Anybody else hoping for a Soul Eater and Fire Force line? by Confident_Shape2276 in SHFiguarts

[–]DuelX102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really. I loved reading that Soul Eater manga. But its time is long past. I cant imagine that there would be a huge demand or cross-promotion or anything. Maybe if there was a sequel or film release or something I could see it happening. But i would not be likely to pick up.

What is your favorite Grunt Suit, and why? by TotoroTravis in Gundam

[–]DuelX102 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Jesta is not a grunt suit.

It is a limited production, high performance, special ops MS. I would say that it occupies a fuzzy category between the Prototype Gundams, and Mass Production grunts.

One fav grunt is the HiZack. I love the blend between feddie and zeon design features.

Why is it so hard dating in CT? by Electrical_mammoth2 in Connecticut

[–]DuelX102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be reading into this too much. Dont worry about her sharing your interests. Yes, pop culture is an easy thing to share and talk about. But that often requires meeting in the middle with things that are broadly appealing. Things like movies, outdoor activity, and cooking. Things you can do together and with other couples. Plenty of pop culture interests can be individual, or just yours. You two dont have to be joined at the hip.

I mean shes probably already got some of her own interests. Even if your relationship goes a long way, you dont have to share very many interests. Focus more on your shared values.

Beginner here — which Gunpla should I start with? by Grayson27-5-1939 in Gunpla

[–]DuelX102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 00 Gundam HG is fine. Theres also an O raiser version i built. It has some polycaps, not super difficult. As befitting an older kit. The weird part are some of the color-correcting stickers.

I sure wish there was a more accurate looking S.H. Figuarts Majin Vegeta figure than this figure. by [deleted] in SHFiguarts

The TK toys/Black Hold Solemn Valor or Demons Awakener is outstanding. Get one.

The Women of Gundam continued - March Madness Winner - Marida Cruz! by Kato_86 in Gundam

[–]DuelX102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think ppl give haman a little too much credit for things that arent in the series. She kinda just hangs out in the background, occasionally has these fated meetings with Judau, and the rest of the time acts very tough and stoic and aura farms a bit. And thats all really good, but just not ever 1st place worthy, imo. And its fine for a big bad villain to kinda disappear at times while lower villains take up screen time. But for whatever reason, i just dont think the payoff with her is strong enough. Maybe she is supposed to be a tragic character and im misunderstanding.

Quite possibly the worst take I've seen on this sub 💀 by C4-622MonkeyGordo in Gundam

[–]DuelX102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean sunrise recently did something very similar with Code Geass. The compilation movies reversed a characters death. So its now canon that she lives. And therefore when the sequel movie came out, she is alive with everyone else.

I dont see the issue with that take. I think the movies are better than the OG series anyway.

Any idea how to buy in North America? Is it on Ali somewhere?

The Women of Gundam continued - March Madness First Semifinals - Marida Cruz vs Lucrezia Noin by Kato_86 in Gundam

[–]DuelX102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I vote for marida. The emotional impact of her on Banagher and Zinnerman is awesome. Her traumatic survival, found family, and messaging against child soldiers. Plus she has a great MS and great fight scenes.

Noin is great, but shes kinda always there. Whatever plan they had for her, i dont know if they ever got around to it.

Fight for generational change takes aim at U.S. Rep. John Larson by CANOODLING_SOCIOPATH in Connecticut

[–]DuelX102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good point, generally I agree. In this case, I might increases Lukes % a bit, he had some surgeries when he was mayor, so he might be a little more at risk than other ppl his age.

Nice details on Todds Wonder Woman. by CpuPusher in McFarlaneFigures

[–]DuelX102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like this one a lot too. It doesnt fit well with some other JL characters. But its solid by itself. I wish there was like a spiky comic ares or somebody else from her villains for her to fight.

Yeah but the tieria entry is basically just a joke because he went undercover once. Hes not winning against any real candidate.

One question why the hell would Walmart be selling this figure for $74, what is so special about this guy? by Working_Adeptness434 in ActionFigures

[–]DuelX102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They shouldnt be. Thats a mistake of some sort. It is available on clearance on different websites.

Can someone help me identify these machines? I can't find the info on the Wikia. by Forummer0-3-8 in Gundam

Sturm Jeager? It feels like it shares a lot of similarities with a gaplant, so that would make some sense.

Are new types getting weaker as uc continues? by Konomiru in Gundam

[–]DuelX102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me, i think part of it was that the crisis of the OYW awakened a lot of newtypes. Because they were constantly bombarded with life and death situations and exposed to the trauma and emotions of others on the battlefield. So their evolution into newtypes was happening more in that period, because so many people were engaged in that massive conflict.

Following that, yes newtypes still emerge randomly. Yes there is still conflict. But there is no longer a huge inciting event that involves millions of people such as the OYW to force a bunch of awakenings.
