Hehe, only Mobile Suit Gundam was before Mobile Suit Gundam Zeta series wise. Though there's also "Advance of Zeta" which is about the Titans testing several mobile suits/armors, etc.

Wait! I was actually talking about the movie Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory which provided a backstory for the rise of the Titans! :p I tried watching every series, ova, and movie that had to do with the U.C timeline. But also every other Gundam except SD.

^Oh yeah, how could I forget about that. Well, I was only thinking about the full series with my previous post. Because in that case, there's also "Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team", "Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket" and "Mobile Suit Gundam MS IGLOO".

No, no! I love em dude! :p It was one of the side stories I fell into most interests with. He came a long way up in 12 episodes. :p

^There has been plenty of things going on. Though I've been busy with school and other personal things regarding my family. I was also getting bored of the reposts from Gundam Guy's blog. The thread basically turned out to be a thread where we'd post stuff that's been posting on his blog without having discussions about it.

In the March 2008 issue of Animage magazine, Chiaki Morosawa explained that a plot outline had been created but she had fallen ill due to cancer and required continuous treatment. The project has been placed on indefinite hiatus, with Morosawa asking that fans please continue to wait. So yeah, there's nothing new regarding that project.

Same thing goes for Origin, there's no news about it other than the things that have already been posted here.

Though there's been loads of news in the Gunpla world ever since this thread got quiet. Lots of MG 1/100 Gunpla is going to be released next year and many of those are UC Gunpla (A HUGE PLUS!). Among those Gunpla is even a MG 1/100 Sinanju Stein which I'd LOVE to get.

Though I'm first planning on getting all the UC Gundam from Amuro, Kamille and Banagher Link their time. I already have the RX-78-2 and the Zeta Gundam. The following ones will be the RX-178 Gundam Mk-II, RX-93 Nu Gundam Ver. Ka, Hiyaku Shiki, ZZ Gundam, Unicorn Gundam and a Rick Dias.

I wanted to have a shelve dedicated for only UC "Titan" (the ones that had lots of meaning in their respective series) Gunpla.

Yeah how did your build go? For the Zeta? You've still have to post those pics! lol. I on the other hand.. just don't have anything to build. But if I was I was going to go build the MG AGE-2 Double Bullet.. whenever they are going to release it. I'm not giving my hopes up yet.

^The only picture I took while building it is the one that I showed. It turned out pretty awesome though but the decal on the chest is a bit messed up. I touched it too many times while trying to find a proper pose for the Gunpla, which made parts of the decal disappear onto my thumb :p It was pretty hard to find a proper pose for the Zeta Gundam. Though it's now standing next to my RX-78-2 as if they're seeing something horrific happening while having their beam sabers ready to go into battle.

I'll take a photo of it when there's more daylight in my room.

^True that! Can't wait to see it with panel lining though. I know it's a prototype unit so it's supposed to look pale like that. But panel lining would make it look even more awesome IMO.

I hope they illness is eased, they've done an amazing job and I wish they could continue producing so many ideas that I'd love to explore, especially in the U.C timeline, although Unicorn is doing amazing on that part.

Kinda want that PG 1/60 Gundam Astray LV, it's so gorgeous, only because of the color ways, forget LV itself. I honestly adore the Banshee than the Unicorn. I might work with building my own Gundams once I move out!

^The UC timeline is the one that I find the most interesting as well. If they make new stories set in UC than I hope they're not going to follow Gundam Thunderbolt's bloated weapons. They should also have the same character style and whatnot as the ones before Victory Gundam. Victory Gundam almost looks as if it's said in a different timeline unfortunately.

Though Tomino new project "G-Reko" is said to be set 1000 years in the future of UC Timeline.

    • Google Chrome is killing all uBlock Origin bypasses, Microsoft Edge, Opera to follow

      "Of course the easiest solution is to switch to uBlock Origin Lite if you want to remain on Chrome, as it is MV3-based, but from our experience, uBO Lite does not seem to be as good as the original non-Lite version" In my experience uBlock Origin Lite does the job for normal everday home users. When they kill that we get to watch Firefox and Brave get a boost in user market share.

      Block by DNS ad blocker! I dare you! I will even layer unlock Origin, on top of my internal DNS, if I need to and I don’t even block ads today (I really should but this type of behavior makes me angry). I suppose I could also just be lazy, and add the flags myself, back to each release (it wouldn’t be that difficult).

      Wonder what MPs have ties to these privacy/verification/data harvesting companies that are going to step in this time. Last time under the Tories half the cabinet had fingers in the pies, heck even the PM and his wife at the time was working for silicon valley, probably made a fortune.

      Google Chrome is killing all uBlock Origin bypasses, Microsoft Edge, Opera to follow by Sayan Sen For a while now the transition away from Manifest V2 (MV2) to MV3 has been on-going and it looks like it is entering its final phase of deprecation, at least, in the case of Google Chrome. A recent discussion thread in the w3c WebExtensions Community Group GitHub repo has highlighted how the latest and upcoming versions of the most popular browser are expected to be its final releases with support for MV2 extensions. Chromium contributor Andrey Bershanskiy shared details about recent Chromium changes and according to comments from Google engineer Devlin Cronin, Chrome has now started removing the flags that previously controlled MV2 availability. kExtensionManifestV2Disabled, the Chromium feature flag that allowed controlled disabling of MV2 add-ons, is now completely removed, which means you will likely no longer find uBlock Origin in your browser extensions list. He wrote: "The kExtensionManifestV2Disabled feature has been default-enabled for over a year. Remove the feature and the effectively-dead code. ... Any tests that relied on being in the "warning" phase (i.e., with the kExtensionManifestV2Disabled) for their sole behavior testing are removed, since this stage is no longer reachable." Cronin further explained why MV2 extensions are no longer allowed in supported Chrome versions as maintaining the associated functionality indefinitely is no longer possible. He cited growing technical difficulties and implementation complexities as well as security concerns. He wrote: "MV2 extensions are no longer allowed in any supported version of Chrome, and we are removing support for them and the associated functionality. We won't be able to provide / maintain this functionality indefinitely due to the complexity and tech debt, as well as the security risks it entails (we've actually found a number of bugs that are specific to MV2 lately). Of course, other browsers can continue supporting these if they so desire. Unfortunately, we won't be putting code behind a compilation flag ... We won't be removing all the MV2 code wholesale right away, so many of these things will continue working for awhile (but they will go away eventually, and some may go away sooner than others)." What this essentially means is that the tricks and bypasses that were used to keep MV2 extensions like uBlock Origin and others alive will not work any more on Chrome, or at least not for very long. For example the Windows Registry mod that could extend MV2 availability will cease to function after Chromium version 151. Here is a rundown of the changes coming in the final such releases of Chromium releases: Chromium 150 lost ExtensionManifestV2Disabled option Chromium 151 will loose ExtensionManifestV2Unsupported option Chromium 151 will loose ExtensionManifestV2Availability option Chromium 151 will likely loose AllowLegacyMV2Extensions option Other Chromium-based browsers like Opera and Microsoft Edge could soon follow suit too. Although it is not specified, Edge began disabling uBlock Origin back in February, and Opera could also stop the functioning of MV2 add-ons, even though it had committed to support MV2 for longer in October 2024. uBlock Origin developer Raymond Hill (gorhill) apparently stated the following: "For Opera I did submit 1.70.0 rather late, but this was weeks ago. A while ago I received an email from Opera that they plan to abandon MV2-based extension so maybe they are no longer allocating resources for reviewing such extensions." The email which developers like Gorhill mentions was received from Opera last year. Here is what it seemingly said: Hence for now the only Chromium browser that seems to be on-board fully with MV2 support is Brave, and perhaps Vivaldi as well. Meanwhile if you want to ditch Chromium browsers entirely then Mozilla Firefox is an excellent alternative as MV3 and MV2 are both supported. Of course the easiest solution is to switch to uBlock Origin Lite if you want to remain on Chrome, as it is MV3-based, but from our experience, uBO Lite does not seem to be as good as the original non-Lite version. Source: w3C (GitHub repo) As an online publication, Neowin too relies on ads for operating costs and, if you use an ad blocker, we'd appreciate being whitelisted. In addition, we have an ad-free subscription for $28 a year, which is another way to show support!
