Delete all. This kind of excessive detail belongs on Wikia. None of these articles have demonstrated notability through
significant coverage. Wikipedia is not a free web host for fansites.

Merge all to List of Macross vehicles as the "Macross" fictional universe uses its transformable vehicles as stars of the shows, and highly profitable marketing toys. Most of the Macross universe vehicles can be thus merged (and trimmed shorter as necessary). Tag for expansion to cover the real world merchandising results (sales, penetration, marketability, trademark infringement, etc). --

UPDATE-SMERGE all tovariable fighter which is missing the merchandising/tpys and real world information. NOTE a "merge" is not a simple cut-and-paste, editorial control is implicit in the process, meaning that not everything needs to be moved. --

Delete all. Merging several long but cruft pages would create a longer cruft page that would still fail to conform to the policies mentioned by the nominator. A summary of notable toys could be included in the main article, which presently doesn't cover any franchise material like toys. But such material would need to be referenced to secondary sources. Otherwise this type of content is simply advert even if written by fans; see
this for more explanation on the matter.

And by the way, the poorly titled
variable fighter page is the top-level article/list for the Marcross planes. So we don't need to create a new one. Given the sourcing there, I don't see why sub-articles are justified for many of these.
