^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.

I just hope they don't move on to a new Gundam where it'll be of 3 segments like Double Zeta. I prefer a little more Delta Gundam and 00. But that's just me, I prefer exotics mobile suits with futuristic features that have something to do with Quantum. But that's obviously 1/3 or 1/4 of Gundam's tradition.

Delta Gundam hasn't been in any of the UC series though, only Delta Plus and Zeta Gundam, which is based off of the Delta Gundam. I rather have them making a series set after Gundam Unicorn because the mobile suits from that UC year are awesome. Though if they'd do that, then they might as well make an adoption of Crossbone Gundam which could actually be pretty awesome.

Also, don't even put Gundam 00 and anything from UC in the same sentence, haha :p Gundam 00's story was great until they added aliens. I mean, it worked great for the movie and I still like the movie a lot. But looking back at what Gundam really is, they never should've added aliens to the Gundam 00 story IMO.

I mean the Hyaku Shiki. :p

Oh come on, you know how gorgeous the 00 is. :D But yea, I do have to respect the way UC is, from the very first season, there's nothing that can really compare to that legacy. :)

Crossbone, Crossbone, I don't know why, but Gundam X pops up in my head when I have a feel of similar looks. The mass produced I mean. I know it's an alternate universe, but something hit me. :/

It looked nice, but not as nice as the UC mobile suit. Also Gundam 00 QAN[T] looks loads better than the 00 Gundam. 00 Gundam looks good on it's own until it's Gundam 00 Raiser, which is too bulky for my liking.

Crossbone does share similarities with Gundam X but I like Crossbone Gundam better. Also, Crossbone Gundam is a well established story in UC much like the Unicorn manga, so it might get a anime adaptation of some sort in the future. Plus, Seabook Arno is in it under the alias Kincaido Nau so that could be interesting. It's still a shame that they had budget issues when they where working on Gundam F91.

And this is why this thread is reduntant: Only reposting stuff from the Gundam Guy blog and not actually discussing things.

Reposting for others to see. It's still news. Anyway, I really hope The AGE-2 DB will be addressed as an MG. Hope they don't skip over it and then wait 10 years for the re-release / anniversary to come out. *cough cough Seed/Seed Destiny*

I made that post because countless times it's just something that's been posted on Gundam Guy's blog without anyone getting a chance to discuss it.

Well, it would be 00 Gundam all over again if they'd start making MG versions of such marginal differences. They're better off just releasing the DB parts as a separate expansion.

well they did it for The AGE-1 (Normal, Titus and Spallow)

^Proves how much I keep an eye on AGE Gunpla :p Though Titus and Spallow are bigger changes to AGE-1 than AGE-2 Double Barrel is to the original AGE-2.

I sure hope they're not going to milk AGE like they did with Gundam Exia and 00 Gundam. We'll have to see though, they've already announced plenty of MG Gunpla and other levels of Gunpla. Personally, I don't really

Is this like a Japanese cartoon? Heard people say it before but no clue what it was. Thought i'd check it out

Yes, Japanese Cartoon is known as Anime.

Gundam is one of the most creative anime's on the planet.

    • Apple is expanding Private Cloud Compute beyond its own data centers

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Apple is expanding Private Cloud Compute beyond its own data centers by Pradeep Viswanathan At WWDC 2026, as part of the improved Apple Intelligence capabilities, Apple today announced that it is expanding Private Cloud Compute (PCC), its privacy-focused cloud infrastructure for Apple Intelligence, beyond its own data centers for the first time. Private Cloud Compute was designed to handle Apple Intelligence requests that are too complex to run fully on-device. The PCC system does not store user data and does not allow Apple or anyone else to access user requests. Last year, Apple also expanded its Security Bounty program with rewards of up to $1 million for researchers who could find serious vulnerabilities in PCC. Until now, Apple's PCC data centers were using Apple's own silicon. As part of the expansion, Apple is working with Google and NVIDIA to run new Apple Intelligence workloads on Google Cloud systems powered by NVIDIA GPUs. Apple will be using this new infrastructure to execute more demanding AI tasks while maintaining the same privacy and security guarantees of PCC. The new implementation uses NVIDIA Confidential Computing with NVIDIA GPUs, Intel CPUs with TDX, and Google’s Titan chip. Apple says it has worked with Google to build additional protections beyond a traditional confidential computing deployment. Despite the expansion to third-party data centers, Apple claims that its core PCC requirements remain unchanged, including stateless computation, no privileged runtime access, non-targetability, and verifiable transparency. The company highlighted that it will continue to control the PCC software stack, and Apple devices will only trust PCC software that has been cryptographically approved by Apple. To take security to the next level, Apple mentioned that it is maintaining an append-only ledger of Google Cloud hardware that is part of the PCC fleet. The company claims this will help reduce the risk of supply chain attacks. In addition to AI infrastructure, Apple also worked with Google to use technologies behind the Gemini family of models to build the next generation of Apple Foundation Models to power Apple Intelligence features across on-device and cloud workloads. As expected, for more demanding AI tasks like agentic tool use and complex reasoning, Apple will rely on the expanded PCC infrastructure running on Google Cloud. The expansion of PCC on Google Cloud will gradually ramp toward the full set of protections during the summer preview period. As before, Apple will also publish binaries for public inspection, provide research tooling, and give researchers access to live PCC nodes in research mode through the Apple Security Bounty Program.
    • Classic Outlook vs New Outlook — Which one do you prefer and why?

      By Bdpy · Posted

      my problem with outlook (new) is that it connects only to outlook.com. all connections to external providers goes through there. Got your mail server and want to use imap directly? no way... it adds a connector on outlook.com. last bug; if your email on an external provider if the same as principal email of your microsoft account, it doesn't work...
    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes

      It's the only reason I finally have an iPhone (for work) and enjoy using it so much that I'm tempted to move from android next time I need to replace my own device
    • WhatsApp slams Isreali firm, NSO Group, for trying to spy on its users

      So is Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, just to mention a few. What's your point? Everyone is a threat from their enemies' perspective. I'd say that Israel is only a threat to their immediate enemies like Hamas, Hezbollah and the Iranian regime, not to anyone else.
    • Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance

      By astropheed · Posted

      The government is not the good guy either. You propose 99% of people require that the government overreach and govern their freedom of information and privacy, while ignoring the government is made up 100% of people, of which 99% are (as you described) brain dead. You can't have both. The reality is Signal is absolutely right and the government is doing what it has always done. Ignoring that we are their boss and grabbing all the power they possibly can to make sure we aren't. Your (societies) ###### parenting is not reason enough as to why I can't have a safe platform for my data/information. Thinking the government is helping is precisely what they are targeting psychologically to take suckers like you for a ride. "Think of the children" was, has, is, and will always be a mechanism of control. In the rare occasion it's actually essential the mass consensus has always been there and it doesn't become a debate.
