SEED Destiny was a disaster because its story was never planned properly. It's obvious that Fukuda and Morosawa had story elements developed for the first quarter of the show, but threw things off the wayside for a number of reasons, including marketing pressures and old-fashioned incompetence.
If we were to take only those early story elements, can the rest of the plot be developed from there? As a thought experiment, let's ignore everything after episode 12: wedding kidnapping, jobbing Destroys, SF/IJ, Requiem, Messiah, etc.

>Shinn Asuka is the protagonist, a much angrier and traumatized lead than Kira was
>Minerva is the main characters' ship, taking a similar role to the Archangel
>Support cast: Captain Talia, XO (and comic relief) Arthur, the Hawke sisters, a gaggle of hangar crew, etc.

>Main antagonist faction is Phantom Pain
>The main rivals are Neo and the three Extended

>Neo Roanoke is related to Mwu la Flaga in some way, except evil
>Rey za Burrel is related to Rau le Creuset in some way (most likely another clone), except good

>There is something shady going on with PLANT Chairman Durandal, especially with his fake "Lacus Clyne".
>Athrun is goaded by Durandal to fight for ZAFT once again, including a shiny new red Gundam

OP here.
Since this is in autosage, the idea of this thread was for all of (You) to give your best ideas as to how Destiny could've been improved from the promise of its early episodes, not make this yet another "CE General".
Needless to say, with some exceptions like >>22580388 or >>22579666, all of you failed utterly at it. I still remember when /m/ could throw story ideas for hours.

At least bikinischizo didn't show up with his nonsense, so that's a good thing.

Maybe if Athrun fell for her after she sacrificed herself to protect him.

>>22588468
Athrun could have fallen in love with Meyrin with a good writing, and without the need of a sacrifice.

Just started watching Baldios and I have to say I'm in love, both with the show and this crazy bitch.
Can't say much about the plot or setting yet other than having a very nice set up so far with things moving rather quickly, I hope the titular robot shows up soon.

Baldios had a different face during pre-production. That's one of the easier things to change even if you're making a toy.

Pretty much every titular robot gets design changes during production.

And yet, Baldios came out at the awkward time when Gundam wasn’t a success at all. It aired roughly a few months after it ended and it would take a while for the Gundam boom to start. Why would they mimic a show that failed?

The designer thought Okawara's facial designs were hot to trot.

>Unmanned Nemo does exponentially better than the average Nemo pilot
I honestly really like the Nemo aesthetically, and I appreciate the unique color scheme, but spec wise I doubt it's better than the GMII
>>
>>22586003
It was designed afterwards and not expected to be retrofitted from an existing GM, wouldn't be surprised if it edges out the GMII just from being built from the ground-up with modern tech.
>>
>>22524313
literally the reason given in the TV show why it was so important for the gundam and white base to reach jaburo was because they wanted the data from the learning computer to update their GMs with rather than the gundam itself.
>>
>>22586056
You're making that up. The GMs aren't even mentioned until after they're inside Jaburo

I just think they're boring. Dermail and the other mobile doll obsessed guy I can't even remember the name of are losers and nowhere near as entertaining as Treize or Zechs, and they don't really bring anything new to the table either before they both die pathetically in retarded fashion and hand political power over to the next group of dipshits.

How would you design your ideal combiner?
Number of components?
Vehicle variation?
Symmetrical or asymmetrical?

>with the other limb Stunticons just clipping onto the limbs
That's almost literally what the original Menasor in the G1 cartoon had going on as well.

I still have the actual G1 stunticon set here on a display shelf in my book case.
It was a rare case of the vehicles being almost to scale and the combiner form working out pretty well.
It was Motormaster himself which came out way too chunky though. Despite the fact that they even did some pretty neat stuff for its time, where the groin area had this neat telescoping hinges hidden in the upper legs which you'd pull out and then bend 90 degrees outward to widen the hips when forming Menasor.

And it was designed that way going in. Big moth was always meant to be the main body so it was designed with a main body that works for the combined form.

So everyone is a bit confused by this to the point G-セルフ was trending. Seems like the kit has gotten popular and a bunch of scalpers when after the new stock. MG G-Self is still a bit of a meme and some wonder if the movies have finally started to gain some traction.

Related to this, I remember seeing a video of a build where the guy filmed next to his window right up high in a skyscraper, white walls, bright.
I remember the video being chill asf but can't find the guy for the life of me, I don't even remember what the build was either. (was a while ago I watched it)
Anyone know who this guy would be?
