Not really my calling, thanks... :P Hands that have been too much used to snapping and sanding down GunPla aren't exactly suited for the delicate job of using the scalpel and putting people under the knife... :roll: Well, as was already mentioned in other posts, Bandai has this habit of designing th...

My bad, I haven't watched enough Destiny to know such fine details, my doctor advises me against watching Destiny for my health... Ah huh... Anyone who has read mecha profiles in MAHQ doesn't need to "know such fine details", as you put it. And your doctor failed to advise you against pos...

(...and the Force Impulse, which has even less thrusters than the Aille Strike.). You do have a point, but excluding the Epyon, since it hails from another AU, the Force Impulse doesn't achieve sustained flight either. In fact, I hardly see them dog-fight enough to know which suits have sustained f...

For merchandise sales, aren't several feminine mobile suits big sellers? Course I guess it depends on your definition of feminine. The Palace Athene, Qubeley, Zeta II, Victory, and Vigna Ghina are some feminine-esque suits that come to mind. Just as long as it doesn't look like a Sailor Moon-esque ...

There's only so much you can take of her fawning over Seifriet before you're just annoyed at her even saying his name. Oh yeah, I hated that part too. But I guess they had to include that romantic side/element to Jeanne to maybe somehow "soften" the military aspect of the show :?: After a...

I'd like to add to the list Appleseed and Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross as well. In both series the female leads, Deunan in AS and Jeanne Francaix in SC (or Dana Sterling in the Robotech version) piloted mecha to one degree or another, and they were not the snotty teen crybabies types eithe...

Well, the BFG would have significant- make that VERY significant mass, and with the kind of arms the Virtue has got, it would probably be able to swing that very large mass at something approaching the speed of a regular saber swing. It WOULD break something with that kind of momentum (think of bas...

So, why not give the Shuffle guys at least one backup weapon each, or some extra attack in their alternate modes? Well, as mentioned, it is a Super Robot themed Gundam series, as such attacks should be as flashy and as powerful as possible, such that the opponent will be totally overwhelmed - pwned...

Re: G Gundam Shuffle Alliance mobile suits.

Not being a watcher of G Gundam but an avid reader of the profiles on MAHQ (thanks guys!), I've long wondered about the Shuffle Alliance mobile suits (King, Queen etc.). They LOOK formidable enough (more so than most of the Gundams, in fact, and their transformations are cool, but I've never been a...

Just what I thought too... Also the Lightning Striker was destroyed during testing (from overload or something), so that as far as it's prototype status, it is a failure. As such, I don't think ZAFT designers would still pursue a similar project that may not be as effective and failure ridden design.

1/144 HG is for space-limited action-posing lovers, 1/100 HG is for space-liberated action posing lovers. So if you are space-limited, go for 1/144 HGUC that comes from 2000 onward. But if not, go for 1/100 HG, but there will be no UC items there, just Wings, X, and SEED items. UC is MG exclusive, ...
