>there are people out there who unironically think Turn A has good mecha design
Other than the two Turns and Sumos, pretty much everything else Syd Mead did for this show was laughable garbage.

The two turns and Sumo's is what people say when they say that usually. Honestly I've never seen people even talk about the other shit.
>>14979257
I honest to god have no idea who the hell would unironically defend some of this stuff. People shit on Zeta and ZZ for their wacky designs but Turn A tops them all.
Gundam seed destiny exists if you want copy paste Gundams and ZAKUS. The rest of us will enjoy unique designs like the FLAT and WADOM.
>>14979262
Just look at this shit.
>t. Gundamrager
>>14979267
You know your designs are garbage when you take inspiration from the Bound Doc and somehow make it even worse than the original.
>>14979266
Turn A had actual Zakus and fucking Kapools which thankfully weren't shat all over by Syd Mead.
>>14979272
Such inspirational designwork.

I love the two designs already posted in this thread. Especailly the WaD. I love it's exposed spine/tail, dual pilot setup and the fact it's really meant more as a sentry/scouting unit than frontline machine of war. The Eagail has the same exposed spine/tail, and I love it there too, along with the bumbleball head that acts as a mace and it's dinosaur running mode. The Mahiroo is great too. Really nice curves and I love the shield/arm. The FLAT and the Bandit are nice too, even if not my favorites. It has some nice updates of existing units too, like the Muttowoo being an obvious Baund Doc update - though I prefer it's styling over the original.

Those are Okawara designs
>>14979379
Those are most definitely not Okawara. You can tell by the lack of broken knees.

I really like them. They remind me of those alien looking Buff Clan mechs from Ideon a little bit. I'm really glad Tomino had the sense to make mechs from so far in the future from UC look so Alien in comparison to them, it helped make Moonrace a unique and interesting faction.

>This is a mobile suit
What were they thinking?
>>14979406
yeah I never considered that similarities between Turn A moon-race and Buff Clan.
Neat. Makes me like the designs even more.

Muttowooooooo a cute! CUTE!
>>14979267
I want a kit of dinosaur hammer
It's obvious that they were trying to be different but it still doesn't mean that most the designs in Turn A are ugly as sin.
>>14979262
Why is it no one tried jumping on top of that thing and stabbing the head till like the very end of the series?
>>14980226
I'm pretty sure Loran does it several times in the first dozen episodes where they see the most combat.
>>14980226
They were very tall.
>>14980233
Many suits can jump high or even outright fly.
>>14979288
The spines are the only redeeming parts of those two designs.
