Freedomatrix Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Destiny appears to be a collision on several other gundams but what I've noticed from the way the wings are mounted is that they fold more of the nature of Zero Custom's smaller set of wings. The 'winglets' simply side out of the of the larger wing and one of them actually hangs out of the large wing in normal mode. If those beam wings are anything like we saw in the prior series then it will definitely be hauling some serious speed. It could be faster than Freedom. I also wonder will they slice & cut like V2's wings. The return of the gauntlets also surprized me but I guess nothing should be left out of speculation when it comes to this series. It could take some getting use to but I do like its overall design. Seeing this Destiny gundam also makes me wonder why Freedom needs to be upgraded. Destiny seems to be on par with Freedom if that particle cannon can kick out a hardcore blast...given that Shinn will be crazy enough to fight Kira (DeathWish?! ) That 'mkII' shadow appears to have re-invented its Hi-MAT while adding some long swordlike gauntlets to its arms. The railguns look more streamlined and 2 large mysterious humps on its back could contain missiles like Rey's Zaku. Maybe it'll be needed to fight that killer looking psycho gundam.
ChrisG Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 (edited) The scan is indeed from a Strike Design contest. The winner was a design cleaned up by BEE-CRAFT that became the Lightning Strike Gundam. It's officially a part of SEED-MSV, and I'd provide the MAHQ link for it, but the server's undergoing an upgrade. Here's a pic though: Edited March 6, 2005 by ChrisG
Graham Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Heh, everybody's comments on the Destiny MS sorta remind me how we were all bashing Okawara for the Impulse design the first time we saw it. Now most of us like Impulse. I'm sure Destiny will look better both in the animation and also as a toy/model than it does as static Okawara lineart. Graham

It always looks much fuglier on lineart....unless its Katoki's lineart.

Black Valkyrie Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 My vote for favorite SEED MS still goes to the Providence, it reminds me so much of the Gundam Mark II. Indeed.
wolfx Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 More pictures of the Destiny. ...and looks like the 1/144 is already coming out.
wolfx Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 (edited) And as promised to graham, pictures of my Lunamaria figure. Edited March 6, 2005 by wolfx
Black Valkyrie Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Graham will go crazy if he sees this and all the Lunamaria freaks
Black Valkyrie Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 The only thing is missing is a Go Nagai Gundam G-U-N-D-A-M B-E-A-M !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seven Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Heh, everybody's comments on the Destiny MS sorta remind me how we were all bashing Okawara for the Impulse design the first time we saw it. Now most of us like Impulse. I'm sure Destiny will look better both in the animation and also as a toy/model than it does as static Okawara lineart.Graham Speak for yourself, I still think the Impulse looks like a badly executed V Gundam. I think it's hilarious when the torso launches and it looks unabashedly like a huge blue and white hunk of metal torso flying around. Then again, I shouldn't be so hard considering I could swallow seeing Voltes V's big honking torso flying around, although I was 5 years old when I last watched that on TV.
Seven Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Just to think someone actually went as far as taking a picture of a plastic ass... man... Although, I must say, on the scale of plastic molded and painted asses, it probably is on the high end.
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 sorta OT but does anyone know when Gundam SEED comes on on cartoon network?
zeo-mare Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Gundam Seed comes on very late Friday night going into Saturday morning at 1:00 AM
Graham Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 That's a very nice sculpt on that Lunamaria figure. I haven't been able to find one yet though. They either haven't made it to HK yet, or sold out before I could get one. Graham
Sebastian Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Just to think someone actually went as far as taking a picture of a plastic ass... man... Hummmm well. I can recall how Graham went crazy about the CM's Minmay.... I even remember him fantasizing (and later posting the pictures) about the Underwear Concert she gave to Hickaru... Later our Anti-Tranny G-Man even changed his signature to something like "Minmai's underwear" Wen questioned about his sig, he clearly said he was her panties... So, I guess you are in the wrong site if you think taking a pic of a plastic ass is going too far. Carefull you may end banned
wolfx Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 sorta OT but does anyone know when Gundam SEED comes on on cartoon network? I heard they edited the guns in that episode Mwu La and Kreuze were gunfighting in that Coordinator lab....and the gunshots were the same sounds of the doors opening and closing. And they removed Mwu La's blood on his wound. Talk about goin too far about censorship. Hypocrites. PS: Btw i only posted the panty shots on Graham's almighty's request on mention of canon blue color.

PS: Btw i only posted the panty shots on Graham's almighty's request on mention of canon blue color. First: It was 1 am but I ttink they changed it recently to 12: 30 am but I could be wrong. And yah I hate how they changed the pistols (I believe the other guns bigger than pistols are the same) and edited out the blood. I mean crap anyone up late enough to watch it can certainly handle some realistic pistols and some blood. When Gundam Wing aired on Toonami, the afternoon airing was censored wihtout blood and said "destroy" for kill and "the great destroyer" but at nite on Toonami "late edition" or whatever, thye showed the blood and let them say "kill" and "God of death" Im really starting to hate Cartoon Network....... But thats just me.
Anubis Posted March 7, 2005 Author Posted March 7, 2005 Yeah, changing the guns into sci-fi pistols is ludicrous. Especially given it's time slot. Hell, it's original 10:30 Sat. time slot should have been fine. Airing the show at 1AM there is no excuse to be editing it at all. They still seem to be rishing the pan shots too. It doesn't look right.
azrael Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Bah, why waste time with CN's version. Just buy the DVDs and quit complaining.

Legend of TSXer Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Bah, why waste time with CN's version. Just buy the DVDs and quit complaining. Already did. Over the Holiday seasons they kept putting other shows in its time slot so I ordered a DVD set, (subs sucked btw) and started DLing fansubs to finish the series cause I couldent stand it no more. No more complaing! Just annoyed by CN

Anubis Posted March 7, 2005 Author Posted March 7, 2005 Oh I have bought the dvd's. I just happened to be home at the time and turned it on to my dismay.
Black Valkyrie Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 From Guntoa : Destiny Gundam pics Early copies of this month's anime mags have leaked out. Pics of the Destiny Gundam have already been posted on imgboards and such: Destiny Finger? Lineart http://s03.2log.net/home/gunota/destanime1.jpg http://s03.2log.net/home/gunota/destanime2.jpg
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 heh....it has the shinning/burning finger thing going on...that's actually pretty funny
Anubis Posted March 7, 2005 Author Posted March 7, 2005 (edited) Destiny Finger? Haha That means Shinn gets to yell a lot. Seems like too diverse a weapons spread. BFG (?), Beam Boomerangs, Anti-Ship Beam Sword (?), Beam Rifle, "Destiny" Finger (It would be funy as hell if they call it Shining Finger). Covers all the bases though. Close and long range. I'm curious about the bfg. Looks like it unfolds, you can see the hinge at the bottom of the second pic. Looks like the sword unfolds too, it has a hinge at the bottom too. That's going to be one long ass sword. With this much stuff and those wings it's got to be another Nuclear Suit. The other option if not a Shining Finger-type attack is it could have some kind of large beam cannon in it's arms. Compact Particle Cannon or something. Edited March 7, 2005 by Anubis
Mechafan Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 heh....it has the shinning/burning finger thing going on...that's actually pretty funny That what I was thinking. The worst part is that Shin gets the upgrade.
Hikuro Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Ask me that's probably a nasty lil design... I mean its got some interesting features but they seem lacking in "Ph34r"...
Magnus Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 It's like the Strike, V2, and God Gundam mooshed together. I was wondering when Kunio would whip out the G Gundam designs and incorporate them into Seed....hell, he's tapped pretty much every other series (except for Turn A, thank god) Still, as Blender Gundams go, it looks damn cool, and I can't wait to see it in action and buy its MSIA. Destinyyy....FINGAH! *touch*
ogami Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 (edited) The shinning/burning finger thing maybe is like Crossbone Gundam X3... It is an I-field that can block beam weapons. Edited March 7, 2005 by ogami
Magnus Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Woah! Kinda makes you wonder if Stellar is even capable of drowing
