How is it a retcon when that was the initial backstory given? In Zeta it just shows up with minimal explanation beyond 'hey we were able to get this for the Lieutenant'.
>>23378004 in side and databook lore, there are red versions of the Delta Gundam and Gundam Mark III intended to be given to Quattro but just never manage to get to him for reasons. Some cheeky mechanic also offers to paint the Hyaku Shiki red in one of the Gundam Evolve shorts, too.
>>23379374 Not him, but I the only thing I remember is image related, Competition of New Gundam -Red or White-, which is some kind of a short they played somewhere. The red delta ii was supposedly built for Quattro. I haven't seen this to know if that's true.

>>23379374 The Delta Gundam was never actually made. The Mk-III got damaged during delivery IIRC and it was already too late into the war to repair in time for the final battle.
Would Quattro having access to the Delta have changed the final outcome at the end of Zeta? He could have wave rider crash into Haman instead of tackling her.

Manga writers have used this excuse too much in their mangas. I'm sick of it. This needs to be banned. Its just a lazy reason.

Ask yourself this. Can you imagine Delta Plus defeating Quebely or The O in a head on fight?
I can see Char defeating Haman in Delta wherein he Wave Rider crashes into the Qubeley's back instead of tackling like he did with the Hyaku Shiki. Then maybe he still has enough fuel to join Kamille against Paptimus.
Chances are he dies against Paptimus for an opening to let Kamille to kill Paptimus

>>23388762 >Ask yourself this. Can you imagine Delta Plus defeating Quebely or The O in a head on fight? It's not really fair because Delta Plus/Delta Gundam are not newtype machines. They lack Psycommu. Meanwhile Quebely and The O are newtype machines. And not just any newtype machine, but newtype boss machines. I always felt it wasn't fair when people make fun of Char for not being able to beat them with Hyaku Shiki.

>>23388791 Delta Plus has a biosensor which is a mini-psycommu
>>23389829 The Banshee's newtype systems don't activate for Riddhe either until partway into his fight with Banagher where his potential finally awakens, he even complains about it during the fight
