The last 'Element'
This disc, originally packaged with the seventh volume of the "Robotech: The Legacy" DVD box set series, is a hit-and-miss affair. I found some parts intriguing, and others kinda weak. Fortunately, this particular Elements disc was more towards the intriguing side of the spectrum. There's several photo presentations of various Robotech merchandise, including the Robotech Fan Club starter packet, the novelizations, toys, fashion doll accessories, and other tchotchkes I never even knew existed before! Also included is a Spanish Pepsi Robotech fountain glass ad, and (once again) snippets from the show dubbed in various different European languages. I also found the demos from the Robotech video games to be pretty neat, if somewhat primitive-looking by today's PC video game standards. Then there's the Easter Egg: click the Mospeada logo on the lower right part of the bonus disc display screen, and you'll see a two minute-long Revell promo. <

>Finally, there's the main event: the plethora of snippets that were trimmed from the original Japanese shows. Although some of them were taken out because they were considered too violent or naughty for U.S. kidvid (Note to you anime horndogs out there: sorry, no nudies in this batch of excised scenes), there're many more that were rather innocuous, and were removed simply for pacing reasons. Especially notable is the infamous part cut from Roy Fokker's death scene in `Macross', featuring the bloody entrance wounds in his back that led to his demise. This particular bit has pretty much put to rest assertions made by some elements of the `Techie Nation that this particular bit was actually shown in `Robotech', but was cut from subsequent broadcasts. Fortunately(?), it has been restored in the `Rbobtech Remastered' DVD series release (available in the volume 2 set at ). Also, you can now get all three of the original Japanese series that make up the `Robotech' saga, uncut and uncensored. Just type the word "Macross", "Southern Cross", or "Mospeada" into Amazon's DVD search field, and you'll be on your way! <
