ok so i learned something about gundam today: the bad guys' mechs are infinitely cooler than the good guys'

@tom zeon manufactures lots of specialised mechs but the federation just gives different clothes to the same one over and over

@tom more than half of mass produced mobile suits have a monoeye, it's just that almost everything manufactured for zeon has a really pronounced one

@tom only gundams and federation higher end federation GMs have 2+ eyes

@kyra screw 2 eyes, the mono eye is such a good design choice

Follow

@tom gundam is such a detailed universe that there is a specific company that makes them (they're a consumer and aerospace camera manufacturer)

@tom also nearly all of the weapons in gundam are made by this terrifying company or one of it's 100 trillion subsidiaries. They're contracted by every major faction!
