Quick rundown of the equipment listed for the Thrones on the official site: Ein - GN Launcher, GN Beam Rifle, GN Beam Saber, GN Shield Zwei - GN Fang, GN Handgun, GN Buster Sword, GN Beam Saber Drei - GN Stealth Field, GN Handgun, GN Beam Saber, GN Shield Pod, GN Shield My observations: Looks like w...

There already are Dynames variants from the official sidestories. The Dynames Torpedo and the Sadalsuud. The Torpedo comes from the same line as the Avalanche. What your friend showed you is, as already mentioned, just someone's modded kit.

I'll kill a critter if these three end up no better than CE's two trios when it comes to character. That means: no block words, no random shooting at each other, IQs significantly higher than 30, etc.. Three trios actually if you count Stargazer. At least in that case, one member made it out alive ...

Just because I missed my chance with the last thread regarding the AA Tieren: The SDF Macross called. They'd like their Destroid back. Seriously, I'm getting the warm fuzzies looking at the thing with the quad guns and radar unit. Anyone else reminded of that? I hope it gets a cameo like the Ground ...

FG 0 Gundam isn't new. They announced it as part of some contest or another (I think it relates to the upcoming DS game) but apparently it's not going to be sold normally. I'm assuming that HG kits of it will be released later, also on the assumption that the suit will appear again in the show to ju...

Given that his sister has been tracking down anything and everything related to the man, I think she might have picked up that her family was related to his by now if such a connection existed.

Those would also be Hong Kong bootlegs, so if Ascension bought a set he/she wouldn't be showing appreciation to the people who actually deserve it.

Protagonists who say they're going to retire usually find themselves exploring new career options such as being corpses in short order.

E-Carbon, which the major powers know about but don't use in their own machines. It's possible that some form of GN technology enhances the shields Exia and Kyrios use judging by the names, as well as Dynames' Full Shield.

The mech design I find most ridicoulous, is the Scorpio from Gundam Wing: Battlefield of Pacifests. IN its MA form it has two beam cannons/Beam sabers, a heat rod, and a huge shield attached to it. In MS form, it only has one beam saber/beam cannon, and thats IT. It loses 50% close combat ability, ...

The head's also slightly different, having those grooves running front to back like the other 00 Gundams (where the RX-78 had its vulcans).

Mostly what was stated: If you ignore the first two chapters there's precious little recognizable as SRW, OG-verse and Alpha-verse are kludged together with CE with no clear reason as to how they fit together, especially since SRW breaks all kinds of logic with regards to Gundam and we're supposed t...

I've only read Future War and I'd steer clear of that one. It's only got original characters save for a brief cameo by some Gundam heavies and two of the chapters are just character and tech specs that don't really mean anything (unless you're a SRW purist in which case you'll possibly develop spont...

Yaoi fans will jump on anything that supports their pairing and ignore anything that doesn't. Witness the existence of the Yzak/Diakka fandom, despite the latter having a girlfriend before GSD dropped that plot... or Heero/Duo despite pretty much everything between Heero and Relena, including their ...

There's absolutely no rhyme or reason to saber colors. Pink is traditional but I think we've seen every color of the rainbow at some point or another, either in animation or on kits. Don't try to read anything into it.

You'd think that by now they'd have figured out how to insulate the Kyrios so Allelujah's head doesn't explode every time Soma goes near it. A good old tinfoil hat would be enough. Maybe they don't know enough about what the HRL did to Allelujah's brain to know how to block the effects? I like how ...

That's certainly a possibility and I'm sure hoping for it since otherwise, Drei doesn't seem to have anything obviously going for it.

In context, he was thinking that Shenlong wasn't moving quickly enough to reach Corsica in time for the upcoming ceremony. Since nobody really knew the abilities of the Gundams at this point, it seems odd to assume that Zechs was capable of knowing one he'd never seen before could fly (despite never...

Speaking of funnels and frame-by-frame, those things the Zwei appears to be controlling do look like the funnels from the OP at a different angle. I still don't see the sense in making something that should be focusing on close combat (huge sword and all) also use funnels that should require either ...

His reaction when he realizes he's been saved by a girl (whose appearance in the promo creeps me out a bit) should be equally good. Alas however, it looks like Nena might not be the funnel-user we thought she was since Zwei actually looks like it's got remote weapons.
