The ex-s gundam msa-011 g-frame shokugun attempted to look like real grade through paint part separation. Sloppy panel wash and matte topcoat

As GBO2 tends to do, we get blindsided in the middle of the night by a new preview for another 4 star suit! This time, it's the Xeku Zwei! A 650 general suit and a hefty boi at that!

Gundam Mech GhostFace double-sided acrylic holographic keychain design XD I don’t know, basically I was thinking about Ghostface and Gundam at the sane time one night and the next thing I knew/4 hours later, I was left starring at this haha

Me playing GBO2: Alright, that’s a good amount of recycle tickets with more coming in next week, I reckon I can sit on this for a while until something good comes along in the recycle shop.

The Recycle shop: Oh hey, nice pile of tickets you’re saving up there pal, shame if we happened to stock the FA-010A FAZZ today, a rad-ass mobile suit that’s an absolute bitch to get now, from the similarly rad-ass Gundam Sentinel.

(Honestly why do I do this to myself)

(I don’t even play the game anymore, I just use it as a virtual suit gallery)

(And it’s not like I’m ever gonna use the damn thing, it’s been power-creeped out of existence and the gun takes forever to charge)

(And it’s technically inaccurate because it’s got a hyper beam saber)

(But if I’m being honest that’s an improvement)

Opinion on the comments in some of the the @ao3topshipsbracket polls: a wildly popular ship is not the same as one that had an actual impact on fandom history. Most popular ships have little to no impact outside their own fandom. Which isn’t to say that ships can’t have impact on their own fandom history, just that they don’t have much impact on general fandom history as a whole.

I understand that the polls aren’t actually measuring fandom history but this got me thinking about what has actually and I think these are the ones:

Spirk - origin of slash fandom shipping and laid the groundwork for fandom/shipping in general

MSR - responsible for the term ‘shipping’ and was the driving force behind the beginning of fandom/shipping on the internet and the creation of fanfiction.net

BTVS - (unfortunately) gave rise to the idea of being ‘anti’ something and ship wars

Harry Potter - most affected fandom on livejournal by the censorship which led to the creation of ao3

Thoughts? I couldn’t think of another fandom/ship that has huge impacts outside of their own fandom.

Strikethrough made people more eager for AO3, but the original inspiration was a for-profit fic archive made by venture capitalists.

The X-Files' big archive was Gossamer. Was MSR really influential in the creation of FFN? I don't remember that.

What ships have a big impact really depends on era and how you're looking at things. K/S and MSR are the obvious ones from long after the fact, yes.

Starsky/Hutch was what really split Media Fandom from literary SF fandom. Star Trek started the split, but it was people getting into a buddy cop show that made it clear that fanfic zine types weren't just about science fiction anymore, not even "mass media" SF in place of book SF.

Bodie/Doyle was the moment people stopped being media fans and started being Slash Fandom specifically. The US fandom had barely even seen the show: they were there for the slash zines.

Jim/Blair fandom gave us sentinel/guide AUs. The Sentinel as a canon sure as fuck didn't.

Ranma fandom set the pattern for every dumb "which girl will he end up with?" fight in anime fandom forever after.

IDK if we can blame 1x2 as opposed to Gundam Wing fandom for inspiring people to many other incomprehensible math equation ships in every anime fandom with dumb number names.

Popslash popped a bunch of prudes' RPF cherries, then LOTRiPS did, then J2 did, then hockey did, then BTS did.

Free! and then Yuri on Ice started the long slide from anime fandoms mostly refusing to leave FFN to newer anime fandoms being on AO3. YOI also lured a lot of people into anime for the first time.

Wangxian got a bunch of "Ewww, no anime ever! Western fandoms 5eva!" people into Asian fandoms at long last. (Whether this was a good thing is a matter of opinion. Hahaha.)

I really think it depends on frame of reference.
