Merry Christmas by Chris 8:37 P.M. EST
Christmas comes around yet again, and mine was very nice. However, it was a shame my Macross DVD's didn't arrive before Christmas. Anyway, just because it's Christmas doesn't mean we stop updating around here. Now available is a review (with screenshots) for episode 47 of G Gundam. Hopefully the last two episodes will be available soon so that I can review them and finish the section.

Christmas comes early by Lore 2:24 A.M. EST
Many have been requesting some more variety in our mecha section. Today, I am proud to present the new Blue Comet SPT Layzner section that Chris has completed. Next up is Metal Armor Dragonar.

The Fight continues by Chris 12:43 A.M. EST
For today's update I present upgraded reviews for episodes 26-30 of G Gundam. Since it is the holidays, people always take vacations. Lore and MissBunny will be out of town for two weeks, leaving all the updates to me. There's a few surprises in store.

Macross returns by Chris 12:02 P.M. EST
With AnimEigo set to release their Macross DVD boxed set this week, I figured it was time to get back to the Macross mecha section. Thanks to the help of Jameson Leaser, scanner extraordinaire, I now have pictures for all missing mecha from the original series. They are:

SC-27 Star Goose
SDR-04-Mk.XII Destroid Phalanx
Grand Cannon
Recovery Pod
Re-entry Pod
Factory Satellite
Gunboat

Domon and Frodo by Chris 6:34 P.M. EST
No, there's no Frodo Baggins to be found on this site. However, I wanted to remind everyone that the move version of The Fellowship of the Ring opens in theaters tomorrow. Today's update, as expected, is upgraded reviews for G Gundam 21-25. That fanfic/fan art thing will just have to wait for another time. In an unrelated note, CNN reported today that Lycos announced the most searched for term on their site this year was 'Dragon Ball'. Maybe by next year it will be Gundam instead.

Holiday plans and beyond by Chris 8:44 P.M. EST
First, the business. Check out upgraded reviews for episodes 16-20 of G Gundam. Second, some announcements. I previously announced that Burke is going to be writing G Gundam profiles. In addition to that, he will be updating his Big List and other profiles, but he will also be writing new profiles for Turn A Gundam. As for what I will do, expect SPT Layzner's Mecha section to be up shortly, followed by Patlabor from Lore. Speaking of Turn A Gundam, I plan to acquire this series and start reviewing it again in early 2002. Also, upgrades of other Gundam reviews will continue until I am satisfied with everything.

More of the same, again by Chris 10:36 P.M. EST
For today's update I have upgraded reviews for episodes 11-15 of G Gundam. Speaking of G Gundam, I should probably make some mention of earlier news that the U.S. DVD's will be bilingual. However, broadcast details have yet to be announced. I am also working on the previously mentioned fanfic/fan art update, which should be ready either on Sunday or Monday.

More of the same by Chris 12:25 P.M. EST
This time I present upgraded reviews for episodes 6-10 of G Gundam. I am also pleased to make the following announcement. After a brief hiatus, Burke Rukes has returned to the Gundam community! He will be making revisions to some of the Mobile Weapons files. Also, in anticipation of its U.S. release, he will also be making Mobile Weapons files for G Gundam. I'll announce more specific details as they become available. Also, as I previously announced, more fanfics and fan art are on the way, probably next week.

G Gundam Stocking Stuffer by Chris 10:18 P.M. EST
I seem to have a lot of free time on my hands, which means more updating. For today I present upgraded reviews for G Gundam episodes 1-5. More stuff coming tomorrow.

No More Gundam...Ever by Chris 4:15 P.M. EST
Fear not, it isn't the end of Gundam. All it means is that I have finished working on all the mecha profiles. All the sections previously available on the Mecha Domain are now up again. A few are left blank because Burke didn't send them to me, but I'm working on that. As for what's next, expect more Macross and the premiere of SPT Layzner profiles soon. Also, a large fan art and fanfic update are in the works.
