Second, name one protagonist kit with spoiler gimmicks. (And so help me if you say AGE-1... :argh:).

Third, do you think Bandai is running a charity or something? They learned from 00 to not release five versions of the same kit with slightly different accessories, but they're not about to start throwing everything into one package. Especially with BF, which had an infamously cost-cutting HG line.

Age-1. If I'm remembering correctly its gimmick only works at night when it can see the moon? :smuggo:

The Star Winning, and Winning Gundams. Granted, everyone spotted the secret from the get-go, but they still held off showing it till the TV appearance. Hell, the Build Burning too, come to think of it. Bundled with flame effects and Assimilation didn't turn up to use them till, what? Episode 8 or 9?

It does flaming stuff in the very first episode when it busts out of the Dom.

I was only just now able to take another look on my PC, but you are actually correct. It's only for like a brief second before it shuts off, but it does turn Orange and almost break out the flame-ring before breaking out Wind. It doesn't do the full flame-ring Assimilation supercharge until episode 9 though, so I still stand by it being a little bit of a spoiler.

Not really surprised, Umi Tryon is the least different from the ZZ's components. Sora as well, since it doesn't have to carry around the huge backpack anymore.

Still, getting this definitely! Also amused that the Sora Tryon just straight up uses SBS' Plavsky wings.

Tryon-3 is the most wonderful thing and if I didn't know I'd gently caress up making it because I'm bad with my hands so plastic models are definitely not for me (plus I have no idea what insanity I'd have to get through to get it to Argentina) I'd totally get it.

I sure hope we'll get it back on screen somehow. Like the last battle of the original series, but this time with more Tryon-3. Lots more Tryon-3.

Half the joke with Tryon 3 is that the ZZ was a combining super robot. The entire gattai sequence is straight up ripped from the ZZ with only very minor changes.

Yes, but it could not shake the image of being as clunky as a flying brick. Now, it has a new form that is equally awesome and fits the clunky appearance very well.

It being hugely clunky fit perfectly well in ZZ, since it regularly fought opponents that could fly circles around it(Jamru Fins being the biggest example) and won most of its fights through raw weapons power like a super robot.

Man, the Jamru Fin episode was weird. You just don't expect monsters-of-the-week to make it out alive and mostly unscathed and then bugger off to a different part of the Earth Sphere.

Best thing about the ZZ is that it's pretty much acknowledged in its own show as being an overdesigned lovely kludge of a mobile suit which is only effective due to sheer brute power and having a preternaturally talented psychic murder artist for a pilot.
