Instead of chastising you...I'll explain.
More or less, Duel and Buster were tossed to the side or dismantled for parts. The current mobile suits of the era are superior to the original five Gundams. The only thing the Gundams had over the current ones are their imperviousness to physical damage (bullets, swords, etc.). Other than that, Yzak's uber ZAKU is better than his Duel. And considering Buster was just a big gun and heavy armor, Deakka's ZAKU with big gun is better than his Buster. So, yeah, that's generally what happened to them. ZAKU POWA! lol |

well in a realistic point of view, kamiya's answer hits the spot, but in the Gundam answer:
1) Buster and Duel were the essentially the prototypes of future Gundams. Now since Freedom and Justice which came after Buster and Duel is obsolete, there is no reason for them to repair and use Buster and Duel when they got better mobile suits. 2) If you think about it, Buster and Duel were pretty busted up. Sure Freedom LOOKED more busted but do we really know anything about the mechanis of mobile suits? Perhaps Buster and DUel were permanently damaged in a critical spot. All in all we still don't know if Buster and DUel will never come back or not, only time will tell. |

But Duel was the weakest, it was the prototype and the Zaku Phantom Yzak has now is much better. Duel might be on display in a Zaft Museum |

On top of all that, could you possibly see Cagalli jumping into a mobile suit and fighting again? I sure don't. |

I don't disagree that should be hopping into her Gundam and going out to kick some ass in order to save herself from...well...sucking. But I, personally, don't see it happening. I think she's gonna go the way of the dodo...but maybe she'll go out decently and will be in her Gundam at the time. Then again, having her die helplessly could effect Kira/Athrun/Shinn to do any sorts of things. But either way, this isn't a thread to discuss Cagalli's fate.
So, yeah, Buster and Duel are scrap, lol. |
