whoo goods news looks like the CE isn't over yet...

brightman · 2007-09-11, 20:27

Hmm... Does that mean that the Seed movie will be named "Gundam SEED FRAME"?

Or is the Astray series after this one going to be named after the movie instead...?

LightningZERO · 2007-09-11, 20:29

Shouldn't they make Gundam 00 side story instead?

dodgethis_sg · 2007-09-11, 20:30

It had better not displace my SRW:OG and Busou Shinki mangas.

The serialized manga is drawn by Koichi Tokita with scenario by Tomohiro Chiba (same as the previous Astray manga). It takes place during CE73 in East Asia.

Characters/Faction
- Gai Murakumo and Serprent Tail
- Trojan Noiret and Bali Ho : Nicknamed the "Fireball of the Jungle", Trojan is a guerrilla soldier while Bali Ho is a former Orb ace pilot.
- 3 Socius - soldier coordinator created by Earth Alliance. Genetically engineered to obey naturals. Earth Alliance created many of them and destroyed majority of them. He is one of the few remaining survivors.

MS
- CAT1-XG1/12 Hyperion G - mass production variation of Hyperion Gundam. This is a custom version for Socius.
- CAT1-XG2/12 Hyperion G - custom version for Gai Murakamo. It is painted dark blue.
- MBF-P04 Astray Green Frame - The 4th unit of the prototype Astray developed by Orb. Former Orb pilot Bali gave it to Trojan. It is unknown how Bali obtained the 4th unit.

"Bali Ho" probably means "Barry Ho", if anybody is wondering.

Not that random, considering that the original Astray series was planned with five Astrays: Red, Blue, Gold, Green, and Grey.

Archer · 2007-10-25, 17:34

And the official site updated, with plenty of new stuff to go around!

Story:
Takes place during Destiny, in the Asian bloc. There's a three way battle between the ZAFT, Earth Alliance, and local guerrilla forces in the area. The Earth Alliance decides to hire the well-known mercenary group, the Serpent Tail, to help them in this battle, while Barry Ho, a former Orb ace, brings in the Green Frame to assist the guerrilla forces. The story starts on from there.

Hyperion-G

Alec's Kerberos BuCUE Hound

Green Frame

Gai Murakumo's new outfit

It seems that Elijah also wears the same uniform

There's a lot more stuff in the Astrays site listed above, so go check it out if you're interested.

Fafnir · 2007-10-25, 22:57

Astray was always better then the actual series...

But... what happened to the Blue Frame? I know I missed alot, skipping X Astray, Destiny Astray, and Delta Astray...

Honey_and_Cleaver · 2007-10-28, 08:52

Perhaps the meaning of existence lies within their will to fight. People feel a sense of accomplishment through battle. And it’s also a fact that the ones actually fighting are never perceived as being tainted.
