--- Quote from: Tatsujin on August 26, 2009, 01:13:57 PM ---What's the reason for not licensing the series (and other Macross titles) to the states? There were problems ... I'm guessing the producers are asking for a large sum of money to get it licensed ... can't blame them if so.

Legalities. Harmony Gold and the Robotech franchise stand in the way of anyone wanting to bring Macross to the US, and although it's ultimately unlikely that they could contest it should Macross be licensed, the mere possibility of a lengthy (and costly, even if you win) lawsuit in the US isn't something most companies look forward to; the profit margins on anime aren't exactly stellar to begin with. If you want to know more about it, google "macross legalities".

I'm at work so I'm having trouble getting to some websites (gives me access denied). Can you be just a bit more specific?

Animesuki has an old thread on the matter. It should suffice to explain the situation, though it's not entirely up to date.

Yea I went there. Thanks and well .. Macross series shouldn't get licensed in the US. Fansubs already took care of the subbing, re-releasing and giving it to us in Blu-ray formats. ;] As long as it's popular and in demand !

Does anybody know of a release of http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=BCXE-216 and similar content? I would most likely like this type of content, but I don't know if anybody has released it.
(The one I linked is to be released, but prior events should be available?)
