Yeah I totally agree.. looks like they just ripped it off 00 and Zeta on those designs. I haven't be able to find the episode for Unicorn yet..

[Jamushroom Veteran]

It looks a bit more like Gundam Sentinel:

Though if you meant the 2nd Mobile Suit's 'Mobile Armor' then yes, that looks like Zeta Gundam's Mobile Armor mode.

And go check your PM.

[Razorwing]

Wow I did not see that coming. Awesome episode ... though it had a slow start in the beginning.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Yep, and now we'll have to wait till next year for the next episode. Btw, did you see Amuro Ray's cameo?

yep I did. Was wishing he'd come along and fight with Banagher some time in the future.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

That wont be happening for known reasons :p

News: Gundam AGE to Have Side Project Aimed at Grown-Up Fans

In the 19th issue of Futabasha's Great Mechanics magazine that shipped on Thursday, Bandai Hobby staff member Toshiaki Baba revealed that a side project of Mobile Suit Gundam AGE is now in the early stages for existing Gundam fans.

Baba emphasized that the project is for grown-ups, and that the staff intends to make it a "thoroughly dark" story that "even fans of [the first Gundam anime's] Universal Century timeline can be satisified with." He did not specify what medium that project will be in.

Looking forward to hear more about that :)

[Razorwing]

Just want to bump this.. THIS BIG MOTHER is out.

and no, it's not mine. lol. I want it though.

[LittleNeutrino Veteran]

SqWEEEEE I want the Unicorn model!!!!

[Razorwing]

and possibly up coming? :o

I don't think it's HG. Just check the proportions.

Speaking of HG... HG BOX ART.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

I'd rather have the original Unicorn Gundam with the red. Looks more bad-ass to me :p Though the Full Armor looks pretty cool too. I've been able to get it for a while now but I haven't had the money for it yet. Plus I still have other Gunpla I'd rather have. The Banshee looks great too and I would love to see it in MG 1/100.

[Razorwing]

Yeah I agree.. is there a reason it's green? I agree, RX-0 looks better with a red psycho frame.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

^It's emitting particles (maybe Minovsky particles?) so I guess there's something to that as well. And green might indicate that it's just another mode.

The full armor version just looks way too bulky to my taste. I like Gundams to look bad-ass but with the least amount of bulk.

I like bulk, but not too bulky.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

I'd rather see bulk in the form of this:

Instead of a dozen of weapons being added to a Gundam :p Though I'm sure that Unicorn Gundam Full Armor would look awesome in the anime.

He already looks loads better in this image for some reason:

And now I'm sure that the green stands for the Full Armor mode.

[Razorwing]

lol changed your mind then? I like bulk where it shows everything to the tiny-est detail. lol. That's what makes it stands out from the crowd. Heck F.A.U. has 4 gattling guns for god's sake. lol.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Haven't changed my mind about the model, since it looks different compared with the image I posted. I don't like bulk when a model looks really busy like Full Armor Unicorn Gundam. I just really like the way they added all the weapons he has to his disposal. Like he's a 1 man army.

[Razorwing]

Well would you rather have A) Beginning Gundam B) AGE -01 or C) F.A.U. LOL.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

That's a no-brainer! GUNDAM AGE 01 OF COURSE!

I kid of course. It's a no-brainer that I'd pick Full Armor Unicorn Gundam :p I didn't mean I dislike it but I rather have the normal Unicorn Gundam which I will get at some point. Buying the Full Armor version would be pointless then IMO :p

[Razorwing]

I wish we could have FAU with the Red Psycho frame. lol.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Get the original Unicorn Gundam and the Full Armor Unicorn Gundam and you're all set :p

[Ebi]

something i have been doing for the past week :)

[Razorwing]

^NICE. Are you going to paint it? panel line it?

btw.. anyone know what the heck is this? Apparently it's from Seed, but can't for the life of me remember this Gundam.

[Ebi]

i would love to but im to impatient and my hands tremble a lot to let me do that so its a no go, getting the unicorn of the same scale and range next month hopefully http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN962053

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Nice work Ebi. Still planning on buying the MSN-06S Sinanju myself as well.

@Razorwing: If it's not been in the series/OVA, then it's part of the side stories. After Googling "Master Grade SEED 2012" I've discovered that it's Duel Gundam + Assault Shroud.

Here's the concept on display:

MG Duel Gundam + Assault Shroud

Not sure what RESTART means though but I'm sure it's all part of the remastered versions of SEED. Though they're not adding more Gundams to the series, this one is still part of the side stories.
