Nostaligic Fiction: Gundam Beast

I was just browsing around on facebook and found myself staring at Plamo Addiction's page at couple of images of these Gundam Beasts.  I was like...WOW, I dig it.  I really dig it. 

Then I did some digging around...only to be surprised that there were even more of these crazy sick Gundam designs on the web.  Apparently, these images were from 'Nostaligic Fiction Gundam Beast'.  it was a fan work by an artists' circle who call themselves Atelier Tobiuo, which basically depict Gundams that transform into animals.  And they also published a follow-up known as 'Nostalgic Fiction Gundam:Beast Estrus'.  Really awesome stuff here.  Now how did I missed all these!??

If Bandai is looking for a new concept for their next Gundam series, they should really take note from these guys.  I wouldn't mind watching a new series with these Gundams in it, and also buying all the gunplas as well. 


And to give where credit is due:
Comicket Circle: Atelier Tobiuo

Mecha Designer :
- Kuramochi Kyoryu (Gundam Handred , Badd Gundam , Gundam Velner , Early , and Tom Designer )
-Yanagi Joe (Gundam Giraffe Designer )
- Shitake Urimo ( Psy Gundam Designer )
Character Designer: 
- Shitake Urimo

  9. The gundam design looks good especially the lion ones which remind me of liger zero forms from Zoids but some of the animal form looks kinda awkward.

  10. IM not a big fan of the animals but the artwork and mecha design were just as good and original as gundam 00 artwork this would make great proof for an april fools prank. Again just f*&*(Y(( awesome artwork.

  13. im also working on a gundam based ideas theses guys have or should have earned the respect of anyone who calls themself gundam fans no matter the timeline i think the future of gundam will survive only in the hands of fans such as this ideas that are new catchy and daring .....on a side note this would be a show id love to watch over gundam age the system idea in the show is good mech and character design not a big fan hopfully they notice this is an idea worth expanding
