Yes, I know - whoops. I looked at that later but decided not to correct myself because I CBF.

Eruntalon is pronounced 'Er-Run-Tah-Lon'. As far as I know.

Well... yes and no. Remember that back then all Transformers were toys adapted from other robot lines as Transformers (Macross, Dorvack, Microman, Diaclone, Beet Gadol, Mechabot-1 etc.). Is Jetfire a Valkyrie? Technically no, he is an Autobot Transformer, which is an entirely different concept from a Macross Valkyrie. Jetfire is no more of a VF-1S Valkyrie than say Optimus Prime is a Car Robot Battle Convoy or Roadbuster is a VV-54 AR Mugen Calibre or Megatron is a MC12 Gun Robo. :/

Toywise they're nearly the same (only cosmetic differences) but conceptually they're nothing alike. Valkyries are not living self-aware sentient robots! :)
