In function it's like the GN Defense Rod but in design the shield that it's using for the emitter reminds me alot Garazzo GN Shield/Field generator.

Really wish they wouldn't beat around bush, and just show the purple particle blasts, and nothing else.

Now now Nosferatu we got over 5 months till the movie premiere and they ain't going show us all the good stuff right away or before the movie.

Hey...you're right. Not sure if I like that or not...

[Rising Dragon]

Actually to me it looks like its using a pair of shields, not actual binders like the 00-Raiser.

I wish it should be a full version of these soon.

PS - Not quite a mecha fan to me, really.

Wow I miss soooooooooooo much

genius idea for the Sniper Bits, Pretty much took the previous concept from 00Q and apply it here. Nice save.

OMG a GN-X IV has a 0 Rasier attachment........ *Mind Blown*

In the trailer the way those blues beams are popping up looks like there firing from a Starships rather than fighter MSes.

Looks like this is going to be pretty sweet.......

Did someone say Blue GNP

Hope you're right. To be honest, I still can't really tell just exactly what the fuck is going on in that giant battle scene.

There's a GN-XIV definitely, and some Flags flying around, and explosions. But that's call I can make out.

They could've managed to get more data on the GN-Tau drive and how they could be created smaller. Who knows, maybe the new GN-X 4s might have two Tau Drives instead of one so it could be stupidly fast while still having particles for other things.

just my speculation.

[GN0010 Nosferatu]

Ya know what the weird thing is? I'm not seeing the O Raiser-like binders anywhere on the GNX-IV in the photo where they're escorting the new MA. No where at all.

[Rising Dragon]

Probably because the binders aren't binders, but shields. Just the size and positioning make them appear to be wing binders.

[GN0010 Nosferatu]

Well that's what I'm saying, they're shields on the shoulders, and I'm curious as to why it would have two extra. When it has one on the right arm, as this picture seems to show.

Yeah thats what Im interested in myself. Even their GN fields are impressive. I am surprise that they want to get Harute and Zabanya weapons scene out of the way in the promo.

First thing that comes to mind for me is Ribbons. The hair looks like Lindt but he's human, unpopular human character to boot, which means no chance of resurrection. Innovades though...

The structure looks like the base of an orbital elevator:

A thought just occured to me. Has a robot uprising ever taken place before in the gundam franchise? The way I see it VEDA is more likely to initiate some final phase of a plan where humans will have to unite and stop an all reaching A.I. with quantum processors than aliens invading to prepare for the coming dialogues. They might be pushing this "coming dialogues" on us to make us expect aliens when there's already material for an A.I. uprising prepared. Innovades can be remotely controlled by VEDA, they're hiding in society and VEDA could easily hide the production of secret suits. It might even have something to do with Fon Spark's attempt to create his own VEDA.

[GN0010 Nosferatu]

That couldn't happen since VEDA is not entirely a sentient A.I. It can be manipulated and controlled, so long as someone is continuing the Aeolia plan, which is what the ESF is doing. So I don't think VEDA becoming Skynet for Gundam would work.

I'd much prefer aliens.

Actually it does seem to have some sentience to it. Ribbons wasn't able to fully control VEDA which means there's more to it than being just a super-powerful computer. Think about it, VEDA's been giving the orders for decades deciding who should do what to get the results needed. Who's to say that the final phase of the plan won't involve that kind of event.

Yeah i guess they are shields looking at your image. Another interesting thing about the shields is that its edges seem to be glowing orange which u can see on the image below. I wonder if those are condensor blades or GN field generators on the shields

[GN0010 Nosferatu]

As I said before, they're no wear to be seen in this image: http://i.imagehost.org/0156/gnx2.jpg

Perhaps it's especially equipment for aces or something?

[GundamMeisterLockon]

I think the GNX IV in the recent trailer really stole the show from the other gundams for me, with its sexy green paint job and its awesome gear.

I would agree with you on the specialist equipment for aces , i doubt they would hand out gear like that to anybody other then aces.

Prototype Twin Drive System GN-X piloted by Descartes before he gets the MA.

New enemies call for new weapons.

I was thinking that Veda could have sent an encrypted message of some sort, bypassing Tieria's surveilliance, to the "Aliens". The message might have antagonize them of some sort, prompting them to embark towards Earth and invading our planet.

If that is the case, then the world would indeed have to speed up its progress, as dictated by the Plan. Veda could have explored the feasibility of its grand finale to Aeolia's Plan, and did so. If it allowed Ribbons to down the Orbital Elevator, then sacrificing the lives of humans is something it wouldn't shun from doing.

Perhaps, the genuine Innovators even received some sort of an order from Veda, to continue to help their respective factions against the invading "Aliens" instead of participating in dialogues, which was the ultimate objective of Aeolia's Plan. As for genuine Innovators like Descartes, they might comply, since they didn't have the experiences and memories that Setsuna had.

On the other hand, Setsuna said that "he didn't understand it". Perhaps that is a response to Veda's orders. Subsequently, with Celestial Being, he would fight and at the same time, seek a peaceful resolution with the "Aliens" by communicating with them through QBW, which I assume they could do too.

Sounds wonderfully stupid, just crap talk of mine.
