Poke-Mon
1) Charazard is a Genisis pit Creation.
2) Poke-balls use Invid compression or Fold Technology to Store 40ft Monster in 3 inch balls
3) Ash is the Son of Scott bernard
4) The Girl is Lancers Daugthter with Sera
5) no one Really Cares about the SDF-3... all these Gensis pit monster need to be caught.
6) Bill and Prof. Oak are Scitentist on par with Lang and Penn.
7) No Valkeries in Pokemon
Gotta catch em all!
9)did i mention the Pokemon look Like Genisis Pit monsters, the all "Evolve" through enlightnend Evolution.
10) Team Rocket is the Natrual progression of The Anti-U/EBSIS.

Surprised no ones suggested Bubblegum Crisis. I haven't seen enough to make a list, but it seems a natural candidate.
But for my entry...
GUNDAM!!!
1) Big Giant Frickin' Mecha!
2) The hero and main villian pilot the best looking ones! (Like Rick and Khyron)
3) Matilda!
4) Lunk's brother, Sgt. Ryu
5) Humans are evolving, just like in a Genesis Pit...
6) The leaders of both sides are evil pricks.
7) It sucks to be in a mass-produced mecha.
8 ) Cool mothership in both (SDF-1 and White Base)
9) Cosmic war story!
10) One of the coolest villians ever, Char Aznable, the Red Comet!!!

Battletech: The Animated series!
1A) it's mangled setting info is better suited for robotech than battletech!
1B) We can have the unseen back! Wohoo!
2) the main characters are whiney idiots with no real personality, just like the ones in RT!
3) Jumpships can use fold drives!
4) the clans can be decendants of the Zentreadi and masters!
5) Mechs/Mecha, is there a difference?
6) animation quality is about as good as RT, despite being higher in detail!
7) a story about Destroid pilots, who can resist?
8 ) the innersphere explains where all the ships in Invid invasion came from, it's all colonies!
9) RT can be the time of the Star League!
10) Why the heck not?

Ok, here are the rules: Pick an anime, and give 10 reasons (serious and non-serious) as to why it should be made into a piece of the classic Robotech series.

Eh, I was sick when I wrote that list. So I guess my mistakes are excusable. Still, it's a kickin' anime and would probably be a far better addition to Robotech than what HG is currently producing. Oh I'm going to add something I nearly forgot and could have put in the top ten list instead of #5: It has better opening/closing music than RT.
Hmmm....the RT music is actually superior, by a great margin, to the original Macross score, or, the French adaptation

Rhea Gall Force and
Gall Force: Earth Chapter
10.) Done by ARTMIC Studios, the people who brought us Mospeada
9.) Ten Little Gall Force would make a cute intro, better than that stupid SD Macross
8.) The Neo-Paranoids look Invid-like enough to be new versions
7.) If Southern Cross can be Earth, then this Earth can be a colony!
6.) They've got a small planet-fragger to blow up the main base
5.) Mix in a little footage from the original
Gall Force and you have a
Mospeada-ish space fleet.
4.) The little kid isnt nearly as annoying as Annie
3.) They have androids like Janice
2.) The Mars Defense Force starfighters look cool.
1.) Sandy is a babe, especially in the shower scenes!

Hmmm...I take it then that you're a Bolo/Dinochrome fan?
Along those same lines(I should probably intro this as its own thread...)
salvaging a GMU from being a lackluster mobile base and converting it to a giant super-tank? Hmmm...strip out the hangar bay and living quarters, reconfigure the armor for better protection, upgrade the missile launchers, toss out the super-laser for a Synchro-Cannon or Zentraedi-style ship laser turret, bolt on some old MAC II cannons, add a dozen Raidar laser cannons and fire control systems for point defense, maybe add on a Pinpoint Barrier Shield, and tie in all in to an EVE-derived A.I....
Drop on any world you want to hassle...like attacking Invid Hives from the ground, or harassing Tirolian facilities...
Okay...to keep on thread, how about Venus Wars?
Could be a post-Invid War setup....REF-terraformed Venus coloy attacked by rival EBSIS colony....mecha are rare because of depleted protoculture reserves, so conventional vehicles rule...at least until the return of the REF...
Blue Submarine No. 6...another post-Invid War set-up, this time with a secret set of bio-engineered Invid 'leave-behinds' or another new alien race making trouble for humanity, this time intent on flooding the Earth...Earth forced to re-arm with transforming submarines and underwater mecha(The last remanents of the ASC SEa Squad step forward!)

I'm going to go with something very special to my heart.....
Appleseed (The manga, not that one episode anime)
1. Briareos Hecatonichres - He can plug into a Veritech....the guy could make a Veritech do things that would make even Max go "whoa!"
2. Duenan Knute - makes Miriya look like a girl scout when it comes to determination and a rookie fresh out of boot when it comes to gunnery and piloting skills.
3. Masamune Shirow - imagine Robotech drawn in his style...
4. Landmates would make for awesome anti-Zent urban or jungle units
5. Olympus ESWAT doesn't pussy-foot around like the RDF, SC, and REF did....they go in and rain hell down on people in very tight, very fast engagements. No squeeling like girls when they get down to business.
6. Duenan would've left little Annie in the wastelands
7. The flying Guges suits
8. Gong ga-gong gong GOOOOONG! Coolest looking pistol ever.
9. Spider Gun Platforms. Cheaper and more manueverable than a MAC II, and they carry close-in defense unlike the Monster.
10. Gratuitous shower scenes with infinitely hotter babes than Robotech.

BGC and it's spawn.
1. Nene's cute and has a really weird hair color (must be Zentradi or related to max)
2. Scantily clad women.
3. There's alot of music sung by on character imparticular.
4. A pervert brother who trys to get a peak at his sister in her lingere.
5. The good guys "mecha" emphasises agility.
6. Occasionally Nude (anime barbie nude) women.
7. More upbeat and better quality music than RT...in the non-dubbed version
8. Scantily clad women in the same bed.
9. Genom is a front for the RT masters who weren't destroyed by the SC and went into hiding and have returned to take over the world financially and enslave the human race by mass producing Magic The Gathering, Pokemon and a billion other stupid but oddly addictive games.
10. The much smaller Battle Movers and Hardsuits are obviously where RT advanced too, plus the Hardsuits still show off their...curves.
Was that good enough?

Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Anything that combines man and machine that closely probably has protoculture involved some way... The EVA units are the only piece of hardware I would take over a VT. Those 14 year olds were pretty well developed. It was like a 15 hour session of Mind Rape. (I loved every minute) Giant invading Aliens... Giant invading Aliens with 98% compatible DNA. Clones, the end of the freaking world... It even had some character development and neat plot twists.
