Do not watch the Zeta movies if you haven't seen the Zeta series. There will be lots of things that make absolutely no sense otherwise. It's bad for a first contact with Zeta.

The Gundam |OT| Destiny is something we all have to deal with

If you want modern visuals, watch 00 or IBO. Both are on Youtube on Gundam.info's official channel.
Does anyone know if you can order specific runners from Japan Cool?
My glass TV stand exploded the other month, and Sandrock lost his Heat Shotel holding hand in the process, and I was wondering if I could put down an order for the plastic runner that hand was on.
How it didn't lose anything else in the fall, especially the head fins, is a miracle lol.

Gundam models and a lot others from Japan, are snap fit. Held together by friction and connections.
Unicorn looks the best.
gAGE as well.
IBO too but it has the least memorable designs.
The 0079 tv dub was actually really good. The movie dub is some awful mid-to-late 90s relic. Zeta's was ok.
Wow. Uhhh, well IMO 00 and Iron Blooded Orphans are both good and they're a lot newer . I guess also give a look to 0080, 0083, and 08th MS Team to see what decade you're comfortable with.
Yeah I would imagine the dub is way different for the TV series because it didn't come over til later . I remember the films were already in video stores when I was a kid so that dub would be way older.
It's so very strange how the appearance in the short clips of the animation led me to believe this was a very different style, like based on Barbatos. Now, I'm not that interested at all. One of the comments I read there was to the effect of, "They were trying for a re-bake, but this should be incinerated."
This looks pretty cool. Tryon 3 cracked me up so I hope this one has jokes and a funny title card too.

Love the weapon for the Rebake based one, but yeah, I usually like bulky suits... theres something just off about it, dare I say ugly.
Interesting that they have an Altron based suit too, looks really over done but interesting. Wonder if they have a new mold for it since the last HG wing kits were from what 15 or more years ago if I remember right.
So, I got one of the figures as a kid, and played a bit of one of the musou games, and I'm always after something new to watch and always though the mech suits were so, oh wise Gundam fans, what series is a good place to start? Prefer dubbed even if it winds up a little cheesy(grew up loving the classic Godzilla movies, own the toho collection 2), And I don't mind if it's older. Only anime I've watched is Dragon Ball (original mostly subbed, Kai, and I'm up to date on dubbed super) and MHA. Was more of a western animation guy till recently, but I've been enjoying how anime tends to be focused on continuing narratives and stories instead of situational episodes.
So mind giving me a hand?

Not sure what's all been dubbed honestly personally but from what I remember/know the dubbed Gundam anime are: The original simply titled Mobile Suit Gundam (sometimes called Gundam 0079 by fans), Gundam Zeta, 0083, 08th MS Team, G Gundam, Gundam Wing, Gundam SEED, Gundam SEED Destiny, Gundam 00, and Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans.
Out of these I'd recommend, Iron Blooded Orphans (newest series), 08th MS Team, 0083, and even the original. SEED and 00's second half are low points in what was otherwise a pretty excellent first half. Others will recommend Wing most likely as its where they started.

I thought it would be different. I'm disappointed after seeing it. lol.
I had a good amount of fun with the original on the PS3, hopefully the PS4 sequel turns out well. Battle Operation NEXT is terrible, though.
And I still want a PS4 retail Universal Century non-gunpla single player Gundam game.
With Build Divers being a thing I don't understand how a PSVR Gundam game with a cockpit view still hasn't been announced. I hope Ace Combat gets Bandai Namco the required VR know-how to pull it off successfully.
Bonds of the Battlefield was great fun in the arcade, but I am not a fan of VR, so I'd rather not see our only chance at something UC-based this generation go that direction. Ugh.
Just let some B-team at FROM who worked on Unicorn and ACE make another Gundam game. Or the people behind Battlefield Record UC 0081 and Side Stories.

Yes yes yes yes.
Was a Seed or Unicorn game the last thing released that wasn't Breaker/Battle Operation/Versus/SRW/GGen?
Ace Combat 7 is my most anticipated game... considering it went from a mid Fall release to... no release date I'd be worried about their VR chops. Likely rumor is that the positive feedback of their VR "experience" made them want to do the whole game.
wait does that mean it wont be able to be played in non vr?
It will 99.9% be like Resident Evil 7 where it's an option to do normal or VR, if this is in fact what is happening with it.
Side Stories on the PS3 was the last. That's where Missing Link and the Pale Rider unit come from.
Unicorn came out before SS. It's one of my favorite games of all time.

I love the turn-of-phrases the Build series has. Nothing beats the first season's, "This. Is. My. Gunpla!"

Anyone picking up the Switch GGen port? Curious how it performs docked and handheld. The vita version was pretty blurry and load times were pretty bad.
Someone ended up giving me the PS4 version which more or less solved these things, but I'd still rather play it on a portable.

I think it looks great too, particularly the awesome PG of it with LEDs. Though I question the addition of tails, need to see some functionality to sell me on them.
Hoping a bunch of the SRW titles make it to switch, portable but with higher performance is great. Then again I still don't own a switch.
edit: Mazinkaiser got delayed! Planned to go out this afternoon and pick it up, checked the sites and now saying mid May! There goes my golden week build.

Once again, thanks for the refs, I'll ask for where I go next after I watch the original(which wasn't on Hulu, but's I found elsewhere) watched just the setup intro so far, but boy that was a set. (Also Hulu does have origin, blood orphans, uc, wing, 00, the 08, And seed.) so it will be convient later
Hulu has all those? Man I may need to re-up my Hulu subscription.
A few options. In the same timeframe you have 0080 which is one of the greatest series of all time, and 08th MS Team which is a good series that kind of stutters at the end. If you want the next sequel series produced it is Zeta. ALl of these have dubs.
The only Gundam series without dubs are ZZ, V, X, and Turn A(whose dub was canned years ago though it had gone into production).
WIth the original series. There is either the original 1979 43 epsode anime or the movie trilogy. If you are more of a reader, the Origin manga is phenomenal. And it is available online for free at https://comic-walker.com/contents/detail/KDCW_CW01000002020000_68/
Question was already answered above, but the most popular choice is the Mobile Suit Gundam Movie Trilogy, which sets up the rest of the UC series which is the main focus of Gundam media. Some people also started with Gundam Seed and loved it, but don't bother with the sequel Destiny.
