Could you be a little more specific?

blueprints from the front from the sides, from the top from the bottom with measurements if possible.
from which mecha universe they are is pretty much irrelevant as long as they´re bipeds and look cool. gundam, front mission, xenogears or something competely different.

Well, for a start there's always the Mecha section of MAHQ, of which the Gundam and Macross sections are the most complete and detaled in terms of equipment, stats, weapons, etc...

You seem to just want three views, rather then actual blueprints which show the internal workings and design.

there's gundam technical manuals with the specs and tech layouts for the various gundam series. all for a fairly good price and lots of useful details. you can pick 'em up in big name stores or ask 'em to be ordered for ya if you want something a bit more substantial.

Really depends what your looking for.

For Gundam, MAHQ is very good. If you want a physical copy, I recommend Mobile Suit Illustrated 2003. Its one of the best books I bought this year ^_^

For other series, you should search places like www.hlj.com I know they still have some copies of stuff like the Mazinger Bible.

I have a technical drawing (blueprint is an outdated term) of a VF-1 Veritech if you want me to put it up.

first of all thanks for all the links.
sea skimmer was pretty much right, when he said that i was looking for the different views. i thought that was blueprints.

@ valdemar: i´d be very happy if you could put the the blueprints.

Ugh, that's bullshit.

Just go to MAHQ, as it's the official residence of the former Mecha Domain.
