by the way, space rangers has nothing to do with power rangers, it was a 1993 scifi series that survived about 5 eps

I want Lone Star's Winebago from Spaceballs. It is a pob ship as well.

And the SDF-1 as a POB ship

Bah beat me to it. Though I like the VF-19 more than the VF-22 (the production model of the YF-21). Just looks sexier. When I first saw the YF-21, I was shocked, it's almost a direct ripoff of a Dale Brown novel, Day of the Cheetah. Reconfigurable flight surfaces, vectored thrust for increased agility, and the whole alpha-state mind link system.

I have read that novel. Are you sure the Macross sada isn't older?

For me:
Starfury Nova
Starfury Thunderbolt (atmospheric two seater version from Season 4 & 5)
Shadow Battlecrab
Whitestar 1
Excalibre
Vorlon Cruiser
Some of the civilian ships looked awesome too.
USS Saratoga (Space: Above and Beyond)
Their fighters were fookin' cool too.

Just about anything from Battle Beyond The Stars.. It had some cools ships in it, despite being a rip off of Star Wars.
"Nell" would be a cool ship... and that capitol ship that was a cross between a corellian corvette and a star destroyer.
Maybe the Nestor... but then it'd have to be a POB ship with a minimum of 5 people to control it.
(Don't tell me no one else has seen that movie and doesn't think it's awesome... in a really bad movie sort of way)

I checked way back when, and the novel pre-dates the release of the Macross Saga. Not by much, but it does.
