-=READ THE GUIDES=-

Welcome to the Gunpla/Plamo General!

For those new, please read our guides. We have many resources available to help you in many different aspects of the hobby. They're here for you!

For the unclear, "plamo" is short for "plastic model". "Gunpla" is thus short for "Gundam plastic model". Many different kinds of models are built here, ranging from mecha to planes, cars, musume, you name it! If you're new, you're gonna screw up. Don't worry! If you're seasoned, don't make the newbies worry!

And don't forget to report shitposting and spam. The mods don't browse /m/ too often, so it's up to YOU to help keep our general clean and civil!

>Why won't anyone answer my question?
Be more specific, and try to provide clear images if you can.

>Why are my pictures sideways?
4chan strips EXIF data when images are uploaded, including the orientation tag if it's from your phone. To fix it save out your images separately, or use an app that will rotate and save the images for you.

Maybe only for the main villains, the rest can be used from whatever source, which is exactly what they did in the last seasons, just random monsters from Lupat and Zyoh.
>>
>>23703895
Depends on what hasn't rotted away already. If they go back to using Sentai footage as a last resort, Gozyuger's No One motws would be the ones in the best condition followed by Boomboonger's motws.
Kiramager would be the "safest" one to use (as in Ranger suit footage) and maybe KingOhger. Zenkaiger and Gozyuger are anniversary seasons and Donbrothers is just...weird.

Anon, look at the pic by Bruce Timm poking fun at censors at the time
Children couldn't be in danger in Batman TAS
Bandora's son dying on screen with blood on his face would not pass for a live action kids series for Burgerland in the 90's.
Hell, even in the the modern day pic related only got passed because the character technically isn't even human.
Zyuranger isn't this horribly gory work or anything, it's just that American standards for violence are so pants on head backwards that the fucking Demon Slayer movie is Rated R

Macek directed the English dub for ADV and it was pretty terrible. The fact they were trying to market it to Gundam and Robotech fans was equally bizarre. It ended up selling so poorly that they offered rebates for free discs with the final few being notoriously hard to track down on the aftermarket.

>>
>>23704173
no I thought the story was fine, it's just the pacing and the direction were kind of all over the place
the movie doesn't look bad but it seemed to me like it kind of goes from one set piece to another in a disjointed way, for example the big cool mecha fight looks awesome but it doesn't last enough for you to get to enjoy the designs so it just ends up feeling tacked in (which I don't mind, being a mecha fan and all I'm all for it but it just adds up to the overall feel of the movie being kinda messy)
don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to nitpick the movie or anything, it's just the way I felt when watching it

Dividing the world into 3 economic zones is an old, and public, plan. Front Mission wasnt the only game, or work of fiction, to do something like that either.

if you got the chance to pilot your own mobile suit what do you think you would pick (or would fit you best?)

In Seed, Nuclear powered mobile suits have their advantages and disadvantages. After a few sorties, they will need their special catalyst replaced. They are also more prone to overheating due to the amount of energy that they produce and the amount of heat their weapons generate.

Battery powered mobile suits also doesn't require a special catalyst to replenish their energy gauge. Batteries can also be pretty efficient as seem with heavy beam artillery mobile suits like Calamity and heavy beam weaponry mobile suits like Akatsuki.
>>
>>23703757
There's even a battery-powered Strike Freedom, so energy consumption stops being an issue entirely even on battery MS after a while
>>
>>23703764
Strike Freedom I & II are still nuclear. You are thinking of Rising Freedom.

>>23703979
Can't remember the details but doesn't the movie have them using cucking battery powered versions to comply with the treaty?

If Gihren didn’t get killed by Kycilia, would Zeon have been able to win at A Baoa Qu?
18 replies omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>23698018
Beyond that, if he waited just a bit longer, there’s a possibility White Base could be taken out too, and without Degwin being killed, Kycilia might actually bring her forces from Granada to further bolster A Baoa Qu.
>>
>>23693835
Gihren's Greed is pretty clear that the answer is 'yes,' and that if he does die it's an automatic loss
>>
>>23698070
If they were so advanced how come they lost?
>>
>>23703147
Lack of manpower and infighting (Ramba Ral not getting his Doms, Dozle not getting Rick Doms for Solomon, obviously Kycilia leaving her fleet behind at Granada then killing Gihren)
>>
>>23703147
Infighting and the federation simply moved faster than they expected. Zeon got the solar ray out quickly, but not enough pilots into gelgoogs. The number of gelgoogs produced is all over the place too, from a few hundred to several hundred. But it's not like they couldn't make them fast enough, it's more like they couldn't get them into the hands of capable pilots fast enough.

Newtypes are sci-fi

>>23701351
rewatch first episode of Zeta, it's filled with cool colony shots that show its transportation and food storage.
Their is an upgrade in the joystick handles to cross hallways (which is changed again to portable shooting device in CCA), the MS suits have 360 degree view (taken from L-Gaim), we still have the O Neil Cylinders. There's also La Vie en Rose, which is a dockable spaceship used for repairs.
Cyber Newtypes are introduced and there is a developement for MS specifically suited for Newtypes.
Keep in mind that it's only been 7 years, there's not going to be any revolutionary breakthrough.

A containment thread fro synchtube related stuff over on Cytube. This includes....

m-adras-tea-and-film: Deacon has completely "usurped" control over the Tuesday timeslot and rules with an iron Hebrew fist.

PTSF-THRS: I still have the good ol' Thursday timeslot of nerdy programming.

mog-rog: Though he maybe injured currently, Dorkly will do his best at providing entertainment with one hand however he can on Fridays.

MGRnR200X: A more dormant weekend domain, many still await for the return of the Lord of the Land, Agguguy. One day he will grace the weekends with whatever he feels like showing.

All of these and more on our usual synchtube shenanigans!
