I have a feeling the Leos will eventually come in blue. And that said "East Asian Forces" Leos will be web exclusives and incredibly cost-prohibitive to obtain.

Goddamit all.

The Space Leos were purple weren't they? I hope they release TV version Heavyarms, it would be cheaper and better then the MSIA version on Ebay right now.

Yeah, the Space Leos were purple. The basic Leo Ground Type came in green or blue.

Yup purple. Being that we are seeing Altron, it's probably only a matter of time before we see Shenlong, Sandrock, Deathscythe Hell, Deathscythe, Heavy Arms, Tallgeese I, Epyon and Wing I.

the MSiA! Heavy Arms was okay for its time but we NEED an update! That one had limited mobility for the legs. I'm actually surprised we're seeing Altron before Shenlong, iirc Shenlong was used more by Wu Fei.

Talisman · 03-30-2012, 04:27 PM

I can't decide if I should be more excited about the Duel or the Nu.

Geez, they'll probably make every mobile suit in the entire Gundam universe into an RD by the time they get to Sandrock - seems like that suit always gets the tail end of things. A separate EW version with OVA/film cloak would be nice as well.

Have to have that Nu Gundam though!

I think it's because Quattra...

sucked.

I mean his suits, especially the EW custom KICKED ASS, but as a character he was lame.

Plenty excited for NU AND Sazabi! CHARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!

I find it weird that we have yet to see his Zaku II. WTF?

Hah, I actually do agree with all of that. Sandrock as a suit was always my fave from Wing and among my top faves from the Gundam universe as a whole. I never really cared for Quattra.

I went back and tried watching Wing again and at the first EP, I just couldn't stop laughing - don't ask me why 'cause I wouldn't be able to tell you. Was just really funny for some odd reason

Oh, and didn't Char have a personal Gelgoog and Z'Gok as well, or was that someone else - I'm sure it was red though....can't remember!

jestermon · 03-30-2012, 06:23 PM

So how much would a leo be?

Probably around 30, plus the cost for shipping. But the Robot Spirits grunt suits usually go down in price after a while.

Correct. The only other pilot to run around with a red Zaku II and Gelgoog was "The Crimson Lightning", Johnny Ridden.

Who was prone to fits of rage if confused with Char.

I respect Gundam Wing for being the 1st series I latched onto but at the end, while I still dug the designs, I felt the series and characters were overrated. Honestly its popularity imo was due to having a large female fanbase. There's probably no other Gundam series with as much female fans.

Katoki's feminine EW designs are cool, but then when you compare them to his Sentinel designs, I dunno to me, the Sentinel Gundams come off as more impressive. Plus each Gundam Wing suit was built around a few central gimmicks. If Heero misses all his shots with his buster rifles(which was only a handful), he was screwed. They look cool but are gimmicky.

Nonetheless I definitely want me some Gundam Wing Robot Damashii SIDE MS.

Char also piloted the Zeong towards the end of MSG0079. In alter continuities he also pilots a red RX-78(Casval Gundam). In Zeta Gundam he had a Rick Dias and the awesome Hyaku Shiki.

I dunno. I know an awful lot of female SEEDlings.

I thought he was a good character, I hated his suits though, save the EW designs, those were amazing.

He was no Treize though, that guy rocks.

Honestly, as do I! I just hope they make it look as cool as the animated version of gundam coming out.

"MY god IT's the Red Comet!!"
"AGGHHH!!! it's the CRIMSON LIGHTING!!!"
Followed by angrily destroying every ESFF ship in sight.
So many fond memories of ecounters in space...

Shin had great dialouge with him, went something like....."So! You're the great Char aznable the red comet eh? Heard a lot about you!" "I'm the crimson Lightning!" "Sorry Char, thought you still went by red comet." This followed by angry screaming, funny stuff.

I liked many of the gundam designs, particularly the Mercurius, Vayate, Taurus, and Tallgeese variants. Hoping we get them in future releases!

I Still think they're some of his most impressive designs! It's the coolness+ nostalgia

Waiting on that C.A. RX 78

Anybody else see the Ultron coming? I thought it would be seeing as how his nemesis came out first, kind of completes the set. Guess this means Tallgeese and Epyon will be coming next, probably in reverse order. EXCLUSIVES, no doubt, Epyon will be so expensive.

On a side note, anybody ever see those tiny red unprecious gemstones that're really bright? They look really cool, and they use them on pewter figurines for the most part, wanted to glue one in the mono eye on my Damashii Exia repair, if anybody could give me a name, that'd be sweet!

nakobass · 03-31-2012, 02:44 AM

I guess no one liked Sandrock or Quattra. I thought they were OK, but just plain compared to the other Gundams and Pilots. Trowa and Heavyarms were always my favorite. Wufei was cool, but just crazy and really unstable, I wasn't surpriced at all he was a badguy in EW.

Gundam Wing hit that great balance between Pretty Boys for the Girls, and Cold-Blooded Killers for the Guys.

I guess. Honestly I preferred the more "realistic" military-type UC series, like 08th MS and 0080. But then I never saw much of Wing, since just before it came on I had to move to a different cable area that did not carry Cartoon Network until late 2001.

I still loved the Mecha designs though, especially Wing itself. The "Bird Mode" just completely seals it, hence why Zeta and Wing are two of my favorite suits and my go-to MS for Dynasty Warriors Gundam.

Have you seen EW heavyarms? It's crazy cool. Yeah, suppose you're right about wing, but Heero was really weird in the beginning, and the english voice acting failed miserably for some characters.

Yeah, plus 8th ms team had Shiro and he was ****in' crazy! Did a suicide run into a prototype zeon, and ripped off his own arm and beat the enemy with it. I was laughing so hard when he did that.
