You know, Caterpillar has an admirably unified aesthetic. I guess. Maybe I'm just being polite? I do not in fact admire it. I am frustrated by it because it makes our job less interesting. I know you're not gonna have, like a heat lance, or vul
Sometimes, to build a better future, you have to tear some things down. Also to build a worse future! Turns out, tearing things down is not an absolute moral good. Nor is building! But I didn't come here to lecture you on random ethics. I came
This will not be a ghost podcast. There, Dylan, are you happy? I referenced it. You ever had a one-sided rivalry? Well, that's the Zaku and the Zudah, ain't it? For the Zudah, the Zaku was the machine to beat. For the Zaku... well, "Zudah who,"
I have been to San Francisco just the once. I toured the city on foot, on bicycle, by cab, and yes, by streetcar. With such hills, it's not hard to imagine how these more uncommon form of public transportation became a dominant one in the 415.
We're closing out the last of the major GAT-X suits this week as we return to normal coverage, and the loving(?) arms of the Cosmic Era. What's so strange about the Aegis is how much of it is abandoned going forward in SEED. True, the Freedom h
A promise unforgotten. It was a bit of work, and it's a bit clunky, but we are here to talk about warframes as promised. The designs themselves are of course very cool, but they also prompt a difficult question: if mecha don't have to be big, a
Make Good May, Week 3! This time, it's a different sort of Make Good, as we pick two requests that have been languishing unrolled on our list for some time. We start off with a First Gundam Friend that wasn't- the Agg, who never made it into th
They say "don't start with a showstopper," yet in the world of transforming mecha, the designers of Super Dimension Fortress Macross did exactly that. The Valkyrie set off a trend of mecha that can transform into planes, but nearly all the desi
With this episode, we're beginning the Month of Make Goods! It's time to clear all the red in the Mechanista ledger. And we're gonna start with a toku friend we rolled many months ago. He's been very politely Standing By, and now our responsibi
How do mobile workers, including our Construction Mobile Suit here, play into "mobile suits have never brought happiness to anyone" as a statement? Well, to examine this, we must first consider that the word "work" is right there in "mobile wor
Like that Michael Mann podcast? Hey, welcome to a Joke I Made For No One. This is our second ever Gaia Gear episode, and perhaps our last one, unless something happens to surprise us. In the far future of UC Gundam, very little has changed. I g
FINALLY. It's time for my one of my favorites to take center stage. I actually mean both the pilot AND the machine! The Astraea Type F is sick! Fon Spaak is unwell! Together, they're just so much fun. Let's talk some really cool 00 side designs
It's Wear O'Clock! We're diving back into the AGE-1 to talk about a whole bunch of PSP-exclusive suits for this... suit. We also have some unimportant Build variations, and then it's time to return to an unfinished task. Bush's Best await. Also
Might this be the most intricate mobile suit family tree outside of UC Gundam? I honestly think it might. Gundam AGE is a big blind spot for me, and also just a strangely big thing in general. It's not well liked. At all. But Level 5 and Sunris
This should have posted two weeks ago! It slipped through the cracks somehow! My sincerest apologies. Accusations that I "did this on purpose" because I "hate Seed" are absurd, because obviously it wouldn't have occurred to me to self-sabotage
What a great time it is for Boeing, as they spectacularly fail FAA investigations, a whistleblower calling out their scummery dies under Totally Believable Circumstances, and the door on one of their planes flies off on takeoff. Not... like the
The dice are here for Allelujah Haptism in 2023! Only a handful of episodes after the Kyrios, the Arios's time has come! Ok, so it's obviously a less cool design. But! There are some things here, especially once we get into variants and the lik
"Heroes on both sides" in spades this episode as our heroes are split basically evenly between noble and sinister. Don't "um actually" me with Diaochan, she's a hero in the book but in SD Gundam Sangoku Soketsuden she's a villain. But dang, tha
Even the original designs from crossover series have their own successors and design lineage! The Gespenst hasn't gotten any new variants in a while, but that's ok: the torch has been carried on by designs like the Alteisen, the Weissritter, th
Personal Troopers! We've already done the Huckebein, but that friend isn't the OG. The Gespenst here, piloted by our friend Gilliam Jaeger, is how it started. And how it's going? Well, that's next episode.You can find a video version of thi
I really hate that you pronounce the acronym A.G.W.S as "eggs." It's repugnant. The machines themselves are designs that range from cool to excellent by designers like Junya Ishigaki and Kouichi Mugitani, so why must you give them such a bad na
Is the Angel Halo the most wild weapon in all of Gundam? I certainly think in all of Tomino Gundam, where the competition is MOSTLY guns of various size. Well, and stuff like the Adzam Leader and such. Tomino does love to electrocute and microw
They got bought! The Mini was a popular enough design that BMW took an interest, and ever since 2001, the German manufacturer has been in charge of the iconic British car. Have they done right by the design? Well, no. Have they done worse than
The Calamity War of IBO lore must have been kinda dumb, right? Like, ok. I have to give this another sentence so the preview doesn't spoil the show. But there were railgun archer lines, samurai, wild (???) mobile armors attacking any and everyo
It feels wrong not calling it a Mini Cooper. Just "Mini?" It feels off. And too bad, because it's correct: John Cooper stole the thunder of Sir Alec Issigonis, noble designer of the British Motor Corporation Mini, and we're not going give him c
