Re: Mystic Mechs?
I think the first is Poseidon from Babel II, although I don't know enough about the show.

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Mecha Thread Mk I
] So is there any information on these units? I can't find names or profiles on the official site. Also will these be made into model kits? They're on Words section , slthough the text isn't up yet. From Japanese Site, they're on just minor MS just like Kapell-Kuu. (And seriously, why bother cover ...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Mecha Thread Mk I
Interesting. Both Heindree's and Zowort Heavy's gunpla manual note that the standard model of these MS (Heindree and Zowort) use components with lower grade compared to their military models (Heindree Strum and Zowort Heavy), with Zowort Heavy make it clear that the two are uncomparable (Zowort Heav...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I
S2 start with five Duel in row, and they end trivially. With Sophie's words, I guess Duel will be hit by So Last Season trope. I like how they pretty much pass the open campus event like it's slide show from a recap episode and the plot keep moving on otherwise. Guess they're aware there's no time t...

Re: Heat Weapons
Phantom from Crossbone Gundam Ghost can use its flame sword as a heat sword, but that's just a secondary function to reduce energy usage (the thing just has cooling problem). I'm pretty dure that if we look hard enough, we'll find that some of those mixed-build mobile suit from Crossbone Gundam Dust...

Re: Aile or Sword Calamity?
Sorry, I meant heavy bombardment. The manual say its issue is to adapting artillery-focus unit into flyable.

Re: Aile or Sword Calamity?
Bump. Because Aile Calamity's gunpla manual reveals some fun bit. 1. Supposedly, the original idea of Calamity was to made three variants based on the first three striker packs. But Azrael demanded heavy bombardment unit and so that one rolled out first (notice that Rena's Sword Calamity actually ha...

Re: Railgun Type Weapons
Fun trivia.
In Mika Akitaka's MS Girl Note, Gundam has her hyper bazooka upgraded to rail gun with G-3 armor. Guncannon also has rail guns from start.
Unfortunately, I don't think we'll ever got translated detail about this series.

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I
Well, I actually like the show so far and regardless of its flaw, the plot hook about Aerial's secret is interesting enough.
Plus, Kazama Iroha's reaction to the show is very hilarious.

Re: Railgun Type Weapons
For whatever reason, railguns were relatively rare in the mecha genre until the mid-90's and kind of faded into obscurity again at the end of the 2000's. Almost every Earth mecha was armed with railguns in the Macross II: Lovers Again OVA (1992), they're mentioned in passing in Turn A Gundam and a ...

Re: Railgun Type Weapons
Think about it, I think the first animate MS equipped with rail cannon (not counting the shot lancer) seems to be Gozzo from Turn A Gundam, and no other suit use it. When the Earth Militia modified it into Godwin , they naturally don't have such weapon and replace it with a mundane cannon (the offic...

Re: Railgun Type Weapons
Probably worth to note that aside of Dainslef, all Pluma (Hashmal's lackeys) are also equipped with a railgun, and Bael has electromagnetic gun in its binders. As McGillis notes, l railgun shooting normal ammo is still legal, if borderline, weapon. So the last UC mobile suit armed with railgun is La...

It's been confirmed that, as of the start of the 2nd half, Delling is still alive 2 weeks after the Quetta incident & is currently at the Benerit Group HQ with Miorine. It must get awkward when she receives those three daily e-mails. Would be cool if we see Mirione space out and Suletta snaps h...

Re: Railgun Type Weapons
Note that the Zeon Remnants are surprised by the range of Atlas' railgun. IIRC, the dialogue suggest that sniping from that distance is impossible with beam weapon (under atmosphere, I guess, it should be doable in space). Of course, it's Thunderbolt. So it might doesn't matter at all... BTW, from F...

One sad and ironic part of EXAM is that it's noted how Moses was like a father figure to Marion at first (mentioned in the illustrator's comment of the old manga, and there's Marion's flashback in EXA manga).

Re: Mecha observations from G Gundam
Mermaid is especially interesting in that, according to an article on Gundaminfo, Neo Denmark made several aquatic/amphibious MF during ots development, also acquire some of older MF like Kappa Gundam from Neo Japan and Gundam Octopus from Neo Greece. One have to wonder what were they thinking.
