Would any of /m/ like it if Gundam had a smaller shape? More akin to the Gasaraki mechs?

>Would any of /m/ like it if Gundam had a smaller shape?
Why would we call it Gundam then?
>>13458069
...would work for the Japanese of other people of smaller stature, but honestly anon...a standing target is still a standing target.
didnt tomino want the victory to be around 13m
theres a picture of him, katoki and some other people in front of a victory statue thats around 13m too

Not sure, but it would seem more akin to realism if they were about 7m to 12m tall.
>>13458203
Why not powered armor?
>>13458246
No transformation
No gattai
>>13458246
Not sexy enough
Plugsuit + mech is better.
>>13458246
GIANT ROBOT not HALO armored hockey players.
>>13458246
No dramatic limb loss.
Too small.

Sexy bitch >> plug-suit >> PA >> 10m Mech
We cool?
>>13458246
Wasn't that the original idea Tomino had back in '78?

He cites Starship Troopers as the original inspiration.
"Mobile Suit" is a another name for for Power Armor, no Giant Toy Robot.
>>13458089
Japs are not that short.
>>13458069
you can't have katoki legs that way.
>>13458329
Blame Clover.
>>13458069
Stuff in Victory are pretty small due to how advanced mobile suit technology has become by that point.
>>13458188
So that was 1/1 scale?
Not as small as 4-5m, but 10 to 14 meters would be great. That way we could have 1/72 with reasonable sizes that can pose along other vehicles.
And they would be Armored Core sized which is my go-to.
>>13458069
No fun.
>>13458069
>what if gundam wasn't like gundam?
Every time I see that all I can think is why would you even want it to be Gundam in the first place. All the brand name does is restrict your storyline possibilities and force you to have a samurai head and a masked rival.

The hell it wouldn't be!
