Robotec?

[A.S.H.]

Macross 7 maybe, but that's cause Macross 7 was written by Japanese Pop Idols who went mad with power.

That aside, let it be known that I fucking love Robotech to death. Hell, you know what that is to the left there? That's a VT-1D Trainer Valkyrie/Veritech/Variable Fighter (it's gone through more name changes than a con artist), admittedly with somewhat disproportionate features, but it only cost $5.

Robotech is currently available on DVD in three nifty wifty box sets, each containing a full saga, the Macross Saga, the Southern Cross Saga, and the New Generation. They have also released the original version of each of the three anime series that made Robotech, those being, Super Dimensional Fortress Macross, Super Dimensional Cavalry Southern Cross, and Genesis Climber MOSPEADA (I would tell you what that stands for but that would be at the risk of looking like a bigger dork than I have already made myself out to be).

For a good anime that seems like Robotech, and you don't need to know a lot about the original Macross to enjoy it, check out Macross Plus, which has a wonderful message, that Pop Idols will one day try to take over Earth.
