On the Transformers note, It looks like Starscream, Skywarp and Thundercracker from the original series were based on Valkyries as well
Well, in my opinion, Skywarp, Starscream and Thundercracker seem to resemble F-15 Eagles more than Valkyries. Valkyries look more like F-14 Tomcats, only with a badass 80's Sci fi upgrade to them.
Anyway, on the Macross topic, the plot for Macross sounds simple:
Humans in the far future pilot badass Valkyrie jets that can transform into robots. They fight evil aliens that use robots that look like balls with two legs. XD
