legally distinct ReZeon to start the thread
So how do you think the civil war will end? We already know ReZeon loses but still it would be interesting to think about what could happen and where it fits into late UC.
>>22954605We're never out of bunnygirls. Check Fujioka's twitter for official ones
>>22954624In general, yeah. But I'm fairly sure we used all the ones Fujioka drew at this point. I figure we can hold on with some other official art before moving on to fanart.
How many threads has it been since the last crumb of art
>>22954722More than any man should endure

>>22955100>agedI thought stasis pods were a pretty relevant plot element in ReBoot.
>>22955119is it perfect and would preserve them for decades and possibly longer, or does it need caretakers to maintain the pods
>>22955133Good question. You would expect good cryopods to be a priority of the project, given the whole "colonizing the stars" goal of the thing
>>22955347She's getting a regular release kit soon, trust the plan
>>22955362which one is the lucky rabbit foot?
So anyone nabbing? I emptied my pockets getting the MRD Zeta Plus A2 so I can't. Don't regret it though.
>>22955386Hazenthlay 1 is probably my least favorite TR suit, and they still made it look amazing
>>22955386the thin legs frustrate me
Ordered psychoblade and Brazam II, I might regret the former, not because I might not like the model, but because I currently lacked the tools to make it look pretty.But man, I wish they reprint Kehaar II more.
>>22955387What do you have against him? I like how he uses a whole TR-6 torso as sub arms. Fujioka seems to be only Gundam designer that doesn't think of his designs as guys in metal suits, with all the limitations that it brings.
>>22954620It's pretty much already over. Alicia's iron grip was strangling the Martian populace and could not be sustained anyway. How exactly the aftermath of the rebellion will lead into the shadow of an army that's Mars Zeon of UC 0110s and 0120s is another question, but ReZeon's fate is already clear.Black Rabbit had a Dream.Had.>A ridiculous, laughable dream.Alicia still lives. The manga will enter the Earth arc and there's no telling what will be revealed and what will happen there. TR-S is still waiting. It will all be lost like a dream, but something will still carry on into the future.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN_ac-K2DJU夢 それは 夢 夢
>>22955494I feel like it takes a Hazel and a HZII and makes something that doesn't look as good as either of them. The CSB is too rounded for the blocky limbs, the shoulder guns can't aim forward and it doesn't have a transformation that lets them do so either, and I've never been a fan of the extra high heel addon for Hazel legs. It's not a bad design by any means but I feel like the others do its job better
>>22955519Maybe the Titans remnants duke it out to the death with Mars Zeon after defeating ReZeon together.
I know basically nothing about Advance of Zeta but the Gullinbursti looks cool. Kestrel's pretty alright too.
>>22955652you're in for a treat since those are the worst-looking of the bunch
>>22955652yeah they're really neat, wish they got move love
>>22955652And of course I drop my image like a retard.
>>22955652>>22955658still carrying a torch for the idea of a Hazel optional armor mounted on the chest with a monoeye sensor, like the one that Build Mk-II's concept art had.
>built using GP Project data>by Earth supremacists>TRX model numberhmmm??
>>22955761I get what they were going for but it's a bit too on the nose
>>22955779Is it better if you know it's probably inspired by Kawamori's early draft for Dendrobium?
>>22955782No, in fact something closer to this would've been way cooler. Making a more humanoid Dendrobium is sick, but making it literally just rearranged dendrobium pieces sucks. They should've changed it up a bit to make it look a bit different. There's also a bunch of nitpicks with the design itself like the gun being backwards or an entire arm being taken up by the I-field when the original's I-field just covered the entire thing, no movement required. Also if we're being honest legs are completely unnecessary for a space-only anti-fleet turret. Also is that a camera bigger than most MS' heads on the big pod on the right? and can this hold guns in the "pilot's" arms or does it just have less firepower than the original? No giant beam saber claws either
>>22955789It can transform into a more traditional MA form, in the lineart the beam cannons are folded back for convenience but they could fold out just fine like that too. Also they have beam sabers built into them. The legs are here for AMBAC so it can be more agile and flexible in use. I-Field generator mounted like that is functionally speaking just a giant shield, really.For the record the backstory is it's a post 0083 project by an Earth supremacist group that tried reusing GP03 data for a base *assault* MA that would be sent at Axis, but they couldn't get it to work and the plan was eventually taken over by another group post-Gryps and finished using modern tech including Psycho Gundam data. The "Gundam" unit serving as the core is just a glorified escape pod made up of miscellaneous leftover GM parts with a little Gundam thrown in.
>>22955807Still seems like an inferior Dendrobium overall. I'm sure the paper specs are higher due to having newer tech, but at a glance it has less guns, can't use saber and cannon at the same time, the Gundam can't wield handheld guns, and having two massive beam cannons mounted in parallel like that is completely pointless. If the first shot hits the target is already destroyed, do you want to make another hole like 2m below the first one?
>>22955519I'm a little behind on the manga but do you think we'll get a definitive answer as to who or what Alicia even is? Or Omega for that matter?
wew, is it getting hot in here or is it just me?
>>22956171POV: You're a spacenoid aid convoy getting pulled over

>>22956237this one >>22954800
>>22956250I am now a loyal soldier of ReZeon. Hand me a Woundwort and point me at Mars Zeon, I'm ready
>>22956258Sorry mate all you get is a Hizack. But hey at least it's the combat spec.
>>22956263...Is it at least Vanargandr?
>>22956856
>>22955652
>>22955807Plus, it was piloted by who was essentially S1 Graham Aker but in the better UC setting.
>>22956949Blood?
>>22957043He has a time limit he can pilot that thing before the G-forces kill him outright. IIRC he still gets clapped by a backup of clone Scirocco who in turn gets gotten by the original clone.Walpurgis is weird.
AOZfags I'mma let you finish but conducting air operations against Titans shits alongside your flight leader Amuro Ray himself was THE place to be in Early UC
>>22957434hell yeah bestie
>>22957434This post got me thinking about the aerodynamism of AoZ designs. Is the Woundwort capable of atmospheric flight? Is the Hyzenthlay II? Even still in a dogfight between them and a Z+ A1, I'd bet my money on the Zeta. Though that might just be biased because the Z+ looks like an air superiority fighter in wave rider mode.
>>22957643No, only the Kehaar forms and the Icarus units can. Hrairoos too. I think Dantalions can glide but not fly? Then you've got the Queenly forms that need a big ass minovsky craft pod to fly
>>22957643Woundwort has enough thrust to fly in the atmosphere in MA mode, though naturally it's not completely specialized for that. It might not have to transform completely though as it has an intermediate form with only the legs folded and aligned into MA mode.Haze'n-thley II by itself has sheer thrust to be effective in atmospheric combat in MA mode, though it's noted to be akin to a missile.Haze'n-thly II Rah II can outright escape the atmosphere through its sheer thrust with a fuel tank attached, which is almost certainly a direct reference to Ex-S Gundam which can do the exact same thing.For projected Zeta Gundam successors like the Zeta Plus and Delta Plus series the intended counter is Hrairoo II, the Gaplant replacement focused on high attitude interceptions. As far as we know it was never used in combat so it's anyone's guess how it would work in practice but it is designed with the intent of matching and surpassing them.
>>22957043Maybe that manga page has an awkward translation, basically when moving with extreme speeds acceleration and movement, bloodflow can move around your body in unintended wayse.g., pilots pull a hard turn and the blood can flow away from the brain and cause them to lose consciousness and black out. gear exists for this, pressure suits or G-suits compress the body to force blood from flowing to certain parts of your body and away from the brainhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-suit
>>22957658>it has an intermediate form with only the legs folded and aligned into MA mode.pics?
>>22957658Was the Delta Plus even real by the time of the TTT? I thought that line didn't get started until after Char's rebellion. By the Gryps War the Delta line was still at the Delta Gundam/Hyaku Shiki stage.
>>22957674Key word there is "projected". They didn't know what came after Zeta, but they knew roughly what capabilities it'd jave and designed a MS to match those capabilities
>>22957665front and center>>22957674It is described as countering suits "like" these. Just like how they wouldn't know what exactly Zeta Plus is till they encounter it or spy information and how they just projected likely performance and capabilities of ZZ, S or Queen Mansa based on available data and knowledge. Though for what it's worth Delta Plus was actually developed in UC 0090 (by the time of Unicorn it's an old, forgotten prototype that's not cancelled only by technicality) and Anaheim was already considering functional Delta models during the Gryps Conflict.
>>22957665another example from the volume 5 cover
>>22957679For an old forgotten prototype it sure performs well
>>22957683In sheer combat specs, sure, but it's also nothing groundbreaking compared to Zeta. And it was intended as a mass produced unit despite being from a completely different and separate production line than Jegan, making maintenance and supply an absolute nightmare.
>>22957683gundam is chock full of old forgotten prototypes that are leagues ahead of the baseline grunts
>>22957679huhalso just notice the blade has a slightly different design in that pic
>>22957690you mean the heat blade? The beam gun barrel can split for higher power mode, though Reboot has a lot of depictions where it's strangely uneven like that.
man all this talk makes me with HF Part 2 shows what came next in the mass produced Zeta line after the Zeta Plus and the ReZEL
>>22957707We know a tad later there was a project for a miniaturized Zeta successor but it fell through, the head design was reused for G-Custom.
>>22957707nothing, it's a dead end
>>22957711spoilsport
>>22957710damn if it don't look good>>22957714sorry it be like that
>>22957710The heck is this? Are those Strike Freedom wings on its ass?
>>22957738your eyes are kinda fuck since it's not even the same silhouette
>>22957738The gist is it's a Prototype Hardygun souped up with some MSA-120 tech, officially as just a test-only Anaheim one-off, in reality at least two units were deployed to Anaheim's spec ops team tasked with spying on and gathering data on the F90 tests and combat deployments.
>>22957754Use your imagination>>22957820What does the ass binder do?
>>22958224It's a purgable Sturm Thruster Unit with a Mega Boost system installed and space for some weapons
Psycho Mk-II cannot come soon enough
>>22959096What exactly is "mega boost"? Apparently it's somethin Draig can do too right?
>>22959255uses e-pacs as consumable items to improve performance
>>22959255feed nearly superchaged Minovsky particles from the E-Pac into the reactor for an output boost into the thrusters"negligible" risk of reactor going out of control
>>22959266>>22959269So like a UC version of Trans-Am?
>>22959311Trans-Am doesn't run the risk of damaging any hardware on proper GN Drives and it's an all around overclock, not for sheer speed.A closer comparison would be real life nitro boost, matter of fact that's exactly what it's been compared to.
>>22959320>A closer comparison would be real life nitro boost, matter of fact that's exactly what it's been compared to.or the emergency power setting on old fighter planes that would inject a chemical mixture into the engines to dramatically improve performancehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_emergency_powerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MW_50
>>22959320Oh, so it's liteeally the Noz button from Fast and Furious, or the nitro pills feom Redline. Fuckin' love it. Please tell me there's a big red button that enables it
>>22959379You probably have to toss a newtype into a meat grinder to activate it knowing non-mainline AE engineering
>>22959384I don't think Draig has any NT features, in fact wasn't it proposed as a MP suit? It does have some sorr of gravity cannon/railgun so the danger of attracting Space Kaiju is there.
>>22959355Could very well be an intentional reference too, there's a bunch of aircraft development history tidbits in the entire F90/MSA-120 thing.
>>22959415Does that make the F99 into the SR-71?
>>22959446no that's XC
>>22959464Looks more like an F-117 that grew legs
on the topic of late UC, it would have been cool to see some bits in the DUST "kitbashes". Far more obscure stuff was referenced there.
>>22959630I feel like the artstyle would clash too much and Hasegawa would have trouble drawing them accurately to do it justice, if he was going to do it then it'd be highly simplified.
>>22959630Gundam authors can't be trusted with the power that comes from Wundy parts. All kitbashes using them would basicaly be femboy versions of the MS
>>22960255>J*vian techDisgusting
>>22960416screw you too
>>22960438you just know the TTT begged on their knees for Chadtimus to share the Messala booster
>>22960441Well, we do know at least one guy involved in TR Plan was buddies with Scirocco
>>22951996Hopefully that means Banjew is planning on releasing the standalone Advanced Hrairoo/Hrairoo II parts soon.And with a bootleg TR-6 out, it's not even a pain to buy a second one to get another pair of CSB for the Hrairoo II config. Thanks, Zhang.
>>22960448>Admires Jovians>"Insidious">TraitorIt fits
>>22957248>>22960448Considering Walpurgis also has deep space shenanigans, cloning and brain uploading I'd say Jovians are closest we get to the TR plan outside of AOZ.
>>22960479Crossbone too, with the bio-brains and all that.
>>22957658Honestly, would the Hrairoo II even be an improvement over the Gaplant? I doubt the CSBs would offer much thrust over the Gaplant's shield binders since it has to make space for a folding heat blade mechanism + beam cannon + I-field generator.I have the feeling the Woundwort's ass booster pod wouldn't be any better than the Gaplant's back booster either.
Speaking of Jupiter, does any material mention what goes on in the moons? If Mars can be terraformed surely Jupiter's moons are even easier to terraform.
>>22960492Jupiter Empire has a military outpost on Io but that's about all we know IIRC. Mars was initially fancied as a major project before Earth Sphere colonies became the obvious choice so the terraforming process had a lot of time and resources poured into it. Meanwhile Jupiter Sphere infrastructure was always built around H3 mining rather than being a major population center.
>>22960498I thought Jovians were rich as fuck due to said H3 trade. But crossbone mentions how their colonies face scarcity and every resource is precious. Maybe they should've uaed that money to improve their living conditions instead of bankrolling various anti-earth groups...
>>22960490It doesn't even need to be a massive performance improvement, just using the same core platform and standardized parts that can be switched out in a few minutes makes it a massive improvement in actual operational capacity.Plus, the CBSs have the additional boosters attached on them, the same kind that make TR-5 Advanced Hrairoo a speed fiend that needs support struts in the back to hold together at full throttle. And also one half of that on the weapon container. That's a whole lot of thrust, and in all likelihood Woundwort alone is a fair bit lighter than Gaplant. With all the extra equipment stacked it probably ends up heavier but has more than proportional thruster increase, plus the aforementioned usability benefits.
>>22960506In all likelihood they could have been a perfectly prosperous if small nation. But Dogatie turned a legitimate grievance into an obsession that consumed his life and developed a state built around absolute loyalty and cult of strength. He never gave a shit about the people or the future, he just wanted to see Earth burn.Even after his death and the following shenanigans, it would take decades for Jupiter to start recovering and turning into a decent place to live
tangentially related due to the setting and possible references, Wearwolf manga scantalation is gonna be up to date next week
How fast can transforming MS fly in atmosphere? They're full of rocket boosters so you'd expect supersonic or even hypersonic speeds, but they're never depicted travelling that fast (And also heat from air resistance would be incedible). Then again, some MS like picrel can escape the atmosphere under their ow thrust
>>22961127They gave some speed ratings for things in older material around Z Gundam but I'm not sure they actually say much about it now. One of the big things about Penelope and Xi, aside from M-Craft granting "anti-grav" of sorts, is that they've got beam barriers to sustain supersonic.
>>22961127We have some numbers or comparative descriptions but they're always arbitrary like most stats, don't take them to heart or think about it too hard. Like the other anon said Penelope and Xi have Beam Barriers which negate air resistance and enable supersonic movement, IIRC Xi can reach Mach 2.Also [Fiver] does actually use a booster to go into low orbit, it's basically a ballistic missile.
Hazel Hazel Hazel!December 1st is 121 is RX-121 is Hazel day!
>>22961165Oh nice, it gets two gaplant boosters and a nosecone? First time seeing that arrangement. Nosecone almost looks like a Hambrabi, or even an Abigor
My Hrairoo looks kinda weird
>>22961430>no chinsoiled it
>>22961475The entire thing is obviously overdesigned, but I really like the addition of shoulder cannons.
>>22961119Is that the one with a miniature Psyco Gudnam with Gaplant binders?
>>22962118For a second I thought this was a Woundwort vtuber avatar
>>22960640What you're saying is making a lot of sense. A Zeta Plus being intercepted mid flight by this experimental Titans machine would make for a sick encounter. Dogfights between transforming MS is something that we haven't really seen before in the franchise, I think, which is odd.HF Part 2, take us home.>>22961486>overdesignedThat's saying the least. The first Chinese designer that figures out when to stop drawing when making a new mecha design is going to be hailed as the second coming of Katoki.
>>22962208I wonder in what context a Z+ could ever face a TTT MS.
>>22962431wdym? it's aeug vs titans
>Hazel ground typeenlightened idea
>>22962431Z Plus deployment began probably in November so theoretically there was about a 3 month window where it could have engaged any number of Titan suits before the civil war officially ended, nevermind what happened afterwards.
>>22962435>>22962568Really? I thought it was developed post-conflict. Imagine Jerid's PTSD if he saw a squad of Zeta pluses coming at him
>>22962208In SEED Destiny there's a cool dogfight between the Saviour and the Murasames. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TW4bd2Hj_vY

Really want this long Hazel beam rifle in plastic form.
Long rifles are so cool
>>22964240Could probably make one using a Gelgoog Jager or Cima rifle
>>22964240What are the bits on the shield?
>>22964705Spare barrels maybe.
>>22964705Replacement barrels for when the first overheats
>>22964716>>22964856I always find it funny when the concept of durability is brought up in Gundam, because it's usually a one-off thing that the rest of the setting ignores. So you get snipers with overheating barrels but then mega launchers spam fire, or you get beam magnums with "high recoil" abd beam recoil is never mentioned anywhere else in the setting
>>22964963Evidently it's not a problem with these weapons, either because they're better designed or something else gets in the way first. Beam weapon recoil isn't exactly a new thing either, we see it all the way back in the original series and every other rifle has a secondary rifle for a reason.Incidentally, beam magnum is another good case of an overheating example - the mag size limit is set the way it is because any more rapid fire would permanently damage the barrel. It can be counteracted with carrying spare mags, but for the most part if Unicorn is used the way it's intended the overheating is not a problem. Otherwise there's a flaw on the strategic side.
>>22964963Just like a lot of other things in the franchise then, like cooling, gravity, weight distribution, etc

On a more AoZ-related note, I think we found the newest MkV derivative
>>22966561Nothing new about D Gundam and it's not related to Mk-V, it's a civilian made suit from scanned junk made to look like a Gundam because the owner is a fanboy. I think the manga it's from is from early 90s?Still awesome to see it feature in modern stuff.

Fellas, what do we know about BUNNyS in total? Due to how decentralized the info is, I can barely find anything about it. All I know is something something newtype children's souls a la EXAM and something something TR suit compatibility
>>22970812It's an operating system somehow developed out of dead newtype chidlren, there's a chapter in the manga/prequel chapter that deals with this. It's meant to help the MS quickly adapt to the reconfigurations, and takes a lot of work off the pilot by managing a lot of the equipment. For example, before BUNNyS, suits with multiple arms like gigantic units could only use one set of arms at a time, or only fire one type of gun at a time, etc. Think of it like an AI copilot.
>>22970818Does it do funky newtype shit like, say, EXAM was supposed to do? Or is it purely for piloting convenience?
>>22970826Seems like it's just fighting convenience. I haven't read the untranslated parts of the manga, but it doesn't seem like it ever drives people insane or makes them go schizo.
>>22970829nta but while maybe it's not the BUNNyS itself, *something* about Inle is making children hear a song and see visions
>>22970831I thought that was Alicia, being a powerful newtype and all. She regularly goes into hybernation phases called "cocooning", which sounds ominous as fuck. She's likely the one sending out the mind whammy waves
>>22970877I think that's likely, since this kid in ch.1 outright says that it was Alicia who was singing that song
>>22970894Purus were tired of being chased by predators, so they became what they sought to destroy and are now luring the children in. Cycle of abuse and all that
My hunch is that whenever Alicia cocoons she interfaces with Inle- or more specifically- the human elements of its operating system. She’s singing to the dead children

>>22966016>>22969520The stories good, does a good job of merging early UC and Late UC in a way that makes sense.The mobile suits look great. I also like how they incorporate the SNES game's Bisecting animation into the manga.
>>22971722Their is one of a GM cannon II getting the same treatment with the mid section melted.
>>22971726Also like how their is also AEUG remnants who are unsatisfied with the status quo.
>>22971722Yeah I've been reading it, already up to the edgelord F90 N-type chapter. What is it with Gundam and edgelord pilots? This is 00 all over again.The mecha are cool though, Patty was a badass
>>22971722SNES pic>>22971738Patty was cool. Is there any other edgelord pilots in UC besides her son?
>>22971747First one that comes to mind, but I'm sure there are more
>>22971679Wew lad
>>22954624What's their Twitter?

>>22971747>Is there any other edgelord pilots in UCtechnically not mainline UC but Io Flemming and Origin Char. Also >>22971760 dunno why there are so many edgy blondes
These are AoZ Marasais right?
>>22972697The front one is equipped with the cannon pack and extra chest armor from AoZ, yeah
>>22972704Sweet. Does the armor have any sort of I-field or the like? By the time the Marasai was out they were already firmly in the "armor is useless cause beams" mindset
>>22972710No, it's just a physical slab, but maybe it could have anti-beam coating. I-field on any mobile suit remains firmly rooted in the "special snowflake only" category for many years to come, even though it's technically possible to apply to a grunt suit.
>>22972710It can be equipped with a small diffusion beam that can shoot down missiles or try and counter beam fire, but it's mostly just for cockpit protection. An I-Field would be too much for a suit at that time. This gear also predates Marasai by a few years since it was designed for Hizack first.>armor is useless cause beamsThat is a bit of an oversimplification, even Mk-II which is designed around agility for that reason carries a shield, for example. Beam-reflective coatings have been in use since late OYW and are effective and will continue to be effective for years to come, it's just that "effective" in terms of anti-beam armor means a few shots at most. Still enough to save lives though.
>>22972719>>22972726So it's more or less a 1 to 1 with IRL bulletproof vests /plates. Stops weaker shots, might stop a couple shots from a real military gun but don't risk it
>>22972855Funnels look like snakes
>>22972855gives me devil gundam vibes
>>22972855What piece of art do the funnels come from?
>>22973711IIRC there's one that shows all the possible things you can stuff in the weapon containers, with funnels being one of them. Also Puru hot tubs
>>22973725It's really neat how they're based on the Zorin Soul's.
>>22973728These things? Bit of a reach
>>22973738They're literally the only other tri-fin open barrel beam design in the franchise, closer to them than any other bit.
>>22973740Maybe he was inspired by Star Wars. Wouldn't be the first time.
>>22973728>>22973738>>22973740>>22973742They also have the same launching mode, where they're stored witch each of the three sides in a line and they connect the ends only after launching.
>>22974390What a fanky mechanism. But also really cool. Can I get a QRD on Gaia Gear?
>>22974397>QRD on Gaia Gearnovel Tomino wrote trying to divorce himself from the identity of Gundam as an IP while still being in the same setting, main themes are around Earth preservation and healing. Very rarely referenced by anything else directly but a lot of terminology and tech from it shows up in CCA, Hathaway, Victory etc.
>>22974390And for comparison's sake here is the TR-6's funnel launching mechanism
>>22974409Okay, the resemblance from that front shot is undeniable

In fact, do you think some ex-titans engineers made itto SNRI?
>>22974837Titans controlled Federation's in-house weapons development like the various arsenals or Newtype Institutes, nevermind directly started and ran several.After Federation got cozy with Anaheim again these groups and personnel inevitably took the backseat, but SNRI was already established as a unified in-house think tank by UC 0093, though it would take a long time before challenging Anaheim was a realistic goal.In short, yes. There's inevitably going to be overlap between them.Matter of fact. Monthly Mobile Machine explicitly namedrops NAMSD Labs as an institute where some TR Plan personnel found themselves in down the line and that it cooperated with and was later absorbed into SNRI. They are known to have been involved in BR-GM C2 which is closely tied to the TR Plan vision of Barzam, and later also worked on F89, the mass production type F90.And F90 itself is conceptually very similar to TR-6 as a general purpose Gundam model with great versatility through optional equipment. Every other Reboot volume on TR-6 references it, too.
>>22974837SNRI are just eggheads, they got none of that edge and they let AE bully them secretly with the silhouette project and openly with the G-Cannon.
>>22974884Just eggheads!?
>>22974887I thought LM worked with Anaheim, and by that point SNRI had been disbanded by the Feds because that one branch of SNRI conspired with Side 2 Amelia to form Zanscare.
>>22974899SNRI is still alive and well, it's only the Side 2 branch that became BESPA and the rest was entirely uninvolved. Both it and Anaheim cooperated with League Militaire, though the exact extent is a bit unclear. IIRC some card game or other states the Victory series was built by Anaheim itself, but most sources indicate they only provided the locations on the Moon and didn't take an active part in the development.Meanwhile F90FF had Otis here show up and have him take part in Minovsky Drive tests. Meanwhile old man Romera was apparently the project leader at Anaheim for designing F71. It's cool how by the time of Victory they're both just old, long retired guys working together to resist Zanscare's invasion and support child soldie- hold up.Also do NOT ask what Count Oy Nyung was doing back in the day.
>>22974880The manga also has an interview with AI scientists talking about the f90's advanced personality AI, and they mention how it might be bases off older systems that captured the "soul" of people like EXAM and other systems that aren't names and are dismissed as conspiracy theories. And then the scientist gets assasinated. Now, I'm not saying it's BUNNyS..., but Mars Zeon did make their own F90 complete with gigantic arms...
>>22974913When does Oy Nung show up? I completely overlooked him if he did.
>>22975353He doesn't show up in person but he composed the report on remnants and other minor military groups and factions that Hauzerie showed to Dir. In other words, an in-depth investigation into several radical armed groups in all corners of the Earth Sphere including their origins, composition, goals and operation style. Hauzerie also calls him a "friend".
>>22975448So this is basically a hit list against enemies of the state
>>22975544Also worth noting that one source states he was a Manhunter higher up before retiring. You know, the guys that can and do employ even military vehicles in the process of resettling illegal residents into space. They're not Titans level but they are a police unit with the tools and influence of a military group yet their primary task is dealing with unarmed civilians whose crime is not paying off Feddie bigwigs fast enough.And Nyung left them because he was tired of the bureaucracy of his position.This is all from an encyclopedia from the 90s so not long after show release but also not really referenced by anything since then - not that there were many chances to explore his character in the meantime. Either way, don't necessarily take it as gospel.Having him be in charge of this report could be a reference to this backstory or reinterpreting him as a turbo glowie, it's hard to say for now.
>>22975570>Look, all the ojiisans are making their heroic sacrifice at the end of Victory, how sad!>Wait, why are their souls going down to hell?
>>22975584None of the other guys seem to have done anything too awful (you know, besides some making weapons of war for a living before and now using a 13 year old as their turbo ace) and to be fair that last stand was fucking badass and one of the peaks of the entire franchise. Nyung got offed way earlier, but he still came off as a pretty chill and good dude, it's entirely possible he mellowed out or had a change of heart with age.
>>22974884Anaheim got triple fucked by SNRI, Buch and Jupiter SNRI conspiring together.SNRI never intended to let AE die completely so leaking their tech to ensure that they wouldn't fall too far behind was a deliberate choice.>>22974899Victory was designed by SNRI based on Cluster. Anaheim was in a bad state at the time and had to loan their factories.
>>22976004>leaking their tech to ensure that they wouldn't fall too far behind was a deliberate choiceI thought that was Federation Officials wanting AE to stay afloat because new thing bad
Update tomorrow. I can feel it in my subarms.
>>22976058Both.SNRI doesn't have mass-production lines big enough for EFF.Had F80 won the competition against Proto-Jamesgun and Hardygun, it would be given to Anaheim to be mass produced too.
>>22976259Thank you for your service, Fujioka-san.
>>22976259If your sub-arm stays extended for more than four hours, consult your mechanic
>>22976259Not an update but he did post box arts for an unrelated series he's involved in. It's really funny to see how with AoZ Fujioka is actively holding back on the moe.
>>22976730Woundwort is as close as you can get to Mecha Musume while still being an actual mech
>>22976736You sure mate?>Reminder Fujioka is a big Katoki fan
>>22976738That's just the Grandaddy in drag. Woundwort forms are closer to traditional mecha musume, thye're all basically a tiny girl(male) wearing oversized mecha parts
>>22976754With some forms, straight up replacing Woundwort with an anime girl barely makes a difference
>>22976757It almost looks like she has protheses... as if her body was paralyzed and then replaced with new, glorious iron and steel.Hol up
>>22976764Ever closer to perfection

how is your collection coming along bros
>>22977091Which one's your favorite? please fix Hazenthley II's pose please I'm begging you you're doing her so dirty
There's a lot of potential in that Super Barzam MS Girl figure...
>>22977117Wait, that's amazing, I didn't know this existed. What's the backpack?
>>22977117It's fucking insanity that Bandai is trying to chase after Koto's FAG and Megami Device lines with their shitty 30 Minute Sisters line instead of just doing mecha musume of classic MS designs. I loathe Bandai so much it's un-fucking-real.
>>22977098>please fix Hazenthley II's pose please I'm begging you you're doing her so dirtywha-what do you want me to do with him?? he's not a poser and that's the best I can make him look when deploying the CSB in claw modethe only other alternative is just standing there holding the CSB like in the lineart
>>22977123She looks like she's T-posing. Change the angle of the arms and legs a bit, maybe twist the head. Obviously she's not too flexible but try something like this (without the weapons of course)
>>22977091Still a mistake that I started with the mg hazel.
>>22977091>Gigantic arms hazel assembling her long beam rifle with the sub-arms100% stealing that once I get round to building mine
>>22977119Apparently it's part of a pretty short figure series called Armor Girls Project that included some Gundam girls. It's also inexplicably compatible with robot spirits so buying the MS Girl is how you can make a regular Super Refined Barzam figure because it's funny I guess.See pic related, and also with Full Armor Mk-II parts strapped on sans chest. Makes sense these fit, really.I can't find any good pics of the backpack structure right now but I think it's pretty much just the G-Defenser with the escape pod still stuck in. The reason it looks so nuts is that the AGP figures come with this sub arm set attached onto the lower back. It's made up of these triangular portions and has four sub arms stuck on the back. I think these are to help the girls hold their guns and pose more fluidly with them but they can be used for crazier things too.Incidentally, the G-Defenser binders being mounted this way reminds me of how old lore mentioned there were plans to equip them with claws, beam cannons etc. besides just missiles and nobody has done anything with that tidbit in 40 years. Maybe when Reboot gets to the Earth arc? Fujioka already teased that Super Barzam...>>22977121You have to understand, Bandai is fucking stupid and there's no excuses to the countless wasted opportunities they keep squandering.
>>22977091can't post a decent quality pic right now but at the moment:>Gaplant TR-5 (the retail one)>TR-1 Advanced Hazel>TR-1 Hazel II>TR-6 Hazel II>TR-6 Woundwort (bootleg)>TR-6 Woundwort Psycho Blade (bootleg)>Hrududu II set x2 (bootleg)
she's so fucking pretty man
>>22977959Is the head just lying there conveniently covered by the binder from this angle?
>>22977966I don't think we have a detailed description of how the transformation works for now, but I think given the proportions it's more likely the head is still in the same place but covered up by the cowl that moved from the back.
>>22978896Fair point. That's how HZII does it right?
>>22979114On Haze'n-thley II (and base Woundwort too) the booster covers the head in the transformation but there's a bit more rotating involved. Makes sense if TR-6 is designed as a variable suit from the start whereas TR-S is like a Hazel on steroids and only really achieves that with additional equipment, the base Hazel Hrair is most likely not transformable.
>>22977091Just got my woundwort and advanced hazel, waiting on the hazel custom and primrose to arrive.
>>22966561And just a few days later, it's getting a kit. Funny how these things work. Double Fake isn't directly related to AoZ in any capacity but it has the first (kind of) appearance of BR-GM.
>>22980566Proportions are kinda wacky, but I will always support more MS shotguns
>>22980569That's just staying true to the design
>>22980566>Double Fake isn't directly related to AoZWell, not explicitly anyway. I'm not saying D Gundam Third's waist section is very similar to Barzam but I am saying D Gundam was first built out of scavenged junk after the first Neo Zeon War and Third was upgraded and refitted by Federation with cutting edge tech.
>>22971943I WILL put a wedding ring on her drum frame
>>22980606Model kits often fix proportions. Then again maybe this thing is meant to look goofy since it's a forklift with a bodykit
Zeonic finished translating the Flag of Titans novelhere's volume 2https://zeonic-republic.net/translation/aoz_vol02.pdfYou can find all the chapters, including vol 1, herehttps://zeonic-republic.net/?page_id=141
>>22981871That's Hazenthley 1 right?
>>22981876Nope, Haze'n-thley II. Or as it's called in the novel, Woundwort EX.
>>22981883Is there an illustration with all the head variants? I could swear HZII didn't have a Gundam face>Woundwort EXOh god the naming scheme is getting further tangled up
>>22981897HZII does have a Gundam face, but it also has the alternate elongated chin version.
>>22981897>Is there an illustration with all the head variants?I don't believe so, no. Been thinking about trying to compile them but that's easier said than done.> I could swear HZII didn't have a Gundam faceWoundy (probably) always has a proper Gundam face, it can just be covered up by top parts or the Mk-V-style spiky chin. Regular Haze'n-thley II is typically depicted with that whereas Rah-II usually has a bare face.>Oh god the naming scheme is getting further tangled upAlways has been. Don't forget Advanced Woundwort too. It is explained as in-universe confusion and misunderstandings due to the unique naming system and communication problems in the late war chaos.
>>22981916There is a decent enough drawing that shows how the Woundwort head just adds and removes bits to form some of the common ones though.Then there's four eyed Woundworts somewhere?
>>22981936Yeah we have this handy drawing but it's not comprehensive and we don't know if it's completely accurate with Reboot adjustments.Take a look at Woundy's head before Haze'n-thley II parts are added here >>22981883 . This design is also used for depicting the modification into Barzam II's head, though with the v-fin removed.It's pretty different from the bare form depicted in this pic byt it's anyone's guess if this is a redesign of it or a separate thing, it could go either way.Then there's the other forms like Kehaar II or the v-fin-less big sensor for Queenly. Or the four eyed one that cameod in Try with no explanation. The main lineart for Woundwort also kinda looks like it has four eyes but all other drawings are clearly normal dual sensor so it's a strange situation.This fanart >>22965797 has some good interpretation of it based on Fujioka's comments but it's still fanart and not necessarily totally accurate.
I know a lot of TTT MS were designed to be equals/counters to current and projected enemy MS, for example the Hazen-thley II was meant to counter the ZZ. But which of the MS is the counter/match to the actual Zeta gundam?
>>22982978Broadly speaking Gaplant has similar capabilities and by extension Hrairoo II should still be a good matchup to it just like for Zeta Plus.Hrairoo II is specialized for high attitude interception against atmospheric entries and other fighters but this isn't the only environment where Zeta Plus operates so odds are it can still contend with it well closer to ground or in space.Mk-III Halpuley was designed as a counter against Zeta too but that's not a TR Plan suit.
Is Hazel compatible with the G-defenser? Can you make a Super Hazel?>>22982988Completely forgot about this. I guess Zeta gets outperfomerd halfway through the show too, much like how the Grandaddy was outperformed by Googs eventually. I imagine something like a Bawoo is plain better than Zeta then?
>>22983178>Is Hazel compatible with the G-defenser? Can you make a Super Hazel?I believe the correct answer here would be "no, but actually yes". Hazel's regular backpack with booster pod is unlikely to be able to interface with G-Defenser but thanks to Trans Pack system the whole backpack can be easily switched out to Mk-II's. Then you can plug in G-Defenser no problem. There might be some software incompatibility but not to an extent that it can't be fixed.>I guess Zeta gets outperfomerd halfway through the show tooNot quite the same situation since Zeta only showed up halfway through the show, and while tech progressed real fucking fast it was never matched by mass produced. One-offs and prototypes are another matter, but much like with Amuro Kamille was definitely smoothing out any gaps.I wouldn't say Bawoo is superior to Zeta, really. It is better suited to mass production and when comparing base loadouts Bawoo has more firepower, but the separation-transformation system is more of an alternative rather than outright upgrade to Waverider Mode. Also, no Biosensor.
>>22983203I imagine BUNNyS would help with any software compatibilities. Probably. Although I'm not sure if Hazels ever got it, or if it only started being used with Woundworts. Then again, Hazenthley probably has it, though it uses a Woundwort-based core...
>>22983207BUNNyS would handle it all in a flash, yeah. But even without that it's just the kind of thing mechanics do anyway. Either way, Hazel didn't have BUNNyS, that was only uploaded into TR-6 and potentially TR-5. TR-1 Haze'n-thley uses a Primrose II with Woundwort's torso and arms as a sub arm unit, and that also doubles as a processing unit for BUNNyS installed in it and supporting the entire MS.However even without that late Primrose models were designed with enhanced compatibility in mind as predecessor and prototype to BUNNyS and TR-6's universal conversion system. It has a small subarm that can latch onto and interface with any Federation-made backpack beyond just Trans Pack system standard. Mk-II is already made with that in mind but having that enhanced compatibility could help mount the G-Defenser more easily.And, of course, a Drum Frame based platform like TR-6 or Barzam could attach a G-Defenser directly onto their back without needing Mk-II backpack as an intermediary.
>>22983207>>22983223Case in point, SSD's Super Barzam that sure as hell isn't using Mk-II's backpack.
>>22983223>>22983224That's sick. So in theory, if a squadron equipped with TTT MS took over say, an AEUF base, they could feasibly use a lot of their parts to upgrade their own units right? Literally wearing the skins of their enemies.A thought just came to me. How exactly does the GP03 connect to Dendrobium? Just imagine a Barzam II as the core unit, using it's 4 arms plus crotch subarm to wield a bunch of weapons along with Dendroibum's arsenal
>>22983229That, or also just grab whatever their own supply lines can provide and make some use of it instead of depending on specific parts.Based on what I checked Stamen-Dendrobium connection is via the side skirt binders, they lock in place letting the upper half still have some freedom of movement. A TR-6 unit could figure out a way to slot in there just fine, no doubt. Or replicate similar performance with their standardized parts. Hell, that's exactly what Queenly is.
>>22983242where did you find these diagrams? filename implies some sort of artbook?
>>22983245This one in particular is the 0083 Settei collection. It doesn't actually explain the mechanism but it os pretty illustrative and as accurate as it gets since it's reference material for the OVA itself.The info is from Gundam Bible which has a short description of the docking mechanism in GP03's volume.For both of these the easiest way to find that stuff is e-hentai, the Non-H section has a shit ton of various mooks, books and all other kinds of materials like this.
>>22983420All MS have some level of aimbot, but I guess BUNNyS is so jacked up that it aimbots 4 targets in a row per trigger pull
>>22981871Finally, we have a proper translation of the moment this refers to.>In that instant, the Woundwort EX's frame reacted. It downed three Nemos in the blink of an eye. Once he locked on and pulled the trigger, it automatically tracked and destroyed enemies.>Moreover, the potent shield cannon of the Woundwort EX pierced the bridge of the Salamis Kai. A devastating blow to the battleship. The three remaining Nemos promptly retreated.>Eliard was stunned by that destructive power. He'd experienced it in simulations, but this was his first taste of it in live combat. Deploying something like this at this stage was out of the question. Eliard was freshly convinced of that.This is BUNNyS. This is OVER THE MIND.
>>22983426This isn't just aim assist, this is outright executing the entire maneuver against multiple targets at the pull of the trigger, using multiple weapons with optimal targeting and needing nothing but to lock onto them.
>>22983439Judging by the art and the paragraph, it sounds like the pilot just held down the trigger and the MS automatically moved the cannon and shot at all the locked on targets. Impressive and better than anything else at the time, but I wouldn't call it "maneuver with multiple weapons"

I'm sorry for using that word as a well known media hobbyist shorthand for "part of the (relevant) continuity".Unless you wanted to say that derivative works don't have any bearing on the original ones, including ones "officially" billed as sequels, in which case I actually agree, but it's a statement that doesn't belong in a hobbyist talk, other than as a reminder to keep the relation to media healthy.

>Hazel with flight equipment: Icarus>TR-standard Minovsky flight unit: DaedalusBit of a theme here. It's a wee stretch but just saying, "Odysseus" and "Penelope" are a similar pattern.
>>22985401this is absolutely the board for that, especially now that we're riding a sinking thread to the bottom>>22985411Are all Purus created equal? Obviously Alicia is special, and I'm guessing her second in command (forgot her name) is also stronger. Or is it just a rank thing? Also, are all the Barzams purus? Or are they regular Rezeon soldiers? How many Purus are there anyways?
>>22985416I am in this thread literally every day so probably, yeah. In other places, who's to say?>>22985422Still a lil bit risky I think, at least till it's around page 7 or something.>>samenumberAlicia herself is probably the strongest among them, there's a reason she was at the forefront of the founding war with Omega. Gloria (the right hand) certainly gives a good showing too, but the other ones seem to be varied. Hard to say if it's down to individual predisposition and talent or other things, I guess it comes back to nature vs nurture in the end. We do know they're not all exact copies though, Diana (the boy in your pic) is particularly well suited to piloting Inle for example.
>>22985430I only come once in a blue mooni'm lazy and forgetful
>>22985437That's fair, coming too often can be painful after all. And now I'm leaving for the night.
>>22985440have a good one anon!!!!!!
>>22985317Biggest news? The fuck are you on. I'll take Gaia Gear over this slop, thanks.
>>22984535That's fair, though it's also fair to add many suits had little less than that yet earned decades of popularity. What info we do have on Rabscuttle is already very interesting, that thing has a Mobile Fortress mode too.
>>22984535>>22986149wink wink nudge nudge
She belongs here.
>>22954605Okay, if this is such an interesting story about an adequate Zeon on Mars, with such amazing mecha designs in huge quantities, then should we expect a normal manga and anime based on this project?
>>22986199it does have a manga thoughand anime adaptations with Gundam don't work the way people think, Bandai has been all about mixed media for solid 20 years now. It's just that this approach is fucking horrendous for anyone outside of Japan so people don't even realize it.
>>22986157What the fuck is that gun
>>22986504big ol' beam launcher with an I-field which is big by definition>>22986510>>22986510>>22986510new thread, didn't realize image limit was so close yesterday
>>22986237The artist even said on Twitter that this isn't an official comic. He's just doodling a story that's in his head
>>22986594no?>Unlike the original manga, this work is billed as an official spin-off of Gundam, so I would like to emphasize even more that we must always respect the great original work. https://x.com/omechaunit_go/status/1556458401278074880I get that you're a troll and kinda stupid, but you're just pitiful.
>>22986596Nice google translate. Try leaning my language you fuckwit. "Unlike the original manga, which is labeled as an official sidestory, I feel all the more compelled to constantly keep my reverence for the esteemed original work firmly in mind."
>>22986667So in other words, AoZ Reboot is not a "gaiden", but a main work so to speak?Good to know.
>>22986794No, despite it not being official, he's not stomping all over it. That's all he's saying. It's just him dicking around.
>>22987112Are you implying that it's some kind of Senitiel like deal, where Bamco doesn't own story and characters?Because otherwise it's not up to him whether it is official or not and is something that can be overturned overnight on a whim.If Bandai wants, it can easily say that Gigantis Counterattack got precedence over CCA despite it literally being a parody work.
>>22987236You have no fucking understanding when it comes to creating manga. You can have a publication that isn't official. As long as sunrise gets a royalty from it, they don't give two fucking shots about it unless they're involved. It's not official. He wanted to continue his design work. Dengeki got that part and he got to toss out a Loli nonsense story.Sunrise can overturn whatever the fuck they want. You saw how fast they erased the marriage comment in an interview (literally replaced the digital version in HOURS). so don't try coming at me with shit you're fucking uneducated about. You don't work with the artists and know the hellacious processes.
>>22987529Does that mean that Bandai re-licensed his AoZ Reboot fanfic to be able mention ReZeon on their HGUC Gunpla boxes?
>>22987543Proof
>>22987543Gunpla boxes also call Lord Astray "Load Astray" and call the Oiseau the Wazoo, so I hardly say they're reliable anymore.
>>22987787>image limithttps://files.catbox.moe/kgcb4j.jpgIf you don't trust a rando's photo look it up somewhere else.>>22987789Yes, but it is still a crime to steal intellectual property even if it is deriviative of your own.If Bandai doesn't own AoZ ReBoot story, it can't use it, unless it licenses it back. If it does, it's official Gundam media, simple as.
>>22987852Oh yes because they're going to miss a cash grab for Gunpla that's LE. Get bend you dumb fuck. If it were so preciously official, other media would've referenced it by now. But no, it's ignored just like Crossbone. They're not official. Get fucking over it
>>22988083>Oh yes because they're going to miss a cash grab for GunplaThat's not what I said. They could've just scrubbed the mention of ReZeon, assuming only the design line and not the story is authorized by them. Furthermore, they could release it under another HG line, like they did with Thunderbolt and Origin. They didn't do either of those things.>If it were so preciously official, other media would've referenced it by now.It's already referenced in F90 Cluster, which is the first piece of media to take place on Mars since Reboot. And Fastest Formula before that took F89 from Crossbone Dust and made references to Jupiter Empire, though obviously it doesn't confirm anything as it's a prequel.But even if it wasn't referenced, it's not a good gauge to say whether it is official or not. Do you know how long it took for Double Fake and SD G Gen UC related stuff to get referenced anywhere?
>>22988402Double Fake has been references for decades. Also, Cluster didn't reference Reboot. Too early in the timeframe for it.
>>22990962Christ you're retarded
>>22990962Reboot is set 30 years before Cluster. You can see Titans and ReZeon mecha in there.
