One question for the wing fans.
I'm starting the MG Wing Zero Custom and I've noticed the instructions tell you to build the white hands (although it also comes with parts for grey hands).
I checked the scenes from Endless Waltz (thanks Jhhk, whoever you are on Youtube) and it has grey hands there. Even the Zero Custom illustration in the Ver.Ka instructions shows it with grey hands.
The RG also has grey hands but it seems the PG has white hands.

So what is the rationale for white hands? What do you prefer?

you wont ever have to worry about not wanting another Versus game, because PS4 Versus was so poorly received in japan that i doubt we ever get another one on consoles. Bandai is just going to refocus and continue to churn out arcade ones. The west didn't seem to buy it either. That game series is all but dead on consoles unfortunately.

I don't get why they messed with breaker. 1-3 were all fantastic games.


I sure hope you're wrong about this. Versus is my favorite mp of all time, I need more of that kind of content in my life

I'd just like to say, the Gundam movie trilogy is one of my favorite things. And the full Zeta Gundam series. Long live Tomino!

I'm curious about what the next few Gundam console games are going to look like, if they do something other than Versus or Breaker.

Hows the PS4 Battle Operation doing?

I really hope we get an "actual" Gundam game like the PS3 had with Battlefield Record UC 0081, Side Stories and/or Gundam Unicorn.

Battle Operation Next on the PS4 sucks, Battle Operation II isn't out yet.

This is more in line with what I want, but I think a story-based Gundam game that focuses on a single time period or era is a pipedream these days. The first thing people say whenever a game is announced is "Is G/W/OO/etc. in? No? I'm out!" It seems like only crossovers get made. That being said, the last few games that weren't crossovers weren't exactly great either so ::shrug::

It doesn't even need to be based in one universe, I'd just like something that isn't:

1. Melee based against swarms of enemies (Musou and Gundam Breaker)
2. Centered on plastic toys
3. A fighting game (Versus)
4. A F2P online title.

Gundam Unicorn was awesome and Side Stories wasn't bad. I dunno what to say.

I'm sad to hear that the New Gundam Breaker impressions are weak.

I might download the beta demo and try it out, but I'm probably just going to pick up Gundam Breaker 3 on Singapore PSN instead. How good is Breaker 3's coop? I plan on playing it with my brother with two PS4s.

Is Build Divers only 15 episodes? The story feels like it's wrapping up.

I can't believe they didn't show Riku's final blow and just did a distant blip in space. Rommel going in with the chainsaws and some face close-ups had the best animation of the episode. Just single seconds. There's so much panning, it's boring. The only other animation I was struck by was a previous episode where 00 was fighting in the ice canyon and they animated a zoom and rotation at the same time, instantly recognisable as the good stuff.

There are a bunch of questions left open. This felt like a big mid-season conflict, but there's plenty more left to tell.

Seeing that no one answered the question (not even to say "Nobody knows"), I must assume there are actually no Wing fans.
This confirms my suspicion that nobody likes Gundam Wing.
This post is bait.

Nah, I really only expect the character reveals to be either single lines of dialogue or maybe a reveal and then a one episode where they adventure but things are changed around knowing who is who. If Sarah has more explanation than Aila's voice saying, "Come home for dinner dear," the last moment of the season, I'll I don't know, raffle off a movie to the thread I guess.

Vs. was definitely a disappointment though in many regards. The gameplay was there but they touted it as a pretty big next step in the series and it turned out to be simply a scaled back pseudo reboot without many obvious changes. The content and roster left a lot to be desired sadly while the arcade version was still going strong and is for that matter.

I hope it comes back for one big try next time.

Anyone own a figure from the Gundam Gals Generation line of figures? They always looked good, but their a bit too expensive (until they make a Haman figure than I'd probably buy one instantly). I thought it was cool that their doing a figure of Matilda.

I also find the description pretty funny:

AmiAmi said:
From "Mobile Suit Gundam" comes a figure of the Gundam fan's madonna, Matilda Ajan.
Her killer good looks, and proportions are shrunk for a high quality 1/8 scale figure. A base is included, the hat and file can be removed, and it also comes with other small items to recreate the image of the film.
Welcome this handsome soldier with mature female charms, GGG Matilda Ajan to your collection today.

I do hope we see some kits from the Figure-rise line with more classic characters that also aren't just in bikinis.

I have a couple figures but I'm a lot more interested if it is something I can put together, as simple as it may be.

After some time with New Gundam Breaker, its very obvious Bamco did not really optimize the game.

Hopefully they fix this with subsequent patches

You mentioning Katejina reminded me of this figure here:
http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIG-MOE-2537-R&page=top/search/list?s_keywords=Katejina$pagemax=40$getcnt=0$pagecnt=1

cf432ef1fc73cd11e9f7041f3eefedf6.image.381x500.jpg


(Also comes in the long haired version, but I refrained from posting since I figured her cleavage would be on the NSFW side.)
What does my trash waifu cost?
Who would want a figure of a character with no redeeming qualities?
A figure like this would be fitting for her.
http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/File:Katejina8.gif
She's still one of my favorite Gundam villains. I like her way more than fan favorite Rau for example. Rau was just crazy. Now Katejina wanted to just fuck up the lives of everybody because they were using child soldiers and was in love with Uso and was saved from being raped.

That link leads to a pre owned one for 4,000 Yen and it looks like the regular price is a little more, but I think they might not be printing it at the moment since its out of stock on the main product page. So unless its in stock on another site the one in that link might be your best chance to get it sooner rather than later.
