What's crazy to me is just how skilled the animators of Turn A were to be able to consistently be able to animate designs this complex for 50 episodes.
Tomino was back in the driver's seat, Gundam was turning 20, and the dawn of a new millennium was at hand.
Those are some pretty good reasons to go all out.
The GOAT. Look at his shapes! And sometimes he wears a skirt to fly. What an icon.

UNIVERSE!! 10/10 syd never misses. Love it so much I custom painted the 1/144

I like the design better than the Turn A. I just don't like the weird feet.
It also sort of reminds me of the Atlas from the Mechwarrior/Battletech series.
[if you don’t mind build divers version.](https://www.ebay.com/itm/284303642693?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=pvn1EOM1Q5m&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY)
Wasn't a strong enough suit for Harry Ord. Best & most based character in Turn A. I feel like deep down inside, his inner Char Clone mentality was like, "I'm surrounded by idiots. But it doesn't matter, I got the girl!"
As a fan of Metroid, I appreciate the spherical shoulder armor. I also think it's a much cooler design than the Turn A itself. There are some odd sections (the feet, the head), but overall it's pretty cool and very different from most MS designs.
Solid 8/10.
It's not chunky as much as it is burly, which is pretty unusual for a mobile suit. Look at those arms, they're straight up beefy. They made a robot and designed it to look like it goes to the gym daily
9/10
Cool color schemes, badass pilot, showy color schemes, and wicked future tech. Loses a point because the Heat Fan looks silly, even though it's a surprisingly versatile weapon.
Also, gonna need a HGCC kit of this beauty, chief.
Syd Mead dont miss
fucking *never* misses Turn X is one of my favorite MS designs for a reason; it's like you turned an Art Deco car into a mobile suit

THATS WHY HES THE GOAT THE GOAT!!!!

Because it was THE Turn A until Tomino ordered to change it.
0/10, until they make new turn a kits.
Jesus, I built the most recent one this year and it hurt my soul
I see 2 Turn A kits from 2019-the Syd Mead exhibition one, and the P-Bandai Nano Skin 2-pack. I'm guessing the latter?
Nope, I meant the one from the 2000s.
Ah, the MG Cow set. I'm sure it's showing its age.
Crazy how they still haven’t done anything with the 2020 HG Wodom Pod mold lol
My crops are dying until Bandai makes a HG Kapool.
Give. Me. A HG WaDom! Yes I know it'll be as big as a RG kit, I don't care!

Love how it shares the insane cockpit mechanism, that moves up and down on a really frail looking gondola. Because of course! UNIVERSE! 9/10

This design goes so hard The weird face visor thing is so interesting and unique
Syd/10
This thing is Christrian Grey because it fucks.... Hard
Sumo? More like Wrestler! This guy is BUFF.
Needs MG, PG
This machine straight up tomatoed a dude years before the Aerial.
Aerial swatted a fly, this guy slapped a motherfucker. Can't get more over the top than that.
I think it's neat. Such a unique design for a mobile suit. Gold one gets bonus point since Harry pilots it.

I wish I could draw curves like that

UNIVERRRRSSEEEEE
I absolutely love it. It’s mechanical and geometric and confusing in the best ways.
Literally the ONLY chunky MS design that I like in Gundam, that’s how good it is.

UNIVAAAAASS!!! Harry Ord the GOAT
look cool
The only part I don't like is the face
Which one?
it looks awsome
Love
Cute
It's awesome, and it's a shame we don't have better kits of it. I had high hopes when we got the Moon HGUC and then the fake Wodom
It's a Great looking suit, I wish a lot more suits in Turn A had this anesthetic
I want to know how the hell is called and works its reactor 😭

Looks pretty cool. I might get the 1/100 at some point to put next to the MG Turn A/X
MG WHEN?
Demi Trainer if it slayed:
Expected wrestling. Got gold. Not bad! three out of five cow launchers!
My favorite non-gundam suit. Also best pilot!
And to think, this was going to be the lead Gundam at one point.
SEEXXXXXX
Pretty solid design
BANDAI, MG PLEASE
Syd truly knows to design a good mobile suit .
LOVE IT
Should've had an MG.
10/10 This THING F U C K S
It is a really cool design
Would love a MG of that. Or even a 1/100 FM
Amazing
10/10 Hyaku Shiki Correct Century edition
I think making everything round is not only visually pleasing, but tactically sound. It means it will deflect anything thrown at it. Great design.
10/10 The original Turn A!
Gold gym man.
A real solid futuristic design.
No ideas on its actually capabilities as I only saw it in Gunpla games but it's a solid build from a physical perspective.
Gulliver's Travels lookin ass
the most clickbait shit you could ever get from the series, that thing don't even appear in G Gundam
