Mobile Suit: Tallgeese (pic heavy)

[Kuja]

Tallgeese I, II, and III, from Gundam Wing and the sequel Endless Waltz are my favorite mobile suits ever. Why? They're fast, tough, versitile, and are controlled by incredible pilots. Here's a few pics.

A badass pic:


Head shot:


Oooh! Good one! Note the two beam sabers stored on the shield:


He looks like a samurai here...


Tallgeese II, the second of the mighty Tallgeese series:


Tallgeese III, the third, final, and mightiest of the three:


Tallgeese III, heat rod ready to grapple:


Another TGIII, mega cannon mounted:


Lookee! I adopted Tallgeese III!


Oh god. He looks incredible here...

[Kuja]

Not something you want in your face:


SD Tallgeese! Isn't he just cute? Kawaii!


From left to right, Vayeate, Tallgeese, and Mercurius.


Tallgeese II:


Look at those broad shoulders...

While those things look seriously badass, what makes them more economical than, say, a tank?

[Kuja]

Maybe the fact that a Tallgeese can utterly wipe out a conventional army? It can, and did during the Gundam Wing series. Tallgeese III, with its mega cannon, can actually blow away a kilometers-wide asteroid with a single shot.

Shee-it.

That counts.

[Kuja]

Shee-it.

That counts.

*big grin* Yeah. Tallgeese is fast, agile, well-armed and armored, and has a long operating time. The drawback is that only an exceptional pilot, like Zechs Marquise, can handle its power. In fact, a man named Otto tried flying it, and only managed to kamikaze into an enemy base, trading his life for a victory.

Anyway,

Tallgeese the Impaler!

I built a Tallgeese model once. I can safely say that it is one of the most detailed HGs of the Endless Waltz series.
