thank you.

also, there's one thing I don't get about Mobile Armors: How come the folks who do the Gundam series make the Mobile Armors bigger than Mobile Suits?

plus, the MAN-08 Elmeth, Apsalus II, MA-05 Bigro, MAN-03 Braw Bro, and MAX-03 Adzam are my personal favorite Mobile Armors, because they're powerful and look so dang cool! it's also because the Apsalus II has the head of a Zaku II, which is cool!

Gundam Seed is terrible. In fact I'd go so far as to say all series after G Fighter suck.

Hmm.. Surprised you left out the Psyco Gundam. Nothing says "cool" like a giant floating block-thing.

I dunno. I'm pretty sure it counts as a Mobile Armor.

Knowledge in the Gundam series is somewhat scarce in 747K. Also, proof is proof, but remember, you can't always be right.

forgive me, I assumed that the Psyco Gundam was just a supersized transformable Mobile Suit.

Image MRX-010 Psyco Gundam Mk. II

Image MRX-012 Psyco Gundam Mk. III

I guess it's safe to say that not all Mobile Armors have to be non-humanoid.

Image say guys, are these brain-like things seen in the cutaway pictures of the Braw Bro and Elmeth supposed to be their Psycommu Systems? Just curious.

EDIT: found a new MA

Image this is the MAN-00X-2 NT Zakrello, a variation of the original failed prototype MA-04X combining both the Flanagan Institute's Braw Bro and MIP's Zakrello

Overall, the standard trend for MAs is, with my level of understanding, generally less of an actual "suit" resembling humanoids, although if we take into account Psyco, it seems the difference is more along the lines of whether they're a Heavily Armored Siege Engine or a faster, more mobile sort of cavalry unit, jeep, what have you. I don't know much about the more technical aspects of the Psyco, though, so I tend to ignore him, as that makes the distinction more of whether it's humanoid like or more of a vehicle. MAs tend to also be packed with more firepower than your standard MS, although it's restricting in what it can mount, while a large majority of MSs can simply exchange weapons.

I digress, though, as my technical knowledge of the Gundam series has dwindled for a long while, as I only recently started checking info and watching series of it just recently. That being said, my favorite MA depends on what we're classifying as my favorite. The most battle effective? The most appealing to the eye? Its standard pilot? With all that in mind, it's definitely the Zakrello. Best MA ever. Nothing could possibly beat it at all. Best MA ever. Yup.
Area to remain blank until I stop procrastinating.

I'm not as studied in mobile armor as I ought to be, but I like all the really fighter-looking ones. Probably just because I'm just a really big fighter geek.
