This is so violently 90s I think watching it gave me whiplash. Also imagine a world where DoozyBots was the gundam series to catch on in the west instead of Wing.

Start with DoozyBots, and then the next series they bring over is something like Victory or Thunderbolt.

I didn't personally like the show but you might enjoy Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet. That's sort of what that was. The Gundam equivalent wasn't aquatic though.

I was going to mention that but I couldn't remember the name. I dropped it like halfway through.

From what I saw there was only like one goofy aquatic suit, it was that pirate that had a rocket surfboard.

Gargantia seemed so promising, but it ended up being so meh I don't think anybody actually finished watching it.

It's the cover of volume 9 of Gundam Thunderbolt. It comes with a papercraft of an evil White Base

It's not a kit yet, but given they're doing a line for Thunderbolt season 2, it's quite likely we'll get one.

Revive Guncannon, two Origins Guncannons, and a Thunderbolt Guncannon. It's a good year for Kai Shiden related Gunpla. Even aside from how easy it is to make a Shiden Kai.

OFF MY MEDS AGAIN PLEASE DON'T USE BIG WORDS

UNNECESSARY LINE BREAK
Dougram has the best amphibious/underwater suit. It's the Mackerel iirc. Known as Aqualo in it's US Robotech Defenders release of the kit. Dougram mecha are basically Gundam 2.0 anyhow.

Man I now feel bad about not buying multiples of that kit when close out stores had piles of em. Or buying it at all. It's so fat and cute and Doofy. So silly even Battletech didn't make use of the design. Big fat thing with dickhead like diving bell head and torpedo launchers in its tum tum. :3:

(On mobile so go look up images of it yourselves. Fall in love with that fat bastard and the most superior hero and grunt mecha of early 80s anime the Dougram and Soltic Roundfacer. Mr O moved on from his Gundam work and made some kickass robits. I'm kinda surprised Katoki hasn't redone them so they can have tats like his Gundam revamps. :/ )

Ps 0080 and 08th MS are best Gundam mecha designs in general btw, although best mecha design overall is the Macross Valkyrie praise be it's name.

Personally I believe that the Thunderbolt GMs and FA Gundam would have been victorious if they had had more shields.

Like would you go with another layer of sheilds? As in placing shields over the sheilds? Or add shields in new areas. There are a lot of options here.

Obviously what needs to be done is to have the final battle FA unicorn but with the phenex's shield backpack thing, with two shields on the arms and one on the back. Five shields. And then since it's the final battle version it can use shield bits, so it can have five shield bits, and then resupply so it can have five shields attached to it with the five shield bits.

And then they all have the armed armor DE shield booster/gun parts on them. :kheldragar:

I'm with you on the Phenex shield backpack and the shield bits, But I really think the arm mounted shields should be the GP02's giant anti nuke shields. And it should have the knee mounted shields from the GN SEM.

I didn't realized shield bits were a thing and I just googled them and I guess I have to for sure watch 00 now because shield bits sounds incredible.
