Haha but then again, although Devil Gundam do look like an alien, it is not an alien

Haha actually that too applies to all ace pilots. If an ace pilot failed, usually the morale of their team also will go down, and vice versa. Hmm, more or less applied to a fleet too;if the flagship KOed, expect the morale of the rest of the fleet will go down.

Anyway, here's a trivia :
- Which Gundam series has the most number of Gundams in it (by most number, i didnt mean the number of different Gundam, but rather the number of Gundam units)?

The answer is...
Gundam Seed/Destiny, coz although they are grunts, Astray is still a gundam. And they are many coz they are the mainstay MS of Orb (the number dwindled a bit in Destiny though,bcoz of the introduction of Murasame)

Haha but i dunno why they choose the skull design for Malaysia Gundam... maybe they related it to bomoh ilmu hitam or something, that bring skull when they treating someone

Hmm I think Astray is considered a Gundam since the M1 type used by Orb is basically a clone of Gundam Astray Red Frame, and since Orb heavily involved in creating the first 5 Gundams, there are very high chance that the OS they used is the same OS as in GAT series Gundam, and the 3 Astray prototypes

ZZ got 4, ZZ Gundam, Zeta, MkII and Psycho Gundam MkII

Haha Gundam OO got war drama wat
Actually in Gundam OO, the gundams are godlike in abt the first 3-quarter of the series; towards the end (with the introduction of GN-Xs) they're not anymore. Hmm GN-X do somehow play the same role of Gelgoog in Gundam 0079 (they got GN-drive like the gundams, thus can use beam weaponry like them) except their pilots were ace pilots of their country, and the organization in which they belong to is the winner of the war

Hmm UC was able to withstand 30 years most probably because within those 30 years, Gundam series was always in UC timeline for about 15 years, before the the introduction of G-Gundam (which started Alternate Universe series). It is natural for long series like that be able to accumulate many and strong enough fans to make it able to be significant until now. None of the AU series that based on the same timeline have exceed 2 season, thus with the introduction of each new AU Gundams series, the fans of the older AU Gundams series will be reduced, coz their "attachment" with the series isn't long enough.
Furthermore, fans nowadays isn't the same like fans say, 10-20 yrs ago. If Sunrise keep using the same formula over and over again, fans will become bored. Plus, they too want to attract more audience from the younger generation, it's safe to say younger generation usually will not be attracted to the UC Gundam series if they didn't watch the newer one first. Coz once you're captivated with any of Gundams series, you will start to check the other Gundam series too (including the old one) and then will take liking to them.
I can say that the newer Gundam series act like an entry point to the older one. Sunrise (and subsequently Bandai) did success with the newer Gundam series, in which the older fans of Gundam will watch it because it's a Gundam series, and the younger fans will then later will want to try watching the older one too.

Just my 20 yen

Haha actually only MS Igloo and Gundam Evolve series were done in 3D, while the rest use 2D for character's and mecha's animation;recently only ships and buildings use 3D. The use of 3D for ships and buildings started from Gundam Seed IINM

By GNX u mean the Ahead? I did predict that it's role is more or less similar like Throne Drei in S1

Hmm I was hoping the CB will have their own mass-produced MS... like what AEUG had in Zeta (Nemo)

Haha later CB become like Gundam factions in Gundam Wing pulak..
Eh right now the situation in OO S2 did have a similarity with Gundam Wing + Zeta. Coz the anti-government faction somehow looks similar to White Fang in Gundam Wing, but the A-Laws similar to Titans in Zeta.

Haha maybe the final situation would be :
A-Laws and anti-govt faction goes into an all-out war, and CB will try to stop both of them

Naah that amount of damage is considered ok lah in hobbies section, coz that Exia wasnt even an MG;its price is RM 76 only wat (not expensive for us in hobbies section ). But if the battle damage is done on a PG (and on exp PG like GP01 summore), then we all goes

Different la somehow, the twin drive system is more or less like multi-core processor, or SLi or Crossfire, cannot use different type of drives
Then again, if two pseudo GN drives was used instead,maybe the output will not be the same. Twin ori gn drives = square the amount of gn particles output of single drive, while most prolly twin pseudo gn drives = twice the amount of single drive only

Haha fake drives cant trans-am. This may be related to the TD blanket that exist only in the original GN drives. Furthermore, fake GN drives seem to have limited amount of GN particles it can generate b4 it need to recharge, thus even if the fake drives can trans-am, the trans-am time will be much shorter than CB Gundams, and the MS will be completely run out of power afterwards (original GN drives can recharge themselves back afterwards)

Hmm depending on how the power are measured, 2 GN Drives squared output can exceed 7 GN Drive TAUS output. Let say both GN Drive and GN Drive TAUS output is 10 unit each. Squared = 10*10 = 100, 7 drive = 10*7=70

Haha if they fit 100, later that MA become mini Death Star ROFL

IINM, together with the data about Trans-Am, the system also sent all research data regarding the GN Drives, bt wiped out

It is, Trans-Am is indeed Aeolia's last invention (since it was a hidden function in original GN drives). The Twin Drive system was just a theory from him

LAO

Haha I think the Ahead pilot (te one who died that is) in ep2 sucks.. not as good as Louis squad leader at least
