Exia is probably one of the most unique main mobile suit design out there. Also +5 more points for being an close combat gundam too.

You know what I fear of the Star Winning Gundam Real Mode? I just hope it doesn't become back heavy since pretty much the whole SD head becomes a backpack.

You're right.

And Turn A is good. Being different is just a bonus.

If I crumpled up a paper bag and spray-painted it orange and called it a gundam, would that make it the best gundam ever just because it is "different"? No, it wouldn't.

If you're that God-damned ignorant I'm sure you'd love a crumpled-up mess. Afterall there's some Gundams that have so much going on they practically look crumpled at a distance.

Giving a gundam a mustache does not make it good.

But sticking a big stupid V on it's head does?

How is the moustache so much more crazy than any given Gundam head design?

Turn A is brilliant. It basically joins the typical crest-with-red-center with the red "beard" (which it also somehow not stupid to you) for a really cool effect, almost like a subtle dragon motif combined with the back crest, while the rest of the suit is just plain sleek. It's iconic, unique, attractive, dynamic, all that good shit, and without relying on tired conventions.

It has circles in it's legs. Whoopdie-doo. It's still the same basic angular proportions as most Gundams.

Turn A is so damned sleak, and the head design is unlike any other Gundam. Even it's rifle is this cool futuristic thing and not just a grey gun like 99% of all Gundam weapons.

Firstly, I would not contest that all of the 00/Age suits look the same. The mobile suits designed as them being very close to thier introduction in warfare, so it makes a bit of sense why they loo similar. But for the Turn A, it is thousands of years in between the furthest U.C. suit we see and the correct century.

And also whoa, its getting a little tense in here guys. Let's not get all up in each other's opinion on MS designs and calling each other stupid over it. While I think the SEED designs are some generic bullshit, I'm not gonna bash someone who does like it over the head with my opinion.

Remember, bub, I wasn't the one who went after shit to start. I was just talking about how nice Turn A was, and then people came in with the vinegar. I'd never have brought it up otherwise. Can't take it, don't dish it.

And besides, my point stands. What about a typical V-crest or red beard is so acceptable while the moustache is taboo? I think they're all perfectly acceptable.

Sometimes, you gotta be the better person and stop yourself before it goes any further.

Tell that to him. I was having a gay old time before he had to make it ugly. Disagreeing's one thing, making a stink is another. But the stink's stunk, might as well smell.

I've had this argument before, and I'm really tired of the armies of people who worship that show. If you like what you like, that's fine, just don't act like it's unarguably amazing. My problem isn't the mustache itself. It's the fact that it doesn't belong on the MS at all. A mustache on the Butler Bensouman from G-Gundam works because the entire design is laughably stupid, and the 'stache is just the icing on the crazy cake. But the Turn A is, mustache aside, a very serious-looking design. And the swoopy, cartoony mustache completely destroys that aesthetic. I've seen many good-looking renditions of the Turn A that work because they turn the 'stache into triangular side fins, resulting in a more unified design.

Geez what did I do to you? I was just expressing how I felt about Exia since Yellow posted a picture of it.

Okay, what the hell? I gave my opinion, and just like every other time I've said anything bad about Turn A, I get a bucket of nerd rage dumped on my head.
