>looks like gundam but doesn't called it gundam What's the point?
>>23806050looks like gundam and doesn't afraid of anything
>>23806050I can paint a painting that looks like the Mona Lisa, but it doesnt make it the Mona Lisa.
>>23806050Define "Gundam"
>>23806050It has to be strong like a Gundam
>>23806064Something with gundam in it's name, duh.
>>23806093Explain why things are called "Gundam"
>>23806095Because the people who designed them named them that. Mostly for marketing purposes. Anaheim loves their money after all, and the gundam brand sells. Naming everything gundam would devalue that brand though, so you gotta keep it scarce.
>>23806095Because they're derivative in one way or another of the original Gundam.
>>23806102>>23806106See? We're already getting different answers, and neither is more "right" or "false" than the other. Learn from this.
>looks like a gundam, is called a gundam but isn't a gundam
If Gundam isn't in the unit's name on the gunpla box, it's not a Gundam.
>>23806106All MS after the OYW are derivatives of the RX-78 project. Official sources say that the Alex is basically the godfather of nearly all MS after it. And RX-78-1 > RX-78-2 > RX-78-3 > Alex. And the Alex pioneered movable frame, e-pacs, linear cockpits and 360 panoramic screens, and more. Not to mention the RX-78s pioneered magnetic coating which pretty much became standard. By that logic all MS made after the OYW are gundams.
>>23806050It has to say Gundam when you boot it up.
>>23806194Literally is a Gundam. The whole novel is about that.
Gundams are made with Gundamium alloy, thats what makes them gundams. If you make your car out of gundamium alloy it will be a gundam.
>>23806050Having a gundam, but not paying for one.
>>23809196Funny thing about the Huckebein is that in its original appearance you could change its colors, so you could outright have it in Gundam colors.
