Debut: Macross M3
Designer: Shoji Kawamori
Design inspiration: Neo Glaug, Roiquonmi Glaug
Note: Shoji Kawamori initially developed the Neo Glaug for Shoeisha's Macross Plus Game Edition for the Sony PlayStation from the original Roiquonmi Glaug of the first Macross series. Kawamori then extrapolated backwards from his Neo Glaug design to create the Zentradi and United Nations versions of the Variable Glaug.
