Re: The Dawning of Dom

Not entirely. A Zudah did appear in part 3 of Gunpla Builders in non-CG form vs. Kenta's white Sazabi and the Beargguy before getting vaped by the Beginning 30.

Re: Queries On Super Robot Wars

There are still some issues in the game timelines, namely which of the different branching paths you take, but the major one is who you start OG1 with. I'm not sure if this is officially verified or not, but it's generally accepted that Ryusei's OG1 route is canon. Personally I believe that both ro...

Re: Gundam Virtue firepower and more

I think it would be safe to assume that they're tactical warheads with VERY high yields for that type. At least several dozen kilotons, quite likely several hundred kilotons. They could also be IRVs from a MIRV tipped ICBM. Those have a yield in that range, IIRC, and are small enough to be loaded o...

Re: Star Wars Episode VII

BB-8: Great droid, well thought out concept that actually works. (No, that's not a CG construct, that's an actual machine rolling around.) Very cute and likable, even if I have to restrain the urge to run after BB-8 and give him a kick. :lol: Hey! He's not some 2-bit Haro you can kick down the hall...

Re: AOZ Reboot: AMZ-105S Gulluss-S

I just wonder why designers have suddenly latched onto the Gallus, first in Unicorn and now here. Hard to say, but Marshmallow's use of it aside we never really see the thing used at all after Shangri-la. Rather odd for something that isn't a one-off unit like the Hamma Hamma or R-Jarja. If anythin...

Re: Gundam question: War crimes of the One Year War?

Where are the war crimes? Am I missing anything or is the OYW actually decidely different from its inspiration in this regard? Well probably most notably those that are directly responsible for war crimes tend to wind up dead before or at A Bou A Qu, so there's no one left alive to judge. Cima gass...

Oh Atra. You have so much to learn about actual male/female relationships. Then again, when has anything about Tekkadan been normal?

Re: The Official Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans Mecha Thread Mk

There have been four so far. Form 1 is equipped with the mace in the bracer. Form 2 is equipped with the Graze shoulder armor, and the smoothbore cannon. Form 3 is equipped with the Graze shoulders, the Schwalbe Graze grappling claw, and the mace, I believe. Form 4 is the Teiwaz upgrade with the Ba...

Re: Frozen Teardrops ends officially!

That's when we break out the rationale/logic of the mega particle canon and shoot/bash them over the head with it. It's so refreshing when they hit that particular wall and their arguments officially mean nothing.

Let them riot. We have tear gas, tasers, and mace.

Re: The Official Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans Anime Thread Mk

Geez Amida, that isn't really a subject to discuss with Atra. I guess age of consent in Teiwaz is pretty low, possible along the line of pre-1920 America. I doubt she was saying that Atra go out and get herself a husband right away. Just that one day, she'll make a good wife to someone. And we see ...

I must have missed it somewhere, but why are there no beam weapons around? Obvious answer is the nano-laminate armor, but what exactly does that do that made beam weapons so neutered that no one uses them any more? We know very little about this world, but what makes you assume they even developed ...

Or maybe the whole thing is a giant joke and we skip to Heero waking up after his first attempt to blow up the Wing and him rubbing his head and going, "Wow, that almost felt real there for a second." So that scene when Trowa asks what it's like to self-detonate, and Heero says "it h...
