yet another Zeon MA...
>>15788583
>>15788583
>>red sazabi thing again
why
>>15788588
this one looks bad
>>15788592
>>15788593
>>15788592
Wow, just wow
>>15788593
This is the worst looking MA aside from the Zakrello I've seen. It's like a bootleg Dendrobium Orchis.
>>15788589
The same reason for any decision made by Gundam staff since 1979: toy sales
>>15788596
What were they even thinking before they adopted this as an anime? Basically one of the only original designs in this series (thats not a revision of an older suit)and this is what you get...
Should have just made picrelated instead of this ploughin shite
>>15788612
>hating on the Zakrello
Get a load of this faggot
>>15788596
I would love to see how that design meeting went.
"Hey we've been looking at these recently declassified files and we want a new Gundam / Mobile Armor configuation similar to the GP03 'Dendrobium.''
"Okay I get the design department on it right away."
"There's just one tiny little problem..."
"What?"
"The beancounters at Dakar are being a bitch. Your going to have to do this on a budget..."
"ARE YOU SHITTING ME!?"
>>15788638
Wait, all the Gundam Project materials were destroyed after the Delaz fleet operation...
>>15788593
>this fucking thing is the final form of the Alex
Bernie noooooooooooo
>>15788593
if this is actually a pile of random shit, like a Zeta backpack and some other things glued together as an excuse to throw a bunch of old runners in a box and call it a new thing then I will gladly salute this new hypermeta gundam
>>15788592
>>15788593
>>15788596
What the hell am I looking at?
>>15788669
I would imagine there were more than a few highly classified files hidden away. The Federation would never release them to the public or the rank and file of course.
IT'S A FUCKING DRAGON!
Hahahahahaha
>>15788734
This is some Advance of Zeta shit
>>15788734
DRAGON NO PAWAA OMOISHIRE
>>15788612
Hey it happened once.
>>15788734
>it's another Zeon is strapped for cash but makes a ridiculously ornate design episode
>>15788838
Remember that guy Char asked about Zeong's legs and he said they weren't necessary? He was the only R&D guy to survive Zeon-side and went on to educate all future Zeon and Zeon-sympathetic engineers.
>>15788593
Nah, son.
Nah.
MA can be fun
>>15788871
what am I looking at
>>15788592
>>15788593
>>15788596
Kek.
This is the best joke of the year.
>>15788834
This actually looks cool though
>>15788871
What the shit is that, it looks like a xenogears secret boss
>>15788919
>>15788956
It's an Eva reference.
>>15788612
that's kind of the point of this enemy faction
they're a rogue private organization that operates salvaged federation suits and shit. The Gundam is a literal kitbash of different suit parts mated to the salvaged Alex Gundam frame
"I wish for more UC!"
>>15788734
A dragon Sazabi and a Re-Gz coloured orange thing from Code Geass.
UC being superfluous with new designs.
That is the main flaw of UC, they just keep introducing new designs. I think it is already good if they managed to newly animated existing designs that have been neglected.
Look at 0081 avant title. No need for new designs. The game itself repurposed the 7th Gundam and RX-81, and introduced the Efreet Nacht.

The milking is becoming too much.
Worst UC show?
Worst UC show.
>>15788589
It's not even an original design. pic related is also a Newtype super MA that appeared in a graphic novel from 10 years ago.

>That is the main flaw of UC, they just keep introducing new designs.
The problem is that those designs are either completely derivative of something else, or over-the-top-stupid-bullshit, and not in a fun way or a way that fits.
Zeon MA looks alright...until you get a full look at it. It's a dragon Sazabi/Nightingale thing. DO YOU GUYS REMEMBER CHAR. DO YOU GUYS REMEMBER HOW HE LIKES RED. DO YOU GUYS REMEMBER THE NIGHTNGALE? BUT THIS ONE IS COOLER, SINCE IT LOOKS LIKE A DRAGON.
This thing looks like it would fit better in Gundam AGE. And I say this because they weren't bullshitting around with what they were trying to go for with the Vegan MS/MAs, and it wouldn't be painted in a way to try to pander to Zeonfans.
The Gundam MA looks like it was designed by a committee of assholes. "It's gotta be sleek, not too big and bulky, and the Gundam's head gotta be showing, so everyone knows it's an add on for the Gundam!" This thing is a fucking disaster. I mean, the Sazabi-Dragon is bad because it's a bit too up the nose with what they're trying to pull, but this MA Gundam looks like a pile of shit.
>>15789765
i thought it was a neue ziel II variant
>>15789754
/m/ BTFO
>>15789786
Still looks dumb.
>>15789754
>U.C. 0097: a pilot named Johnny with his MSZ-006 Zeta
Gundam must face the EARM, a group of terrorists (apparently supported by Neo Zeon remants) and their
fearsome mobile armor Leiurus.
I'm more surprised Johnny Ridden got to pilot a Gandum.
>>15788871
I see they got Katsuhiro Otomo designing Mobile Armors. Good.
>>15789754
>>15788588
>>15788583
>>15788734
There was also that giant MA design from Ms igLOO Apocalypse 0079 that very slightly resembles the red MA in Twilight Axis.
The tail also gives me BESPA vibes, and I've not seen Twilight Axis or know any of the details behind it (waiting for all of the commercial to air before watching it), but a branch of SNRI is behind the designs of BESPA so maybe this is just another link to Late UC?
>>15789881
Zeon Remnants funding other terrorists who also have a boss tier MA.
Remnants will continue to pop up with boss tier machines for convenience's sake.
Just say that it was Anaheim pulling strings in every single war.
>>15788734
Okay, this is basically just an AU now. That Zeon MA looks like it belongs in the 00 concept art for the Gadelazza and the cone gundam looks like something from AGE, not even the federation side, something from AGE's enemies
>>15788871
It got to Voltes V and Grendizer
>>15790672
is it public knowledge the existence of MAs?
i mean propaganda alone, the EF can discredit zeon remnants/revivals with "this is where your "taxes" go instead of better living space"
I'm surprised that no Zeon MA have be constructed that look like the Bird thing of the Zeon insignia.
>>15790748
Kyshatriya was heavily based on the Quin Mantha, they probably scrapped a few to make it and added the sleeves.
The Neo Zeong looks like it's reusing parts from older MA, namely the Alpha azieru.
>>15790764
still even if they're reusing/re-purposing old stuff, would still cost a pretty penny. EF propaganda machine could be all "they accuse us for not using your tax money on you but they keep using your tax money on these money pits. even their uniforms look expensive"
>>15790748
The Kshatryia is a mobile suit, and is signifigantly smaller than the one it's based off of, and preforms pretty well though?
>>15790779
"really expensive mobile suit" then.
then some zeon nut counters with the "gundam that costs as much as three battleships!"
what is that thing made up of? rare gems?
>>15790773
Gundam really needs to start doing more worldbuilding on its financial and bureaucratic aspects.
>>15790795
Yea but the salamis is like a piece of shit that probably costs a little more than 1 GM.
>>15790748
>>15790773
>Federation propaganda is the same as the one from Starship Troopers
I really want to see this
>>15790815
i thought salamis are cruisers?
>>15790936
then they design the propaganda officer to look like neil patrick harris.
>>15790748
>>15790773
Other than the original Zeon and maybe Axis the rest of zeon groups were remnants and smaller private groups who were either privately funded, engaged in bandit activity, or "stole" their stuff.
During the OYW Zeon was basically treating their MA program the same as Nazi super weapons in that they were "The next big thing that would win the war". And in the case of Axis their stuff actually worked and was effective, they only lost due to internal conflict crippling them.
>>15788734
The Vagans are behind this
