Raxivace posted:Random question, but there's been a like a million variations of the 0079 story at this point between all of the games and comics and books and so on...have any of these alternate takes on the story ever featured Amuro straight up defecting to Zeon with the Gundam, and then explored the ramifications of that? One of the crazier timelines in the Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam game was the Zeon one where Garma doesn't die but comes back with Axis and Kamille is part of Titans.

I wonder if they are just going to reissue the HGs they already have and maybe put out a MG or make new models called something like ver. OAV.

I've read Thunderbolt up until the first big climactic battle and it's pretty good. It has done a good job of making me feel for both sides of the conflict and I really like the mobile suit design.

I think we know that Char and Sayla are just the figureheads in that picture with Ramba Ral being the true power behind the throne. Also I've always wondered if Sayla revealing her true past would have helped temper some of the Zeon rebellions that occurred after the One Year War.

They had a robot in X who's only weapon was a knife so I'm just going to pretend it's a callback to that.

Thunderbolt manga spoilers. The federation captain is still alive and has amnesia. She's a part of an evil Buddhist Newtype cult. Also there is a female federation pilot who has a sweet Guncannon and is a competent pilot.

Srice posted:Passive protagonists can be cool because when they finally do something of their own accord it gives that moment more weight. It's very much a case by case sorta deal, I don't find active protagonists inherently more compelling. For a not great version of this in Gundam we have Saji Crossroad.

I really hope this is a distant sequel to Build Fighters because I love that they spent all that time and money to make plastic move and then just decided that that was dumb and decided to just virtualize everything.

HitTheTargets posted:It's pretty weird that at some point they put out figures for this and Amuro was in second place. Someone liked the grunt soldier vibe of the GM enough to say that one of them was straight Golgo 13ing his way through the entire Zeon army. The Ace kill counts from the OYW are crazy high and make no sense in universe. The top Zeon aces have over 150 mobile suit kills. They only had like three months between the GM being introduced and the war ending.

The Notorious ZSB posted:I never considered Turn A as purely AU, it is the end point for any and all Gundam timelines was always my take on it. Get far enough down the line from any of those stories and you'll end up at Turn A. I need the Turn A remake where instead of digging up Zakus and Kapools they find a bunch of high grade gundam models and a painting booth.

Season 2 seems pretty easy to do. The antagonists aren't really heinous individuals and represent the government. You just have them resolve their conflict and team up with the main cast to take down the truly evil enemies at the end of the game, like how the Titans and Neo Zeon characters joined in V. There are plenty of SRW games that have you fighting against the world government for large parts of the game. IBO would actually mesh really well with 00 if they wanted to put them in the same game.

Arcsquad12 posted:08th MS Team holds significance for its aesthetic and grounded nature, which meant that for the longest time a lot of us held it up because it was at least trying to be different from normal gundam nonsense. I’d say neither IBO or Thunderbolt have the boots on the ground grunt point of view that people see in 08th. The main characters are ace pilots who tear through the battlefield and pilot tricked out custom suits. People like the Gouf fight because it is so one sided and an example of what it would be like to fight an enemy ace pilot which isn’t really how I’d describe the end of Thunderbolt.

LibrarianCroaker posted:What mobile suit was most purpose built for doing war crimes? I'm going to rule out anything from Turn-A since erasing civilization multiple times wins by default, but I don't really know what the spectrum is between that and like, the GP02 and it's atomic bazooka/wing zero's TBR scale of doing war crimes. I think there was a Zaku variant designed specifically to gas colonies.

The “science” in UC for mobile suits is that in space their limbs let them change their momentum quickly in ways that you can’t if you are in a fighter plane shaped vehicle.
