  1. LOL, those gundams really are taking their time to do planking, the worm and rolling around :D

  2. You ever wanted an example of just how hard it would be to make a working Gundam, there you go.

  3. Of course a Gundam can't stop an Ohmu. You need a young, glider-flying princess of the wind for that ^_^

  4. Y'know, when people want to disprove the feasibility of mobile suits, it usually goes on the route of assuming that even if science and resources were available to even create a Gundam, that there still lies the question of the practicality of twenty meter-tall war machines (let alone war machines developed for close combat) in a world where tanks and aircraft can pick off targets from far distances. A video using physics akin to the kind from cheaply-made games with similar physics (Toribash comes to mind, but there's a wrestling one where you have to knock opponents off of custom-made platforms, I forgot the name of it) needn't be necessary, in my view. *shrug*

    It's interesting in a way or two, but as I'm watching these videos, I'm getting some vibe that it's just a basic slap to Gundam and mecha fans with the puppet-like movements, asking why people (such as us) like a science fiction franchise based on war machines in a universe (of it's own, as in not in our real world) where it is plausible that they can be (and are) advanced enough for human-like movement/mobility (with verniers and other gizmos for superior-than mobility) and superb combat abilities (in a universe where they can easily beat tanks, fly around, and bust space colonies), and asks again after rejecting "rule of cool" as a reason for liking it.

    Maybe it's just me, though, and getting such vibes weren't the intention of the creator of these videos, and that he/she was just making some little science video or something. Still, I don't think it was worth a post here, let alone almost a dozen-and-a-half screenshots. But I'm not GG, he thinks it's interesting, and he is maintaining a website I visit (plus a store) that I like, so... *shrug*
