A few familiar names indeed. Chris and Astonaige are obvious, but the Yashima Heavy Industrial is an interesting addition. Maybe Shoefitter is another term for test pilot or something.

Re: Engineers & Manufacturers of the RX Series

It's like looking at the credits to a movie. No special thanks or production babies?

I'm going to assume that you're right Wingnut, only because of the "If the shoefits" saying....and the V Project definitely fit.

But does this mean Christina more of a role with testing out other Gundam models other than the NT-1?

Is that one of the reasons that they used the term "shoefitter" instead of test pilot(s)? :?

Re: Engineers & Manufacturers of the RX Series

Hell if I know, that's just how I'm rationalizing it. For all I know, it may be a Japanese term that means something else entirely.

Re: Engineers & Manufacturers of the RX Series

I'm just kind of surprised they mention Agar with all the engineers like Mosk Han and Alph Kamra.
Sakuya: "Whatever. Stop lying and give up your schemes, now."
Yukari: (Which lies and schemes are she talking about? It's hard to keep track of them all...)
