ITT People that know way more about mobile suits than me.

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 2 points 5 hours ago

One of the ones with funnels to really get the space autism powers going

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Rick Dias is my favorite mass production UC suit!

A Valkyrie (Macross) based on something cool like the J-20 would be dope.

Its up there for me. I like the grunt units

[–] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 5 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

I dunno, i'm probably gonna be the poor fucker who has to repair them. Panel matching on a mecha has to be a huge pain in the ass.

I think in 08th MS Team they just mounted random Zaku chunks onto the broken bits of the gundam

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 2 points 5 hours ago

Yep, the chest armor of the EZ-8 was from welded scrap Zaku II bits. I think Karen had a Ground type Gundam with a GM head, too.

They did a Zaku head Gundam in ZZ.

Requiem for Vengeance was mid, but there a cool scraped together Zaku II in it.

KX139 Ta'unar Supremacy Armour equipped with a Pulse Ordinance Multi-Driver and twin Tri-Axis Ion cannons.

Wing Zero. So that way whenever I show up people can be like, "It's Wing Zero!🙋" And then when I'm not around they can be like, "Where's Wing Zero?🤷"

Also, I will blast Rhythm Emotion 24/7. 🎶

birthday. oiled up like the ancient greeks.

[–] Horse@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 15 hours ago

a Marauder MAD-3R

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 4 points 13 hours ago

I think I'd go with a Jade Phoenix config B

Normally I'd go for an atlas for the heavyweight slugging fest but nothing beats dropping dipshits before they even know what ventilated them.

Also I'd choose to be partners with an uncorrupted Castigator-class Titan from warhammer but honestly warhammer mechas are cheating because of how fucking absurd they are

All suited up, Boss! Gots me Gondom ready for krumpin' kkkrakkkers!

[–] CarbonConscious@hexbear.net 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Is this the Cortex Command version?

...If not, can it be?

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 1 points 13 minutes ago

It's from a pixel artist who did a whole series of these (mostly for Tau, Orks, and Imperial Guard).

This is a very tough question. I'm between these three, obviously it has to be Red. Probably go with Astraea Type-F2 in the end

MSN-06S Sinanju

GNY-001F2 Gundam Astraea Type-F2

MBF-P02Kai Gundam Astray Red Frame

A regular zaku, but painted in a unique color scheme in order to give myself some plot armor. Thinkin' all-white with red yellow and blue highlights, call it the "Faker Gundam"

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 2 points 5 hours ago

Like the civilian Hizack in CCA lol

[–] ThomasMuentzner@hexbear.net 5 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I would like to have a 70 meter Tall Steel collossus that can only open Wine bottles . thats his function.

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)
[–] ThomasMuentzner@hexbear.net 2 points 2 hours ago

in the big battle there are always little cuts towards him , wondering about the right kind of wine to open when the others have won.

[–] 9to5@hexbear.net 12 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

I want a red king crab I call red lobster.

I would put one of these bobblehead dogs in my cockpit and an air freshener that smells like pine

Plus a baby on board sticker (im the baby) but a cool baby thats why the sticker is cool just like me.

I think im happy with this build.

Hmm, I wonder which one I should choo- oh hey, big zam.

[–] Hatandwatch@hexbear.net 4 points 15 hours ago

Turn A Gundam for vital cow transport.

(Honorable mentions(and some non-MSG) , Heavy Arms, Psycho Zaku, or Dark Horn for over the top artillery barrage, or a Blade Liger)

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 12 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

And then I say 'what's Scopedog?' And you say 'nothing, what's scope with you dawg'

[–] GnastyGnuts@hexbear.net 5 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

Reminding me I need to watch Armor-Hunter Mellowlink

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 2 points 5 hours ago

It's so fucking cool, so yes!

[–] semioticbreakdown@hexbear.net 4 points 18 hours ago

same. I need to rewatch VOTOMS too

[–] Dyno@hexbear.net 2 points 14 hours ago

Jehuty (ZOE) when I'm feeling like a big codpiece

Tsugumori (KOS) when it's time to fight alien zombie parasites

RAY (MGS) when I fancy a swim

[–] tim_curry@hexbear.net 6 points 19 hours ago

Unicron... Wait. Wrong mecha anime.

[–] semioticbreakdown@hexbear.net 3 points 17 hours ago

white glint (but probably a GM model if i really had to stick to mobile suits)
