Who wants to bet that Yzak's gonna be getting that new Blue Gouf? Colour scheme matches his Zaku, and it looks like his Zaku's weapons have been grunt-ified.

Woo! New Justice! I can't wait to see this sucker! I always thought that suit was underrated.

Anyone got any clue what the Nu-Freedom's wings are for (apart from looking pretty and making a large target?)

The Aile pack looks near identical to the TV version. 

Isn't that the point?

Yeah, Cagalli going Seed mode really made zero sense to me. Humans can do it now? I've never gone Seed mode (except when I was blindingly drunk I think....)

I'd write it off as due to her relation to Kira.....maybe since they're siblings, he's doing some newtype hocus pocus and sending her some of his power? Or maybe her genes WERE altered a bit? dunno....

New Justice?? Ohhh, nice!

They should make an MSIA of the old Justice first though

Huh, finally

Ok good, so it still has hip-rail guns or whatever - I was really worried that they would be dual blasters. They're probably just as powerful as Freedom's old guns but more compact (they look like Guaiz's though...)

Chest Gun - COOL! Wasn't expecting that, but the more firepower Freedom has the better

Arms - Ok, those must be beam shield generators - or Freedom Finger style melee weapons? Hmm....my money's on the shield, but it could very well be both!

The more I look at it, the more I think this is a new suit and not an upgraded one - the head, feet, legs, torso, backpack, shoulders, and forearms are all new. Either Freedom gets utterly owned (which is doubtful) or Kira self-destructs it or something and gets a new suit.

Lastly....I really want to know what those new wings are hiding! Guns? Or bits? Ahhh, the suspense!

But it looks cool - I like the use of the gold. The design changes a lot but keeps it looking like Freedom. Overall, thumbs up!

Now all it had to do is transform into a giant robot!

But seriously, i'm very disturbed that more people aren't speaking about Rey's boobies.

I mean, this is Rey.....with boobies! There should be at least 5 pages on this already!

Looks good, I like what I see so far! (except for the SDF 4....bleargh, there's one Mospeada design they could've ignored )

Turn-X had Shining Finger, which is weird because it was rumoured to have extra-solar origins or something.

Anyway, Moonlight Butterfly is a sort of ultimate attack - it unleashes a horde of nanotechnology that basically wipes out (or buries) all other tech in the area. That's how the Turn A world ended up being set so far back technologically - Turn A pulled a Moonlight Butterfly on the entire planet.

AAAHHHH!!!!! REY BOOBIES!

Wow, now THAT's a spoiler! huh.....I wonder how he/she/it can get their voice so deep? kinda disappointed, i've always thought that that was a rather lame plot twist.

Ooh its so NU!

Looks cool, although you still can't tell too much overall. Those look like energy shields on its forearms eh?

Yeah no kidding! The prequel trilogy seriously blurrs the lines between good and evil and smears the Jedi order pretty badly.

If anything, they're all just as, if not more, manipulative than Palpatine - plus very restrictive and cold. I don't think i'd want to grow up in an environment like that!

The whole celibacy thing doesn't help either...

I smeelllll BARBQ!

www.allspark.com is good. Always fun times there.

Even with those explanations Evangelion still makes little sense.

The only conclusion I have is that everyone goes swimming in Rei milk at the end.

It was Ani-Rupt - they're fast on the subbing, but the quality is pretty low. I usually upload a better version later. You can find it at:

Just watched the subbed version of ep.23

Two words

JOY GASM

Oh yeah! Hot and steamy MS-on-MS action! Wow, what a great ep! Destiny has a lot of talking heads, but when they pull out the Mobile Suits do they ever! Seeing Kira with Freedom just owning everyone on the battle field made me tingly all over!

The only thing I was disappointed with in this ep was Shinn.....I was hoping he'd react more strongly to Freedom, but he just sort of stood around with his mouth open until Impulse's arm got cut off. Boo

Destiny rules, period!

How hard is it to become a jedi on there? If I bought the game, would i have any chance at all of getting force powers (besides playing 15 hours a day that is )

Holy......God......

You have to give this for the writers of the show, they can SURE leave you screaming for more! Those last moments of this ep sent a chill down my spine.....it looks like its gonna be a massive brou-ha-ha for the next one, and damn if the weekend can't get here fast enough!

WOW!

Hmmm.....I hope Freedom gets upgraded and not downgraded (i'm worried that there might be a Gundam X / X Divider thing going on here). Still though, i like the stylistic changes to Freedom

So we now know what Stellar will be piloting eh? I can't wait to see the Colossus MSIA!

I really wish they'd started the Clone Wars in the first movie, and had the same actors throughout the prequel - Hayden instead of Jake. I think it would have helped the flow of the prequels much more. Ep 1 just feels too removed from Ep2 and Ep3

If its Aayla or Quinlan Vos you guys want, then definetely get the Republic book.

Lately they're the ONLY ones who've been featured in it

He's cool and all, but i'm rapidly getting sick of the dreadlocked jedi.

I'd say the latter.

Baaaah sheep-fan, baaaaaaaaahhhh!

That's a clone pilot.

Anakin has the long hair and everthing, as well as the scar on his eye. When does he get this?

He gets it in the Star Wars: Republic comic book, came out a few months back, and its from Asaj Ventress, right before he tangles her up in cables and drops her down into the bowels of Coruscant

Not really following you when you say ass-tastic? I mean...what's so wrong about this? Out of a 50 episode series, 2/3rds of it have gone out of release and it hasn't been a year since they started their first DVD release. They're making good money off the show, and obviously being Aired on TV is a good deal and considering its still on the air the raitings aren't bad then, meaning fanbase. So obviously its not ass-tastic.

I disagree.

In regards to the cartoon, the fact that it's pulling in good ratings speaks to the quality of the show and the fanbase, since Cartoon Network certainly have NOT gone out of their way to promote it - instead putting it in a Friday 1am timeslot, correct? (we don't get CN up here, but that's what i've been told). This is in contrast to the daily airings Wing had.

The handling of the Gundam product is what my ass-tastic comment focuses on though and i'm speaking primarily about MSIA's and not the models - go to any of your major toy distributors and take a look at the shelves. For a show which has already aired 2/3rds of the way through, with supposedly good ratings, there is not a SINGLE Gundam toy out there - and what IS on the shelves has been heavily discounted.

Instead of following what looked like a winning formula with Wing Gundam, Bandai screwed the pooch with G Gundam, and likewise with its Seed Gundam products. Their distribution system was horrible - G Gundam and all the Mandor and Toro MSIA's flooding the shelves (not to mention the endless Burning BS figures) killed any minute momentum the product had from the lethargic UC line, and Bandai's release of 3 different versions of the Strike Gundam MSIA, not to mention the Astray's (which were cool but which did not figure into the show at all) in the first wave, while the iron was hot (so to speak) pretty much were the final nails in the Gundam merchandising coffin from an action figure standpoint.

Why Bandai didn't release all 5 of the prominent 'hero' Gundam figures in the first wave is still beyond me. Regardless though, they were able to take a franchise which had excellent toy sales with Wing and run it UTTERLY into the ground - there have been NO new US Gundam action figures for nearly a year now on the shelves. Hell, even He-Man lasted longer than Seed.

I loved being able to find Gundams on local store shelves and buying them without the inflated prices. But it's become apparent that Bandai USA do not know what they are doing, and that their actions have hurt the Gundam franchise as a whole. Thank god that the japanese market is still going strong, otherwise we wouldn't be getting any MSIA's at all.

There will always be some group out there who will ignore the license and continue subbing. When you have a raving fanbase and literally thousands of downloads per ep of your product (generating huge profile), then you'll have someone providing it.

Honestly, now that i've heard Destiny has been licensed i'm sort of disappointed. Why? Because of the completely ass-tastic way that Bandai America handled the Seed license, including the products. I honestly don't expect much better from them, and would rather that Bandai as a whole keeps Gundam in Japan instead of taking massive losses in the US
