Thanks man, I'll have to do that sometime. Part of me wishes that it was dubbed simply because I don't really watch subs these days unless I have to, but I'll do it anyway and see if it's any better. And I'll probably do what I've been doing for years and continue to avoid Destiny simply because I've heard nothing but awful things about it. Been watching it. It's alright so far. Main character is a little bit of a douchebag but you see him get REALLY screwed over by life early on, so you can at least sympathize. Then again, I am not at the part of the series people often say drops off.

They really should've cleaned up Kira and Lacus in the first part of that episode, but that is part of the style.
Anyway, a while back, I mentioned I ordered SD G Gundam Generations World, and I admit I'm not the best strategy gamer. But, it does follow in a similar style to one of my favorite games, Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Duelist of the Roses, in terms of simplicity.
In this case, it's just "select your pilot, select your unit, go to a scenario, and choose which attacks work best". The most recent game on the Nintendo 3DS, that I want to play, is starting to go from just the standard issue of presenting an actual scenario and throwing in random characters and more of an actual mission format, and eventually, I hope they decide to go for a "one world, dozens of factions" format. It'd make it like Super Robot Wars, but I'd prefer playing around with that.
I made sure to record this when I first got the chance (I have a messy storage box, but I do have the rest of my bedroom all tidy). It took me many hours, but I finally got me a version of the Reborns Gundam for my team. I'm reserving it for Season 2 Nena, and once I unlock her, I'm cramming Season 1 Nena into the Throne Drei where she belongs.

Bought a Shinn Asuka figure and got it a few days ago. One of those weird "Voice I-Doll" figurines.

So... since Gundam AGE pretty much sucked from some point up to the end, now we have an OVA series to re-tell the story from the middle? Is that right?

I never really checked out AGE, but I did like a lot of the designs from it, so I will probably wind up getting a decent number of the kits.

Personally, it's rather absurd in the fact that they wanted to do a more "mature" telling of AGE's story, when AGE itself had to become "mature" in order for people to not violently rage against it in the first place. Not a big fan of the series. I'm not gonna lie; I wish that Sunrise had stuck to their guns and made a Gundam series for younger audiences, if only to get that done and over with.

I'm wondering if they actually made a kit for Vagan Gear SID. Also... I really want to know why it's so dang hard to find After War Gundam X products? Gundam DX is really cool.

Finally got my first Gundam manga in the longest time... Gundam 00, Volume 3. To be honest, I didn't know that 00 had a manga, or that it was actually translated and sold over here. I do like the simple cover, but to be honest, they could've had a little more flair to it. Interesting take on the end of the first season, with a lot of details omitted (naturally) or modified, but I kinda find the stripped-down version to be more pleasant to read. Sucks that Bandai Entertainment closed up its book department, but at least Gundam: The Origin made it here, and I plan on checking that out. Heard great reviews. And... why else did I want to finally get the book so badly? I came for the Trinity, stayed for the cool action and ominous panels. And, since I enjoyed this, I may finally plan on reviving my manga collection that I lost in a fire nearly three years ago (yeah... this is the first time I mentioned this on the board). Thought I'd explain this a bit more in the Anime/Manga thread. In Full Boost news, this is a shock. I thought there'd be no updates this month. Gerbera Tetra, which lost a poll contest last month, as a CPU enemy. img692.imageshack.us/img692/3229/85hm.jpg

YouTube got that Full Armor ZZ boss rush video deleted, but I found a suitable replacement. You'd think that, because I'm a cruel person, the first battle was my favorite, but it wasn't. I really enjoyed the Psyco Gundam battle most, especially with Gackt's Metamorphoze song. From a game that's never coming here to one that is, Famitsu announced "Shin Gundam Musou" for the PS3 and Vita, which'll be released on December 13, 2013 in Japan. More likely, we'll be getting this as "Dynasty Warriors Gundam 4". So far, SEED and Unicorn will have their own stories in the game, and there will be more than 100 playable units. I got a feeling that 00 will also be getting bonus material that wasn't in DWG 3 (Nena as Civilian, hopefully)... and also that AGE will most likely not be in this game at all, or have to wait until DLC. Here's a screenshot from the book: s411.photobucket.com/user/koeiwarriors/media/gw4-13.jpg.html

Oh, guys... there's a new Gundam series that takes the Gunpla hobby and turns it into a phenomena. It's a lot like Digimon Tamers, and it appears that it may be the "kiddie Gundam" franchise I finally wanted to see.

It's awful lonely being the only Gundam poster to this thread in a while.
But, here's Episode One of Gundam Build Fighters.

That's what you get when there damn near nothing on the mecha animation world right now (at least nothing worth mentioning aside from IS2, which isn't everyone's cup of tea).

Majestic Prince ended its run recently, and to me, that was a forgettable mecha series. Valvrave the Liberator is going to start its second season later this month, although that seems to be more of a series about a small group of people wanting independence who just happen to have mecha to use.

First off, Extreme VS Full Boost will be released on January 30, 2014 for the PS3. In March 2014, Extreme VS Maxi Boost (yeah, I know...) will be released in the arcades with new units like Char's Zaku and AGE-2. Also, there will be a souped-up Arcade Mode, along with the Navis communicating with the pilots during fights, and also cutaways into the pilot's cockpit when they say their iconic quotes.
And, Episode 3 of Build Fighters.

I will catch up on it later, thank you for posting them! No problem. I've been loving the series and making damn sure to watch every episode. Here's some Maxi Boost scans. God, if it wasn't for the constant reminder of tampons, I'd think that'd be a good name. i.imgur.com/IVXcy3J.jpgi.imgur.com/E40E063.jpgHere's some more tidbits: *Puru 2's Purple Quebley will be playable. I know it's a tribute to her CV, who died last year, but I don't think a good moveset will be part of this machine. *Avalanche Exia (from one of the 00 side documents) will be an alternate mode for Exia, not an original unit... which makes it the Gundam Vs. equivelant of Mega Evolution. I'm guessing that they MIGHT plan on having alternate or hypothetical machines be transformed, in which case, there's somebody who might benefit from a temporary upgrade. *Dreadnought and Hyperion Gundam will be added, meaning SEED X-Astray will also be added to the mix of franchises. *There will be pilot intro sequences, and potentially cockpit shots. *Game will still run on Namco System 357.

I will say it looks better than the first Gundam building anime did. Helps the lead Gundam looks wayyyy better than the other one did.
