Hmm, they're SDs, wasn't expecting that. Was hoping they'd use normal models, but I guess this could be fun too. Has anyone translated the first video?

But unlike typical SD Gundams, the mobile suits here are almost the same height as regular versions. There are even pilots for the machines (though they're children). An interesting choice for the art style as well... a hyper-bright palette that borders cel-shaded 3D and textured 3D. I even like the opening song.

I wouldn't call them SD's per se. At least not in the conventional sense. But everything's relative, I guess.

For some reason, I had this Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles feeling during the OP.

It's official. Every trailer/backstory/origin needs at least one shot of a zombie mecha horde. ^__^ Undeadness is good, especially when slightly shotgunned.

They've been doing that since the G Generation games, actually. They're awesome.

Looks VERY cool!! Very Happy Check out all the movies, one shows some gameplay. Based on the first movie, looks like there'll be land AND space battles, cool! Very Happy

I cross my fingers for a eventual U.S. release of this, espcially since it's set in a original universe. Heck, they gave us those cruddy Digimon RPG's afterall[I DID like Digimon, just not the games.]

They look more like the robots in Super Robot Wars than SD Gundam G Generation for some reason.
