why is it stupid? its a pistol sword, Crossbone gundams have that. Akatsuki has bayonet feature on its gun that's not stupid.
Not only that this gun is for the Astray Noir which is just like the Strike Noir, they had to make put something interesting on it so its not just a copy and past. Personally its kinda cool, i'll have to wait and see how the Suit will use it but as of now cool something different never hurt anybody.

My issue with it is that they practically slapped together the Noir pistols with two Katana blades
They could have done a way better job of integrating them together, or finding a way to make everything still work separately I also find the lack of a hand gaurd not to my liking at all (and no, the gun part does not serve that purpose) Bayonets work on guns since they are mounted straight under the gun, as such, they are not offset, nor are they protruding to either side Not too sure which Crossbone weapon you are referring to, as I am not that familiar with the series, but from what weapons I have seen from the model kits, they all tend to be streamlined weapons (while some have multipurpose, they are not slapped onto each other) Though I will admit from a plot perspective it probably works, as we have seen the Astray pilots are quite resourceful, making use of whatever they can get their hands on Last edited by Skye629; 2013-06-10 at 01:07. |

I simply do not like weapons which look like you took one, then duct taped it to another (in this case a connector sitting off to the sides) And I called it stupid as that was my opinion of it |

It's just trying to cash in on the Astray Red Frame's popularity, with that bloody sword it has. The usual excuse is still in effect, I imagine--power constraints, so it won't use its beam blade weaponry (making their inclusion kind of pointless). Can't say that it doesn't look stupid as hell, though. If they're fielding the aforementioned excuse, better off turning the Noir Striker's swords into full metal blades rather than beam swords.
But nooo, gotta use a stupid katana/gun gimmick... *sighs*

Does anyone think this HD remaster of Destiny will go a bit farther and explain on how Mwu survived or at least show it better?
also when are we going to get some really Remaster moments in this HD series any good episode guesses? so far the only big scenes i remember is the Heine introduction and in episode 1 with Gaia killing a suit and the Zaku with gold particles coming out when turned on, which has happened since.

They might add some more silent flashbacks but that's it (remember they can't add any new dialogue).
Otherwise I expect alot of the stock footagy battles to get alot of new animation (especially once Freedom shows up), and maybe Destiny Impulse to get added into a battle or two. Maybe a few cameos from Stargazer. Maybe Athrun will have some better fight scenes in Savior. It depends how far they're willing to go. Any significant changes are them essentially saying "we screwed up back in 2005" so I wouldn't count of any of that. |

now i doubt we'll be getting Destiny Impulse animations cause how could they put that in without looking really out of place in story i doubt they can give it to Luna. Stargazer would be cool but we really would only get 3 or 4 at the most. Athrun being cool in the Saviour would be nice but doubtful. i don't remember athrun doing anything important in that suit Quote:

well why not dialog? why would they tell us about remixed songs? most of those were in the movie completion or games so its nothing new. A new sound track? hmm could be interesting like a new TM Revolution single, but I don't see how a new song would be cheaper/easier to use than getting new dialog. they are already touching up scenes and whole new animations.
Getting the actors in can't be that hard or expensive they got in Tomokazu Seki, Kotono Mitsuishi and Soichiro Hoshi to go do a new Omake thing for the Blu Ray release of the Destiny HD. (http://en.gundam.info/topics/white_m...l&cat=&bigcat= ) I think only voice actor that would be tough to get in would be Naomi Shindō, she has been Cagalli in some recent games like Gundam Seed: Battle Destiny for vita and SD G Generations Overworld. For Chiaki Morosawa omake i doubt it, but for the main series umm i don't know.... depends

In terms of new dialog/audio, no. In terms of new Animated scenes, yes.
In context to what they do in the episodes and what episodes their in... I would say: Freedom/Impulse/Destiny/Strike Freedom, of the most likely to get newly animated scenes. |

Did they ever explain how Prayer and Matias Adukurf were related in VS Astray? Because Prayer wears his coat and has a picture of him and his younger self.

As for Savior, well they can at least make it use less of the constant transforming stock footage, maybe have Athrun actually cause some minor damage to Sting instead of just chasing him around. |
