The Official Gundam Build Fighters Mecha Thread Mk I

Winning Gundam isn't based on anything; the official profile outright calls it an original design.

Also, "Based on Burning Gundam rather than God Gundam" is like saying "Inspired by Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone rather than Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone".

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Mecha Thread Mk I

I still think it's mixed with referrence to Beginning J Gundam (which has "Burning J Swords" as signature weapon).

Just notice something, the gunpla on their team maybe just named after the builder's last name.

Fumina - Fu = Win(d)
Kousaka - Kou = Lightning

Now what left is Burning...I wish to see his name in kanji now.

His name is written in katakana, though. Maybe it hints at a possible "being from somewhere else" plot point? Say, a certain "other place" where we know a redheaded Gunpla fighter comes from?

Though now that you mention the name thing, his name is "Ka"miki.

Fast Japan is fast as usual on the fanart, but already we have an interpretation of what Non SD Winning Gundam might look like.

Ah, I mix his name with last name. Now, I think it make more sense than being tribute to American localization.

All their names are written in katakana though. In fact that happened with the original Build Fighters too.

And it's Kuramochi Kyoryu's, AKA Gundam Beast's main designer.

Yes it does.
As befits, I suppose, a machine built specialized in long-range shooting, according to the description I've seen.

So-
Lightning's long range support, Burning's close-range combat, what does that make the Winning?

Looking at it from an RPG/RTS perspective, Winning is the support unit

Well, they did post a scan that showed him clearly, so it's not like anything's being hidden anyhow.

Winning Gundam's Gunpla has yet to have a release date. I bet it will have a hidden ability to transform into a regular scale MS, which also makes it the first SD MS to be in the HG line.
