I'm not familiar with Robotech, but it always seemed kind of generic sci-fi to me. What's its unique appeal, exactly?
I know that once Macross 'ended', Robotech as a show continued on by using footage from another series, right? And then another series after that once the 2nd show ended.
But any of this seamless and coherent? I know that with each 'series', the explanation is that it's a new generation of sorts, hence the introduction of new characters and bots....but what about the villains and such? Unless they're reusing animation and integrating them in and out of each cuts, how was anything connected?

So the whole Robotech mythology that was created for the US is pretty much based on the Macross material; and everything else afterwards is just irrelevant?
It's confusing because Macross too, is available in the US on DVD. I mean, does that mean that another studio can get the rights to 'MACROSS PROPER' and compete against Warner Bros?
What are the merchandising rights for RT? Could Sony get a piece of that pie? That would motivate them into getting a Sony RT franchise of the ground too.
