Post by: cool breeze on June 10, 2009, 01:30:52 AM: yeah, that's pretty awesome.

And kinda random, but I always liked how the rx-78 had the core lander at it's center. Other Gundam and mobile suits are much more advanced in both UC and other Gundam series, but very few had a jet that could launch from the belly.

I know how much you love Gundams. This would be the ultimate addition to your collection*

Cause he's a nerd.

Post by: Mr. Gundam on June 10, 2009, 03:29:02 PM: Yeah, I saw that yesterday. It even made the front of the Seattle PI's website last night (they have a daily pictures from around the world column).

Too bad it will be long gone when my wife and I go back to Japan next April. :(

Post by: Mr. Gundam on June 10, 2009, 06:17:25 PM: It's only going to be up on Odaiba until August 31st. I wonder if they'll scrap it or move it to somewhere else (Fuji Q?) after that?

Post by: Mr. Gundam on June 10, 2009, 06:44:29 PM: I'd be ok with an RX-78 being our new supreme overlord.

Title: Re: Giant Gundam That Made Bebpo Happy And For Distant To See!
Post by: Mr. Gundam on June 11, 2009, 12:32:19 AM: Anywhere from $40 to $100. Depends on the size of the model. The Guntank hasn't been listed yet, so I have no idea what the MSRP is.

Post by: Joe Molotov on June 11, 2009, 12:51:43 AM: That's not a giant Gundam, that's regular size. smh

LOOK AT THAT. It's HUGE, dwarfing that high-tech fighter plane that is clearly a U.S. prototype based on its markings. JAPAN IS TAKING OVER

It's a unfinished prototype for a trade show.

Then again, the Guntank is shit, so who cares?
Title: Re: Giant Gundam That Made Bebpo Happy And For Distant To See!
Post by: Mr. Gundam on June 12, 2009, 01:58:19 AM: Heh. You should read Gundam The Origin. In it, Guntanks are ancient obsolete technology long before the onset of the One Year War.

Seriously, they're the ugliest mobile suit in the entire Universal Century.
Title: Re: Giant Gundam That Made Bebpo Happy And For Distant To See!
Post by: Bebpo on June 12, 2009, 02:10:48 AM: Guntanks are no fun to play as in games

tread, tread, tread

Post by: Mr. Gundam on June 12, 2009, 02:11:45 AM: It so does not look realistic. Well, to me at least.

Now, this is one of the few realistic looking mechanical contraptions in the whole UC:

Post by: Bebpo on June 12, 2009, 02:45:51 AM: I actually kind of wonder why tanks don't have two cannons. Going by Crysis tank fights are basically who can shoot the other guy the most first and two shots at a time would help there.

Then again I don't think Crysis is an accurate Tank simulation game. :-X
Title: Re: Giant Gundam That Made Bebpo Happy And For Distant To See!
Post by: Mr. Gundam on June 12, 2009, 12:09:33 PM: Yeah, that's more plausible than the goofy 70's Guntank design.

Post by: Tauntaun on June 12, 2009, 04:07:45 PM: Why not build one you can play with? :-*
