Too Quiet.


I don't know how long this has been floating around out there, but the first time pal Evan and I had seen it was in the Reactor 2007 convention notice at Robotech.com -- it's the ALL-NEW, ALL-DIFFERENT cover art for the Shadow Chronicles: We Want All Your Money Ed-- err, Collector's Edition. Yeah, that's the ticket. If you look at the Amazon listing, it's packed with tons more pictures, including a full-color character lineup that I don't think was in the artbook, the new DVD back, the disc art, and more.

Also at the site this week, you can vote for the winners of the Robotech.com photo contest, and you can listen to Tommy & Carl talk about the franchise.

I'll be back later on in the week with a new Roboblog Chronicles or two.

Taking the New Generation with you.


In one of those funny moments of synchronicity that seem to happen on occasion, just as the Robotech.com store finally got the New Generation deck for Hero Factory's ROBOTECH card game in stock, they also posted the news that the cell phone game Tommy Yune's been trying to hype for about half a year now is launching on AT&T's Cingular phone network next week, with more carriers to come later. Mind you, neither of these things are anything I'm personally into -- I'm still iffy on whether I'm getting that Robotech Masters deck, tempting though it may be, and I just don't need the distraction of Alpha Fighters on my cell phone, no matter how much that game looks like something I would have been shoving quarters into at the local arcade about twelve years ago -- but y'know, it's something and probably worth mentioning.

In other gaming news, The Masters has Palladium Books' latest press release regarding the upcoming Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles RPG book. You expect me to copy & paste? Nah, I'd rather you hop on over and take a look at his blog, because I'm a nice guy like that.
