I'm sure there's a really dumb John Woo pistol Gundam with some dumb technobabble target tracing system or something tucked away in Seed or AGE of something, I'm just surprised I've never heard of it.

It's not Gundam, but Trinity Blood has a literal gunkata robot at least :v:. No, really, his first appearance rips off the opening scene of Equilibrium wholesale.

I feel like this doesn't cut the mustard because a lot of the pictures show it using a pair of swords, too. You've got to commit, Gundam. Not everything needs a sword.

And the Zabanya. Styling on dudes with pistol-axes was basically Lyle's thing, to the point where none of his suits had beam sabres fitted.

To be fair, Zabanya is ultimate gun-kata because it turned the guns into bits. Who needs hands?

Someone also linked a P-Bandai Gerbera Tetra Kirara color version from the first season of BF.

Was there any physical distinction between hers and a normal Gerbera Tetra, or just the colors?

Humbrol does a French blue that I used for the veins of the seaQuest model I built last year. It thinned perfectly for a panel line wash and would be darn near perfect for the electric blue look on any Orbital Frame style kit.

Real shame all the actual Orbital Frames have giant loving dongs though

So does the Grimgerde.

Actually, noticing Grim's dong was what gave me the idea.

It's a known fact that giant robot engineers in animes are giant perverts, so it makes total sense that the robots with the meatiest dicks are all the femininely named ones.

Finished RG Wing Zero EW. Its the first RG I've done since I started this hobby with RG Zeta. While I don't particular care for Wing Zeros aesthetics the kit itself was surprisingly easy to put together. Had to get the action base for maximum bishonen posing potential.

edit: just noticed those loving knee stickers unrolled themselves :argh:

I always sorta liked the wing zero custom.

If/when I buy my own house, I plan to pick up the PG Wing zero and use it as the angel for the top of my Christmas Tree :v:.

All the tree decorations had better be HGUC Balls painted in different colors, and use beam sabers as the icicles. :v:

The funny part is that it turned out they're actually for the base Wing.



Aside from giving Bird mode "feet", they also make it so the Wing isn't totally helpless once its Buster Rifle runs out. This is also why the Doppelt exists, Heero had six of the things sooooo.

I don't know if the RG Wing is compatible with them, though.

I'd expect it to work, since it's the Katoki redesign.

I know that, but they're supposed to latch onto the battery packs and I don't see any connection points on them in the manual.

It doesn't help that there's no manual for the Drei Zwergs.
