how about a funny scenario that ZAFT stole the 'wrong' 5 Gundams as in they instead stolen the 5 Astray Frames and being unaware of the G-Project Gundams until the destruction of Heliopolis, probably found by Junk Guild + one unit given to Serpent Tail and one being in the hands of the Sahaku's.

In each scenario the alliance's mass production unit will probably change

Kira Yamato: "I don't want to fight, but sometimes it's the only way that I can protect what's important."

I think Kira getting the Duel Gundam would go almost exactly the same, as the Duel out of four would probably be the easiest to retrofit to be able to use the Stricker packs.

This just makes me want a new "Gihren's Greed"-esque Gundam war/strategy game, released in North America as well; this time involving tons of possible alternate scenarios for the *Cosmic Era timeline* depending on how you play. 1. What if the original intended crew for the Archangel survived? 2. What if the Creuset team managed to steal *all* of the G-weapons? 3. What if the Creuset team *_failed_* to steal any of the G-weapons? 4. What if the Astray Frames got more directly involved in the war [supporting the Archangel]? 5. What if the fact [that a Coordinator is piloting the Strike] was leaked to the PLANTs? 6. What if the Creuset team failed to get through Artemis' defenses? 7. What if George Allster was rescued? 8. What if the Archangel stayed with the 8th Fleet? 9. What if the CGUE completely replaced the GINN [early on] as ZAFT's mainstay mass-production MS? 10. What if Andrew Waltfeld & Aisha survived unscathed? 11. What if Kira really was killed at the Marshall Islands? 12. What if Lacus was assassinated? 13. What if the "Cyclops" bomb (at JOSH-A base in Alaska) either didn't detonate or was stopped? 14. What if Orb accepted ZAFT's aid during the Earth Alliance's invasion? 15. What if mass produced MS based on the G-Project were developed early on? And *_so_* many more....

Yeah, it sounds like if Kira had gotten the Duel Gundam, the story would have played out a lot more like Amuro's story. Because as "underpowered" as the duel was compared to the rest of it's kids (being the alpha prototype for G weapons) it's also the most well rounded, with the most potential for personalization and modification. Plus it's Gae Bulg Bazooka was nuts. It definitely would have changed the least of the conflict out of all the Gundams though, so probably the easiest AU for our fanfiction writing friends.

I love the idea of Kira getting either Aegis or Blitz. Imagine Kira improving upon Mirage Colloid to the point where it no longer has set backs early on is a scary thing indeed. An Aegis piloted by Kira would probably end up with either very inhuman movement patterns in both transformation modes or we'll get an early glimpse at the Eclipse Gundam, transformable but have striker packs bolted on or something.

So, the Blitz and Aegis gundams are the best choices for Alt timelines.

If the Blitz scenario ends that way, then Rau probably wins and humanity loses, since his goal never would have changed. PLANT/ZAFT gets nuked, the Providence, Freedom and Justice with METEORs are likely able to protect GENESIS long enough to fire at Earth.

I do laugh at Impulse being just "one mobile suit" with what I imagined to be a mountain of "spare" chest and leg flyers waiting ready on the Minerva.

Actually, I'd imagine Kira would develop further as a traditional Ace Pilot(and as an overall all- rounder too) if he started out with the Buster, since as it is focused around mid-long range, he would have to learn to be creative with his usage of long range as well as shoot things much earlier than he would initially do with the Strike. And let's not forget how more reliant he would be on SEED Mode as the initial struggles he would have at the beginning might allow him to further improve his already Improbable Aiming Skills as the show progresses to the point where he can(and will) use his long range weapons at close targets with frightening impact(never mind the fact he can just cover the screen with the occasional shotgun spray). His only real problems would be dealing with High Mobility units at a safe enough distance until he can learn how to predict their movements, of course. It isn't a generalist suit like the Strike, but it is specialized enough for him to abuse any advantages he has to it's fullest potential. Never mind the possibility of still having access to the Striker Packs if they were not stolen, so he can always just jury rig those weapons to lesser effectiveness if he ever needed them.

Loved the "What of" since Gundam is full of alternate realities like Universal Century and others.

We *really* need official "What If" shows for Gundam. What if Amuro got Alex? What if Kamile joined the Titans? What if Kira got a different starting Gundam? What if Athrun stole Legend Gundam? So many neat possibilities.

One possibility that I'm surprised you didn't mention concerning all four of these alternate scenarios: Considering that the Archangel crew could still have the Striker Packs in these scenarios, what's the stop Kira and the Archangel's mechanics from effectively kitbashing various components of the Striker Packs onto the Gundam that they have? Like the Buster on its own might be a slowpoke, but what about with a jury-rigged Aile Pack? The Duel is basically a Pack-less Strike, so why wouldn't the crew be able to figure out a way to graft a few parts of the Packs onto it? And frankly, the Blitz potentially carrying an Agni rifle is kind of the SCARIEST thing in CE at that point.

I feel like they would just convert the Duel into using Striker packs since the Archangel was the hanger for all the packs. Duel has used a modded IWSP in the Manga.

babe wake up new Kakarot197 video

I'd say the Blitz is my favorite. Use the Mirage Colloid even before meeting the 8th Fleet, and Kira saves himself a whole host of Flay-inducing headaches down the line since her dad would still be alive. Hell, Flay may never have used Lacus as a human shield and bargaining chip if he defeats the le Creuset team fast enough. Not sure what happens to Lacus in this situation. Even with Admiral Halberton's support and backing, Kira is getting a hostile reception from most of the Alliance because he is a Coordinator, and the Blue Cosmos-controlled faction would look for any way to get rid of him and the Archangel. But make it look realistic by setting it during a battle, and fucking them over in some way that can be said to be out of their control.

Honestly, I kind of want to see the "Kira gets the Aigis Gundam?" scenario get expanded on like "what if Amuro got the Alex Gundam?" Because it'd be fun to see the full ramifications of this change, would this mean that Kira would then be piloting the Judtice while Athrun gets the Freedom? Also it'd be fun to see the Blitz, and Duel what ifs as well. Shame about the Buster though could there be a plot armor fueled scenario where you can think of a way the buster could work?

Too easy. The plot armor carries over to whatever suit Kira uses.

Hey Kakarot When will you be making the Top 10 THICCEST Gundam and Non gundam MS??

Stealth Assassin Kira would be pretty cool

The Blitz and Ageis (can't spell) situation is most intriguing and thinking about it gives me shivers.

You have forgotten the fact that ZAFT DID build a Striker Pack compatible MS of their own. The ZGMF X-12A Testament. In Gundam Seed Destiny Astray, it was captured by the Earth Alliance before ZAFT managed to design their own Striker Pack for it. In the story, it was created to 'Research' the EA's Striker Pack technology. Presumably, the X-12A Testament was designed to use captured EA Striker Packs. The Junk Guild made the ZGMF X-12 Astray Out Frame out of a spare ZGMF X-12A Testament frame that Lowe Gule found in Genesis Alpha. There were 2 Genesis cannons made. The ZGMF X-56S Impulse was a combination of the ZGMF X-101 Zaku Splandor's Silhouette Flyer technology and is based on the ZGMF X-12A Testament's Striker Pack interchangeable armaments design philosophy.

I'd still like to hear about a interesting timeline where Zaft stole every Gundam, forcing the "good guys" to create a brand new suit, designed to fight all of them. Creating a massive power struggle and war. Idk lol

Athrun takes the bullet and dies. Kira gets the Aegis and the pilot that died in the original gets the Strike. For a 'twist of fate' scenario, it's the only thing that makes sense, especially since the other mobile suits were outside of the complex. Kira, not going against Athrun, doesn't have his dilemma and turns cold hearted. He becomes a full on soldier. Rather than losing fights against their pursuers, he kills off one or more of the other Gundams. The Archangel returns to the Earth faction as heroes, Kira is now most of the way to become an ace pilot. Orb sees where it's going and supports ZAFT behind the scenes while maintaining that they are neutral. Eventually they evacuate to space. Kira, despite his cold demeanor does not (and never would) support the nukes and would either defect before the launch happens or he'd fight from the inside.

The more I think about it, the more I like the idea of Ninja Kira with the Blitz Gundam. It would feed into his smug, dickish "don't care, had sex" side and that would've made the show much more interesting than the Mary Sue Kira we ended up getting.

We can assume that the Archangel had all the different kits for the Strike so let's say Athrun got the Strike instead. Unless he finds other pieces, the Strike in ZAFT's possession will be very ineffective.

2:40 'precaution should it get stolen' We are talking about Seed gundam right?

Seed and seed destiny mobile suit development is a fascinating thing

Depending on how useful the Gundam is, Kira would've lessen his creativity on battle because the Strike was too weak but a lot more versatile compared the other Gundams, evident on how Kira wasn't that creative on the Freedom unless he's fighting an enemy that he can't defeat easily. Blitz is the top contender on lessening his creativity despite the Blitz having loads of weapons on its arsenal, because the Blitz would easily have the right weapon for Kira on almost every situation. Aegis would be close second because it's got every simple thing a Gundam needs and Kira would only need to worry about energy consumption, plus with the Scylla he would've destroyed more ships before the Archangel would land on Earth. Buster is third but very far from the second, but Kira would have to be very creative if he ever goes melee with someone, he'd be like Lockon and his Dymanes except there's not beam sabers. How Kirs would get creative with the Buster in melee I don't have any idea yet. Duel would be very much the same except for the times when Kira had to use the armor schneider. For the Strike Packs they would've just forced Kira retrofit the Duel to be compatible with the Striker Packs, in fact the same could be said with the Buster as well.

What I love about this series of videos of yours is that it taps into the core of Gundam: it's a real robot series with most sci-fi-like features, where these what-if scenarios actually have decent bases to go on. Keep at it!

I think I remember hearing years ago that the Duel was supposed to be also made compatible with the 'Striker' Packs

Reminder that they couldn't penetrate artemis without the blitz either

Now I just want an entire series dedicated to what if Kira got the Blitz similar to what if Amuro got the Alex

What if Mu got the Strike and Kira died in the attack?

Kira with Blitz would turn Seed into Metal Gear Solid on mobile suits.

But what if Kira and Murrue had got both the strike and the aegis

A great question I’d like to ask would be what if the freedom and justice weren’t stolen

Nice sponsorship! Been playing the game for a month now, it's really fun, and the mecha designs looks awesome!

Here's a thought: Orb technicians try to evacuate the Astray Gundams, but during the fighting, they end up being abandoned next to the Alliance's equipment and so get hauled in by Archangel accidentally. Then they are discovered as Archangel is preparing for its silent run and one is determined to be suitably far enough along in development for someone who is a Natural to pilot it as Kira and his friends help rewrite the Software, discovering that the Astrays' Software Code is THEIR work! Needless to say they are unhappy not only to have been lied to about their work, but also that they were programming for something totally different which makes everyone laugh as they finally get one of the Suits up and running for a brave volunteer to fly. Resulting in two Mobile Suits and a Mobile Armor for ZAFT to have to tangle with.

Loved the post you did, I’ve always wondered what would of happened if Kira got a different machine to pilot, and now you’ve answered the question best you can and best you could asume would happen

I'm dying for a standard GM development history video!

What if Shinn's family were not killed (or at least one of them survives, either Mayu or one of his parents) due to collateral damage during the battle of Orb? Would he become less stubborn?

Kind of weird to think that in your Blitz timeline Kira may have ended up fighting along side the boosted men. I also wonder if the Alliance would of built a better mobile suit for Kira at some point. Maybe a something like a cross between the Blitz and Forbidden since both machines had the same frame.

What if the heist failed completely, resulting in Athrun and friends getting killed/captured, the Alliance getting all 5 gundams, and Kira never joining the Archangel?

Here's another what-if scenario for you: What if Biscuit Griffon had survived Carta Issue's attack on Millennium Island?

Question: What if Amuro Ray got the Strike Gundam, and the White Base was carrying the G-Weapons (minus Phase Shift Armor as we shall replace that with more sensible Lunar Titanium)? Question: Why didn't Neo Zeon use the amazing Zaku III, and what would happen if they adopted it as their newest Mainline Mobile Suit? Question: What if the Earth Federation of the Universal Century fought ZAFT instead of the Principality of Zeon? Question: Disregard how easily GN Drive powered Gundams curb-stomp them - how effective are the Mobile Suits (and Armors) of the 3 Power Blocs of the Gundam 00 / Anno Domini timeline, when compared to the Universal Century + Cosmic Era + After Colony eras. Or in other words and in short, how effective/powerful do you think the Pre GN-X mobile suits are really?

I think it's quite possible that whatever Suit Kira had would be progressively upgraded with parts from the Striker Packs to mitigate its weaknesses. Eg. the Buster would be upgraded with the Sword Striker and some extra boosters from the Aile Striker to increase its CQB potential. Duel would definitely get an Assault Shroud-like or Perfect Strike-like upgrade, except it wouldn't be modular. Blitz is already a powerful unit so it would probably get the power plant and boosters from the Aile Striker to increase its mobility and extend the Mirage Colloid's uptime and possibly the Schwert Gewehr built into the Trikeros shield system (kind of like Exia, huh?) and a shortened, shoulder-mounted Agni to supplement the beam rifle for ranged attacks thanks to the increased power output. Aegis would probably become something close to the Justice Gundam with its upgrades thanks to the Aile Striker except with a much deadlier Mobile Armor mode thanks to the increase in power and mobility.

A scenario where ZAFT got all 5 Gundams, and Kira and the Archangel then had to recruit the Astrays and work with those machines would be cool. Especially if it meant an Archangel/Junk Guild alliance. Kira working with Lowe would have been bonkers, and Lowe's confidence, worldly knowledge, and good nature would have maybe allowed Kira to dodge that Flay Alster debacle.. It would also still allow the arc with the alliance with Orb and the development of the M1.

I remember a few years a huge fight with gundam fans over 'jesus yamato' and the destruction of the original freedom. Personally I was more miffed that Kira and Lacus were never held accountable for theft

I really wished Yzak and Dearka continued to use their gundams in Destiny or at least ZAFT upgraded variants

what about a thought like, what would have happened if ZAFT wouldn't have conveniently learned about ORBs newly developed mobile suits, but instead ORB got a golden egg, in form of the professor Kira worked with telling the fellas working on the GAT's project "hey you guys, I think I got a Coordinator in my seminar, that's seriously ingenious with making OS for Robots and such", so ZAFT wouldn't only have their whole planed GUNDAM batalion, but also a perfektly customized operating system for them?

So, potential new QotW: What if Celestial Being had a fifth Gundam at the start of their Armed Interventions... and its Meister was Feldt?

The "WHAT IF?!" Gundam version would be interesting yet mind blowing.

I’m so glad this channel exists.

What if The Galactic Empire invades a Gundam planet. And what would happen next?

if you got another QandA Video...here is my question, which are the most Corrupt Earth Military in Gundam Universe? a.) Earth Federation from Universal Century (Original Series) b.) Earth Alliance from Cosmic Era (SEED series) c.) Gjallahorn from Post Disaster (IBO series)

Great work. I would love to see some “what if” theories from 00

Question: what's the deal in Gundam with sized up conventional weaponry. Meaning giant swords and proper axes(beam edged or heat hawks not included) While it's not the most common thing in the franchise (excluding things like Post Disaster) I know that a fair amount of suits like the Gouf in 08th Ms Team did use essentially a giant blade. I'm mostly curious about the in universe logic and maintenance for giant cutting weapons if that makes some sense.

Weirdly enough, when I first watched Gundam Seed and got to the scene where Athrun captured Kira, I was actually rooting for Athrun to bring him to Z.A.F.T. My thoughts back then were, you're a co-ordinator, he's your best friend, just go along with him because he's trying to save your life. Even now, I often wonder how it would have turned out if Kira joined ZAFT when Athrun first reached out to him.

Always love fun what if. Speaking of do you plan on continuing the what if Amuro got the Alex? That last vid ended on a really good cliffhanger.

Maybe "what if Kira kills Yzak during Operation Spitbreak" instead of cutting the Duel by the knees? Yzak not present during the final battle in SEED would have made quite a big change in how things could have turned out and may affect SEED destiny in a bunch of ways.. 🧐

Oh, I got an interesting one. What if everyone (or at least ace pilots) regardless of Naturals or Coordinators develop the SEED factor? Not just in the battlefield but also socially. I would like your opinion as to what would happen to the whole society if the next human evolution is achievable without going genetic modification. Would war stop? Or would war be seen as a way for evolution?

Duel would have been cool. Wasn't it like the strikes counter part or something?

man loved the butterfly effort of what if gundam seed!! lol

I already thought up of names for the Mass Produce variants of the Aegis Gundam. Because the Aegis Gundam is named after the fabled shield in Greek Mythology, might as well name them based on the types of shield. GAT-01 "Buckler" GAT-01D "Targe" GAT-01D1 "Dual Targe" GAT-01A1 "105 Buckler"

I would argue that if ZAFT managed to make an armor for the Duel when it wasn't made to wear one, they would go out of their way to either replicate the Striker packs the Strike was meant to have or create new ones, the latter of which would be worse off for the alliance, though ZAFT would still be unable to replicate the beam saber technology.

This was an awesome video! I dig these what if scenarios! Super fun! What if Kira HAD joined Zaft when Athurn offered? Maybe he talks Kira into it by promising to protect his civilian friends after they surrender, to protect them from being made into soldiers or something.

I was expecting that the perfect strike gundam would have: -Assault shroud equipments and armor -blitz gundam either the invisibility and/or the shield and claw -aegis gundam weapons bonus if they get the high speed boosters. Because that aegis is fast -buster gundam aim sensors and the transformable guns.

Honestly, I'm more interested in how the Archangel would try to retrofit the Striker Packs on the alternate Gundam they got and the custom Striker Packs ZAFT would develop for the Strike they got.

base on how zaft develop testament inorder to research the striker pack without original data from strike, and how zaft endup create wizard pack and silhouette pack. i think if they got to hijack strike at the time, they would know concept of the striker pack actualy exist and sooner and try to use the data to reverseenginering the concept. this make the weapon and ms development would be a big game for zaft.

Love these ‘what if’ scenarios where one change in the plot causes ripple effects throughout the whole series… just a thought.. if Kira were to get any of the other Gunits, wouldnt he lose the gundam in the phase shift down episode (5) where the only way out was Strikes ability to change his packs?

Once and I start off they could have given strike bazookas and stuff like that and since they realize it could have packs they probably would have started working on the packs on board the ship immediately so it could be fully utilized and since they had the other being weapon trees that you would have started trying to copy on board the ship instead of sending the information back to zafts plants

Who here would love to see a Z.A.F.T capture version of the strike? Since it had no kit it would get outfited with zaft gear like the Ginn's sword and assault rifle or even the Cgue's beam rifle and Gatling shield. Honestly the more I think about it the more I want it, I man just imagine Z.A.F.T designing the striker packs

Talking about the Aegis scenario does bring to mind a question which I hadn't thought of before but seems rather reasonable. Why didn't the Earth Alliance simply improve upon their Mobile Armor designs rather than looking at designing Mobile Suits in the first place? This isn't like the UC where the Federation put most of their eggs into their space navy basket, the Alliance had MAs to begin with and while the vanilla Moebius may have been outmatched by the enemy GINN they could simply have made a much better model or models. Not only would MAs be easier for their Natural troops to pilot - especially in tandem with multiple pilots - but they had the experience designing and building them. They also could've incorporated the Phase Shift Armour, the advanced beam weapons, mirage colloid, positron reflectors, DRAGOON system, and anything other technical advancements they had going on into them as they did with the G-Weapons but without remaking the proverbial wheel. With the potentially larger size of a Mobile Armor's frame the energy limitations from the lack of nuclear reactors could've been offset somewhat by installing even more batteries into them, which is much less of an option for an MS design. Just imagine the Euclid, Zamza-Zah, or Exus -- but facing off against the average ZAFT MS all the way back at the beginning of SEED. Besides, who knows how long it would've taken normally for the Alliance to get their mass production MS project going if they didn't have data from the Strike, which wasn't something they reasonably could've planned to have.

2:44 ...A government in SEED taking *ANY* precautions at all whatsoever for theft is completely immersion breaking

Interesting! Hadn't ever thought of this scenario

could the packs be used some how for the other gundams like get changed

i have a question did the titans use or make a gm body base and head unit with tank threads like a guntank .. i have seen a unit on one of the episode of zeta gundam my question is did it really exist or just animation error .?

Makes sense. Who would pay attention to a bland looking machine? They have limited time so they must pick the fancy-looking ones.

What if zaft will make their own striker pack. Remember they created the duel gundam’s customize armor. Also the reason why they cannot take down the arc angel even if they only have 1 gundam is because of the strike gundam’s versatility and adaptability. Except for the strike gundam each gundam has a weakness with the other gundam. So zaft will take advantage of this.

If we take into account that ZAFT did develop the ZGMF-X12A Testment that is full striker packs compatible without the strike, this might be bad for Earth Alliance as it may hasten the development of the ZAKU series or equivalent, in which may have push to end the war earlier in ZAFT's favor. Without the close combat data for the X100 type ( assuming Kira ended up with the buster, blitz or aegis), ZAFT might incur lesser loss on Battle of Port Panama, which result Earth Alliance might not able to take Victoria from ZAFT and limited the scope of battle on earth. Assuming if Kira ended up with the X200 or X300, and the development direction did change to develop them as mass production unit, Earth Alliance may ended up with lesser MS (although stronger) due to higher cost, which is in ZAFT's favor in a war of attrition.

Ok…. For starters, agreed with the fact that ZAFT got the Strike. However with the Duel and the Buster, they likely would’ve jury-rigged an upgrade for them to accept Striker Packs. And in the whole run of it, aside from the OPs, certain scenes and (if Kira got the Aegis) what Kira’s second unit would be, nothing major changes

I think ZAFT getting the strike would probally lead to early versions on the Zaku warrior and potentially pushing the war to continue for a longer period, even with its base data only having limited amounts of information on the packs they would have possibly been able to upgrade the Ginny's with minimal effort compared to trying to roll out higher costing mass production units and allowing for a larger force.

I would think that without the Mirage ability, the stay at Artemis(? Shielded base) would change the storyline greatly.

I like the idea of Kira in the Aegis and Athrun in the Strike. In my mind, it goes similar to canon, with the following differences: The fight between Kira and Athrun on the way to Artemis changes because Athrun can't capture Kira's machine. After all, Kira's got the machine with the grappling claws. This means when he runs out of Phase Shift, it's much easier for Kira to get away, and cover fire from Mu and the Archangel keeps Yzak from following. Things still proceed mostly as canon from there until the battle to reach the 8th Fleet, which is when Kira first awakens the SEED. Here is where I see a big change from canon. In this berserker state, intent only on protecting the Archangel, Kira could just grapple onto the Blitz, jet away from the Archangel to clear it from the blast radius, and just do a point-blank Scylla blast. RIP Nicol, and Kira doesn't even know his connection to Athrun yet. Yzak tries just charging Kira down for payback, and second verse just like the first, RIP Yzak. Dearka, at this point, has no other option but to retreat - He's all by himself, is likely running low on power, and if he tries going after the Aegis then he's next to die. Discretion being the better part of valor, I think Dearka retreats. At the 8th Fleet, the Archangel still gets Skygraspers, but without the Strike, these take a more dedicated role as support craft. I'd say one gets the Aile Striker and one gets the Launcher Striker, and they just stay like that at all times on ready status. As the battle of Orbit gears up, the Strike gets an Assault Shroud add-on and an experimental beam rifle. With Yzak and Nicol both dead, Athrun and Dearka are probably howling for revenge, with Athrun no longer hesitating even if Kira was once his friend. The battle between Aegis and Strike in orbit is likely similar to Strike vs Duel in canon, though it's a coin flip as to whether Athrun will try to shoot down the shuttle with the civilians or not. If he does, though, I think Kira would go SEED and pull the Scylla trick a third time. Athrun might be able to survive by purging the Assault Shroud, but he'd probably take heavy damage, and I don't know if the Strike could survive re-entry in that condition. Regardless, Kira might be able to reach the Archangel more easily this time, or even if he can't they don't need to go as far off-course to find him. Rather than ending up in Africa, I'd say the Archangel lands in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. At which point they can get moving more quickly, and reach a friendly port on the Eastern Seaboard of North America. From there, they can fly to Alaska pretty much directly. Flay still comforts/seduces Kira, and without Cagalli around she's able to sink her claws into him more easily. I would say that while Alaska command still looks unfavorably on Kira piloting the Aegis, they can overlook it as long as Flay can 'keep him pointed in the right direction.' To them, Kira is a weapon they can use, and Flay is the one with her hand on the trigger. To that end, she gets training to serve as his sole combat operator, or is given her own X-Number to support him more directly, once he comes up with a proper Natural-use OS. Not sure how things would go from there, but it would probably get much much bloodier.

Thought one of the issues with trying to mass produce the Aegis was the complexity of its transformable frame. Though maybe with sufficient data acquired through use the EF might have found a way to reduce the cost on it.

I don't know, have you done this one.... what if Kira and Athrun"s positions were switched, would it be simple and Athrun would just join ZAFT when Kira tells him he has no business with the Earth Alliance, especially because of his fathers position, (story basically over because of ZAFT's now overwhelming power with all 5 Gundam)... or would he do the teen thing and rebel against his father and all his anti naturals rhetoric (that he does later to join Kira), because remember though, to tell a story that doesn't end in just a couple of episodes, the creators would have to give a reason why Athrun starts the story away from the Plants, living and going to school in a neutral country's colony in the first place... Kinda makes you think how different it could have been in the Cosmic Era...

[Question of the Week] Can you discuss Gundams that cameo in other gundam series?? One example is the Rx-78-2, Wing, and F91 showing up in the final battle of G Gundam

Do you think that the duel can equip the striker pack? I mean it is the closest to the strike, especially if the strike go for assault shroud maybe the duel can be interchangeable with the striker packs

Maybe accounting the Blitz destruction (not in this senario), we might see Sven piloting the Blitz Noir in Stargazer😅

"The Aegis would become the mass-production unit." No, the Alliance would see the 303 Frame, decide it's too expensive, and then make a Dagger 303 that has a backpack it uses to transform into a flying crab thing with a Scylla. But once it transforms back to MS Mode, Scylla and crab legs have to be jettisoned, making it a one-time use thing per machine. It'll be called the ReGis

Yeah pretty interesting idea where it would change Earth Alliance army tactics, Dual gundam for very generalist tactics, blitz gundam data to favor hit and run tactics alongside with sabotage, aegis that expands on the idea of fighting with high speed tactics and every pilot were former MA pilots, and buster gundam for formation based firing lines.

A question for you that I hope there is some sort of answer to. Or at the very least, curious to your thoughts and speculation on the matter. We see Quess’ Jagd Doga repaired and refitted for use with the Sleeves in Gundam Unicorn. Are there other accounts of discarded ace pilot/notable machines being reused or repaired in other stories? Thanks!

Stealth Suits in Gundam are underated. The fact that the one timelime where MS can turn completely invisible made invisibility a warcrime speaks volumes to this

If Kira would get the Blitz, Kira would be like an assassins; ambushing the stealth capability, grappling and speed of the blitz

Assuming they didn't take any of the Strike's weapons packs or didn't know about them then he would've been facing either a machine with only daggers or a machine with a varient of the Assault Shroud or weapons taken from a Ginn. That would be interesting

very interesting indeed. hope we get a 3rd series in the seed universe

I think the Blitz would be terrible for Kira, it wouldn't suit him at all because he has a similar personality to Nicol. I can't remember once in GS or GSD where Kira is the aggressor and starts a battle. The Blitz Gundam is specialized for assassination and infiltration, Kira is more of a mid-ranged defender, the first time it uses Mirage Colloid the other four Gundams are gonna focus fire on the his allies. Great video though thanks Kakarot197!
