MS IGLOO is basically War in The Pocket except it's actually good and worth watching, lets be honest with ourselves.

The Federation didn't use MS to take Odessa apart from the Whitebase crew

Horrendous bait.

If it weren't full CG and there wasn't that freaky death god shit in Igloo 2, if would probably be one of the better rated OVAs.

Please do not lump IGLOO in with IGLOO 2. Even Bandai knows the latter was a mistake.

2 was better than 1 though

The best part of Igloo was the blue zaku that went 2fast2furious and the guntank model that was shown to be way better than humanoid mobile suits

They are nothing alike, thematically, visually or even in the way the story is told.
Why would you even make this shitty thread? I hate this fucking board so much

Both are formulaic as hell, but IGLOO 1 has a better formula.

>Weapon is to be tested by the Jotunheim with a pilot with some sort of personal stake in it, weapon does well but at the cost of its pilot, we see Zeon deteriorate to the point where they approve weapons before they've been tested and slap together mobile armors from whatever is lying around

>Federation soldier who hates their job goes up against overwhelming odds and seems to win, but then loses, while a literal phantom floats around, and it's not symbolism because characters interact with it

HOYW > Apocalypse 0079 > Dogshit > Gravity Front

That said, 0080 is better than IGLOO, and I say this as a huge IGLOOfag.

They're the same stories, anon. The difference is Alfred is an annoying git that needed to be booted out of the way.

Fuck you nigger, that shinigami stuff has been around since 0079.

>But anon that's Dolze's evilness
Then why didn't the other Zabi's like Gihren and Kycilia display such evilness right before they died
Plus Dozle was presented as a better Zabi like Garma.

the CG facial expressions were meh.

the shinigami was a horrible addition and as grunts we knew they were going to die anyway.

really love how Rebellion is taking "The Origins" approach with retelling the story. The beginning earth arc really getting fleshed out helps add more character development to the cast. Plus the new variants it adds are pure fun
>Adzam/Zaku/Apsalus hybrid MA
>Chobham Armor for Unit 1
>Aqua Gundam armor for Unit 1 to chase Gato's Jukon sub
>GM Cannon II Striker w/0081 style beam rifle and armor motif

I need some gunpla of these. If Thundebolt can get its own line, what's stopping Rebellion?!

That was the manifestation of Dozle's emotions, rage, anger, blah blah, against an enemy of Zeon, as perceived by Amuro's Newtype senses, you forgot this last part. It's not his "evilness", what the hell made you think of THAT?

To add, Dozle was directly facing the White Devil while Ghiren probably didn't even register his own death and Kycilia got double-crossed. Neither participated in frontline battle, and Dozle was the most emotionally open out of the three Zabi siblings. If anyone were so emotionally charged as to be able to manifest a projection when viewed through the Gundam equivalent of 3D glasses, Dozle easily makes the mark by a large margin. In comparison, Ghiren and Kycilia were cold lizard bastards.

>B-but fuck you Garma didn't have it!

Garma's target in his last moments was the White Base. Furthermore, Amuro's NT abilities were not even openly manifesting at that time yet.

Meanwhile the shinigami ends IG2, by narrating to the spirit of the dead Guntank pilot, about how she got her jimmies played like a fucking fiddle by her double agent former boyfriend. In comparison, Dozle's manifestation did fuck all except give Amuro an impromtu IMAX experience.

I suppose one can make a point that the pilot's Newtype tendencies awoke at a critical juncture just before her death that allowed her will to linger long enough to add WHATATWEEST to the story, but seeing as we're given no indication as to any form of Newtypism in the entirety of all IGLOO works, to say nothing of IG2, it's understandable as to why nobody would see it that way.

It didn't even do anything until the last IGLOO story anyways, it just floated around for the first two, do I assume the guys involved were NTs too? Fuck that. IG2's beginning also featured the super UFO HLVs used by Zeon. Fuck that, too.

The 3D was okay though.

>You can play them is Battle Operation. That game has a lot of obscure suits, I like it. Shame about the sortie limit.
>>
Some of those early episodes were pretty jank though.

In particular episode 2 where the stolen Zakus would raid JPEG bases.

That said, it had its moments... I still want to run an all tank army in a mech game at some point.

the adzam mobile armour was fuckin neato

really made the Africa arc more tense as opposed to a half a dozen mobile suits
>>
I think Igloo 2 is pretty good to be honest, even if it looks like a shoddy PS3 game cutscene. In my opinion, it does a really nice job at painting Zakus and Zeon as a whole to be an extremely horrifying threat if you don't have a MS.

That must be the legendary Magella Mk. XLIV produced by Shin Neo Neue True Final Zeon of the post-Victory era. Truly, a weapon to surpass mobile suits.

It's a Hildolfr, flying with a Sub Flight System, alongside a Zanzibar, above New Yark.

The White Base would have went down if Garma had this back then. Hildolfr stronk. Dodai and Hildolfr stronker.

Joke aside, the Hildolfr is the one Zeon mobile weapon I genuinely like. Highly mobile, packing firepower, limber in action.

But its a tank.

If they revealed tanks are actually far superior to giant robots too hard what would be the point of the series?

>If they revealed tanks are actually far superior to giant robots too hard what would be the point of the series?

It's quite ironic is that IGLOO EP. 2 nailed that the hardest, it's easily one of the best tank vs MS episodes in anything Gundam. It's like Zeon suddenly turned reasonable and competent. Then at the end of the episode, you're reminded that 603 is where they send unfavored and/or unwanted projects to die.

I'm not one to blindly accept "why doesn't the technology spread to tanks and planes" for any given series setting just because, but it doesn't take away from the Hildolfr being an example of what might happen when it does.

IG2 has some moments in its own tank episode, but it still didn't quite match up to the Hildolfr's own. There may have been moments like the Feddie pilots staying around in the smoke cloud instead of boosting out and over it, but there are far sillier moments in IGLOO overall than just those. To add, the episode had some of the best battle choreography in the series.
