Finally, someone who makes sense.

Revive Destiny Gundam please

Which is fair enough, but those aren't problems unique to the series. It's just a quality of 70s anime in general.

They also altered the head and generally made small structural improvements.

And TBF, the limited knees were the only real issue outside of fragility. The best a new Unicorn could do is have double-jointed knees. What would you improve?

Are you saying the shitty ankles are inherent in Unicorn's design and there's not much you can do to change without sacrificing show accuracy/sculpt?

Kinda, yeah. Due almost entirely to that part of the foot that becomes ankle armour in destroy mode, the ankle needs to be needlessly complicate dto facilitate that part floating up to join the leg whilst still having motion for both modes.

I think maybe the PG does it better because it's a PG, but even then I've seen people less than enthused by it. Unicorn's a fiddly design by nature, since it's all telescoping joints and panels extending out. Telescoping joints are always going to be more prone to falling back in, make an entire figure out of them and I'm surprised the Unicorn isn't more fragile.

The Ver Ka Unicorn is a fragile mess. I've heard stories of people breaking their's....

We're talking about the Ver OVA, though. It fixed a lot of the structural problems as well as added better knees and resculpted head panels.

I mean it's still more fragile than a normal MG because it transforms but it's not needlessly so.

So there's an article about this guy and his friends who dress up as mobile suits when snowboarding....

Wow. Just, wow.

I'm bored. I found G-savoior on youtube. Should I watch it?
