Just posting an update for those waiting for the Shadow Chronicles to debut:
Kevin McKeever, operations coordinator at Robotech.com/Harmony Gold, was able to confirm in February 2006 that the pilot movie had been completed. The finished film was screened theatrically for the cast and crew on March 8, 2006. McKeever also stated in a panel at the 2006 New York Comic-Con that earlier discussions with a potential distributor had failed due to contract terms that Harmony Gold considered unfavorable.
No distributor for any medium, including DVD or television, has yet been announced by Harmony Gold, nor has any solicitation been announced in Diamond Comic Distributors' Previews magazine.
In an April 14, 2006 FAQ posting on Robotech.com's forums, Kevin McKeever explains:
Harmony Gold has been weighing various offers from highly respected distributors for ROBOTECH: The Shadow Chronicles. As part of these negotiations, Harmony Gold has mandated certain marketing and distribution goals (based on fan and market research) to be met for any such agreement. When a distribution agreement is reached a release date will be set by the distributor.
And....so thats where that stands. Movie is done, soundtrack is done, everything is ready to go but from internal talks WB who wanted to distribute it cheaped out or wanted to screw Harmony Gold
