and

As in are they both the same gundam? or does Cherudim come later in 00.
Or did they change the names for some weird reason.
thanks!

Similar looking and from the same production series of robots, but not actually the same robot. There are little visual differences, such as the shoulder and skirt armor. The Cherudin is supposed to be an upgrade from the Dynames, I think.

Yeah, Cherudim is the upgrade, meant for Lockon, hence the similar features between it and Dynames(I guess you could argue that the Gundams probably came first, but if it were Power Rangers you'd know what I meant).

The Robot Damashii of Cherudim looks very cool. I love his bits. Every Gundam series needs at least one mobile suit with bits. Dynames is a little bit cooler to me though, as are most of the first versions of the Gundams in 00.
