ITT : What were they thinking?

"Gotta sell toys!"

I like to think Okawara wasn't even planning to submit it, or was going to revise it later but Tomino happened to see it passing by his desk and threw it in the show just because it made him laugh.

I'd do the exact same thing.

>>13519451
It was probably this.

>>13519428
But did it ever even sell any? Or rather Many post people just kinda laugh at it. I'd buy a kit of the thing.

>>13519455
I'd totally buy a modern Zakrello kit. No redesigning, just a plain ol' Zakrello.

>>13519468
Same here and I don't even really build Gunpla.

>>13519420
Gotta go fast

>Man, I really liked working on Gatchaman.

They were thinking of making an aquatic mobile suit, but forgot to make it hydrodynamic.

>Why not make a giant robot fish then?
Because that would make too much fucking sense. Go back to the corner and learn to think like a moron.

Once the Zakrello is mass produced, we'll conquer the Federation in no time!

>shoot from the mouth

Give it some more verniers so it can move properly and it's a fairly effective weapon.

here's a better idea: design something that only needs to do the second one

thanks, guess it's time for me to look for it again since the HDD I kept that in went dead

Seriously, why didn't they just make their aquatic mobile armor fish-shaped? And give it more than one gun? And give it arms that can reach far enough to actually attack something?

Now that is more like it. Goddamn, I LOVE the Hygogg! Finally the Zekes made an aquatic mobile suit that's actually worth a damn.

I would so fucking buy a kit of this, and I already have the big MSIA one. I think the main reason they haven't been made, though, is because they're huge, it has about three times the mass of the Gelgoog figure it came with. That, and how it's a very niche design, it only appeared in a single episode, and just encapsulates the weird 'we need to come up with something to sell toys because we have to keep production afloat' mindset.

There is an old, old kit that has two whole Zakrellos of different sizes, but what I really want is a modern kit.

TUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUBES

Zakrello is awesome my man! That is what they were thinking.
