Says reality. Even if it's drifted away from it, Gundam was, and to a loose extent still is, a Real Robot series. As in it tries it's best to be technologically feasible. And on actual, real-life robots meant to function out in the real world, the joints are almost always protected with something to keep them from getting damaged. And a mech suit designed to fight other mech suits that are most likely shooting and stabbing at it would very likely have armor plates covering the major joints where possible. Skirt armor, shoulder pads, kneecaps, ankle guards, etc. The fronts of the elbows aren't protected because that would be almost impossible to do without hindering the joint itself.
Intent or not, that's not a feasible real-world explanation for it. Does the mere inclusion of an inner frame equal Real Grade? Last edited by SPLIT LIP; 02-11-2015 at 11:35 PM.. |

I don't really have much to say but that this design made me laugh for some reason or another.
Also since we're talking about Turn A, all I can really say about it that while a solid design, it just makes me want nonexistent gunpla. Mostly because when I first saw it I thought it had these things on its shoulder pads which were just a bunch of tubes going all the way down its hands, and I just imagine them being able to fold in front of it to act as a shield, or just be used as a shield in general. Also since split pointed out the Samurai look of it, I know what a gundam with a liftable visor, that looks pseudo knightish, but not really knightish, also a gundam covered in vents because vents. Also Turn x is actually really really cool looking, and I want it now. |

I just have a super-quick question about RG's actually. Actually just about RG Wing Zero.
Every pic I've seen makes the forehead crest look off-center. Like, every single pic. Why? Is it really off-center? |

It's the main aspect of a RG kit so I would say yes. There hasn't been a single HG kit that has inner frames like RG kits do.

Bandai is false advertising this show was made to sell kits and now it's confirmed Build Burning is a RG kit in the show. I demand my RG Build Burning now Bandai. :P
