I’ve seen two versions of the book, both from 1985. I just got the one above. I’ll scan in the rest of the pages if there’s enough interest. What’s with the “humid climate offensive squad” on page 10?
The version below is on eBay. At least some of the content is different based on the sample pages on display.
Thanks for sharing…and please scan more!
lovely!
The Humid Climate Offense Squad is the old name for what was the Army of the Southern Cross Marsh Division. They are an environment-specific special operations forces unit (along with the Arctic, Apline, Desert and Forest/Jungle) that are part of the ‘Tactical Corps’ (old name for the UEG’s mechanized & motorized infantry units).
Wow. Thanks. It sounded to me like a bunch of mecha with body odor problems…
Yes scan whatever you got!!! 😀
I’ll be posting more from this book in 2014. Stay tuned!
This is so cool! I’ve been looking for images from this coloring book for ages, and after going through your blog and seeing all of the other nifty Robotech stuff (the giant cardboard SDF would look awesome in my grad student apartment, and the price would be worth my roommates’ reactions), and I’m kind of fascinated by the Women of Robotech TV ads. Thank you so much for posting all of this stuff! Your blog is really fun to read, and I’ll definitely be visiting again!
I want to ask, also- do many of the human characters get pages in this coloring book? I found some scans of Japanese Southern Cross coloring books, but I’m curious as to if there’s any Macross or Mospeda characters in the Robotech ones.
