Mechanista in G – NCC-1701 USS Enterprise (Part 3)

It's fun to discover whole worlds you previously knew nothing of. The listener whose request we rolled this week made the request a few years ago at this point, and sent along some art of the cards they were interested in. And I was like, "oh, there are a decent number of these, huh?" Friends, I had no idea. Once we looked into the topic... wow. This card game has a lot of robots in it. And a lot of them are from names we know and love.... You can find a video version of this podcast for free on Scanline Media’s Patreon!

I should dial back the Gundam AGE hate. Even its titular Gundam line has a few winners, and the AGE Gundams are the worst designs in the series. The other mobile suits, there are some clear winners! I'd count the G-Bouncer among their number. And it's not fair to hold the writing against them. ...Mostly. I'm sorry, the Freedom DOES have to suffer for the crime of the Rainbow Beams of Peace.

It's time for Peche & Pals! The UC Engage art style is often a bit off-putting to us, but we're always here for tinkering with existing designs to make new ones. Riffing on designs is one of the great joys of being a mecha fan, if you ask me. But how wild to go is always a question you've gotta keep in mind. These machines? Not too wild.

Shuttles, shuttles, shuttles. Oh, sure, we do some cleanup, and some Kelvinverse designs, but mostly this episode is dedicated to little boxes for like two to twenty people. It's a bit of a break to our format, because we usually don't give machines with the same design new entries just because they have a new name. But c'mon, live a little.

C'mon. He's just a little mecha! Also it's his birthday, he's a little birthday mecha! The Stuka/Goblin fills a niche I didn't realize I needed: short, chunky mobile suit. What IF a Zaku only came up to the Gundam's chest? What IF you could barely see their legs from all that waist skirt? Kazuhisa Kondo remains an underappreciated genius of Gundam design.

We're back with a little help from our friends! Guidance has been issued, and we know how to proceed. And Dylan's happy, because we're just talking about Star Trek stuff this episode instead of a bunch of boats! They've got no appreciation for the ocean, I swear. I'm always saying this.

Space. The bar on your keyboard. This is an episode of the podcast Mechanista in G. Its continuing mission gets more and more unclear with each episode. And this goof has outlived its usefulness. Join us for part 1 of our discussion of the USS Enterprise. And the HMS Enterprise. And L'Enterprise. And the Space Shutt- I'm uploading this episode two days early with the hopes that we can get some advice as to how to proceed with part 2 before we recording it on Wednesday the 22nd!

Sometimes even Gundam Crossbone has good ideas. And they may not be good ideas leading up to them, or even following them. But for one shining moment, you get a cartridge-powered pile bunker leg driving a massive beam saber down, and everything is ok. ...Ok, that's unfair to the F89, that thing's fine. But boy. Anchor V2, V3, V4... it definitely goes downhill. Lighting can strike twice.

I guess I would describe the Radiant Wave Surger as having both "the power" and "the touch." And it certainly gets "ready for battle." But can it "beat the Black Knight" if it itself IS a Black Knight? Y'know, stupid question. On two fronts. First of all, of course a person can always defeat themselves. Second, why am I doing an extended bit about the theme of the pinball machine Black Knight 2000? You can find a video version of this podcast for free on Scanline Media’s Patreon!

Now, listen. It would not be entirely unfair to call me a weeb. I don't like the term, but y'know, lord knows I enjoy plenty of Japanese media. But that's kinda it, right? And Japanese food, that's good too. But I'm not out here obsessing over the code of bushido like SOME Americans. I wouldn't want to name names. It could be ANYONE under Mr. Bushido's mask. I can't be sure. But I suspect that some BLOND AMERICAN MEN have a lot to be ashamed of. You can find a video version of this podcast for free on Scanline Media’s Patreon!
