it seems it was more of testing out well interventions would work then testing tech
Listen, not a year goes by, not a year, that I don't hear about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid which could have easily been avoided had some parent - I don't care which one - but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator.

Is this for serious? Because it's pretty sexy if it is.

Personally found it to be 'meh'. First, the only notable addition are the two Buster Sword IIIs. Then there's the part where the XN Raiser this time gets tacked onto the 00's back instead of the binders covering the drives, which actually bugged me more. So, what exactly was the reasoning behind the XN Raiser?

Guess we'll have to wait for the issue of the magazine.
I'm quite intrigued by the position of the clavicle antennae. They were supposed to help control the GN Field, but got relegated to the back (smack at the posterior, I think) in this iteration. And there goes the Drives' mobility too.

interesting, ascetically it reminds me of the Zeta Gundam. I must admit it's pretty cool

Looks like the R2's weapon is called the GN Sword Kai there, but someone'll probably wanna double check.

Heh, I had a feeling we'd be seeing a prototype of the Gadessa/Garozzo/Gaddess shortly. With the GN Mega Launcher and GN Field projector, it's more of a combination of Gadessa and Garozzo, so that's interesting how it split into two units for the "mass-production" version. And there's the Plutone's Core Fighter. Any guesses what GRN stands for? And for that matter, why would they switch from the Plutone's fighter to the smaller Core Fighter that the Gadessa and company use?

Re: The Official Gundam 00 Mecha Thread Mk XIV

Indeed, finally get to see where the lineage of the Garazzo/Gadessa begins. The GRM actually looks kinda neat with a bit of that Zeta aesthetic mixed in. Also quite tall, just like its mass produced brethren.

And as far as the GRM's name is concerned, I'm guessing from the description 'Generation of Reborn MS'. >>;

00F did pretty much state the Prototype Gadessa was coming, after all.

The little info box suggests GRM = "Generation of Reborn MS".

The model Page of Exia RII also mention it as GN sword Kai.I guess that's the final name.

Interesting.... so rather than simply telling us the Gadessa series are based off of Plutone, they give us the direct link between the two MS.

There's also mention of Garm, of Norse mythology?
The end of the write-up mentioned that the production GNZ series took their names from goddesses of Northern European mythology. Any idea what specifically?

It's amazing what a change of colour scheme can do.


And someone previously asked what A.C.D. stood for? I think it's Actual (or Armed?) Combat Deployment, taking a bit of liberty on the kanji used.
