I don't see any funnels on there. Looks interesting, though, the wings have shrunk down, and I love the shields. Probably as a defense against the Dods Rifle, currently they get OHKO'ed. No idea why, but I'm really liking the Dorado. My fav UE suit for now.

Gundam AGE is that portable egg of a factory, supercomputer, and artificial intelligence... not the actual mecha.
Gundam AGE is a BOX! Actually, that big metal egg with the console. The individual Gundams can be obliterated, the factory will just build another one piece by piece, learning from its mistakes. |

Genoace II name fits IMO, its more of an update than anything and its likely something you can turn all the Genoaces into (much like the GN-Xs from 00, all of them can be upgraded into the next generation and has similar design structures). The Adele seems to be of a different design (its designed by Ebikawa for one rather than Teraoka) and has a different build/figure and more closely resemble the AGE-1 is structure than the more larger Genoace. They can call it the Genoace II if they wanted but its going to have far less connections to the predecessor and be a seperate machine. If you look at it in a certain way, the unique Custom may be considered a "prototype" of the II of sorts and the new beam rifle might be the new technological step up that can make it vastly superior to its predecessor. That being said, I don't think the II's color scheme help give that element of "newness" to the lineage. I say its all about branding, which can be a rather subjective field. The Adele is a "new" mass production model likely derived from the AGE-1 so a "new" name is not unfitting while the Genoace II for all intents and purposes is an updated Genoace so keeping the Genoace name makes sense. If what I said about the Genoace II suit being upgradable as a kit from the Genoace while the Adele are built from the groundup are true, the current name makes even more sense as it also shows a functional separation between the two models. I am sort of liking how it might now seem everything effective in damaging the UE seems to be derived from the AGE-1 (G-Exes, and likely the Adele and the Genoace II as well because of their rifle designs). I just wish they'd release us more mechanical details of the AGE-1. Maybe the DODS Rifle could just indeed be the most definitive piece of beam technology developed that helped in the fight against the UE, as it appears like the Adele and the II seems to be using a gun of a similar design while the G-Exes is currently doing the same (with the spiral effect to boot).

You mean the "purple mobile suit" that shows up towards the final episodes? It may very well be the Dorado, whose existence is explainable as the unit created in response to the improved capabilities of the Diva mobile suit squad.
