I love G Gundam! It was so very different from the other Gundam series. The best part is, the significant change didn't send the whole Gundam series to hell.

The 3 forms of wing are as follows: Wing Gundam, Wing Gundam Zero, and Wing Gundam Zero Custom. The truth is that Wing Gundam Zero was never actually constructed (If memory serves correctly), and was more powerful than Zero Custom, in theory. Thus, Zero Custom (my overall favorite gundam) is supposedly the most powerful Gundam Constructed, since it was the only one to break Marimayia's shield. The problem is that Zero Custom was practically destroyed after firing 3 shots from the final twin buster rifle (known to some as the Zero Cannon). But that was its sole purpose: break the shield.
BTW, did anyone ever notice that the end of Endless Waltz is inaccurate? It states that gundams were never seen again after that, but some custom forms (Nataku-- Shenlong 3-- being one) were not destroyed, and Gundam Seed comes after Endless Waltz in the timeline.

Gundam SEED is in a completely different timeline from Wing.
Wing uses the After Colony calendar, SEED uses the Cosmic Era calendar.
And also, Wing Zero was built. Quatre built it after he found the plans.
The Wing Zero Custom is actually supossed to be what Wing Zero "really looked like" and they were really the same suit, it's just that the designs for Endless Waltz were done by a different designer than the original series.

Yes, which came AFTER Wing in the timeline.

No. They are completely separate timelines. All of the different alternate universe series are on their own totally independent timelines.
G, Wing, X, and SEED are al completely independent of one another.

there are only 2 paralells. Besides, all have the same theme, and go to gundamofficial.com

From Gundamofficial.com:

Yes. At first, every sequel to the original Mobile Suit Gundam story took place in the same setting, a futuristic space age called the Universal Century. However, with the release of Mobile Fighter G Gundam in 1994, the creators began introducing new worlds - parallel universes, one might say - with their own characters, histories, technologies, and calendar systems. Each of these new worlds is a self-contained setting with no real ties to the Universal Century history, linked only by certain common themes and the recurring motif of the heroic Gundam mobile suit.
At present, six Gundam worlds have been featured in the animated stories, which we can classify according to the calendar systems they use. In addition to the original Universal Century, we have G Gundam's Future Century and the After Colony setting used in Gundam Wing and Endless Waltz. Gundam X uses the After War calendar, while Gundam Seed, the latest Gundam show, introduces a new world based on the Cosmic Era calendars. |
So what if they all have the same theme? War is hell, right? Lots of things have that same theme.

Your info is incorrect.
GAT is right about the designers being different and thus the look of the Gundams is the result. However in reguards to the story Wing Zero and the Custom version as you call it are really the same machine.
The reason Zero fell apart after 3 shots of the buster rifle was because of all the previous abuse it went through prior to that moment. (Fight with WuFei, falling into the water at high speed, misc. weapon impacts and so on.)

I got to when the horse-gundam thing showed up. I don't know what episode that was. And then we moved and didn't get cable again.

Yeah, Chibodee's awesome. He's a little thick, but he's got it where it counts.

Foonie? Foonie's so cute!
Give Chibodee his props. He may be the scapegoat of the group but he's hilarious, and he's serious and kind when he needs to be. It's funny when he hit on Rain and she kicked him in the shin. Ouch.

Accually it was one of the kids, Ming I think, that kicked Chibodee and said that Rain belonged to Domon.

Well you are right, it was the little boy, Hoy, but there is no mention of Rain ever kicking Chobidee.
BTW, you may not realise it but you are in ghost mode, whereas you weren't up 'till now.

There is one episode where she did. I don't know which one, I'll dig out my DVDs and do a scene search.
As for ghost mode . . .I didn't know it was enabled. I must've hit something accidentally.

Foonie? Its name was FOONIE?!?!?! What kind of a name is that?
Erm, it may have been Foonie. IDK.
And could someone tell me who died in this series?
And what's the name of Domon and their group? With the hand-tattoo thing?
