Right stuf does an initial $1 charge then charge in full when the order is shipped.
I always wondered why he had an eye patch when he clearly does not need it. I guess for dramatic effect.There are some who would consider it the ONLY Gundam series...

I found it real repetitive and boring. The Shining Gundam does look cool tho. Only was on episode 14 before I stopped. I dunno what 50 episodes of this show would entail. I honestly prefer more "real" mecha shit like war and politics than what this was.
50 used to buy you 6 episodes at most. Now it's at least 24 episodes per the same money. No different than a season of a TV series.
We get it dirt cheap compared to Japan.
How does this hold up if you can overlook the stereotypes and you're looking to enjoy it unironically? Is the mecha-on-mecha action still dope af?
I just re-watched Gundam Wing and that was definitely not as cool as I remember it being.

We've gotten spoiled. I remember when I excitedly found a store selling $20 VHS tapes of subtitled-only Outlaw Star that only had 2 episodes each on them.
Better than Wing... but just. It's more like any other shonen fighting show of its time. Sometimes it's actually really good, but it's got a lot of dramatic shouting between the punching.
This show is Imagawa in top form - full of over-the-top, mecha-on-mecha action with an emphasis on close range martial arts fighting. I could never get into Wing even when it was new, but G Gundam is still a lot of fun if you can get into its exaggerated, hot-blooded tone.
