It's kind of a funny thing, really. Hardcore Robotech nerds are going to be scrutinizing every second of Shadow Chronicles for signs that Harmony Gold has messed up their beloved continuity. I love these people—I like to call them "continuity pornographers." They're so fixated on details, like whether Space Station Liberty was supposed to be in the solar system or out in deep space, or what side of the moon that ALUCE was supposed to be on, and so on, that you have to wonder if they're able to enjoy the show at all.

But here's a "continuity" error of a different sort. At 1:00:25 into the film, Vince Grant turns to Janice, Ariel, and Scott to ask them a question. First we see them in long-shot, then it jumps to a close-up. And what an interesting change we see in Scott's outfit!

When next we see him, a few minutes later, he's back in the uniform again.

Props to Justy from RDF Underground for pointing it out in his review, and Darkwater from The Unofficial Robotech Reporter for telling me exactly where it was.
