HGUC GM
Dirt cheap, still okay for what it is. If you want to take it up a notch go for anything else in the GM family.

Post more Bright.

- Battle System -
The battle system is kinda like chess. You have an energy bar, and can launch three robots per turn. To launch a robot, you use energy (giving this energy to the robot). The robots themselves only have 1 or 2 attacks, and the main ones have a special attack. Once you use an attack, the robot's energy is depleted, and you must put it back into the ship. If the ship still has energy available, you can relaunch the robot in the same turn.

The main strategic factor comes from using two resources: robots and items. When a robot is destroyed, you don't lose it for that battle; it gets put into a "revival queue". The same for items. Every turn, one thing is returned at random: a robot or an item. So the strategy comes from not overusing items, or mixing too many items with robots (because they're returned randomly). It's an interesting system, but it becomes kinda boring with time.
Everything is refilled once the battle ends, so items are actually infinite, and robots have no repair costs.

To tell you the truth, there's actually no incentive to do battle at all, because the only things you gain are items to be sold for money. However, the only things you can spend money on are items and robots, both of which are infinite (they replenish after battle). Once you buy every robot and 3 or 4 of the most useful items, you can keep them for the rest of the game.

- Islands -
Every Island has a theme, and usually represents only 1 series. They are:
1) Cloudia: where the main characters are based on, and where the G-Breaker games happen.
2) Terra: based on MS Gundam.
3) Austragius: based on VOTOMS.
4) Fifith Land: based on Gundam Wing.
5) Crescent: based on Panzer Galient.
6) Austral: not linked to any series, although you'll see Gorg (without pilot) in here. It's mainly linked with the heroine (Lun Forest).
7) Brave: actually Japan, the final island. You meet the GGG here, and it's also where the Aura Road portal is at. You can't visit this until Chapter 7.

- Originals -
I've read about the "licensed originals" here in an old post, but didn't know what they were at the time.
The game originals are:
- Impulse 7: a flying trooper, you start with it.
- Gunblaze A/B: a mobile trooper, you use them on G-Breaker too.
- Cloud Saver: an upgrade for Impulse 7, although you can still use both.

The "licensed originals" are (not all of them):
- Guardial: based on Gundam, for Amuro only;
- Winted: based on Wing Zero, for Heero only;
- Gaulstorm: based on Dunbine, for Show only;
- Desguld: based on VOTOMS, for Chirico only;
- Air Cavalier: based on Galient, for Jojo only;

Guardial is mainly red, Winted is orange and white, Desguld is totally white, Air Cavalier is black and Gaulstorm is green.

I heard there are others, but they only show up in the special story, which I haven't finished yet.


- Special characters -
This is pretty confusing for a first time player too, but you don't actually get most of the characters in the main story. Not even half of them. Once you finish the 8 chapters of the main story, you get an option to start from where you left off, but in a new story. This is where you get most of the characters. The confusion is because the main story has a villain and all the plot, while the special story is just you running from island to island collecting characters and robots. Kyou even says at the start that Aura Battles started reappearing, so you have to patrol the islands. No villain or anything.
The series that take part in the main story are just those in the names of the islands, the rest are in the special story.
I haven't found the Cowboy Bebop or Big O people yet, but I'll try to post their CG when I meet them.

- Music -
There are no licensed songs at all, this may be a huge turn-off for some. Even in Gaogaigar's Final Fusion CG, no music plays.

One thing of note about the robots is that, while you have a battleship captain, he/she doesn't need to be present in the ship at all times, so you can actually have Bright pilot a Zaku, and still be the captain.

About cross-series piloting, sadly there is almost none. The robots are classified into a lot of subsets, and they can only be piloted by pilots from the same subset. The only compatible subset is Mobile Suit (MS). They can be piloted by either Gundam or Gundam Wing people. There's others like RV (Round Vernian), AB (Aura Battler), FT (Flying Trooper), but they can only be piloted by people from their own series.

Fuck you ZZ was great.

He's talking about Build Fighters Try you fuck. Tryon 3 was the only good thing about it.

(okay, Destiny the Boxer was cool too.)

The Gundam Cycle (tm) in effect. It also helps that it was competently made, and sandwiched between two of the worst shows the franchise has ever produced.

>>14707119
Check out Garzey's Wing. It's a classic. For all the wrong reasons, mind you, it's terrible. But it's so terrible that it has to be seen to be believed. Make sure to get the dub, too, not the subs. That takes the terribleness to a hilarious level.

>>14707124
The dub is the only way to make sense of Garzey's Wing's convoluted situation.

You would probably like 0083 and 8th MS Team at least.

>>14706348
G-savior is a must watch man.

I didn't really like ZZ untill episode 30~ or so but I thought Victory was great (minus the shitty opening just start on episode 2, go to 3, then back to one to save yourself having to deal with the fucked start) and Turn A was my favorite. F91 is worth watching for the fantastic first 30 minutes, and War in the Burger is the best gudam OVA.

in all the figures, they are stored on side skirts

>>14706311

I imagine the handle telescopes or folds in some manner for storage so that it can be stowed horizontally on the outward side of the rear skirt armor.

I never figured out if I was supposed to find Shed 17 unsettling or hilarious.
