anyone else here prefer the design of the mk ii over the zeta?
hyaku shiki is god tier tho
>>15004791
Nu Gundam is best design
>>15004791
I'll prefer the sleekness of Zeta
But the Zeta plus was always superior.
>>15004795
It'scool
>>15004791
Just finished Zeta and frankly, I thought the mkii looked a bit boring, there's nothing really to it. Though for some weird reason I think the mkii+g-defenser looked good.
Zeta likewise didn't really worked on me, didn't liked the face at all (though it was nice that they tried something else), the transforming gimmick was ok but seeing it now made it lose the effect I guess.
And yeah, Hyaku Shiki blow them out of the water even if it isn't a super original design and it has nothing really out of the ordinary but the bling paint.
I really wasn't into much of the suit's show unfortunately, HS, Qubeley and The O, Psycho Gundam were really cool but I can't really feel much about many other ms, especially grunts and most of the many many enemy suits.

I haven't seen CCA yet, but there's something I don't quite get about the v Gundam's funnels.
Do they like fold when in action ? But then, how is that that half of them looks like half a funnel? It looks like there are 6 funnels, but if you count it by "halves" there are 4 funnels...
How the hell does this funnel mess compute exactly?
>>15004808
>>15004795
agreed, I really want to get the ver. ka kit. if I've never built a gunpla before how fucked am I?
>>15004823
So from left to right, are the 1 and 5 funnels somehow different?
The others are like folded over themselves but the 1 and 5 are unfolded?
The image isn't that telling...
>>15004791
I used to. But then I saw Fujita's redesign of the Zeta and it's been a favorite of mine ever since. It's just go so much extra flavor to it.
>>15004846
I'll never forget seeing a completed kit of one of those in a display case when I was a kid - it was painted so well and detailed
>>15004795

Pretty fucked.
It was my third MG and I fucked up a few parts. You need to clean nub marks or else some armor pieces won't stick well and the psycho frame tends to fall a lot.
Also lots of tiny foil stickers under the green psycho frame to help it pop.
I ordered a second one last month but the vendor on amazon send me a Hi-Nu ver.ka by mistake. I didn't want to pay for postage so I just kept it since it's a kit I wanted anyways.
Hi-Nu a cute and a significantly easier build
>>15004791
I prefer Fujita's original MK-II design over the final design, but the final design is still pretty cool. I prefer the Zeta, though.
>>15004843
Yes, the Nu's Fin Funnels can fold over themselves to shoot beams.
>>15006258
>>15004823
>>15004795
make me wonder why they didn't decide on all 5 funnels folded up. Was there an in universe explanation for that?
I'm just glad they announced a new Zeta High Grade so I can put all three next on my shelf next to my OYW(Gundam, Guncannon, Guntank) team.
>>15006361
The docked fin funnels are meant to look like an A
Because Amuro
>>15006636
Also,Yukata Izubuchi made the Nu Gundam without the funnels (you can see this in one of the first shorts of the old SD Gundam), and he was asked later to add a cape of sorts. He came up with the funnels as a one shoulder cape.

every design in zeta sucks except the shiki
The Zeta Gundam was a ground-breaking design in mecha. Truly beautiful. My favorite Gundam. Gundam design at its peak.
>>15004795
too bad CCA sucked
>>15006705
Take that back
CCA is great within the thematic context of everything leading up to it
>>15006709
>within the thematic context of everything leading up to it
Too bad all that buildup was never shown.
>>15006238
Did you happen to have a picture of the plamo build for that? I could have sworn I saved it, but I ain't seeing it anywhere on my HD.
>>15007311
Another speedy delivery like usual, thank you anon!
>>15006692
them fighting words boy
>>15004808
Nu Gundam wasn't even finish when Amuro decide to use it against Char's Neo Zeon.
The Fin Funnel was basically strap into the gundam itself
>>15006636
>>15006647
sauce? makes sense tho. thanks
>>15004823
>>15006258
>>15008094
Finally saw CCA, v Gundam was really funky and those funnels really looked like nothing else, they really succeeded in making them strange-looking even at this point of the show. Somehow I still preferred Char's Sazabi though...
>>15006636
As stupid and bling-ey as it is I can believe this.
>>15006692
>every design in zeta sucks except the shiki
didn't know someone could have such shit taste
