  • BBC made a tweet about the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam during the Tokyo 2021 Olympics, calling it a Transformer. The replies were hilarious.

      Unlike Transformers who turn into Jets, the Zeta and Delta Gundams can actually hide their robot parts in both animation and toys
      Unlike the Seekers and other Jetformers, the toys can't hide the kibble while in animation they can get away with it

      Frankly Mobile Suits are MASSIVE compared to Transformers, like 2-3x times their size massive. OG Gundam wouldn't match up because its weapons are only 'on par' with what we see the Transformers using., but the Nu or god forbid the Unicorn would absolutely tear through Cybertronians like a hot knife through butter.

    ...why has there never been a crossover? I mean I know that in Japan, Transformers is viewed more as a kids' franchise (but oh, for a more adult-oriented Transformers anime) but it doesn't need to be.
    Heck, it wouldn't even meed to be a crossover between universes. Transformers could very easily exist in the Gundam universe.
    "It is the year 1466 of the Universal century. After centuries of travel, the generation ship 'Horizon' reaches a solar system harboring a possibly life-sustaining planet. But unbeknownst to captain Rin Noah and her intrepid crew, they are about to enter a conflict they know nothing about... but which may destroy them and jeopardize all of mankind! Their fate becomes a pawn in the struggle between the heroic Optimus Prime, leader of the dwindling Autobot rebels, and the cruel Starscream and his hordes of Decepticons! If they are to survive, humanity will have to resurrect the long-abandoned Gundam technology - and its inherent dangers."

    In an Olympics match between transformers and mobile suits, I would have to give it to the transformers because they would be so much more flexible and mobile, while also just being smaller so they could use the track easier LOL.
    In an actual fight… depends on what continuity is fighting what series or time point in a timeline.

      Also depends on which pilot is fighting the transformers. Mikazuki in Barbatos would be formidable.
