Prove Turn A isn't an orbital frame.
You can't.

Yoji Shinkawa didn't design it.

Hah.
>>14001756
It's got one of those.
>>14001741
> can warp
Not in show, it can't. It can turn invisible, not warp. I'm not sure about that foot thing either.
>>14001741
It has feet
What if the guy whips out his cock in the cock cockpit?
>>14001741
> rifle matches armor
Disgusting
The kits come with a cow?
>>14001870
If you want a clash go watch the show where everything else the earth's militia uses is the sleek future mobile suits with their trash cannons as a gun
>>14001876
Yeah it's great you can even store the cow in it's chest.
>>14001864
It'll upset people who didn't like the ending to Gunbuster
>>14002107
Can confirm, it's the shit.
>>14001870
the rifle looks excellent and matches the design perfectly, a bland grey lump would look horribly out of place.
>>14002138
It disappoints me that the HG Turn A can't raise it's arm like that.
>>14002146
Really? I haven't built mine yet...though I guess I shouldn't care too much since I have the Moonlight Butterfly accessory so it'll just woosh around when posed anyway.
>>14002157
Yeah, the should pads can't rotate, so the arm only goes up so far. The shouldets can wiggle back and forth just a tiny bit.
The overall poseability is somewhat disappointing for a modern kit. At least the knees can bend almost as far as the MG.
>>14002166
Lame but I can understand that
>>14002166
the MG can only pull it off because of its insanely complex shoulders. its got "8" shaped double rotating mounts holding the main pauldron over the shoulder with moving plates on the back of the armor plus the beam saber racks and weapon racks getting in the way directly behind it on each side.
My Tan Eh.

So /m/, I just completed MSG, Z, ZZ, and CCA. Can I finally watch Turn A now?
>>14002883
>Can I finally watch Turn A now?
You could have watched it whenever.
>>14002883
Really, you can probably watch it if you want.
If you really want to be as correct as possible you can watch War in the Pocket, F91, Stardust Memory, Last Blitz of Zeon, Victory Gundam, 08th MS Team, and Gundam X.
That'd be all the UC related stuff that came before Turn A.
You do you man.
>>14002913
>This is the theatrical compilation of the Mobile Suit Gundam 0083 OAV series, with much of the plot and character development trimmed out.
Wouldn't it be better to watch the regular 0083 instead or is there something wrong with it?
>>14001741
>orbital frame.
I don't understand what you mean by this.
>>14002883
Yes. The references to the other series are nuanced. The most overt is the use of Zaku/Zaku II and Capule. Nothing requires you to know what happened in the precursor series.
>>14002927
Whatever, I don't know what those are, just watch 0083. I just know if I was waiting to watch Turn A, I'd watch all the main series that came before Turn A.
>>14002883
I watched everything made before it in production order + Unicorn before watching it, I didn't feel like I gained any special insight. But you shouldn't view Turn A as some goal, some final boss, to aimed toward. By itself it's a fantastic series, so focus on the show as is and don't actively look for references and expect a shit ton of them.

I love that rifle
Negro Turn A is easily the best design to come oit of Build Fighters.
>>14003483
>That guy must have cast his own clear yellow cockpit piece

That said, 10/10 taste.
>>14003489
HG Turn A comes with a clear yellow cockpit piece.
>>14003489
he was shit at fighting, should have kept it on a shelf
>>14003680
>tfw no rrobbert184 review of the HG Turn A
>>14003483
why are there so few custom paint jobs of the Turn A?
>>14003720
I love his voiceno homo
>>14002146
>>14002166
I modded my Turn A to have a more normal shoulder. You just need to remove the back panel of the shoulder that's attached to the torso and weld it to the main piece. With a little sanding it now can rotate like any other gundam arm.
>>14003763
Pics?
>>14003755
Me too Anon, me too.
>>14003763
Aw man, the shoulders are my favorite part of the design. I would still like to see a pic though.
>>14003777
Sorry I don't have pictures. The Torso joint snapped and I ended up replacing it anywyas. I never got around to modding the new one's shoulders.
It didn't really look different anyways. You just weld the two shoulder parts together and cut the so it can move like the front shoulder part. The small white triangle parts on the torso makes it look like it still attached. when you have it in a neutral position.
>>14003455
DINGO
>>14002138
Now I know that's a different scale, but Turn A is pretty tall compared to nearly all Gundam with the exception of a few (Nu is one).
>>14003924
Turn A and Nu are 1/100 MGs, the rest are an assortment of 1/144 RGs and HGs
Turn A: 20m
Nu: 22m
>>14003994
Yeah, that's what I meant. Comparing them you can see that Turn A has very lanky and long legs, and a small torso, it's interesting.
>>14001741
one things for sure if nothing else it's ugly as fuk.
>>14004015
No one asked for your opinion, Nagano.
>>14004015
Yep. Easily one of the ugliest Gundams.
>>14003733
It's so sleek and simple that making a custom concept is a bit difficult specially if you dont want to completely fuck it up
>>14004054
Indeed. A lot of kits are boxy or winged, so if you swap out for another box or another sort of backpack it's not as weird. Turn A is just so slim and rounded there aren't many good places to add things, and it's hard to find anything to swap into it that won't just be jarringly incongruous.
>>14003733
am i the only one that ever bothered to make a grey Turn A?
>>14004147
Yes
>>14003483
Are those supposed to be Psyco Gundam Mark I colors?
>>14004153
It's the same pallette, different placement though. Could just as easily say they're Trombe colors.
>>14004147
Shit looks hype. I dig.
>>14002218
Really not one of Syd Mead's stronger works.

>>14004283
God, I wish we got a PG Turn A. Even though the chances of that happening are ridiculously low unless Bandai pulls off some insane "every lead Gundam gets a PG" plan.
It'd look so amazing, though.
>All the shitty alternate version that design-shallow Japanese mecha artists tried to do with Turn A

It was for a race that he could have won if he wasn't trying to rape Sekai's sister.

Actually I think it's three: the Zaku I and II, and the Kapool is arguable.

Modern /m/, ladies and gentlemen.
>>14004147
I like the honeycomb pattern on the shield a lot. Was that a stencil or a dry-app decal?

its from this decal set.

>>14004064
There was a Turn A kit based on a custom Turn A for a Build Fighters gunpla Magazine which has a plugin for extra backpacks for easy partswapping, and details that would match more regular Gundam but it was a P Bandai exclusive so not many people own it.
I like it but not enough to buy even though I love the Turn A.
Here's one of the only customs I could find of it,, it covers up to the cool chest though.
>>14007334
I feel like in modern times the sentiment "lurk moar faggot" has been forgotten.
>>14011549
>somebody made Shin Turn A look good
Unpossible.
>>14011555
That rifle is pretty dope
Don't mind me just dumping Turn As.
There needs to be more custom Turn A mecha in general, even new colourschemes make things look so much more interesting.
>>14011584
MG Sumo when?
