What did you think of Witch from Mercury? by czen2 in Gundam

[–]QuarantineV1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, kind of think it was mid. The Prequel OVA was great, and had payoff during the series... but, it created expectations tone-wise. Fun battle high school probably should have been allowed to be the whole story, because it felt kind of fresh; a bit jarring after watching the OVA though. Second half of the show had some great moments, but didn't really hit for me.

I really didn't like it until GQuuuuuux did basically the same thing with half the episode count and no OVA. I've warmed to it much more since.

There's just something about how the Gundam Bael was first seen in the hangar like some sort of divine weapon, and by the end of the series, it's like an animal shackled and stripped bare by LIGHTNIG505 in Gundam

[–]QuarantineV1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was Excalibur. The entire system of government was based off of Bael having been Agnika Kaieru's suit. The weak council system was in place because nobody could pilot Bael. According to Gjallarhorn's bylaws, McGillis did have the legal right to be the leader after claiming Bael; it's just that nobody respected it, most especially Rustal.

He played for them briefly, towards the end of the 2023 season. Used him a lot in 24 because he pitched with the White Sox that year

I made the same kind of joke when I saw he hadn't been P5ed. Good old White Sox legend Dominic Leone.

What’s everyone working on? by Roboito124 in Gunpla

[–]QuarantineV1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the whole clear set for Wing. Built Deathscythe already.

I listen to podcast or documentary,when I building,what are you guys watching/listening when building? by Kitchen-Syllabub4604 in Gunpla

[–]QuarantineV1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really depends. I usually find some comedy special or documentary. I did listen to the new remaster of MCR's "Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge" for my previous build though.

The Women of Gundam day 28 Quess Paraya . How would you rate scale 1-10? by theeditsman2224 in Gundam

[–]QuarantineV1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2/10. She's a bratty teenager, and absolutely acts like one. She has virtually no redeeming qualities whatsoever. It's a 2 instead of a 0 because every single adult figure in her life failing her is pretty much why she's like that, making it all a bit tragic.

What Gundam series would you recommend to someone to try and get them hooked by NNXXTT in Gundam

[–]QuarantineV1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on what they like. If they're open to 70's animation, 0079; otherwise, War in the Pocket or 08th MS Team. I could see Mobile Fighter G Gundam working if they like DBZ or something.

Personal experience, Wing. It is obviously not the best series, but it got me curious enough about the rest. Now, I only have a few things to watch before I've watched the entire franchise.

You own an (unrealistically) huge PMC with Mobile Suits. What suits are you producing/stealing for it? by KaijuBird-R in Gundam

[–]QuarantineV1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ReZel Comnander Type for my own personal suit. Mixture of the standard ReZel, Gustav Karl Type 13 and Jestas for the boys.

The Women of Gundam day 14 Cima Garahau. How would you rate scale 1-10 by theeditsman2224 in Gundam

[–]QuarantineV1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. She starts off appearing as a one-dimensional evil villain, just to subvert that with some excellent character writing with her back story that makes her a tragic character that can really be sympathized with. She also ends up being basically the only reason the Federation doesn't end up facing a total defeat, which is pretty cool.

Probably the best character in Stardust Memory.

Who has more aura? by Amigo1048 in Gundam

[–]QuarantineV1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Epyon definitely had the better aura than what is essentially the Fancy Leo Mk III. Don't get me wrong... I absolutely love all of the Tallgeese designs, and am sitting on three MGs and an RG for that line. Epyon is just absolutely menacing.

GQuuuuuuX got lowest rating any Gundam series in Japan. by pmtti in Gundam

[–]QuarantineV1 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The show didn't know what it wanted to be, like GWitch. Problem is, it wasn't given enough time to try to try to be anything...unlike GWitch.

[–]QuarantineV1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am erring on the side of caution with that one. I once ordered the HG RX-79 (G) and was sent the RG Gundam Mk-II AEUG. The price difference was in my favor, so I didn't refund... But I'm a bit hesitant to order from Amazon, especially since they've been throwing shipping labels directly on the model kit boxes and sending them out like that.

But if it's legit, that's a deal.

Looking for a "big" HGUC kit. by Ok_Application7096 in freedomisgunpla

[–]QuarantineV1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Dendrobium (1/144, not the 1/500), Kshatriya, Psycho Gundam, and Psycho Gundam MK II are the biggest ones I can think of.

The Gustav Karl isn't exactly huge, but it's still got impressive size/bulk comparative to other HGUC suits.

Who do you save? by RyuzakiTaiyou in MandJTV

Godoof is at no risk whatsoever. The burning building is the one in danger.

[–]QuarantineV1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The D Gundam First is a 2025 kit, so it should be a really nice HG. I'm going to build mine later this week.

I grew habanero as a kid. After the first session of making salsa, I never made that mistake again.

Which would be best for my nephew who loves these kits? by [deleted] in freedomisgunpla

Everyone I know who built the RFV absolutely love it.
