Thread 23366226

Light Guncannon uses Luna Titanium for ease of production. Feddie pilots are generally poorly skilled and rely on sheer numbers. Saw combat at Solomon and Luna II. Can't tell if they were available at Odessa or Jaburo. Maybe only a small sampler? Was the prime UC RGM-79 GM considered to have been formally deployed during the Battle of Jaburo? Seems as tragic as the GM being a cannon fodder with no onscreen kills back in 1979, though Shiiko did pilot one, and unrealised potential like the prime UC Gelgoog due to late deployment.


Aside from the Anno draft scenario book(e.g. Sleggar, Gihren MA doctrine, Pegasus 2 and 3), we haven't had any worthy lore until now. Hopefully we will get more lore in the future unlike the Great Mechanics Seed Freedom book that offered nothing new at all. (No power sources of Rising and Black Knights, just regurgitating Gunpla fluff of Muu's Murasame having limiter removed and ZGok being a private asset rather than national)

>>23366226 (OP)
She is Mari, Mari Iscariot.

>>23366226 (OP)
Nothing here

Bokata Haru was Shiiko's colleague during the One Year War. The gun is a beam spray gun with low output(but still enough to destroy a Gundam hammer)

The lance thrusters compensates for some poor maneuverability, akin to the shield booster of the Hazel.

No mention of timing of development and adoption.

>>23366259
Lance houses three railguns and the tip could penerate electromagnetic shields. Not sure how this characterises the Bigzam's I Field, maybe the I Field could block railgun rounds?

Shield fires hide bombs, not missiles.

>>23366226 (OP)
It makes me wonder if the Federation could still have won the war with Light Cannons if Granada Fleet did not attack Luna II with Bigzams.

Many previous sources did say Federation was exhausted post Abao a qu and were relieved that a treaty was signed. In the 50 episode Tomino memo, Novelisation and The Origin manga, the Federation's fleet at Abao aqu were either defeated or almost annihilated.

>>23366279
https://www.mechatalk.net/viewtopic.php?p=264274#p264274

Federation lost their whole fleet in the 52 episode plan, The Origin also had it similar but through using the giant Dolos carrier.

The novelisation had Char taking over everything in the end.

>>23366266
The Design works book also mentioned the 3 port railgun. The whole lance is an anti Bigzam weapon.

The antenna on the Gyan's head is meant to be a CIWS, similar to the VF-1A from Macross.

>>23366585
>>23366266
>>23366259
>>23366253
I always thought the Gyan was silly, but it's one of the few suits in Gquacks that I liked.

>>23366266
I-Fields are magnetic, this is a dedicated anti I-field weapon. Further reinforcing that either Hakuji or Gyan itself was designed for combat against Big Zams rather than Federation forces.

>>23366766
I am guessing that YMS-15 may have been halted during One Year War, but Kycillia reinstated it with the lance post One Year War as an anti Bigzam MS.

It is clearly noted as a "Kycillia Side" MS in the design book, at least narrative wise.

>>23366585
A railgun that could one-shot a Bigzam is pretty strong. Feels more like a tactical weapon.

It could also fire in burst mode due to having three barrels.

>>23366226 (OP)
>Pegasus 2 and 3
We see a number of Pegasus-class in the series proper.

>No power sources of Rising
Wasn't it confirmed that they were battery-powered?

>ZGok being a private asset rather than national
Basically an "UNKNOWN" machine affiliated to Terminal for covert operations.

>>23366253
Where did you took the Haru from?

>>23367389
Her namesake is stem cell biologist Obokata Haruko.

Bocata's clan battle entry name is Hal(Haru).

The model kit manual fluff states that those colours on her Gelgoog have been personalised for her.

It has beam claws. They are beam emitters.

Bocata's Gelgoog is 2 tons heavier than Shiiko's. Maybe the magnet coating reduced its weight.

>>23367428
that's... random

>>23367434
I really like how Hambrabi truly feels like it's descended from Guncannon lineage here. The transformation usage is a complete opposite of the original, MS mode's beam pistols are full blown cannons and what on Guncannon was a secondary sensor pod on the chest is now a full blown monoeye.

>>23367434
One of my favorite GQX designs. It's too bad it didn't get to do anything in the show, I would've really liked to see those claws in action

>>23367469
It seems like wrist guns from video games were ignored either as they weren't used in the 1985 anime.

>>23368151
Nah Yazan used it at the end when running away from Zeta (Uber Autism form). It's just using the beam sabers as guns.

Is there any information on the Big Zam? And why the Big Zam never received any upgrades despite being 5 years old already?

It's really weird seeing Brand New Psycho Gundams running around, but the Big Zam is still the exact same since the One Year War.

>>23368181
Such a waste...

>>23368189
>The bits were supposed to have beam weapons after all

>>23368227
Isn't that just the beam redirection?

>>23368227
Personally I like it more, and find it more frightening hurling the armor pieces around at such high speed normal people cannot defend agaisnt that. And they can still reflect the beam cannons from the arms and has an I-field so it still can attack from any angle.
Really like how monstrous it looks from that perspective.

>>23368242
Could have worked if this anime was 50 episodes and we saw a gradual upgrades in technology that allowed this to happen. 12 episodes is too little. Going from guncannons to super Psycho Gundams with telekinesis is too much of a leap.

>>23368248
I kinda agree that should at least have 25 eps for more stuff to happen but I'm still pretty happy with the show and enjoyed seeing the designs from the show.
No Psycho Gundam, Hambrabi or Kikeroga gunpla were also a huge let down.

>>23368189
It wearing a bikini

>>23368254
If you're cold she's cold. Let her inside your colony.

Just finished the anime.

The assassination of Giren was so lame!

I thought Kycillia was pulling a Darth Vader and force choking Giren's mouthy assistant for her disrespect. That would have been cool. Then we find out it was poison. Lame.

How come Giren had no other mobile suits except Big Zams? Surely there could have some suits flying patrols.

>>23367428
>>23367463
You want rando,? Until now I thought her name was Bocata as in the Spanish word for sandwich

>>23369022
Power levels are all over the place with Psycho Gundam being stronger than Kikeroga. Shiiko's Gelgoog being holographic is a nice choice. Seems like the Gelgoogs are only marginally stronger than Doms and Light Cannons.

They named the green Dom as Tokuwan's Dom, probably this was before they cut paste all those green Doms and green Gelgoogs in episode 8 where MQuave was overlooking the Luna II battle from his bridge.

Here is vol.1 for reference

>>23369034
So Doo, Gates and Bask are all Federation.

Shiiko, Gaia and Nyaan are non-affiliated.

>>23369069
>They named the green Dom as Tokuwan's Dom, probably this was before they cut paste all those green Doms and green Gelgoogs in episode 8 where MQuave was overlooking the Luna II battle from his bridge.
I'm pretty sure that Tokuwan's Dom was mentioned in the GQuuuuuuX movie as one of the green Doms exiting the White Base's front hangar door, back then it was unclear if Doms in this timeline were green or followed the classic color scheme

>>23368241
No, look closely at the different shots of the bits, it's projecting from a designated portion of the bit (the small red ring).

>>23369069
>Power levels are all over the place with Psycho Gundam being stronger than Kikeroga
Practically speaking, it should be. It has several technological systems the Kikeroga doesn't have and has actual full on psycommu, not psuedo-psycommu. It had an actual I-field and seemed to have more firepower. It was just piloted by a dumb kid who was going berserk.

>>23369474
The Gundam was commonly known by the public as a Zeon MS.

As per usual, the operator matters more than the manufacturer. Even MG model kits had Aegis Gundam designated as ZAFT MS and olive Marasai as Neo Zeon MS.

>>23369474
Both Gundam and Guncannon are confirmed to be made from Luna Titanium. It doesn't mention how costly it is compared to existing materials. It appears to be a new material according to the Light Cannon blurb that sets a new standard, maybe akin to Gundarium Gamma.

The Guncannon with its Luna Titanium and heavy armour can take many hits and will cost more than the Gundam as mentioned in the notes here.

>>23369474
the specs here are different from the original, too

>>23369493
Wow, those missile pods and grenades are examples of the hardpoint weapons, hopefully we will get HG of these when they make a side story concerning the Federation side, especially Sayla.

Maybe we will get a pbandai HG Guncannon much much later. The runners on the Light Cannon don't facilitate for the twin cannon setup.

It may be a matter of the winners writing the history books, but they said the Gundam is based on Zeon tech with new tech imbued. Features unseen on MS up to the Zaku type include beam weapons, head vulcan, sensor dome, luna titanium.

It also unwent two rounds of modifications by Zeon.

The Operation V data were mostly lost due to the Pegasus bridge being destroyed.

>>23369528
It makes me wonder what new tech did the Dom bring about.

>>23369528
ah, basically the "we invented mobile suits so the gundam is really OUR invention" cope

>It also unwent two rounds of modifications by Zeon
one would have been the red paint job and the fitting of alpha psycommu and elmeth bits, what's the second modification?

The V-440 cartridge(equivalent to the learning computer?) was used on the Gundam and recognised as superior, therefore Zeonic Corp replicated it into the WG-X22100.

>>23369549
WG-X22100 became the most used combat use installer device during the One Year War/Zeon War of Independence due to its versatility and completeness(well made).

After the war, the WG-X22100 device is compatible with almost all MS types regardless of Zeon and Feddie origin.


It makes me wonder think that Zeon replicated this installer device swiftly at the last months of the war, installed it onto all existing MS and thereby improved their performance.

Not sure if Light Cannons have this.

I think that is all the GQX lore we have so far. The Foolypedia page from ep 3, the Gunpla manuals, and director/designer notes from the movie booklets.

Reason why you can't fight without an installer device (combat OS)
・The energy transfer trigger to mobile armaments won't switch on
・The safety device for avoiding contact accidents won't be disengaged

According to FOOLYPEDIA’s explanation,
V-440
A cartridge used in Gundam
(Probably equivalent to an educational computer in the GQuuuuuuX world)

WG-X22100
A complete imitation of the V-440. Enhanced performance even in Zeon MS

It’s believed that what Nyaan was carrying was that unofficial copy

>>23369582
>using hard disk to activate combat feature
How many data in those hard disk?

>>23366226 (OP)
Luna Titanium is able to withstand zaku machine gun rounds as commented by Char according to the Anno scenario draft where 01 Gundam engages the 02 Gundam at Side 7. 01 Gundam also has head vulcan in this draft.

>>23368189
I thought this looked odd but bottom left has changed my mind.

>>23369546
The fitting of the extra elmeth bits

>>23369549
Zeon copying the learning computer to all their MS should have been what won them the war. Most databooks credit the Learning Computer as a major reason for the Federation's victory because it was turning brand new MS pilots in GMs into Amuro-lites. The GM wasn't amazing on its own, but Amuro's data could make it deadly against anything Zeon had to field.

>>23368242
>And they can still reflect the beam cannons from the arms and has an I-field so it still can attack from any angle.
Could it? Couldn't tell from the way Challia bull destroyed the bits and the Psycho Gundam with zero resistance

>>23370381
Chalia Bull in the absence of Amuro was the most powerful Newtype soldier in the OYW. Chalia knows how to fight funnel like weapons and where there shortfalls are, even training Machu later.

>>23368254
Isn't that essentially Puru Two's pilot suit?

>>23368252
>No Psycho Gundam, Hambrabi or Kikeroga gunpla were also a huge let down.
Challia is the most popular character in that show, iirc, so there's a chance we'll get a Kikeroga at some point.

>>23371015
There was a CGI model of the classic RX-78 in the show but nothing for the Hambrabi and the Psycho Gundam armored state.

>>23368192
Best redesign in the show desu. It's instantly recognisable, it adds a lot of little details, it's creative, and it makes a lot of engineering sense, considering that all three legs are identical units. And the little emergent details like skirt cutouts too. And it moves its connection with the number three from pilots to itself, they even disbanded the Tri-Stars for it.
Shame that it jobs so hard because they decided to bring bazookas that don't work. And that it'll likely stay confined to GQ and never be expanded on elsewhere. It's a perfect evolution of good old Dom design.

>>23371070
I kinda agree that giving it bazookas with physical ammo was a let down (And mostly because I wish it came with a beam bazooka like the original HG did). If only it had a stronger generator to support beam weapons, or had other back up weapons like machine guns is sometimes seen with.

Everything else yeah I totally on board with. Perfect Dom evolution. Now Imagine the Dreissen version of this. Unf.

>>23370461
Full honesty, I dont give a damn what anyone says, I love the aesthetic of this timeline and its sorta realistic and functionalist approach. Something you could see being built today and streamlined just so that it works. But still bulky enough to retain its power and presence.
I do hope we get a continuation somehow to see more machines adapted to this style.
(And specially I like the compound eyes on the gundams. Thats killer)

>>23371070
>makes a lot of engineering sense, considering that all three legs are identical units.
what? how do the front legs mount on then shouldnt one be backwards or rotate significantly more

>>23371111
>its sorta realistic and functionalist approach.
its less realistic or functional than the designs from the 70s anon, giving it abdominal muscles and teeth with less armour and random exposed components is the opposite of realistic and functional

>>23371115
in the business we call it 40k brain and the prognosis is terminal

>>23371082
why don't the knee guards move with the knees and just stick up awkwardly

>>23371115
>its less realistic or functional than the designs from the 70s anon, giving it abdominal muscles and teeth with less armour and random exposed components is the opposite of realistic and functional.

I mean, the Gundam can't realistically move with the armor of the original, both arm and leg movement are heavily restricted, which is why the figure has to add more joins/breaks and can't stick to the original animation design.

Although either way, I think the Gquuuuuux redesign was more going for "bizarre/monstrous" looking than actually practical (just consider the four purple eyes on the face).

>>23371158
I like how every MS has a more aggressive face such as the Gundam and Guncannon. This is the first time we've seen a full redesign aside from Gundam Evolve. All renditions of OYW don't help them make them move militaristic if the Gundam and GM still have babyfaces.

I love all the 1979 Okawara Yasuhiko style art, but GQX Yamashita redesigns feels like the first time that tried to deviate from the classic silhouette and faces.

Model kits, video games and Thunderbolts renditions tried to make OYW MS more industrial like, but it doesn't help if they still have their babyfaces.

Earth side MS have always looked babyface with the exception of the Strike Dagger and 105 Dagger.

The most babyfaced GQX MS is the Gelgoog but it also looks monstrous like a skeleton or Zombie.

>>23368181
>no exposed beam cannons in box form, so it really was an air conditioner disguise
I kek'd.

>>23368181
>>23368189
Cockpit in chest or head?

>>23371941
Left side of the chest.

>>23371941
In the head in the prototype, but upper left chest in the final version. Makes sense, too, because the Federation didn't have the Zeong to crib off of. So no chance at survival for the Doobie.

It still feels weird that she died so suddenly. Now that the series is done and over, it stands out as oddly harsh for GQuuuuuux's tone, sort of like Barara's death back in the original airing of GReco, especially when considering Doobie was way younger and less culpable for her actions than most. Maybe it's just another callback, sort of like it's taking the shit at ZZ for the disposable Ples. On the other hand, GQX is pretty brutal towards its antagonists (mostly because Machu doesn't get a lot of fights to practice her brand of screw-the-rules pacifism on).

Second, is that the psycho gundam seems to have been built with OOParts, like the other Gundams, which leads to questions of where the Feds got the stuff. There are still some lingering questions over how Deux discovered the kira-kira, considering it only seems to kick in when you have newtype shit from the other side to ping off of. Maybe the Feds have someone from the other side at the Murasame labs.

>>23372015
It could be that the OOParts are something that the first Zeknova shit out. Like when the Rose of Sharon teleported to Earth maybe some pieces of it fell off.

>>23369022
>>23369103
It turns out that Tokuwan's Rick Dom is unique as it has a green head instead of red. I think either this will get pbandai before Chalia's. In the Anno draft, red Gundam and Chalia's Rick Dom did MAV tactics while they were fighting the Solomon garrison in place of the long range Bit attack harassment.

>>23372121
Shoulders and skirts are green.
If that's the case, there is a low chance for the no name version to get an HG release.

No name Gelgoog may still have a chance as that mould hasn't got a pbandai variant yet.

>>23372144
The emblem on that one Zaku in the back looks familiar. I thought it was the one on the Zakrello but that one has two hearts.

>>23372155
It’s the same emblem yeah, that’s Demitri the Zakrello pilot. He was in Tokwan’s team in the TV series, went out to avenge him and died like a bitch.

>>23372159
Neat.

>>23372015
Barara had an escape pod in both versions, they used the same footage from TV
She never shows up again either way so she might as well be dead though
G Reco had more named character deaths than GQuuuX although it was only secondary characters eating it

>>23371669
>>23371111
I like the visor faces but I can't stand the Red/White Gundam. It looks too goofy to me imo

We were robbed

>>23372921
I thought Gundam GQuacks is the worst design of the series, but then GFreD was shown.
This shitty Goog however takes the crown for the most hideous fanart.

GQ verse Kampfer conversion from Stickler Studio.

Rick Doms outnumbered Zakus at the last stages of the war.

Hard to tell if it also applies to GQ verse. There were slightly more Rick Doms than Gelgoogs at the Battle of Luna II.

If Federation pilots did not have enough time to gain combat experience to produce favourable results. The choice to mass produce an armoured Light Cannon may be better than a GM with a totanium shield, as the latter requires more skill and also a Ball for mid range support.

>>23374896
It all comes down to the lack of Balls...

>>23369015
Fred looks cool in SD. i know people hate on it because "MUH EVA REFERENCES" but think it is the best GQX MS.

>>23371112
They are symmetrical, the massive high-mounted foot compensates for sided-ness. Rear leg looks like a backpack but it's mounted to the pelvis so it is technically not one.

>>23371082
It would be been nice to have seen one with a beam weapon using the port on the chest, some nod that zeon got beam weapons off the ground faster.

>>23376800
Would've liked to see something similar to the Seed Dom where it still fires physical projectiles; but also includes a barrel that shots beams on the underside.
Even if it runs out of ammo, is not totally defenseless at long ranges even if the beam is weaker.

>>23368252
>No Psycho Gundam
God I hope someday but not gonna hold my breath that it's soon since it took 20 years to get an HG Psycho Mk.ii.

>>23372144
You know there are rips of the episode, right?

>>23369528
>It may be a matter of the winners writing the history books, but they said the Gundam is based on Zeon tech with new tech imbued.
I mean it kind of was in the broad sense that I think they used captured Zaku's to kind of get an idea of how MS work. But it's not like it's a Zanny wearing a fancy hat and made of better armor.

That said I like allot of this world building mechanical detail stuff.

>>23366259
>>23366266
>>23366766
>>23366781
Given the i-Field worked on the projectiles from lances I think the box may have been printed before they settled on just giving it beams.

Otherwise someone had the thought of "Wait if the i-fields of a minovsky craft system can HOLD UP A BATTLESHIP why can't they stop solid projectiles? ...And then didn't apply that to melee attacks.

Box being wrong seems the simplest answer.

>>23366766
I-fields aren't entirely magnetic, since Megaparticles are magnetically neutral (But minovsky plasma in beamsabers is of course ionized and very magnetic)

A side story om Sayla and Shiiko wpuld be great. I am suspecting that Shiiko's machine may use a beam spray gun and an alternative backpack cannon for close range combat.

shoulders feel more distinctly ZZ-like rather than zeta and the body overall is pretty stocky, though

This show killed off every single interesting character.

Looks like Zeta Plus and Light Guncannon to me.
ZZ would've been way stockier, considering that it would have to be able to split into three Core Fighters.

>>23383252
The MS is fanart buddy...

>>23367434
Are they supposed to be two different versions ?

>>23383500
No, both are rough sketches. Yamashita did the sketches and Kim cleaned it up into the final version on the official website.

>>23366226 (OP)
Let's assume that luna titanium on the Gundam and Guncannon were expensive material.

>>23369493
It is even commented on here that the Guncannon would cost too much for mass production as a heavy MS.

I guess we could either interpret that as luna titanium being used in a different way to make it easier for mass production. It could be a variant like Gundarium Gamma, or simply reducing the armour compared to the original Guncannon.

>>23371165
>>23371167
>>23371170
I really like this and how it approaches it from the angle of being developed from the guncannon.

Have this Alex or NT-0 rather. I like how it uses the psycho face and faceplate makes me wonder if Augusta would have sent this to Murasame like they sent the NT-X over to them.

>>23387674
Federation hates the Gundam(face) in GQ verse as noted by Gates Kappa and the blindfold of the Psycho Gundam.

I think a Federation GM will end up looking like the 01 Gundam as the 1979 GM did say that the visor was from the Guncannon.

>>23387914
>Federation hates the Gundam(face) in GQ
Of course they hate it. It's a slap in the face for them that it was stolen and used in comb

>a Federation GM
But there is a Federation GM already: the Light Guncannon. It even has the "RGM-79" designation.

>>23387936
>Of course they hate it. It's a slap in the face for them that it was stolen and used in
combat against their own developers by Zeon's top ace.

>>23387914
>Federation hates the Gundam(face) in GQ verse as noted by Gates Kappa and the blindfold of the Psycho Gundam.
Yeah that's part of the reason I like it too. To many fan designs just copy the Gqux RX-78 face and slap it on any gundam they want this it fits more because of what you said also the guy who did the design also had a blurb mentioning pilot brainwave feedback so maybe his interpetation of the weird head was something newtype use related too.

Meant to post this link with my OG post too but forgot.

>>23367463
Nah, you're just stupid.

Most Gundam names have origins like that. Look up who Haman Kahn gets her name from

>>23388389
This only makes me think "the Federation (and fan artists) need to think of a new design paradigm, ASAP".

>>23388484

Or, better yet, have the Federation completely collapse already and have more Earth factions for fucking once in UC.

>>23372015
>It still feels weird that she died so suddenly.
I am 100% certain she was created only because they weren't willing to kill off Four or Rosamia for their Psycho Gundam cameo episode, that being their original intention but they changed their mind.

>>23388533
>Four
Nah, I don't think so. Four wouldn't be there without Kamille. Her relationship with him is half of her character. Rosamia makes more sense.

Let's hope that this is a sign for the Hambrabi(GQ) to get an HG next year.

I didnt like the lanky designs at first but they've grown on me a lot the last few months. They look great on the HG models with their range of motion. They really look like they can stretch really far. I especially like the swivel joint on the red Gundam's head on the HG, it feels like such an obvious feature so the MS can look forward while flying in space.
Yamashita's designs certainly have a more mchanical feel to them with the fuel tanks and the exposed guns and hardpoints. They look more like machines than toys.

>>23371111
>>23388793
Everything looks like a construction bot rather than military. The exposed hip joints come to mind. That's fine for civilian but the military probably would add something like skirt armor to protect such a weakness.

>>23388808
I actually like that it has no skirt armor. They were always badly designed in that they're one big plate purely on a hinge joint and if you've tried to move the legs of a gunpla too far you know it just pops right off. In universe, you'd have a massive metal plate being moved just by friction and gravity and it would be clanking against the leg every time it moves. If they put a motor just to move the skirt plates that'd be a ton of extra weight . The gundam would damage itself just by walking.
The small yellow plates just covering the joints being connected to the upper thigh itself seems much less restrictive and you'd have to shoot around a corner to hit the joint itself anyway.
Plus I think the idea of not having many weak points is kinda antithetical to concept of a giant humanoid mecha in the first place so just explain it away with saving weight to have a more nimble mobile suit that cant be hit easily. It just needs to be sturdy enough to not be damaged by infantry and smaller caliber arms. No matter how much your armor it, being hit by a beam weapon is an instant kill.

>>23371327
An actual gMS-v would be a revision of Yamashita's pre-existing Nu design

>>23388968
Nah, it wouldn't work in universe. Yamashita's Sazabi was a cameo alongside OYW stuff for a good reason.
Also, if hypothetical Nu would be made by Zeon it would be based on GQuuuuuuX. If hypothetical Nu would be made by EF it would be based on a miniaturized Psycho.

I just want feddie pilots to be Good again

>>23389136
Why would a Zeon Nu be based on Qux and not the RX-78? They have the schematics for both.

If there's a sequel I'd want to see an upgraded Qux and a Fred replacement that has a Gundamface again.

>>23389257
Because: a) Nu wasn't just based on RX-78, it used all the advancements since then and in certain way is more similar to Mk-II; b) none of gMS series, besides the Red Gundam follows EFF MS design, not Gelgoog, not GQuuuuuuX, not GFreD – it only makes sense that a hypothetical Zeon Nu wouldn't follow it either

>>23388740

Shiiko's Mav in episode 4

>>23388533
Either that, or a jab towards Zeta.

>>23394753
Why don't they like Zeta?

>>23371111
Same, it's alien yet realistic, and I'd love to see more remodels in this style.

>>23394784
They do.

>>23394784
Cute doo.

>>23403866
The freckles and poofiness are just too much.

>>23406160
For me it's the lil hat.

>>23368242
good lord everything this show has to offer is terrible

>Feddie pilots are generally poorly skilled and rely on sheer numbers
Without Amuro's learning computer data, I bet they sucked.

>>23368242
this is the best scene in the show

>>23366226 (OP)
Where are all the cool variants? I want White Dingo Lightcannon, Ground Lightcannon, Lightcannon Sniper, Lightcannon Command, Lightcannon Custom, Lightcannon Quell.

>>23367434
I like Ikuto Yamashita's designs, too bad hambrabi was just another jobber

GQuuuuuuX SuuuuuuX

I don't think GQux gives enough wiggle room to have whole fleets of cool ass MS-V suits like the OG timeline.

Did we ever find out what MAV stands for?

>>23434941
The word "mav" is a slang term used mainly among young people in the Showa era, and is an abbreviation of " mabudachi ," which means "true friend." "Mabu" is a more casual and vulgar word than "mabudachi," and carries the meaning of genuine, irreplaceable friends who are bound by a deeper bond of trust. It is a word used when you want to express an even more intimate and special relationship, emphasizing the depth of friendship and the strength of the bond, and expressing special feelings and relationships.

It is strictly friendship and does not include romantic relationships such as romantic or marital relationships.

>>23434941
Yes retard.

>>23403866
Thinking about Deux makes me sad.

>>23448725
Don't cry because it's over
Smile because it happened

Yeah, she's a Gundam character in a successful show. She will be making appearances in games and such forever.

>>23449306
Yes the 9 arcade game appearances that might show up in the west in a shitty port 15 years down the road.

I wonder what the ground type of the Cannons and Zaku's would've looked like. We mostly only saw space oriented stuff, so would've been nice to see some earth MS too.

>>23460716
sexy

>>23449991
I'll tell you. They look exactly the same but colored in sandstone browns

>>23465359
I'm fine with that actually.

>>23371111
It's an interesting reflection of modern design function with thin frames.
