Anyone here ever watch Starship Operators? Was going through my backlog and finished it recently myself.
Not a bad little sci fi space tactics series if you're in the mood for something less heavy than LOTG but a bit more complete than ___ of the stars.

I think I watched the first two episodes? It didn't hook me.

It was pretty good though a few of the deaths were a bit hamfisted.

Felt it could have used more episodes considering the number of characters.

this comic came out 1977, the same year Genndy Tartakovsky moved to the united states. I'm not saying he bought it, but I do believe he at least saw the cover at some point in his first few years of comic-reading, and the design aesthetic stayed with him and inspired Sym-Bionic Titan.

Aren't they both just Roman helmets?

vaguely, but the "fin" is much further up and more squared

It's a generic Hollywood Roman/Greek helmet design.

It's pretty great. Takes a few episodes to get going and the ending arc drags hard, but overall a good show.

Do you prefer your robots with pupils or without?

"Real robots" shouldn't have pupils.
>>
Without. I like when the face looks less like a person(Zaku, GM) or looks like a mask(Mazinger, Getter Robo). I think the Gundam heads look too "Hero".
>>
>>15043392
Depends on what the design is trying to convey
With Getter or something like Giant Robo, the pupils work because they imply sentience, the robot having a will of its own. And that's the implication given off by the context of the show as well. For Getter in particular, I do like how it started off without pupils and then the later ones gained them as they were powered by more and more Getter energy.
This also works the other way; overtly sentient robots like Braves and Transformers do seem a bit strange since they have very robotic eyes in most cases. That's why its ironically a bit easier to understand SD Gundams as sentient.

Your great, great great, great 11 year old granddaugther from the future traveled back in time(highly against the law) to give you a giant robot for your birthday, knowing how much it meant to you.
Pic related is what you got. An A.I will help control the other two units.

What sort of weapon would create slowly moving (sub-light-speed), discrete, plasmoid projectiles?
I see these things all the time but they're rarely explained.

Guess you're sorta right, but the plasmoid projectiles, when fired on the surface of a planet, never have curved ballistic arcs as if they were bullets.
They shoot in straight lines.
