We did get a lot of Gundam aired here in the US after Wing aired. We got G Gundam, 8th MS Team, 0080, 0083, Mobile Suit Gundam, Gundam Seed, Gundam 00, etc. It was a good run. It would be nice if some of the kids networks reaired a few of those to get the kids into Gundam. Maybe one day other series will be brought over but I can understand why they aren't buying a lot of the new stuff. I would like to see more Macross come over first.

There is a difference between dated and classic. It's a fine line but a lot old anime with that style were done so well that they hold up today. Sure, they are 4:3 instead of 16:9 but a lot of anime from the 90's hold up better than any live action stuff in terms of the look.

But that isn't what Gundam is about in those universes. It isn't like Gundam pilots don't max out their suits in every show. They aren't super robot shows as they are just meant to be the latest military tech but still fall within the same guidelines as the other suits they fight.
