I wish Unicorn was a weekly episode sort of thing though.

...and why does this thing look so weird, yet so awesome?

And the more i think about the movie... the more I think about the canon and I just want to pull my hair out on how they ended it. I just wish Setsuna was more happy about being surrounded by Feldt.. by human beings. Or that Feldt made Setsuna more human. I hate how.. he passed on Feldt. on Marina. Even on Nena. God damn you Trailblazer... getting my hopes up with Feldt crying in the trailer and her mature haircut, the possible relationship building in the S2 final eps, the epic boss scene and the creation of a new World Order. Instead they decided to poop on my dreams with beam spam, lame aliens, and flushed it all down with Silversuna and his GILF addiction.

/rage

Yeah..

The movie never happened. Sure, I don't want a plot armor, fairy tail couple of Kira and Lacus. Nor do I want it to be hush hush like Hero and Relena.. but don't freaking go robot on me Setsuna. Screw it, i'll take the new toy kits and peace.

To be fair, it was stated in the movie that Setsuna grew distant(again) as he continued to develop as an Innovator. I'll grant that point but at the same time, I do think that the seed of a relationship between Feldt and Setsuna that was set up near the end of season 2 was wasted.

SD Gundams make me sad. I want you to contemplate for just a moment how epic that video would have been if the machines weren't super deformed...

Are you picturing it?

.....

Go change your pants.

On a related note, i just picked up the Arios designer kit. I'm contemplating a repaint as the pastels are really.... pastelly in person. Any suggestions? I was thinking red, sorta like the ascalon, but more along the color scheme of the Saviour, in place of orange, but not sure about the other colors

I won't be buying the game as I don't own a PSP or a Wii, unfortunately.

The video wouldn't be as epic to me if it didn't involve SD Gundam designs. In fact, it's epic simply because it has SD mecha carrying out a high intensity space battle. It's like watching knock down, drag out brawl involving cute and cuddly teddy bears.

I won't be buying the game even though I own a PSP and a Wii, because I think SD Gundam is just stupid. Some of the best designs in mech anime, distorted because someone thought that would be funny!

Numerous people do think it's funny since SD Gundam and chibi style has been around for decades. Not only is it funny to many but also lucrative seeing as how SD Gundam exists in numerous gunpla, manga, and anime products.

There's still a place in my collections for SD. I've got most of the main character Gundams in MG, 1/144 and SD displayed in one shelf.

MG is the new grade they introduced last year right? I can't go for the $200 set so this might be a better alternative.

MG (Master Grade) is actually quite old, it's 1/100 scale.

The new grade they introduced is RG (Real Grade), similar details to MG, but in a 1/144th scale.

Funny how they came out with MG 00 Raiser AFTER 00 Quan[t]. Rather late IMO.

I already got my PG, so I'll pass.

That's the $200 one right? That looks really nice but a bit pricey for me. Just imagine if they ever made a Trans-Am version.

in my case, it was a well-earned gift to myself for enduring six months of crap and getting my annual bonus.

As for a trans-Am versions... who knows, they've done more than one variant of the Strike.

The big announcement is MG Epyon. I'm a little surprised they went Epyon before Tallgeese, but it's a definite purchase.

Epyon, that fetish... odd Gundam. Looking forward to that MS..

I'm sure we'll get Talgeese though. I just wonder how many versions..

EDIT: found the teaser images. displaying em below

As unbelievably badass as this is, i have to ask... Why not Wing Zero or even Heavy Arms or Sandrock? They've shown us teaser images of those kits already. Sadly though, if they're giving us Epyon, i am seeing less of a reason for them to give us Tallgeese. If ever they announce Tallgeese, i'm probably gonna get banned for posting that 4chan stick figure shoving his #$%@ through his monitor

More MG Epyon goodness. I guess this is the KAI or EW version. Badass. Been a while since i've watched Wing. Also, 1/100 00 Gundam Seven Sword Metal Build (this thing is pricey. I'm confused. Model or toy?)

Epyon is an EW version like every other MG Wing release coming this year. The kits are all based on the designs in the manga.

The OO is a toy.
