Wrong, the Predacons did appear in G1 (season 3).

Sandrum posted a number of photo-realistic renders in his gallery. The gundams are easily recognizable, but I'd like to know the source.

A while back I also found some awesome renders of Exia & Dynames. These aren't photo-realistic, but they're wonderfully detailed. I'd also love to know who made these.

I don't know about the first set which looks like someone tried to emulate the style of the set that features various Gundams as if they were part of the real world, but the second pair and many more can be found here.

Can someone give me the DL on this? http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i19/r ... 307666.jpg

I know its Kamen Rider, but what is this exactly. It looks really cool, is this the next show after Decade?

These are from AL.Place, the guy who made these also did some renders of the season 2 units.

AFAIK, this is what some people on 4chan speculate to be the next rider after Decade based on a black silhouette in a picture that was released recently. So whether it's a shop or the actual deal is still up for speculation.

A fan creation. IIRC, it was made when people were speculating what Mr. Bushido's new black mobile suit with red trim would look like. This was one of several ideas that were produced before the Masurao was seen on screen.

Re: The Official "Identify This Mecha" Thread Ver 1.0

Does anyone know what series this might be from?
I know it is named X-Milion and the brand on the box is Shining Blade DX but I couldn't find any other info. I'm thinking it might be a model series, but I thought I would check just to be sure.

It's the Shining Blade series apparently, by Atelier Sai, I think it was a video game and figurine company? Found no info but it might be from a game or standalone figure.

All I know is that its from Advance of Zeta and is probably one of the Hazel variants, but I looked through all of them on mahq and none have that goddess as the v-fin.

It's actually the RX-121-3C Gundam TR-1 [Hyzenthlay], just that it has a different v-fin in the cover and can be seen here too.

Thanks! So it can have different V-fins equipped? I noticed that some of the Hazel variants have a larger forehead for the V-fin so I'm going to guess those have the goddess there to?

I'm not too sure what exactly you mean by the larger foreheads, but if you're referring to the high-performance optical sensor unit that units like the [Hazel Custom] w/Sniper Unit, [Hazel Owsla] and [Advanced Hazel] possess, then no, they do not, to the best of my knowledge, ever equip the Goddess motif v-fin that the [Hyzenthlay] has.

I've seen other pics depicting this gundam. I know it's based off of 00, but I would like to know if this appears in any manga or if it is just a fan art. If it is fan art could you tell me who drew it?

Please and thank you. ;)

Yeah thats what I meant by bigger forehead. Sorry for the lack of a better descriptive term. I haven't looked into Advance of Zeta all that much. But thanks for the clarification. :mrgreen:

Like ShadowCell says, it's just fanart.

But here's the artist's site.

Can anyone identify the ship in this screenshot from G Generation Wars. I've had a suggestion it's from Turn A but can't find anything on it.

Re: The Official "Identify This Mecha" Thread Ver 1.0

I'm almost positive it is the Neo Japan Mobile Fleet command ship, as seen in those various screenshots from episode 46 of G Gundam (Which, AFAIK, is the only time it was shown). The two upper shots seem like a dead match to me, what with the guns and overall shape of it.
