  1. FUNNEL FIGHT!

    Looks like Strike Freedom's wings actually ARE Dragoons?!? 

    AWE - FRIGGIN - SOME!

    I thought that while Strike Freedom looked cool it seemed to be kind of depowered to be a new "upgrade" - if the wings are all funnels, then that suit is gonna rule.

    And those wings are about as Aerodynamic as the Nu Gundam's funnels, and they still flew around :p

    But again though, Knight Justice really needs more weaponry....maybe it's got some funnels hidden in its lifter pack somewhere too.

  2. I saw the Master Replica's Vader saber at my local TRU for 150 dollars, and I was very tempted to buy it. But I'm going to wait instead for the "Build Your Own" saber set coming out.

    As for Master Replica's....i figure when they eventually perfect the technology of the removable blade (it's bound to happen), then i'll buy one.

  3. I seriously doubt that it's not Athrun who's piloting Justice. Maybe he steals it from Neo or something, but there's no way he's not getting end up in it.

    Although they could probably rebuild Saviour...we do see them salvaging it in the next ep, and from past precedent it seems that an MS has to be completely vaporized before it can't be rebuilt (see Strike and Freedom :p)

  4. Holy God, what a great episode! Although to be honest, I'm annoyed at the way you can have 5 shows of talk, and then suddenly one show where so much suddenly happens!

    Blast Impulse explodes, Chaos and Saviour get pwned, Luna gets taken out, and Abyss goes bye-bye.

    Best part of the ep was DEFINITELY Shinn v. Kira.....Impulse flying horizontal over the water with Freedom above was beautiful, and the look on Kira's face when Shinn evaded his strike...FINALLY we get to see Shinn become an ass-kicker.

    I just loved the way they paralleled Kira's introduction with Seed ep.34, and the way the parallel suddenly takes a downward turn, resulting in the last half of the show being a complete and total clusterfart. Awesome!

    The only part I didn't like was the way Athrun got owned soooo badly by Kira. They're supposed to be comparable warriors, and Saviour is supposed to be a next-gen MS, yet within a second Kira utterly disassembles it. Honestly, i've been pretty unimpressed with Athrun in this series...he just seems to fly around and never actually be effective - you'd think he'd finally be the one to take out Chaos this ep, but it ended up being Kira as well. What the hell happened to him??

    Maybe his ass-kicking skills will reawaken with Knight Justice..... <_<

  5. It looks like when the hand held guns are stored, the railguns+beam sabers fold back to form the rear skirt armor of the mech, then fold out to the sides when the hand helds are being used.

    Very cool twist, I like that a LOT

    Its just a shame that there aren't any weapons in the new Hi-Mat wings though.

    Knight Justice having a beam shield is kinda cool, but he still needs more ammo.

  6. Hey all

    With all this Star Wars hype abounding, i'm thinking of signing up for Star Wars Galaxies. Ideally, i'd like to one day have a Jedi character (naturally haha). Do any of you know what the process is like for this? I mean, is it random, or will I have to spend 14 hour days sitting in front of my computer for a year before getting it? Any info would be appreciated!

  7. Ok, seriously, I know some of you guys are ripping on this, but I think that the designs look pretty damn good! Yes, it's Robotech, yes it's Harmony Gold, BUT it's also a new anime with transformable airplane mecha and a continuation of mospaeda designs, which people generally like. Given that there's so little Macross/Robotech anime out there, the more we have the better.

    Why is that such a bad thing?

  8. Why does Spawn in the design pic above have one big boot and one small boot?

    Has he got a club foot or something? Looks mighty odd IMO.

    Graham

    That's either a product of late 90's form-over-function design or an indicator of some of the torture that the damned go through in hell:

    Satan "Bwa ha! I'm so evil, I give you only ONE boot!"

    Spawn "Waaaaandaaaa!"

    Bleh, Spawn's dead. It was cool for its time, but end it already.

  9. Those looks more like ZZ etc designs applied to Seed than Brave. Cool though. The Full Armor Strike Gundam looks pretty deadly, but i'm not sure if it can actually move :lol:

    It's like Dullindal took him into the back and gave hime a major blowjob while spouting all that crap about peace and stuff.

    I thought that was Rey's job? :blink:

  10. Yeah, I figured that that was Justice and Freedom's primary advantage over other MS's in atmosphere - they didn't need a flying skateboard like the rest of the GAT series. What I was alluding to was the fact that along with providing Freedom a hiMAT, its wings also hid two massive cannons. I don't see where Nu-Freedom's Wings can hide any weaponry in them so far :(
