So has there been an in universe reason why there are so many Mobile suit types and variations in the various universes?

The exact same reason there's so many variants of real guns and vehicles. They're modified and improved to match different circumstances and challenges. Every time one side makes a better suit, the other side makes an even better one, and so-on. There's also personal variants for pilots with specific skills, different companies making different versions, suits that are repaired and given new designations based on the amount of changes, etc.

What do you guys think of the Stardust Memory series?
Thinking of buying it cause it's cheap and I like Kou and the GP series in the video games I've played with them in it. ...But I have the feeling Nina's gonna really piss me off. |

I always thought (and this is my inner conservative speaking here) that all these large governments had so many mobile suits just so they could have the designers keep their jobs and still output, much as government does. Quote:

- The mobile suit designs are some of the best the franchise has ever offered in my opinion. The only two I don't really find that great are the GP02 and the GP03. Everything else though I think is a well executed evolution of the designs and on a personal level the GP01 Zeph ranks within my top favorite designs of actual Gundams. - The soundtrack is honestly the single greatest thing about the show. I'd go as far as to call it the greatest soundtrack of any Gundam project. - The story starts of pretty mediocre. Typical fare with a decent little arc about an ex Zeon pilot. However it shortly afterwards sinks into being utter garbage and the ending left my utterly angry, something which I never really am when it comes to television or films. - The characters are just as mediocre to bad. Kou and the remaining crew are bland and the Zeon side suffers the same fate. Again the only good character is that ex pilot. As for Nina...she's the worst character I have ever seen in Gundam and ranks second on my list of characters I hate and would love to see get killed. Overall while the OVA has an amazing soundtrack and some great designs, the mediocre plot and characters drag it down and eventually sinks it with the ending and with Nina. I've compared it to being as bad as Wing and I have a hard time saying which is worse. On a critical level I would say Wing. But on a personal basis no show has ever left me as angered as Stardust Memory. Watch it if you want but take my warning that it really, really, really isn't that good and is a product I think you'd be better off just buying the kits for because they look cool rather than spending your time and money on watching the show and walking away in a bad spot.

It would have been a lot better had it been 6-8 episodes. The last few bits of the show are great, but the majority of the show deals with Nina and her two love interests more than a good story.

Physialis to me looks WAAAAY too chunky and crappy. I know it's heavily armored, but dear lord the artstyle doesn't make it look half decent at all. The feet are just a monstrosity, the thrusters on the side look dumb and never made any sense to me. Zephyrantes doesn't look much better either. It has this weird uncanny valley look between being bigger and bulkier like the ZZ and the slim and sleek RX-78 that doesn't really work for either style. |
