Not to mention, that any licensor would also have to shell out as much or possibly more for the music licensing rights to the show (which, in fairness to Harmony Gold, runs a close second as a reason ''MacrossSeven'' has not been released in the US -- it would be obscenely expensive for anyone whose name is not Disney or Viacom to license completely), making it unattractive to most of the anime distributors in America.

** Yuichi Nakamura, who voices Alto, is also the voice of Tomoya from ''{{Clannad}}'' and Graham from ''{{Gundam00}}'', and there's some places where you half expect Alto to sprout blond hair.
*** Alto really did feel like Tomoya in a mecha setting, specially since one of his love interests shared some similarities with Tomoya's main love interest in Clannad (Both adorably shy, and end up coming out of their shell almost entirely thanks to Tomoya/Alto; both are trying to get onto a stage; both have trouble remembering the past...).
*** Also, as this show ran between seasons of Gundam 00, fans of that show also noticed how visually Alto resembled Graham's best bud and mecha designer, Billy Katagiri. There was fanart that depicted Billy and Graham doing a fusion dance, and thus becoming Alto.
** Sheryl's Seiyu Aya Endo voiced Miyuki in ''LuckyStar'' and Kinue in ''{{Gundam00}}''. Not quite as recognizable due to the range of roles (and talent of the actress) but there are moments of similarity between Kinue and Sheryl.
*** Naturally, during the release of figures where the Lucky Star cast cosplayed as Macross Frontier cast, Miyuki ended up becoming Sheryl.
*** Some of her {{Lucky Star}} castmates also appear in minor roles Fukahara Kaori and {{Hirano Aya}} play two of the three bridge bunnes and Hirano Aya also does double duty as Pixie Squadron pilot Nene Rora (aka the pink haired one).
** Mikhail's VA, Hiroshi Kamiya, is [[{{Gundam00}} Tieria]] from the same, and generally sounds like what Tieria would sound like if he [[TheStoic actually had a sense of humor]].
** You guys missed KikukoInoue as Grace? the "Goddess" of all Voice Actresses. (For those who don't get the pun, Belldandy-Ah My Goddess) [[spoiler:Though as of how things goes on for her, she's more like [[GuiltyGear I-No]] reborn]]
** Katsuyuki Konishi, who voices Ozma Lee here, has voiced several prominent robot-show roles, including [[TengenToppaGurrenLagann Kamina]] and [[GaoGaiGar Volfogg]]. The latter is particularly notable in context of Mac F as a few times when Ozma has had to sound formal, he ends up sounding almost ''exactly'' like Volfogg.
