Have any of you guys seen the new freedom gundam pics on mahq.net? I think this new version is HORRIBLE!!! The addition of gold coloring all over the mobile suit doesn't help, the wings are all sideways and don't include the cannons in them like before (read about the weapon characteristics), theres a lamo chest cannon (I think chest cannons are cool, but not on the Freedom, works for Calamity) the skirt rail guns dont have the opening on the front that was also used as a booster for the old freedom, and the beam sabrers are on the side of the skirt armor, instead of on the upper portion. This is piloted bny Kira Yamato as the description says, but my only guess is that the Freedom at some point got trashe dor something, otherwise why would they make this mobile suit that is so cheap looking and less? Reasons for this, removal of wing cannons, rail cannons look less powerful, despite chest cannon added, which makes me think this mobile suit isnt run on nuclear energy anymore. Man, I loved the old freedom. This thing makes me want to puke. Maybe it will be alright... I hope so...

ARRRGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!! OH COME ON,does this pose not remind you of a certain WING ZERO CUSTOM,look at how it's arms are extended,the wings are opened,and the legs are closed EXACTLY like WING ZERO CUSTOM ![](http://img212.exs.cx/img212/1028/nufreedom28rr.gif) dont tell me those are two beam rifles that connect to make some mega rifle. yep,i was right: ![](http://img212.exs.cx/img212/1677/nufreedom34ds.gif) i'm sorry,but that THING has just ruined my favorite seed/seed destiny gundam.

Its horrible!!! I mean, those connected beam rifles do look kinda cool, and I admire the guy for trying to take a risk and be artistic, but this new gundam just looks CHEAP!!! The beam sabers on the side look reminisant to the mursaume, and having those lamo rail cannons that are smaller, combined with no wing cannons ruins the balence of freedom. I do like Nu Freedom though as a name, but STILL, DISGUSTING!!!

It looks derivative of something from Gundam X.

*GASP* ![:o](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/shocked.png) What on Earth did they do to my fav Gundam ![???](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/huh.png) The big red dot on the arms look plain ugly! The chest cannon (from the looks of it, a stomach cannon) looks like an alien mouth or something. They even took out the wing cannons! ![:o](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/shocked.png) The wings look like the DX's wings, the beam rifile also looks like it was copied from the DX. All I can say is they seemed to have weakened the all mighty Freedom Gundam ![:'(](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/cry.png) I will miss the old (yet powerful-looking) Freedom Gundam! ![:'(](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/cry.png) :'

Maybe we should give it a chance. I find that most of the SEED suits look better when they're on the screen. However, this guy looks kinda butt-ugly. Some of it looks like someone took a model kit and started gluing weapons and such onto it

The last good Gundam design was the Strike and maybe Impulse. I hate all these Gundams that have some kind of themes or somthing (animals, boats ect) it's like Orange Coumty Choppers designed them (Fireman Gundam anyone). This new Freedom looks like it's trying to be like a Super Robot like Gaogaigar or Zeorymer, the best Gundam designs are the ones with a military/realistic look.

Alright, I gave it a chance. I found something they should've gone with. I don't know where it came from, but I love it. Seems "Katokified". ![](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y184/Bazookafied/customfreedom.jpg)

i've seen that before and it was said to be the orignal freedom or something like that, but this is what nu freedom SHOULD be.

It looks like one of those silly-ass things out of G Gundam. I hated that show. JWM

I don't know if they're trying to say that they powered up the Balaenas with that red thingy that juts out of the topmost wings, but I think that's what's killing the looks. Kinda kills the otherwise slim-looking profile...

Regarding the design of Strike Freedom appearing in the later part of Seed Destiny Anime, I would also say "let's give it a chance." Let me tell you, I did't like Destiny when I first saw it in a picture. But recently I have somehow gradually started building an interest in this suit. First time when I saw Destiny's face, I had difficulty to accept it as it seemed having a sorrowful face (which portrays Shinn's character I suppose). Later on, I pondered and said to myself that it is kind of unique and distinctive. (A little bit like Mudrock's face though!) Apart from the above, just for your information, I am not sure if anyone has seen MSiA Strike Freedom on HLJ website. Here is the link to the picture: www.hlj.com/product/BAN932967
