The most distinctive feature of the prototype Gundams developed by the Atlantic Federation. While active, this special armor nullifies all attacks by physical weapons, including blades, projectiles, and conventional explosives. However, it has no effect against beam and laser weapons , so most of th...

I was referring to the hard shields as opposed to beam shields, not grunt shields, also I was referring back to the Strike blocking the positron cannon and then the pilot still surviving? Lawls, next to Jesus Yamato surviving a flame bath that's about as ludicrous as it gets. Also blocking anti matt...

After analyzing the battle it presents ALL possibilities to the pilot which in some cases is death or in others complete utter victory.

The bio-computer though feeding the data into the pilot's mind, is actually different. It more than likely places the pilot's mind into the MS itself.

The normal shields must be seriously powerful too and their beam coating as well, though the MS are like butter against beam weapons. Also it doesn't really make sense for a beam coating designed for beams to work against antimatter...

They're definitely bigger that's for sure, the Fin Funnel shots that is Also I think people might be overrating or maybe taking the CE's so called "Positron" too literally. It seems like it's simply given the name for the hell of things rather than actually being antimatter sometimes, beca...

IIRC EX-S also had a mini I-field to protect the torso.

As for the GP02A I'm pretty sure the source of its protection was the shield as a major cooling system, and i think we can say it protected the GP02A from both excess heat and radiation though it's safe to say not the blast itself.

Akatsuki's mirror plasma capture would depend on what's being fired. Somehow I don't see it working on things such as megaparticles for the reason that megaparticles technically aren't free energy. I could see CE's beams and lasers being conventional charged/focused free energy weapons, then the Aka...

I've already seen it, I wanted to see if there were screencaps of one of the characters being crushed but apparently not.

There's also another one showing one of the pilots, the girl with the weird cat ear shaped hair torn in half with the spine hanging down.

Got pics of this death?

Also a lot of gruesome deaths don't actually have to be shown onscreen or even done the same way as in the original game.

If you really think about it in terms of marketing and popularity if the designs could go into a mainstream work, probably anime, it would be easier for it to become popular and then producing goods would become less hazardous and thus less expensive for us since the producers would create molds in ...

The Victory Gundam is out of the norm with its control setup, instead it has an arrangement of finger buttons set along a control handle that looks to be a part of thruster control.

Obviously not everything is/can be listed so simply without a debate or discussion.

For example, Gundam SEED is completely ambiguous about power OUTPUT and technically generation as well since they only give methods.

And if this really can't be posted here where is it supposed to be?

So what tools do you guys use for modding gunpla?

I don't mean just painting, I mean serious mods. Hobby razor saw, tilted blade wire pliers, a heavy duty exacto, a light box cutter, various sand papers, and some other stuff, no putty or plaplates atm and plaplates I doubt I'll use for a while unless someone can tell me where to get modeling plasti...

So we're discussing power sources...

Feel free to discuss any power sources that AREN'T explained. I'll start with something that isn't really explained, SEED. Flashy, all looks the same (all of it), generic labeling. Yet they're called beams. So what exactly are they? From my perspective they seem enough like realistic charged beams a...
