It's cool, but I'm not even going to pretend I know what the hell is going on in it. It's like he planned out a new 50 episode series, and then crammed it down into 6 minutes.
Hope someone subs it soon.

ReiGun said:Holy shit 30 years? Wow, I had no idea this franchise had gone on for so long. I've been thinking of getting into Gundam lately (I've never watched a full series before, but I have seen a few eps here and there), but I have no idea where to start. So what say you Gaf? What the best series for a Gundam newbie to start on?
Man that's a lot of choices. I've a few bits of 00 here and there, so maybe I'll do that first. I'll definitely check out those movies though, and work my way from there. Thanks man.Snaku said:If you want something recent that you don't need a lot of back story knowledge to enjoy, Gundam SEED or Gundam 00 are pretty fair shows. Being a toku fan, I'm sure you'll dig them for what they are.
If you want the real meat & potatoes, watch the original Gundam movie trilogy (or the TV series if you have the time), and then move on to Zeta Gundam and then Char's Counterattack. From there, you can pretty much watch anything UC, though most would recommend watching Turn A after you've seen most UC shows and a few AU shows like Gundam X, Gundam Wing, or G Gundam.

Beowulf28 said:So is Victory gundam any good? I haven't watched any of the later UC stuff after F91.
So I'm guessing it has a higher death toll than Zeta?Blader5489 said:It's kind of a mixed bag. The show certainly has its good points, but the fact that Tomino was severely depressed at the time really hurts the writing (it's not like Evangelion, where the director being fucked up enhanced the show).
It's far from the worst Gundam series, but it isn't the greatest either.
Wow.Snaku said:New pics of the MG Astray Blue Frame Second Revise!

The battles were exceptionally awesome. Uso was really creative in using the multiple parts of the V Gundam and the enemies actually shotBattleMonkey said:Victory Gundam was fantastic, one of my favorite of the UC
donkey show said:Plus, I started work on a functional SD Gundam in LBP as a 30th Anniversary tribute!
:lol :lol Dammit, another game that I'm buying just because it has Gundam stuff in it. Very well done.donkey show said:GUNDAMUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!
I've been on a huge ass Gundam kick for the last couple of weeks now starting with playing Gundam Senki. The game is surprisingly really fun, especially with the Efreet Nacht.
Anyway, to follow up on the Gundam kick, I got word that my XN Raiser addition has been sent to my house. Time for some ridiculous add ons!
Plus, I started work on a functional SD Gundam in LBP as a 30th Anniversary tribute!
I properly added the pink beam blasts and other little details. Still working on the beam blade, but I'll get it done soon.
And Gundam X and G Gundam are my definite fave AUs.

yeah still around, expensive and difficult. Snapfit toys/kits are way more popular these days, but the effort to build a resin kit is worth it imo, the put any plastic kit to shame.hteng said:havent seen resin kits in years, didn't think they are still around, pain in the ass to build, i've only managed to built one led mirage from the FSS series but gave up mid way. Expensive and time consuming delicate task, arg..
Deadly said:Does the Astray side-story still exist? I thought it was over ages ago. It was the actual interesting side of the Seed universe.
Apharmd said:Nah.
It's still alive as a zombie. The days where Astray churned out sweet-looking designs to make up for its painfully weak storyline are gone. Now all they're doing is continually revising designs into uglier and uglier iterations. The last real Astray sidestory, Frame Astrays are just utter shit. Feast your eyes on Blue Frame Third, because apparently Blue Frame Second was TOO COOL.
Deadly said:Wow those are pretty bad. I was wondering wtf was going on with the Providence look-alike. What happened to the awesome models though like the Gold Frame?
TreIII said:Looking over this thread...it only reminds me that much more of how I SO want that PS3 "Gundam vs. Gundam NEXT" rumor to come true.
Love the Vs. Gundam series.
:lol Glad I could push you over the edge.Trakdown said::lol :lol Dammit, another game that I'm buying just because it has Gundam stuff in it. Very well done.
I wasn't a part of LBP GOTY for nothing. =P I love Gundam and sidescrolling shooters like Valken and Metal Warriors to not try to make something in a similar vein. Wait til you see my Big Zam when it's complete.7th said:I didn't know that was possible!
