hmm.gif not sure if this is the right thread but alright i'll entertain it.  tongue.gif

universal century can get very technical at times but a lot of them technical rules r made up by themselves for themselves. UC also explain in vivid details (with actual formula to boot) on the physics of Minovsky particles but it doesn't exists nor will it ever exists because real world physic wouldn't support it. Its all made up in order to present the show as a real robot show, to present itself as hard science fiction rather then an all out space fantasy, to present some sort of justification as to why giant robot shooting pew pew lazor with psychic pilot in space exist within the universe. In the 70's, robot shows r confine to the realm of super robot genre, an all out fantasy setting in which they have no needs and no obligation to flesh out the technical aspect of the show. Gundam essentially created a new genre with its intricate details (albeit fictional), concept tech that could work, pseudo mathematical formulas, amalgamation of real world physics with its own made up physics, etc etc all this effort is to create an illusion for the viewers to present the show as real as it could be. Credit where credit is due, I salute Bandai and Sunrise dedication in fleshing out the Gundam universe (well the UC stuff anyway), the physics of the show may be largely fictional but its real enough to the general audience that the kids growing up watching it is inspired to go into scientific fields and/or intrigue them into researching and reading more scientific articles.

tldr: its all fictional. In fact 3 words is all we need to counter any reasoning for giant robot existence, square cube law. Ball is the closest mobile suit in terms of plausibility.

yeah i know it's fiction, but at least it's a more plausible reason to why they design space mobile suits with legs than how Treize explain it laugh.gif tongue.gif

for me is Strike, the only REAL color separation is RX-78 and Zaku II tongue.gif
other than that all improved joint system but colour separation parts reduced since RG strike.  whistling.gif

RG strike still have impressive panel like due to old MG is not really great
then UC ms needless to say la...

till Justice came out because there was no MG Justice there haha, only got old HG...

then GP 01 series then Strike Freedom bla bla bla....  hmm.gif

If u r more of a technical person u'll appreciate UC reasoning, if ur r more into the social aspect of a show u'll lean more towards Treize's reasoning.

both offers different take and explaination on what is otherwise a nonsensical element.

maybe.. just maybe..

appearance/cosmetic on RG exia is kinda dissapointing(it just looks exactly like HG)... but for gimmick i give them a point, and the transparent-flexible-like material another point.

Both are actually good, but I find normal cutters being sold at normal hardware shops are suffice to do the job, if not as good. It's just used to cut the pieces from the runners, unless it's to trim the nub marks, then only it holds some merits to be the justification to buy 'branded' cutters laugh.gif
