Space Station liberty... he does seem to want to further expand the franchise but I think their issue is monetary to do the many things the hardcore fans want.

I to admit that the website is not operated to the full potential that it should.

The team has got lots of work to do with the current commitments to animated products. Also the team serves and deals with this website as an addition to their own, separate full time jobs at HG. The site often gets neglected when they have large projects to handle, and I don't think their bosses like the idea of paying out cash to a permanent/full time webmaster at the moment(or ever.)

Just have to get used to it.
As for Toynami, I completely agree!
