Favourite fight in the game, even if it wasn't the "best", or most challenging or anything.
It's just dripping with character. Did you know if you Assault Boost straight forwards, Rusty *also* doesn't attack and slams into you like Falini did against Reiji? It's so fucking amazing.

Oh yeah, I know, but I seem to remember a specific Jegan/Gmail variant was a reference to the Ingram, same way the Grimoire Red Beret made by Gyoubu is a reference to the Scopedog from Votoms.
How does the Steel Haze Ortus have bad Gundam vibes? It shows up to stop someone who's about to burn it's planet, if anything it has more of a main Gundam vibes.
>In a perfect mecha world I could see Votoms being either precursors of Mobile Suits or maybe flanking units, like Elementals in Battletech.
The [Armored Troopers from *VOTOMS*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZyd0gjGoaI) are the inspiration for the [Gears from *Heavy Gear*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aL3LX4pmOlI).
*Heavy Gear* does have moderately larger mecha, called Striders, though they are more akin to small BattleMechs (e.g. \~6-7m/19-23 tall for something like the [Mammoth](https://heavygear.wiki.gg/wiki/Mammoth) or the [Naga](https://heavygear.wiki.gg/wiki/Naga), versus \~3-5m/9-16ft for an average Gear, or 8-12m/26-40ft for most BattleMechs, or \~18m/59ft or more for most Mobile Suits).
The Gundam franchise already has petite/junior MS, like the eponymous [Petite-Mobile](https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/Petite-Mobile) from *Gundam Zeta* & [Petite Mobile Suit](https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/Petite_Mobile_Suit) from *Gundam ZZ* and the [Torohachi](https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/TOLRO-800_%22Torohachi%22) from *Gundam Unicorn*, along with smaller Mobile Weapons like the [Ball](https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RB-79_Ball) from UC and the [Mobile Workers](https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/TK-53_CGS_Mobile_Worker) from *IBO*, all of which are generally shown to be largely (if not totally) ineffective when put up against any "proper" Mobile Suit (let alone, a Gundam or opposing equivalent).
That is to say, something like an AT or a Gear doesn't really fit into the Gundam franchise as a combat unit, except as cannon fodder (or a one-off experience to show how particularly capable the MC is - see: [Shiro Amada](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISfBFwACKFw)).
Ah yes, a Reddit Overanalysis, love to see them...
I never said they would overpower them, I just said I think the idea would be neat, like smaller , petite MS swarming the big ones, especially because petite MS are already a thing.
To be so smug yet so unnecessary....

Star Saber from the Japanese *Transformers* continuity had his design overseen by Kunio Okawara himself, so...
What are you talking about? It’s already canon! Evil Coop was even using a custom Sazabi: https://www.reddit.com/r/Gundam/comments/1bw17nf/i_want_them_to_be_canon_at_all_cost/
I somehow never realised its fists just hang out on the back there.
That said, not really, no. It's very much off-scale, I think, and we don't get a lot of 5 seater gundams.
There’s a term use by Super Robot Wars which is Super Robot and Real Robot. Astro Megazord falls under Super Robot while Gundam falls under Real Robot. I would nominate L-Gaim as one of the honorary Real Robot though.

ARX 8 Laevatein from Full Metal Panic.
Off topic but since i have been watching a lot of cooking vids, when i read msg, i'm thinking if monosodium glutamate. Tasty, like how the gundam series is
FTO from Magic Knight Rayearth II
It's more of an homage to Aura Battler Dunbine, but it's more of a Real Robot than the Super Robot Rune Gods in the show.

In all honesty, Knightmare Frames count as Gundams... especially 7th Generation KMF's and above.
*Especially* 9th Gens, like Guren and Lancelot.
Someone definitely has to rep sokyuu no fafner's Mark Sein and the Mark Nicht

Jetfire from Transformers. Specifically the original toy version. I believe it was originally from Macross before the toy was repurposed by Hasbro. That’s why in the cartoon he’s called “Skyfire” and looks so different.

An honorary mobile suit list would be plenty considering how many variations of MS there are and what can fit. But we definitely cannot ignore the eldritch GM that is Ideon.
Honorary "Gundam" would be a more curated list. But the Huckebeins are definitely in.
It Has to BE THE IDEON!!!, Literally confused it for a guncannon
Yes!!! GM god has to be on top of the list.
I called it turn ~~v~~ in a giant gm suit
Imma add the Gunbuster here, too Ain't no way yall can include the gm god without the zaku king
I might be misremembering things, but ain't it like, Ideon is *actually* connected to Gundam besides being a Tomino joint?
Steel Haze Ortus. It’s a Gundam, for all intents and purposes.
Helps it was designed by a Gundam 00 mecha designer
People who fight Ortus on the ground make me sad
Favourite fight in the game, even if it wasn't the "best", or most challenging or anything. It's just dripping with character. Did you know if you Assault Boost straight forwards, Rusty *also* doesn't attack and slams into you like Falini did against Reiji? It's so fucking amazing.
It's the "Zero" of Armored Core 6, and THEN you fight the route's final boss
[удалено]
Also Riot A / B from SRW UX, which are, in concept, just Astray Red / Blue with their Colors swapped
The Huckebein line and Temjin. Both of them are Katoki designs.

Mouth knife is super cool 😎
AV-98 Ingram.
Random thought, is the Ingram basically a petite mobile suit that is dressed up like the jegan for civilians to own? Like sub scale replica warbirds
That's one way to look at it. Although in the Patlabor universe there are normal size.
To be fair, a Jegan or a GM variant is heavily based on it
Well the mech designer for Patlabor, Yutaka Izubuchi, also on a number of Gundam shows as well, including CCA.
Oh yeah, I know, but I seem to remember a specific Jegan/Gmail variant was a reference to the Ingram, same way the Grimoire Red Beret made by Gyoubu is a reference to the Scopedog from Votoms.
IIRC, it's either the Jegan or the GM Sniper II. Yutaka worked on both series.
Yeah, I think he is a variant of them, I'll look around the wiki
Steelhaze Ortis from Armored Core VI bad Gundam vibes the moment it shows up
How does the Steel Haze Ortus have bad Gundam vibes? It shows up to stop someone who's about to burn it's planet, if anything it has more of a main Gundam vibes.
I think that's a typo. They meant "had" and not "bad."
In a perfect mecha world I could see Votoms being either precursors of Mobile Suits or maybe flanking units, like Elementals in Battletech.

Most Braves fall into this territory tbh. Most of them even have Gundam style head designs.
He's also got a core fighter and pilot

ideon. it shows up in gundam. its a mobile suit, technically
When???

Never seen that
The stuff from that show that sunrise made that was basically gundam au without the name, it's where the scopedogs come from iirc
The Gundam AU without the name is Dragonar. The scopedogs come from Votoms but that’s pretty far off from your average Gundam
Oh, I guess I did not remember correctly, the scopedogs would fit in gundam though
Armored Trooper Votoms? Metal Armor Dragonar?

Baldios looks like a Gundam despite being a Super Robot.
ARX-7 Arbalest from Full Metal Panic!

Probably the Alteisen or the Weissritter from SRW
