[.ca] Mobile Fighter Gundam Collector's Box 1 (Full Screen) [3 ...

a very unusual gundam but still very good:
g gundam or mobile fighter g gundam is probably one of the most unlikely series you would have expected to come out on dvd but it did and many people are glad. this series is probably one of the most fun series to watch to come to dvd it is just so cool every thing about the series it done with a sense of stylization that is hard not to like of many gundam fans will say it is stupid and ok so it is not as realistic as other gundam series but for crying out loud it is about super strong humans fighting in giant robots so it is no sopossed to look realistic so all gryping aside it is still a very good series that should be checked out by any one who likes mecha anime gundam anime or dbz style anime

Waste of money...:
I know the title of this review seems like im just insulting the show in general. But, I'm not. This is a waste of money because i bought the entire series (all 49 episodes) in an entire dvd set BRAND NEW on ebay from a guy named lilyswaterfall for $35. He seems to have many for sale. And even if he has none there are others with the same item for sale. Okay the features of this set are... Original Japanese/English Audio (English dubs the same as cartoon networks) English Subtitles Beatiful Display case showing off the 6 dvd set. All 49 episodes uncut. Do yourself or the person your buying this for a favor and buy the entire set instead of this on ebay BRAND NEW! i received mine its in perfect condition with everything i wanted. Its the entire set for less than one of these box sets. Hope i helped.

Sore de wa GUNDAM FIGHT! Ready? GO!:
So, G Gundam has made it's way to US shores. For those of you who are wondering if it's worth investing in, then my answer is a loud YES! If you have an open mind you'll likely love this series as I do. Don't listen to all the reviewers who call it an insult to Gundam or Gundam Ball Z, because they're very wrong. G Gundam is more of a tribute to the super robot shows that spawned Gundam in the late 70's. There are no DBZ-esque drawn out scenes or people who can destroy a planet with their thumb. Instead we get to-the-point battles, along with a great plot and great characters. Unlike Wing, the cast are more like their UC ancestors as they change and grow. The character of Domon, who mainly shows anger in these first 12 episodes, goes through alot of emotional events. You understand and feel for him as he goes through various trials. The same can be said for the rest of the cast who are equally develloped through the course of this 49 episode series. Fans such as myself who were upset with the renames for the dub get some consolation in the fact that Bandai retains the original names in the subtitles. However, it would of been nice to hear the dub cast refer to such Gundams as Tequilla (renamed Spike) and Lumber (renamed Grizzly) by their original names. Other then trailers, the only real extra is parts of an interview with the show's director, Imagawa, which reveal what inspired certain episodes and answer certain unanswered questions. Nice as these are, I hope Bandai manage to include textless versions of the 3 openings and 2 closings at some point. As I said earlier, buy this if you have an open mind. It's a great little series and an interesting break from the constant "Earth vs Spacenoids" conflicts of all the other Gundam shows

Some ups and downs:
Well, as I watched these episodes I had some Up's and some Down's about them. I mean I like the characters,story line and everything but it really didn't get me soo interested at first. I thought that they could have made it a little more better. I mean there is some really funny parts. I did like that episode where Sai Saici fights Argo. I mean Domon... well this is from the subtitled one. So i won't give out that info. In all it's good, but I would sat you would want the newst one, rounds 4 and 6.

Gundam?:
This is called Gundam, but it's not Gundam at all and it's the worst Gundam series ever, the biggest miatake. This series is just for kids. If you're expecting something like the first Gundam, or other Universal century Gundam series, you'd be very disappointed with this childish animation. This is created for selling their toys to kids, doesn't even have a realistic story line that the first Gundam has. About 20 years ago, the creater of Gundam wanted to make a totally different animation series, which wasn't exactly for kids, but rather for mature audiences by giving it a believable future wars of human based on science and also made a great story line , instead of making 'good guy always wins' kind of story. But looks like the creaters just forgot their first purpose of making Gundam. This animation just doesn't have the heart of Gundam series, which makes Gundam series stand out from all other robots animation. Again, this is created only for making money by using the name of Gundam. Even Gundam looking robots are not Gundam or mobile suits. Don't be fooled by its name, it's not Gundam you want to see. Maybe a good choice for kids under 10 years old.
