I have been meaning to watch Ideon for awhile now, so might as well start now when there are no major video game releases for awhile...


Back in the 80's mecha intros were all about manliness, a very different style from more recent mecha (think Gundam 00 S2 ed).

Ideon is probably one of the ugliest mechas I have ever seen, though hard to make combining mecha look good I suppose.

Apparently their war cry also summons the war god, Amuro.

Except this time with a mutant squirrel instead of a robotic sphere.

Ugliest pilot helmet ever.

Amuro with a 'fro.

Have to love Tomino, people get wrecked.

Their mecha remind me of Macross' Regults.

I like how the mecha can beat tanks fairly easy but are easy prey for the lightsaber wielding Bes.

The proverbial hot knife through butter.
