There are many Gundam series not listed.

I have not caught up with a lot of the newer Gundam series. How is Iron Blooded Orphans?

Wing was my first when I was kid. Still have a complete collection of the models in one size.

I love Wing, its definitely a classic Gundam Series.

When RightStuf received distribution rights in the US, I went ahead and bought many of the Gundam series previously unreleased here.
Wing was the first series to get me into the genre. Still my favorite. I still have PS1/2 and 360 Gundam games lying around. Now I might start playing some again.
Cheers :toast:
