I don't think that's the forearms. it's the super-articulated wrist. the arm is positioned to be twisted in ward like many ms design-arts. if you go to gundam wikia and look at gm sniperII colored portrait, you'll know what I mean. also, the indentation on the upper inner arm suggests it is probably there to dodge the shoulder armor.
I find this design fun and somewhat new. The face resemble the Age-2 more than Age-1 But on Earth is wrong with the arm??? I mean, this guy is a Goddamn Close-range with Big-ass Sword MS, and yet, the arm's proportion are just....off
Ah, now I see one more thing, this guy's arms probably have a hidden moving joint inside his shoulder armor. So there are 2 joints on each arm, 1 at the wrist, and 1 at the shoulder, each would serve a 90 degree bent. But it still looks off
Another Thing I noticed is the body and face.. took reference from Raphael Gundam. color scheme collar and beard. they are not identical but somewhat similar or at least reminds mo of it.
Then why since it's "legendary" which means the gundam came from medieval age where any war mostly using sword? Aanywaay, i miss "legendary" yellow horn in every gundam's head..
It seems that all off the parts except the arm being mix and match from the existing gundam units AGE 2 modified head along with AGE FX back fin, AGE 1 legs, AGE 3 Orbital skirt armor, and G-Bouncer Torso.
If one to scratch build the arms and blade, this unit can be created from the previously released HG units or so it seems...
It looks interesting yes, but no where near as advanced as it should look. If this thing was created from the same data that created Cid then why does it look so old school, and less advanced that the age 1? Shouldent it look more advanced since it was created with more advanced technology?
the arms look kind of weird, but everything else is really cool... will we even get a model kit? i hope by some miracle that we do, i really like this...
The arms are acutally just a bit shorter than an average mobile suit. the only really different part is the length of the forearm which is usually a bit longer than this.
I'm okay with this thing from the waist down, but the upper body, head and arms aren't doing it for me. Elbows are in an awkward place and aren't double-jointed (hinders movement), arms are too short, head looks goofy, chest is so-so. The leg segmentation would have been great on the original AGE-1 (except none of that awful black striping). The way the yellow bits interlock with the grey wraparounds is stylistically neat and it would have done much to break up the monotony of the AGE-1's legs (this is why I like Seven Sword knees on a standard 00 Gundam).
since 00, gundam is drifting away from its "Gundam" trademark look, more and more gundams have no horizontal air vents on its face mask, it becomes a very generic robot, it ain't doing it for me, how much more are they going to alter the image of gundams? i disliked AGE, and if this is how future gundams will be, they might as well change the title and nobody will notice the difference, and i won't be watching future gundams anymore..("_)
Personally, I welcome anyone who can design Gundams that look radically different and still be recognizable. It's not like Ebikawa's designs are a complete departure, nor are they the first ones to go off into another direction (Turn A anyone? Astrays? Not even the Zetas looked traditional.)

okey, the face looks weird but the legs and sword looks gread
ReplyDeleteIm with you about the face its really weird
DeleteFace looks like the Reborns Gundam

ReplyDeleteINEEDPG
DeleteYou win this round...
Deleteso is this mobile suit in the painting that asuno see in his childhood?
ReplyDeleteLegendary gundam need a legendary long beard.
ReplyDeleteThat red horn on the back of the head is tricky...Well the painting was really blurred back then :D
ReplyDeleteSo that hole is part of the design?
ReplyDeletesomehow that triangular face reminds me of Reborns Gundam
ReplyDeleteoh, it's the beard..
what the hell? this...
ReplyDelete....actually looks good :)
whoa... extremely short forearms. O_O looks ok standing still.. but I have a feeling this looked ridiculous when in action.
ReplyDeleteyea.... too short for action..
Delete^ That's what she said. . .

DeleteThis is good!
ReplyDeleteI like it!
Has a bit of Super Robot vibe.
Somehow reminds me of Extreme Gundam.
Would be cool to have an AGE prequel spawn from this design :P
Gundam always be super robot. Just look at that zeta the ghost gundam....

ReplyDeleteoh oh he might stab himself in the chest with that pointy chin of his!

ReplyDeleteCheck out the beard on ol' man gundam.
ReplyDeleteThe design is interesting. The arms need to be re-proportioned, but the overall look is interesting.
THE NEW MECH DESIGNS ARE TOTAL SHIT!!!
ReplyDeleteTHESE NEW SO CALLED MECHANICAL DESIGNERS NEED TO BE SHOT!!!
I GUESS THIS CRAP FITS "AGE" aka "ABSOLUTE GARBAGE ENTRIES" PERFECTLY...
Derp, this designer is the same as 00's.
Deletewell i guess your mum's middle name spells garbage, which gave birth to one like you
DeleteNow this, is what should have been the age-1!
ReplyDeleteGosh that chestpiece totally looks like Dragonar's!
ReplyDeleteWow, so this is Age Zero, the Gundam of Legend that Flit saw in that painting. It looks interesting.
ReplyDeleteI would buy a MG of this but they first need to fix the arms.
ReplyDeleteI always thought the gundam in the painting was supposed to be the rx-78-2 just smeared and blurred to be more ambiguous, I guess not.
ReplyDeleteNow for the obligatory joke: Why the long face?
the arms look kind of weird, but everything else is really cool... will we even get a model kit? i hope by some miracle that we do, i really like this...
ReplyDeleteWould be nice to see this in action.

DeleteZeta and Turn A didn't have mouth vents and neither did quite a few of the Seed Gundams last I remember. This is hardly new to 00 or Age.
DeleteOK THEN F*$% OFF FROM THE GUNDAM COMMUNITY
Deletei think the red fin at the face act as a beard.....that's why it called legendary and with sword. it's like old master sifu with sword. ~^^
ReplyDeleteJust imagine your removed your arm (the segment between your shoulder and elbow) and connected your elbow to your shoulder instead.
ReplyDeletethis much better than the age 1 but still cant defeat age 2 hehe:)
ReplyDeletevery short hand, the shoulder ady fine
ReplyDeletescrew the watermarks. hope gginfinite folds up.
ReplyDeleteSome of these could make nice wallpapers but the added watermarks ruin that.
DeleteAre they going to be selling this as a kit? 1/100 scale MG maybe?
ReplyDeleteAll of us know this one will has the MG. Just wait.
DeleteOMFG!!!! UGLIEST Gundam ever for the useless series ever!!!
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree more.
DeleteThis is still better and stronger than most of gundams you know!
DeleteYou fool! There are hundreds of mobile suits more powerful than that bearded shit up there! The Endbringer has spoken his judgement.
DeleteReminds me of a mix between 0 Gundam, Age-2, and a bit of Zeta.
ReplyDeleteThe strangely proportioned arms are really growing on me
ReplyDeleteI wouldnt mind shelling out some money for a 1/100 model of this
ReplyDeleteBROLY
ReplyDeleteDamn it Bandai, we still doesnt have any MG from X and this ugly suit have 1/100
ReplyDeleteThis one is one of the most awesome MS design in Gundam series you know.
DeleteIf only gundam unicorn was as cool as this gundam...
ReplyDeleteSo true
Deleteare they gonna release a MG of this kit? >.<
