areaseven Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Just picked up these two kits earlier this month. Easily my two favorite Gunpla kits in the series right now. I'll probably pick up the HG Destiny Gundam after Christmas to recreate the Sekai vs. Shimon fight.
SchizophrenicMC Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 That was a lot of fun. Of course, it leaves us with the question: who is that girl? I almost feel like that should have been the moment to introduce Sei, rather than draw a parallel to Aila. It's gonna be a tough 2 weeks waiting on the next episode.
Hikuro Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 I'll live since I completely forgot today was a new episode and I have a number of new kits to work on. Even gonna try my hand at the Lightning Gundam as it's my favorite of the trio.
A_Man_and_a_Woman?! Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 I've never been able to get into Gundam, but I've always thought the models were pretty rad. Now that I've started watching Build Fighter, I think I might jump into the Gundam custom model rabbit hole- starting with the Bear!!!
areaseven Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 The Red Warrior is definitely on my list, but that Hi- Gundam vRabe looks tempting.
David Hingtgen Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Pre-episode-watching guess: "Beyond the Knuckle"? If only we could get a Burning Buster Wooooollllllfff! Real guess: Sekiha-ten-GyankoKen?
chyll2 Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 poor white wolf, I was expecting that this episode will redeem his status but he still end up being a CF
Hikuro Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 Power Geyser! first thing popping in my mind when I watched this morning.
azrael Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 When they meant "destructible environment", was the moon included in that? Most video games have the moon as a background pic... And MSs with GN Drives....someone forgot to mention they can make GN Fields?
SchizophrenicMC Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 Gunpla Battle may exclude certain features or functions for game balance's sake
chyll2 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 i really like replaying the OP and pause to see the mechs
Hikuro Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 whole episode in general was pleasent......unlike another series of a similar name..... >_>
SchizophrenicMC Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 i really like replaying the OP and pause to see the mechs Didn't give it any thought. I'm more hyped for the music. Well that, and China makes a cameo in the OP.
renegadeleader1 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Is anyone else getting annoyed at how Fumina Hoshino is getting treated now? She goes from being a strong independent woman in a badass GM to being relegated to crappy support status with a dumb SD gundam, and now in the span of just two episodes she's been turned into a lovesick fool spazzing out in a jealous rage over someone she never showed the slightest interest in the previous 12 episodes outside of a platonic friendship. She had no problem with Busty Mcshield before, but now its all: "GET AWAY FROM MY MAN YOU CHEAP HUSSY!!!" (stupid face, stupid face, etc)
SchizophrenicMC Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 To be fair, she has a stated rivalry with Gyanko, and the whole point of her fight with Lady Kawaguchi was to remind her: she's a strong, independent woman who knows how to fight for herself, and she needs to do that instead of just trying to be the support for the boys.
Black Valkyrie Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 It seems more and more custom MSG00 suits are appearing, nice.

Heck, it looks like she'll be facing the new silver-haired girl if the OP means anything. She's gonna need to have her Gunpla stand on it's own.
SchizophrenicMC Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 All in all, I still like Fumina as a character, and while I think she's been sidelined a bit by the plot not having enough room to develop all 3 characters AND any of the enemies AND expose backstory, I still think she's portrayed as a capable member of a team of players who have what it takes to win the National Championship.

areaseven Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Some new pics from Gundam Guy. The Transient Gundam painted in Exia colors. HGBF 1/144 Gundam Portent HGBC 1/144 Portrait Flyer SDBF SxDxG Gundam
azrael Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 It seems more and more custom MSG00 suits are appearing, nice. Maybe Gunpla Builders realize 00 suits are a wee bit OP than some of those other MSs. I blame the GN Drives. Time to start modding my MG Exia.
areaseven Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I should tune up my 00 Gundam Ultima. Perhaps hunt down the XN Raiser parts and buy another 00 Seven Sword/G for spare parts and an alternate color scheme.
Hikuro Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 doesn't surprise me more and more are using 00 designs. they're sleak and refined matching speed with power and mobility.
Archer Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Really like Lightning Gundam's backpack expansion. Reminds me of the Rezel Type-C back pack, a favorite of mine. Also, build fighter try's OST came out a few days ago for those who might have have heard it yet. My favorite:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66-vqwpHJzk
Black Valkyrie Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Maybe Gunpla Builders realize 00 suits are a wee bit OP than some of those other MSs. I blame the GN Drives. Time to start modding my MG Exia. Or may a beefed up O Gundam.

Time to start modding my MG Exia. I'm convinced the in-universe reason nobody uses Unicorn is because it's actually banned under GBWC regulations. But really, there's no getting around how popular 00 and its MS designs were, even if I don't like them. And thanks to weird Japanese copyright rules, they can finally show 00 suits, so that's what they're doing. Not enough time has passed for Unicorn, though. Kinda lame.
