In the mid-1980s, American gaming company FASA Corporation used the vehicle designs of the show for its "Battletech" miniature wargame and role-playing game. The first edition, then named "BattleDroids", actually included two Japanese 1/144 model kits from "Dougram". FASA was later sued by Playmates Toys and Harmony Gold USA for using designs from Macross (for example, "Valkyrie" fighters renamed "Stinger," "Wasp" and "Phoenix Hawk"). The lawsuit was settled, and as a result post-lawsuit Battletech products no longer feature the designs taken from "Macross". However, in the years since, the designs from "Macross", "Dougram", and "Crusher Joe" have since been re-introduced, Albeit with completely original artwork.
