Destroy is easily my favorite massive Gundam. That original one was just terrifying as it carved a path of ruin across Europe. The later units may have been nerfed all to hell, but that doesn't change how devastating the original was. Besides, it's a double reference in one unit: nodding to the Psycho Gundam in Mobile Suit mode and the Big Zam in Mobile Armor mode.
The natural pilots were just unable to do anything with it, especially when fighting against a team with winning experience fighting one of theirs that actually was well piloted.
@@MuhammadKharismawan That would make sense if not for the simple truth there would be room for massive computers to run AI assistance. The simple truth is they nerfed them because hey wanted to make the new gundams seem powerful. Heck even the first battle realistically the Freedom should have had overwhelming issues killing it simply because it would have armor that was so thick that only he heaviest beam weapons should have had a effect. But well plot contrivance.
@@spartanonxy you’re forgetting exactly how the freedom killed it, it specifically targeted the destroy’s chest beam cannons with it’s beam sabers while said cannons were charging to fire
@@spartanonxy it’s one way to deal with that kind of enemy since it ultimately uses the energy that was building up in the cannons to destroy the machine (if Stella had received the same blow to the other cannons then it wouldn’t have done the same level of damage). The same thing would’ve happened if it was either of the psycho gundams in that situation
In defense of the Destroy. The first time we saw it when it was an Absolute Unit. It was being piloted by Stella who was losing her mind and it basically ran wild. Then, down the line they need cannon fodder for the Destiny and Legand gundams. Most likely the pilots at that time were unknown pilots 7, 23, and 31 who were lucky to have a combined IQ of 6.
Seriously, Stella left a path of absolute destruction all across Europe in her Destroy before she was taken down. The others may be a joke, but the original was a nightmare.
@@VegetaLF7 it was still nightmare for ordinary pilot actually. But yeah for all crazy offensive and defensive weapon they have once named character engage them in melee, this huge gundam somehow got easily taken down.
@@yoshuasidharta4685 and it even became its weakness in the game, when it become mobile armor form, it's invulnerable against all long range attack and can only be melee'd.
Two reasons I can think of. The first is that When Shin learned that Stella was in the Destroy he started to hold not just himself back but the others as well since he wanted to try and "save" her, when in all honesty it would lead to her to becoming a test subject for ZAFT if captured or in the same situation or worse if the alliance got her. The other reason I can think of is more likely they wanted to show how "powerful" the new gundams were and give Luna a bit more feats on her resume. Also everyone that was not on Kira's side became a joke after Athrun defected from ZAFT... again.
G Gundam was hilariously silly and we all loved every second of it Nu is best out of them because its not an overcompensation joke and can actually function within reason as a war unit
See ? If we can get past the silly nature of G Gundam, then it's very enjoyable while being over the top. That and NU does have a reason to be that big, in order to sustain a good chunk of weaponary while not looking like it's like u said overcompensating

@@BeyondDaX Correction: *Seed Destiny* Kira Yamato. Seed Kira was borderline infamous for getting his mechs trashed, notably Strike getting nuked point-blank by Aegis and Freedom getting tossed around by Creuset before narrowly winning by a kamikaze attack, with only the torso and left arm and leg intact. Freedom's METEOR fell especially hard since Providence was using DRAGOONs to attack that huge backpack from all directions and easily tear it apart.
@@manat31790 Freedom did get trashed bad in SD, and its by Shin, it's not that Kira is that much better in SD, it's just Strike Freedom that is too tailored for Kira's style. We all know the one thing that will give fans an "ooooh!?" in the upcoming movie is the moment Strike Freedom got hit. And it look bad, SF has weak armor for all that mobility. It even shows in Gundam games, SF has one of the lowest HP in all the 3000 cost MS, but as a trade it's also one of the most reactive to inputs.
Destroy Gundam is literally just a GBF made mishmash of Big Zam and Psycho Gundam and I love every aspect of it. We refuse to believe those 5 mass produced versions exist since they appeared on the 2nd half of the series when everything went down the pooper.
That's going under the assumption that the series wasn't already in the pooper to begin with - not with model design, of course, but definitely with plot and character development (basically 0079 but with less development and more stupid people doing stupid s*** and getting away with it because the plot demands it).
Thanks, Kakarot. You gave me what I wanted. WITH THE HELP OF KYOJI!!!!!!!!!! I seriously hope that this video will give both the Raven and Grand Gundams more needed attention.
GSD riddled with issues during production. Had Destiny uses the Stardust Memories premise, it could've gone better. Better make the first half focusing on pursuing the stolen Gundams. Then second half dealing with LOGOS directly and making the Destroys the most hardest to kill. Then make another sequel where Kira re-emerges after a failed assassination attempt on Lacus making them living on the run. Destiny should've have been focus more on ZAFT and the Minerva.
I would have liked that much better. Shinn is an insufferable little shit, but maybe he could've been better if the show wasn't in such a hurry to bring Kira back. That said, Kira is the best and even though GSD is largely awful, all the good parts involve him.
Just imagine if the GP project hadn't been shut down and the EFSF continued developing and producing units like the GP03. It would have changed the course of history. A single unit had the fire power to take down an entire enemy flotilla, and it could be operated by a SINGLE PERSON.
Question: what happened to every main gundam in Universal Century after the end of the series or manga?? (if possible the Gundams from Alternate Univers to) this I hope can enter as topic for question of the week 😎
The Destroy Gundam had to become a joke, you can't have Seed protagonists struggling or developing tactics after the mid season upgrade, their performance can only be affected by how angsty or sad they are.
excuse you, thats seed destiny. og seed had them learning tactics, and some suffering from a lack of learning them better, till the end. and no, im not a kira stan, im team laflaga
@@serosen3950 The Freedom basically lets Kira bypass his main ethical dilemma by letting him shoot down almost everything in his path without killing the pilots. I did state AFTER the mid season upgrade.
@@Frog-Shaped-Slime Kira kills a fair few people in the strike on earth, Baku pilots, Waltfeld's girlfriend, the under water MS pilots and of course Nicol when he bisects the Blitz through the cockpit.
We need to see a Top 10 Biggest Non Gundam Mobile Suits. Kshatriya/Repaired Nightingale Sazabi Perfect Zeong Baund Doc The O Messala Queen Mansa Qubeley Rozen Zulu
@@GojiraFan-in9oo "I'm not the tallest? Lemme put my legs down...how bout now?" For real though, you can at least guestimate the Apsalus III thanks to it's Zaku II noggin. If we're doing MAs though, Neue Ziel is a biggun and I feel that Neo Zeong is cheating with the fuel cans.
The only reason the Heavens Sword Gundam's head was so big was it made the beak of the flight mode. Although they could have made it a backpack attachment that hooks to the head, like the seekers from Transformers
As the Devil Colony's tentacles were essentially city sized, if you count the "colony form" of this unit it is definitely the largest. ESPECIALLY if you include the tentacles, which bring its total "height" to larger than that of the planet's atmosphere itself. Even before the colony stuff though, it did also do that thing where it was a bunch of tentacles with Gundam heads on them.
I also loved the destroy gundam even though it has no melee weapons. Those extended pilots are more of a problem than a solution in both seed and seed destiny. Imagine if the destroy was stolen by the coordinators.
The bio CPUs aka 3 Druggies in SEED gave Kira and Athrun very little room to breath when they're stable. It reminds me of Universal Soldier where heat can disable a UniSol if fighting without cooling down for too long, especially in hot weather. Take the concept of Universal Soldier except for the reanimating the corpse part and put it into the Extendeds in GSD. The strongest Coordinators would have a hard time against them. One stable Extended in a Destroy would be able to wipe out one carrier battle group with ease.
Finally someone remembered Chan existed, and got killed bye that Simp for worrying his own good. Also appreciated that you include 2 of the Devil / Dark Gundams heavenly kings since those 2 were powerfull not just because their size too
The Destroy is such an amazing design and sadly we never got, same as the Guaiz and Strike Dagger, would really love to see kits of these in the size of normal 1/100 or 1/144 kits.
My predictions for the Top 10 Smallest Gundams Crossbone (any of them) Gundam F91 Gundam F90 Nobel Gundam Any of the Gundam Wing Boyband Strike Gundam Victory Gundam
I remember when the Destroy gundam showed up in Seed. I thought I was near the end of the series since it looked like a final boss sort of enemy. But if memory serves I think that's only like half way through
MAJOR SPOILERS: You maybe right cause the first one was piloted by Stella who was basically to Shinn as Flay was to Kira The chick he likes that dies to drive him mad Stella’s death, partially caused by Kira leads to Shinn ‘killing’ Kira only for the revival and the creation of Strike Freedom Before Kira’s return though we get those mass produced ones that get practically curbstomped like a bunch of punks Where as the first was able to handle both Freedom and Impulse Gundam at the same time
I see the Destroy as GSD production in a nutshell. It could've deal damage to the Freedom, making Kira crashed and this left Shinn to deal with Stella himself. It could've develop his character further.
@@thatidiotweeb1421 Indeed Sidenote: Now this reminds me of how badly I wanna see a prequel to IBO on Calamity War! Too bad the homeland weren't exactly fans
Kakarot: "I would kill to have that thing as a giant 1/144 scale...maybe someday " Me: ask and Yee shall receive 5 day till 1/144 Destroy's Release and counting !
If manga were included AOZ would be in mentioned like 7 times Why is the reborns Gundam tall yet it seemed to be the usual 18 meter height? These things must be a pain to build and maintain and probably occupy 10% of the budget
@@BlueAmerican26 yeah it does seem like Reborns is standard size since ya know it's fighting against a Wide Shoulder Gundam like 00R. That and most of the Reborn's screen time where fights, so maybe it'll be difficult for the animators to maintain 100% accurate scale if it was in a scene filled with many movements
For honors sake: In g gundam crossrays, i put meer campbell into the Destroy and chunked her with all the cool skills. Just send her into the map, half the enemys wont hit, the other half gets positron reflected. Murders most of em in counters too. While her theme song memes along. The unit has tools vs any and all Targets.
Of this list the Psycho gundam has to be my favorite, though the MKII is clearly a step up in every way the MKI looked much better imo. I would have loved to have seen a "mass production" version that did away with the transformation and got a psycho sized beam sword, also put some proper armor on the backs of its legs... All in all it's exactly what I want out of a giant gundam though "I want a walking battle ship complete with the firepower and armor to back it up."
@@zachelkins1229 that was probably both due to the pilots of the other destroys being bad and because the zaft pilots had the knowledge from when shin fought the original destroy (plus they had 3 usable gundams instead of just the impulse)
10-Yep, I remember how much the Nu and Sazibi action figures towered over the Stardust Memory and War In the Pocket ones I had. 9-I just think Reborns turning around to transform is nifty. 8-Had to do the meme. 7-That's a big Chonky boy, and what series other than G would have to balls to make it? 6- Yes, Hathaway blows. Chan was the best UC Waifu, dang it. 5-The head is so long because it's so smart a gundam? 4-I'm not particularly fond of the Hathaway's flash suits to be honest. This one lookes like it's stuck halfway though a transformation. Sigh, I just love the concept of the Dendroubium, of just strapping a Gundam in a shit ton of weapons and thrusters and blowing fleets up. Wish it got used more. Ah, the Psycho Gundams. I don't care if it stands for Psycommu, it's still crazy to me! Also why the heck did nobody ever mount reflector bits on a Battleship? Come on, it screams hilarity! 1-Ah yes. What you get when a Big Zam and a Psycho Gundam love each other very much, or just got a little too drunk, the Destroy Gundam.
This is why I hope we get a gundam anime set between Hathaway and Victory (a more clear version of Crossbone/F91 like they are doing with "Hathaway"), maybe explore more of the UC downsizing era (love the V2 gundam for its size vs power)
The federation was in massive debt in the uc 100s due to all expermental mobile suits the bought from Anaheim during the grips war and 3 neo Zeon wars they wasted alot of money on non mass produced machines something they were already trying to fix around the time of CCA and why they created SNRI as they didn't want to deal with Anaheim and there double dealing any more. This did nothing in the long run which is why they had to relay on the league millitar in Victory as they no longer had the money to fund a modern standing military mobile suit force and this economic instability lead to their collapse in crossbone Dust. TLDR The reason for smaller machines is they entered a masive economic recession for wasting so much money on experimental chonkers
Honestly we need more series in the questioning the earth federation service that we first properly saw in zeta and continued in unicorn and now Hathaway, potentially something in the style of stardust memory that explores why there are jegan ground types terrorising earthnoids with manned crotch mounted anti personel turrets
For destroy gundam, it was great unit for anti-army/anti-fleet mobile suit. It has many good weapon and defense system. One of this gundam downside however if enemy mobile suit manage to engage in melee combat or using weaponry that capable breach destroy defense system. Kira Yamato (and later shin asuka and his friends) manage to damage and take down destroy by melee combat.
Great video, but I would like to give my two cents on why the Destroy performed so badly after Stella's. You see, when they first deployed the Destroy, the lab was insistent on using Stella, as she had the best compatibility with the proposed specs given by Acteon Industries(on paper, at least). This whole deal with compatibility is also why Sting, Auel, and Stella, despite there being still a sizable amount of other Extendeds, Bio CPUs, Combat Coordinators, and Socius clones(emotionless clones of Gud Vair, except for Finis Socius, who got the psychopathic side of Gud Vair), why the three of them were specifically chosen to steal, and subsequently became the designated pilots, of the Chos, Abyss, and Gaia respectively(that, and their teamwork scores). In fact, ever notice how they started doing badly when they lost one member of the Trio? Auel did badly in his last fight with the Impulse, despite routinely being able to fend him off before. Sting got taken out in both Berlin and Heaven's base, both after Auel's(because he had subconsciously depended Auel giving him covering fire, even after his memories got wiped) and Stella's(because he was more of a team player being effectively forced into a solo role) deaths. For the other Destroys at Heaven's Base, I believe that, excluding Sting, they basically just threw whatever Artillery-oriented Bio CPUs(the likes of Orga, Shani, and Clotho, pilots of the Calamity, Forbidden, and Raider respectively) into the other five Destroys that were stationed at that base after Acteon completed them, and they subsequently performed badly because the machines lasted longer than their drugs did(remember what happen to Clotho by the end?). By the time they attacked the Moon Base, that resource had dried up from Blue Cosmos/LOGOS basically throwing them out like expendable troops throughout the war(some died, some defected), and they probably resorted to using regular human pilots for the four in space.
With the recent Seed era revisiting from Bandai, my hopes of a 1/100 hg Destroy Gundam have become much higher. If the Nightgale can get one, so can the Destroy.
@@MaddJakd how? For a Destroy it would have to be at least the size of Psyco Gundam, which was done in 1/144, which is the precedent I’m basing my assumption on. A 1/100 would be like the size of a Mega Size 1/48 scale kit or bigger and be crazy expensive, low detail, and kind of a brick.
@@Astronopolis maybe. More as it's cool but definitely falls into the reaml of Bandai's definition of "obscure" enought that I don't see them going all in on the proper HG tech for it. At the same time, the homeland loves their SEED so anything is possible
The thing with the Destroy Gundam is if they kept the positron reflector shield that's it's equipped with a secret then ZAFT would have an even harder time trying to take the unit down as they have no clue that the thing is equipped with the reflector shield so all they're beam weaponry are useless and due to it's vast arsenals every missile fired at it well just get shot down while machine gun won't do a thing as it's probably built to make physical weaponry useless.
Hey Kakarot, I don't think it's been done before but can you maybe put together a background and history of all the prototype Astrays, Gold, Red, Blue, Green & Purple (Noir?) frames, where they were built and how they got into hands of their pilots ?
7:46 even tho the 4 evil kings were never limited to those rules. And they were so strong that Domon would have a very hard time trying to go for the head. He only did it to the Walter Gundam with Fuunsaiki's help.
Destroy Gundam's first impression: WOW! It's a walking death machine of pure carnage and destruction! So cool. I want one! Destroy GUndam's other appearance: Look at what they did to my boi! They did him dirty! This is worse than the Death Star
I had two measuring sticks here. One was the RX-78-2 Gundam at 18 meters, the other being Showa Godzilla at 50 meters. A 1/144 Psycho Gundam would be about the right size to fight larger vinyl Godzilla figures if that particular kaiju uses the Showa era's scaling.
Seeing the Deep Striker during your opening disclaimer proves if it included novels and manga, you could fill up over half the list with "SENTINEL" Mobile Suits like Ex-S, Deep Striker, the FAZZ, and the Gundam MkV.
You forgot the caveat about Devil and Grand Gundams being in a series where most Gundams were only like 16 meters tall. I also pray we get AoZ animation, so the RX124 gundam TR6 Inle can top this list. :X
I wish you had included the Plan 303E Deep Striker from Gundam Sentinel. I understand that it was never actually built in-universe, but it would have been a nice addition to this list.
I know a lot of people don't like the Hathaway era gundam designs but I just love the bulky look and all the moving parts. The Penelope especially looks some sort of dragon-esque monster in flight mode
Believe it or not they do have a model of the Destroy Gundam even though it's an HG model the thing is freaking huge for a model of that scale I mean I've seen pictures of the HG model and it is insane I mean if it's big as an HG model I hate to see what it would look like as an MG model.
I respect your list, but I'm disappointed you forgot the BIGGEST animated Gundam.... the Masive Perfect Grade Exia Gundam from Build Fighters (with the gigantic Setsuna piloting it!). They actually do have published official height numbers for Build Fighter units. I know this list is "Gundams only", but also honorable mention to the "Jumbo Grade Zaku" and Tryon-3
Devil Gundam was huge but they killed it with the power of love anyways 🤷 Also the other suits aren't really suits more like mobile armors that tend to be slow because they are so huge.
To this day, my favorite AMV is "Most Wonderful Time of the Year" set to the Destroy Gundam reeking havoc on everyone. For ironic snow/xmas reasons lol Top 10 Biggest Mobile Suits as whole is what I thought this would be, expecting that in the future
Man that is embarrassing for Destroy Gundam to get a massive joke (when you insert zealous mooks in it, it loses its plot armor and its bad enough for Windams get into that territory) and ironically I rarely get to use it much in Crossrays compared to Windams I field with Turbine girls from IBO.

Seed Kira was borderline infamous for getting his mechs trashed, notably Strike getting nuked point-blank by Aegis and Freedom getting tossed around by Creuset before narrowly winning by a kamikaze attack, with only the torso and left arm and leg intact.
Freedom's METEOR fell especially hard since Providence was using DRAGOONs to attack that huge backpack from all directions and easily tear it apart.
@@manat31790 Freedom did get trashed bad in SD, and its by Shin, it's not that Kira is that much better in SD, it's just Strike Freedom that is too tailored for Kira's style.
We all know the one thing that will give fans an "ooooh!?" in the upcoming movie is the moment Strike Freedom got hit.
And it look bad, SF has weak armor for all that mobility.
It even shows in Gundam games, SF has one of the lowest HP in all the 3000 cost MS, but as a trade it's also one of the most reactive to inputs.
Destroy Gundam is literally just a GBF made mishmash of Big Zam and Psycho Gundam and I love every aspect of it.
We refuse to believe those 5 mass produced versions exist since they appeared on the 2nd half of the series when everything went down the pooper.
That's going under the assumption that the series wasn't already in the pooper to begin with - not with model design, of course, but definitely with plot and character development (basically 0079 but with less development and more stupid people doing stupid s*** and getting away with it because the plot demands it).
Thanks, Kakarot. You gave me what I wanted.

From unstoppable juggernaut, to cannon fodder. Conservation of ninjutsu truly screwed over the Destroy gundam.
Turns out Steller was the best of the Extended. Makes sense, she had the best regular Gundam.
GSD riddled with issues during production. Had Destiny uses the Stardust Memories premise, it could've gone better. Better make the first half focusing on pursuing the stolen Gundams. Then second half dealing with LOGOS directly and making the Destroys the most hardest to kill. Then make another sequel where Kira re-emerges after a failed assassination attempt on Lacus making them living on the run. Destiny should've have been focus more on ZAFT and the Minerva.
I would have liked that much better. Shinn is an insufferable little shit, but maybe he could've been better if the show wasn't in such a hurry to bring Kira back.
That said, Kira is the best and even though GSD is largely awful, all the good parts involve him.
Just imagine if the GP project hadn't been shut down and the EFSF continued developing and producing units like the GP03. It would have changed the course of history. A single unit had the fire power to take down an entire enemy flotilla, and it could be operated by a SINGLE PERSON.
Well, Titans Test Team's jobdesk itself was like successor of GP Project directly by EF, not AE.
Question: what happened to every main gundam in Universal Century after the end of the series or manga?? (if possible the Gundams from Alternate Univers to) this I hope can enter as topic for question of the week 😎
Decommissioned likely or used for parts
People led by Mineva used the MK II in NT. And Judau used the ZZ until UC 153
That’s a good one
Kamil Chrzanowski I thought the mk 2 was destroyed?
A lot of them were destoyed in battle. The ones that weren't were definitely decommissioned and stripped for parts
The Destroy Gundam had to become a joke, you can't have Seed protagonists struggling or developing tactics after the mid season upgrade, their performance can only be affected by how angsty or sad they are.
excuse you, thats seed destiny. og seed had them learning tactics, and some suffering from a lack of learning them better, till the end. and no, im not a kira stan, im team laflaga
@@serosen3950 The Freedom basically lets Kira bypass his main ethical dilemma by letting him shoot down almost everything in his path without killing the pilots. I did state AFTER the mid season upgrade.

The only reason the Heavens Sword Gundam's head was so big was it made the beak of the flight mode. Although they could have made it a backpack attachment that hooks to the head, like the seekers from Transformers
Instead they made him a conehead
As the Devil Colony's tentacles were essentially city sized, if you count the "colony form" of this unit it is definitely the largest. ESPECIALLY if you include the tentacles, which bring its total "height" to larger than that of the planet's atmosphere itself.
Even before the colony stuff though, it did also do that thing where it was a bunch of tentacles with Gundam heads on them.
The Nu is my favourite! Could you ever do a top 10 war crimes in gundam anime?

@@bitetheasp they could limit it to when super weapons are involved
I also loved the destroy gundam even though it has no melee weapons.
Those extended pilots are more of a problem than a solution in both seed and seed destiny. Imagine if the destroy was stolen by the coordinators.
The bio CPUs aka 3 Druggies in SEED gave Kira and Athrun very little room to breath when they're stable. It reminds me of Universal Soldier where heat can disable a UniSol if fighting without cooling down for too long, especially in hot weather. Take the concept of Universal Soldier except for the reanimating the corpse part and put it into the Extendeds in GSD. The strongest Coordinators would have a hard time against them. One stable Extended in a Destroy would be able to wipe out one carrier battle group with ease.
Frankly, just putting regular pilots in them would have gotten better value from the machines.
I do like the Destroy. But, man, what a waste of heavy artillery.
God Yamato kill the first X-1 destroy gundam and the X-1 turned into a grunt unit now.
Just like the show itself. Should've keep focusing on Minerva and ZAFT.
I agree, through I couldn't help but use a Destroy against its own brothers at Logos base at the Moon in Crossrays.
Finally someone remembered Chan existed, and got killed bye that Simp for worrying his own good.
Also appreciated that you include 2 of the Devil / Dark Gundams heavenly kings since those 2 were powerfull not just because their size too
he was just a kid and a simp
hes matured now and not simp but like idk if they gonna make hathaway simp a dead girl in the movie we never know
But then again Chan just shot someone who almost successfully persuaded to give up.....
The Destroy gundam case of joke unit it could also happen with the big zam if they mass produced
Yeah something like that need a proficient pilots, it might be different if destroy was made by zaft, but it's made by naturals
First time I saw the Destroy, I couldn't but think, "That's just a smaller Big ZAM with extra steps!"
Props to using the Penelope theme for its placement, probably the best OST to come from Hathaway's Flash

The Destroy is such an amazing design and sadly we never got, same as the Guaiz and Strike Dagger, would really love to see kits of these in the size of normal 1/100 or 1/144 kits.

I remember when the Destroy gundam showed up in Seed. I thought I was near the end of the series since it looked like a final boss sort of enemy. But if memory serves I think that's only like half way through
MAJOR SPOILERS:
You maybe right cause the first one was piloted by Stella who was basically to Shinn as Flay was to Kira
The chick he likes that dies to drive him mad
Stella’s death, partially caused by Kira leads to Shinn ‘killing’ Kira only for the revival and the creation of Strike Freedom
Before Kira’s return though we get those mass produced ones that get practically curbstomped like a bunch of punks
Where as the first was able to handle both Freedom and Impulse Gundam at the same time
I see the Destroy as GSD production in a nutshell. It could've deal damage to the Freedom, making Kira crashed and this left Shinn to deal with Stella himself. It could've develop his character further.

Why is the reborns Gundam tall yet it seemed to be the usual 18 meter height?
These things must be a pain to build and maintain and probably occupy 10% of the budget
It wasnt. Side by side it towers over the 00. When fighting the 00 it probably didnt seem as tall because of how wide the 00 was.
@@BlueAmerican26 yeah it does seem like Reborns is standard size since ya know it's fighting against a Wide Shoulder Gundam like 00R. That and most of the Reborn's screen time where fights, so maybe it'll be difficult for the animators to maintain 100% accurate scale if it was in a scene filled with many movements
I have both 00 Raiser and Reborns Gundam in the HG 1/144 scale, and I can confirm that the Reborns Gundam is taller because of its high heels design.
yeah, the hyzenthley rah 2 might be the biggest of the aoz ms
advance of zeta has a gundam with gundams on it
For honors sake:
In g gundam crossrays, i put meer campbell into the Destroy and chunked her with all the cool skills.
Just send her into the map, half the enemys wont hit, the other half gets positron reflected. Murders most of em in counters too. While her theme song memes along. The unit has tools vs any and all Targets.
Grand Gundam = Putting a HG Head on a MG Body with PG Limbs of which they have removed the upper arms and thighs, and this is what you get!
Of this list the Psycho gundam has to be my favorite, though the MKII is clearly a step up in every way the MKI looked much better imo. I would have loved to have seen a "mass production" version that did away with the transformation and got a psycho sized beam sword, also put some proper armor on the backs of its legs... All in all it's exactly what I want out of a giant gundam though "I want a walking battle ship complete with the firepower and armor to back it up."
I prefer the destroy for those same reasons
@@jakealter5504 A very reasonable choice. I think for my part I just can't get over the severe jobbing of all the secondary instances.
@@zachelkins1229 that was probably both due to the pilots of the other destroys being bad and because the zaft pilots had the knowledge from when shin fought the original destroy (plus they had 3 usable gundams instead of just the impulse)
meanwhile that cancelled Hollywood Gundam live-action movie project during the 80's has a redesigned RX-78-2 that is freaking 50 meters tall.
Mega Gundam Rx78/50 that what I'd call it that bigger then Megazord isn't it
what if they released a HG Destroy gundam? that would definitely epic, terrifying and expensive
I mean, he did get HG Neo Zeong and Dendrobium
wasn't there a HG METEOR? these things are about the same size if not bigger
10-Yep, I remember how much the Nu and Sazibi action figures towered over the Stardust Memory and War In the Pocket ones I had.
9-I just think Reborns turning around to transform is nifty.
8-Had to do the meme.
7-That's a big Chonky boy, and what series other than G would have to balls to make it?
6- Yes, Hathaway blows. Chan was the best UC Waifu, dang it.
5-The head is so long because it's so smart a gundam?
4-I'm not particularly fond of the Hathaway's flash suits to be honest. This one lookes like it's stuck halfway though a transformation.
Sigh, I just love the concept of the Dendroubium, of just strapping a Gundam in a shit ton of weapons and thrusters and blowing fleets up. Wish it got used more.
Ah, the Psycho Gundams. I don't care if it stands for Psycommu, it's still crazy to me! Also why the heck did nobody ever mount reflector bits on a Battleship? Come on, it screams hilarity!
1-Ah yes. What you get when a Big Zam and a Psycho Gundam love each other very much, or just got a little too drunk, the Destroy Gundam.
Glad I had just finished my drink before hearing the line "you team killing simp". 😂
Appreciate you showcasing this theme!!
This is why I hope we get a gundam anime set between Hathaway and Victory (a more clear version of Crossbone/F91 like they are doing with "Hathaway"), maybe explore more of the UC downsizing era (love the V2 gundam for its size vs power)
The federation was in massive debt in the uc 100s due to all expermental mobile suits the bought from Anaheim during the grips war and 3 neo Zeon wars they wasted alot of money on non mass produced machines something they were already trying to fix around the time of CCA and why they created SNRI as they didn't want to deal with Anaheim and there double dealing any more. This did nothing in the long run which is why they had to relay on the league millitar in Victory as they no longer had the money to fund a modern standing military mobile suit force and this economic instability lead to their collapse in crossbone Dust.
TLDR The reason for smaller machines is they entered a masive economic recession for wasting so much money on experimental chonkers
Honestly we need more series in the questioning the earth federation service that we first properly saw in zeta and continued in unicorn and now Hathaway, potentially something in the style of stardust memory that explores why there are jegan ground types terrorising earthnoids with manned crotch mounted anti personel turrets
For destroy gundam, it was great unit for anti-army/anti-fleet mobile suit. It has many good weapon and defense system. One of this gundam downside however if enemy mobile suit manage to engage in melee combat or using weaponry that capable breach destroy defense system. Kira Yamato (and later shin asuka and his friends) manage to damage and take down destroy by melee combat.
that jingle for the promotion...
"every day great at your JUNES~" intensified
The only reason that the Grand Master Gundam isn't here is cuz there's no quantifiable data on it
Cuz it's easily bigger than than the Destroy Gundam.
Great video, but I would like to give my two cents on why the Destroy performed so badly after Stella's.
You see, when they first deployed the Destroy, the lab was insistent on using Stella, as she had the best compatibility with the proposed specs given by Acteon Industries(on paper, at least). This whole deal with compatibility is also why Sting, Auel, and Stella, despite there being still a sizable amount of other Extendeds, Bio CPUs, Combat Coordinators, and Socius clones(emotionless clones of Gud Vair, except for Finis Socius, who got the psychopathic side of Gud Vair), why the three of them were specifically chosen to steal, and subsequently became the designated pilots, of the Chos, Abyss, and Gaia respectively(that, and their teamwork scores). In fact, ever notice how they started doing badly when they lost one member of the Trio? Auel did badly in his last fight with the Impulse, despite routinely being able to fend him off before. Sting got taken out in both Berlin and Heaven's base, both after Auel's(because he had subconsciously depended Auel giving him covering fire, even after his memories got wiped) and Stella's(because he was more of a team player being effectively forced into a solo role) deaths.
For the other Destroys at Heaven's Base, I believe that, excluding Sting, they basically just threw whatever Artillery-oriented Bio CPUs(the likes of Orga, Shani, and Clotho, pilots of the Calamity, Forbidden, and Raider respectively) into the other five Destroys that were stationed at that base after Acteon completed them, and they subsequently performed badly because the machines lasted longer than their drugs did(remember what happen to Clotho by the end?). By the time they attacked the Moon Base, that resource had dried up from Blue Cosmos/LOGOS basically throwing them out like expendable troops throughout the war(some died, some defected), and they probably resorted to using regular human pilots for the four in space.
Impressive analysis, my friend.

@@Astronopolis IDK.
The real mechanics lines seems primed for such
@@MaddJakd how? For a Destroy it would have to be at least the size of Psyco Gundam, which was done in 1/144, which is the precedent I’m basing my assumption on. A 1/100 would be like the size of a Mega Size 1/48 scale kit or bigger and be crazy expensive, low detail, and kind of a brick.

Somewhere in OMNI R&D, the head researcher screamed "MORE!" when designing the Destroy.
Destroy Gundam: Are you a Gundam?

The thing with the Destroy Gundam is if they kept the positron reflector shield that's it's equipped with a secret then ZAFT would have an even harder time trying to take the unit down as they have no clue that the thing is equipped with the reflector shield so all they're beam weaponry are useless and due to it's vast arsenals every missile fired at it well just get shot down while machine gun won't do a thing as it's probably built to make physical weaponry useless.
