Did they really need to put dangly bits on it's Armed Armor DE's? It looks so dumb. :|

That is clearly a necessary design enhancement. They do... something... I'll get back to you on that one. >___>

It's like braids on a little girl's hair.

I know, right? The Phenex looked so much better without them.

According to the Gundam Wiki, they're supposed to be stabilizers. <.<

The only thing they've stabilized with this is their lack of taste.

I guess you wouldn't like the Hyaku Shiki either...

Or the Delta Gundam

or the Akatsuki

No, those just need different paint jobs except for the first shot of the Akatsuki, too many wing-y bits on the back. Also, the lance thing the delta gundam has is a bit much. I'd pilot them with those things on there but only if it were necessary. It would be nice if it were for sport but piloting a gundam is always by necessity, I suppose... but then, like what's the function of gold paint? Is it a psychological measure of some kind? Are these gundams so superior to others that they can afford to just show off like that ? I don't think that's a good reason. To each their own I guess. I want a blue one.

Those things on the space version of the Akatsuki's back aren't wings. They're more or less drones (It can shoot them out and they fly around shooting shit). >.>

Also, the ridiculous lance thing on the Delta Gundam is supposed to be a shield. It's pretty rediculous, but not as ridiculous as the Delta Kai's shield.

What are your thoughts on the Sinanju?

That is much more tastefully done. It actually looks like a tower shield.

Despite what it looks like in that picture, that tube actually isn't up its ass. Also, there are 2 of them.

I meant to imply that it looks like shit. Not the best delivery... I don't care, I'm rolling with it, I'm owning it. It's a robot, it can't have two assholes? They installed another one because they have no taste.

The Sinanju has one of the best shields in all of Gundam.

Second only to the Sazabi.

The body is more than a bit on the bulky side. I'd be worried about restricted movement.

eh...  girl I sort of have a crush on is with an idiot. She's made other observations that were keen enough that make me think she should know better but I guess not. I find out after the fact of a scrap with the guy that he has leukemia and no one thought I might react differently if I knew? He's clearly not coping with it well, and I can see the whole florence nightengale thing, but he's aware of that and maliciously taking advantage of her. He doesn't listen at all when they argue, he's got no communication skills. We're all homeless and I think she got tired of everyone hitting on her and scooped him up to keep everyone else off of her because he's a brawler. Wish I had been there when that went down... It's sort of an ugly situation and now they're staying away from the neighbourhood to avoid confronting me because they know they fucked up on some level at least. I'm waiting for them to come back so I can try to reconcile the thing but I doubt this dude will be very receptive...

Sorry to monolog and derail. I'm seriously stressed out. v___v

I really like the Gundam GP-03 From Gundam 0083 With the dendrobium space station attachment

You too can have a 1/144 scale Dendrobium for the special low price of... roughly 300 dollars! :o

Or you could get the Neo Zeong

Many people would agree with me a that  lot of the Gundam  Anime is hit or miss , but I derive such unyielding childlike joy from building the model kids especially the higher grade ones

Eek that sounds like a pretty messed up situation. :(

Gundam kits are so much more fun than other kinds of models. You more or less get an action figure when you're done.

Lots of movement/posing options.

On the bright side, I did come out of my shell and worry about what I needed instead of just everyone else for once... it was just really frickin terrible timing on all fronts. >__>;

With a name like Armored Core, it best have some good bulky bots in it. >.>

 Yes, it has good bulky bots and one of the ones I built was close to undefeated in multiplayer. The thing is, though, that my lightweight, superfast sniper bot would beat it almost every time when a friend would play with a copy of my tank bot. I would beat the sniper bot with the tank bot most of the time when we switched but only because I had mad skills and it was still super hard. If there's no cover it turns into this stupid spinning cat and mouse game where the sniper bot has to keep it's distance and the tank bot has to turn really fast constantly to keep the sniper bot out of it's blind spot. Long story short, bulky bots are more much more difficult to engineer and pilot effectively... based on my experience with Armored Core...  you should check it out I bet you'd love it. >__> ♡
