#Gundam #DevelopmentHistory - Zábava
as with many of mobile suit names in the series, we may never know why it's called the "Jamesgun"..
Some dude named James made it and gave it a bunch of Guns easy.
GM is sometimes pronounced "Jim" which is short for James, so maybe this is the "General Model for the military ('gun,' from the Japanese)"
GM is "Jim", Jim is short for James. Simple enough.
The lead engineer was James Gunner
@@Robocopnik Yeah, I imagine that, in-universe, it was chosen as a joking reference to that.
Ah yes... Jamesgun my favorite filmmaker
Love guardians of the galaxy.
@@Jociaoftrades Gundams of the galaxy?
Imagine Jamesgun is doing Javelin...... 💀💀💀
@@stormsurge2103 so when will sunrise make a galaxy scale AU?
They need to make more HG Crossbone and Victory kits
We need a crossbone anime seriously
I agree. I really like the Late-UC designs in general and the Javelin I've always had a soft spot for.
Absolutely
I'd love some MG Den'an Zons. And not P-Bandai, like the F90 kits.
We are close, but we are around UC 100's, so it may take a while for us to be in a possible f91 retelling/reboot
Small mobile suits are my personal favorite
30 to 35 feet tall MS might be ideal?
it really seemed like they lost a step or two though from the f90 era. some mission packs could have really helped, both in universe and out.
With the exception of the F90 series and maybe the Javelin, post UC110 EFF grunts are really underarmed compared to UC90s MS. I know Unicorn was made long after Victory, but seeing how well equipped a ReZEL or a Jegan (espscially the Stark Jegan) is compared to the Jamesgun is really jarring.
@@swordsman1ke511 even more so considering enemy suits are still pretty well armed.
@@swordsman1ke511Budget cuts.
The Earth Federation was cash strapped after the Neo-Zeon conflicts and had to downsize.
fun fact about Jamesgun, the mobile suit is also one of the top heads at DC Studio.
The thing I find bizzare is that the Aqua Javelin was made as a replacement for the Sea Jeagen... which implies the Sea Jeagen was in service alongside the Heavygun and Jamesgun.
Man, the Federation really hates updating their military, don't they.
If it ain't broken, don't fix it? IRL example the Abrams MBT served the US forces well for over 40 years.
i mean, why spend so much money when the updates seem to not be needed? at that point, the Zeons and Cosmo Babylonia are no longer a threat.
@@YiminyCricket pretty much, they didnt feel the need to invest into new machines, as the older models performed perfectly fine as anti insurection tools.
I get the feeling that the Javelin was initially proposed as a Jamesgun High Mobility Type, but eventuality became the Javelin due to having many additional components installed into it, thus having a 'Ship of Theseus' situation
Well I’ve gained a new appreciation for the Jamesgun and Javelin. You mentioned how you usually gain a better appreciation of the units when making these videos and the same can be said of me watching them. I really overlooked these units in the past and now I feel guilty for doing so.
I wonder why mass production Federation MS have J sounding names most of the time. I guess for consistency. We got:
GM (Jim)
Jeda
Jegan
Jesta
Heavygun (the stand out exception)
Jamesgun
Javelin
Jamesgun, Jim Gun... GM gun...
what about the nemo?
@@marcosdhelenoNemo is AEUG's ms at first
I feel like a Development History on mobile suits developed by Paptimus Scirocco would be interesting. The Gabthley is one of my favorite Titan MS.
Honestly like the look of the Jamesgun, but the F91 onwards suits always look good to me.
Would love to see a Dom Development history in the near future.
Development history: One day there was a guy named James, he bought a gun. The end.
also ,not to be confused with Jamestown.
There's a mobile suit called "Javeous" (RGM-147 ジェイブス)
The successor of RGM-122 Javelin
Also, I hope Aqua Javelin and Sea Jegan will be added into MSV
Earth Federation force after U.C 100 almost never Develop any Mass Production Amphibious Mobile Suit
It's already mentioned near the end as Javes.
Well since most invading forces normally take to space, sky snd land thanks to minofsky craft battleships their world no need for amphibious units past the uc90s
I was watching your heavygun development history yesterday and thinking "Man, now I want a jamesgun development history." And just a couple hours later you upload this! Also does anyone else think the jamesgun's design is actually really cool?
Yes more Late UC content!!! I also was wondering are you going to finish the rest of the RX-78 development, like on the later 4-7 Gundams from Operation V? And any backstory on the RX-81 G Line units would be great too
Just too bad we know nothing about gundam unit 8
@@spartana1116 I think Unit 8 is ambiguously the NT1
@@TheRX78ONE yeah had a similar debate were by that logic it could apply to the pixie and other 78-2 gundam dirivitives
@@spartana1116 Yeah that is true, continuity always seems to flux with Gundam, different writers, different mechs, different specs
I've been waiting for this video. And it was worth it. Thanks!
We need more hg grunt model kit from late UC (hope it's not p bandai, lol)
Very true, hopefully they don't feck us over and pull a Daughtress on us when the time comes :')
Great work Kakarot.
Awesome Vid! Love the GMs. These guys are so long overdue for a model refresh. >
I like the simple but effective design of the Jamesgun. The main issue it had was, as you said, being rather outdated by the time we first get to see them in action.
I thought it was talking about the director of Guardians of the Galaxy but pleasantly surprised to be wrong..
Jamesgun [India Deployment Color] is in my colours so of course i now want one...
Same goes for the Javelin [Mega Spear Type]
I guess the Jamesgun mobile suit is considered the Guardian of the Galaxy
Didnt know of the existence of the Sea Jegan. God i need a kit of it now.
Late UC as a whole doesnt get much love. It would be great if they could start by just making the F91 series that it was meant to be.
Or the G-Saviour having more packs.
Well sunrise and bandai need to remake the late UC right away. They couldn't do early UC especially out l forever
Nearly everything after what is happening with Hathaway currently (timeline wise) was either rushed, cut budgets, and other executive interference.
@@frogfinance4605 G-Saviour’s problem is Canada isn’t it
@@adamntcaponewholikesbigcoo1749 Not sure what G-Saviour is. You must be misremembering the lack of Gundam content in 1999
We are so close to a GM development videp o
I wish I was in the cutting room floor when designing mobile suits in the gundam universe just so I can hear the guy in the room who pitches the name Jamesgun lol. I know some names in the universe are ridiculous but that just sounds like someone's name that they just slapped on to a gun and then call it A-day. Then again this is the same series that gave us one of the names from iron Blooded orphans that I still say to this day is 1 of the stupidest names I've ever heard for a gundam: Rebuke Full City. I know I know there's a significance behind that 1 but it's still a dumb name. Nice video surrounding these very obscure mobile suits Kararot!
its actually a pretty funny in universe joke. GMs are also called Jims. Jim is a diminutive was to call James. the jamesgun is also a smaller size MS compared to the original GMs.
also, the gun part is probably from Gundan(which is the word for army), so its name is amissnomer for GM Army.
Hey kakarot, I was wondering if you could a development history of the V Gundam, Gun EZ and also it's other variants if you could.
this channel is so underrated...
Hey kakarot will you do gn x development history someday? Need some 00 stuff on your channel tho
Hi, can you do the gouf development history
This is what i like, in the next video can u discuss more about F90FF plot/related content please ?
Thanks for the video
the MS that replace the javelin on the victory novel is still a mistery, the late UC MS are amazing 10/10 this video
So this is the origin of Jamesgun before he ended up making MCU & DC movies huh? 🤔
DAMMIT I saw the green and thought it was a Jegan video lmao
Could have sworn Kakarot had already did a video about this, but between gundam facts video on "Kickass Old GMs" and Kakarot's own vid on the Heavygun I may be a bit confused.
right? i had the same experience.
YES!!! More Grunt suits please~
9:46 is that... Star Sabers lost brother?
not to be confused with James Gunn, the film maker.
I'm still waiting for a HG RGM-109 Heavygun kit...figures crossed we see it sometime soon with the UC Next 100 project.
Beam trident under water? Weren't beam melee weapons a bad idea under water?
And yet the gundiver and aqua gm have beam picks on its arms
Thx for another ms history lesson 👍
I'd love to have these released in the HGUC line. The NG kits aren't too bad with some paint. But, honestly, some extra molded detail would be nice. I'd like to make League Millitaire variants
Isn't James Gunn the director of Guardians of the Galaxy?
Now the development history of the mobile suits used by the Crossbone Vanguard
Up next Doms and Dwadges?
Palace Athene Development History would be nice :D :D
I hate to sound like a broken racket but will you ever get to the Gundam later types(rx-78-4/rx-78-5/rx-78-6/rx-78-7) I know your probably working on it or for got about it but I really use your development history videos to fill in the missing details on some mobile suit
i know their smaller but the proportions remind me of metabee from metabots
Oh right, the late UC where space colonies becoming more mad max and warring states for some reason.
6:57 Those face with those paint scheme did really resembles the Metabee from Medabots lol
Do flags next if you have time
The only Jamesgun I will ever like.
Victory Gundam remains the only non SD-Gundam series I've never watched. I'm not aware of it streaming legally anywhere and I dislike piracy. I'm sure I could find some old Japanese DVD release but that's more effort than it's worth to me sadly. The show doesn't actually sound very good in most of the the summaries I've seen. I'd probably like if it I could find it though. I just don't expect all that much.
at this point just go to a streaming site and watch it there. also, yeah, the show isnt the best. its basically dumb depressed tomino sharting his way into AU-ness, and calling it part of the UC.
it does have its redeeming qualities. the animation is great, being late 89 early 90's. the character designs and personalities is also solid. but the story and the MS design leaves ALOT to be desired. in many ways, if you like how dumb the grunts look in crossbone, you probably shouldnt have a problem with them in victory, some actually look great, almost like very streamlined versions of old designs.
i particularly like the looks of the shokew line, and the gengaozo. also, the gottrlatan looks like an evolution of the gerbera tetra kai(although i still like the GT more).
I hate to be a contrarion but I think the best suit of that era was Aukladyne's Tactical Waititi.
I find it odd that the fed never learned from the zeon conflict, they had years of history to help them prepare for that zanscare and bespa forces. Training should have been second nature to them as earth fighting force
If the feds were competent then there wouldn't be any need for gundams and their gifted teen pilots. GMs, Gunblasts, Jamesguns etc. are only there to show that the villains mean business, like the red shirts in Star Trek.
The Zeon wars were over 50 years ago by the time of Victory Gundam though, the Earth Federation was in a deep economic recession and in their estimation couldn't support a strong military without risking economic collapse. The turmoil created by the recession was one of the reasons Zanscare rose to prominence in the first place as a reactionary group that gained traction as the Federation was floundering. The Federation chose to quietly slink away and hope for the best, which... was not a great decision as it turned out.
After Char's Counterattack and Unicorn, the UC was overall far less chaotic; things like the Oldsmobile Army were isolated incidents more than they were full civilization scale wars, and the era began with nearly 30 years of relative peace. Earth was also declining into a prolonged economic recession, the Federation was in that regard scaling back its military spending significantly- it's shown to be one of the resolutions in Unicorn's finale and epilogue. Part of those cuts involved scaling back its presence in space and riding out whatever mobile suits they already had for as long as possible- the Jegan being a prime example of that being still mainlined by F90/F91 despite being 30 years old. Also worth keeping in mind, Late UC material constantly jumps forward multiple decades- thus why the Jamesgun and Javelin were introduced already severely obsolete in their animated appearances. The Cosmo Babylon conflict was 123 and the nation barely survived 5 years before bankrupting itself and dissolving; Zanscare didn't form and invade until the late 140's-early 150s. Most of the Crossbone material is fairly isolated away from the broader eye of the Federation- out on the Jupiter Sphere where they've largely stopped paying attention to. The overt need to keep improving upon them wasn't so ever-present the way it was in Pre-CCA UC- stagnation inevitably keeps setting in and thus we have the Crossbone Dust material, where it's gone from stagnation to outright decline and those outer colonies are basically now in a relatively lawless Waring States period.
@@gtf234
Savior is another example of the decline, one that probably directly leads into Reconigusta In G.
will you do one on the basejabbers/subflight-units
hey kakarot when will you do a vid on machine from the CB universe??
Junes theme. Nice touch. That department store seems shady enough to sell Anaheim's products.
One Jamesgun was made sooo good its gonna save DCU
I would love to see a Gelgoog Development History
Still waiting for destiny gundam, ALICE system, and unicorn series development history video.
dont forget the MK series. so many diferent gundams, that most people dont even know exists.
neat didn't know much about these two but did want to. Just never cared for late UC.
I love the backpack
I love them! :D
can you do a graze development history?
New HG when? Hopefullty not P-bandai
Hey Kakarot, here's a question for theorizing: What if ZAFT upgraded the stolen G-Weapons with nuclear plants and N-Jammer Cancellers?
"Get rekt, naturals! Reeee!"
it wouldnt do much? n-jammer isnt a power enhancer, so their beam shots would still be the same. all it does is allow nuclear power use, and nuclear power only gives... power. so it wouldnt need to use batteries.
all in all, they would perform literaly the same, only with an extented deployment time.
in the end the only 3 units that would make use of it are the aegis(for the scylla cannon), the blitz for infinite invisibility and MAYBE the buster for continuous rifle/shotgun shots, which also doesnt seem like that important since that unit battery is much bigger compared to the other machines(also the weapons have their own batteries as well).
Javelin definitely seema promising. More so for the Cannon type.
Swap some pieces is all.
Could U do the nu gundam sinanju suzabi or a video on all zeon mobile suits
Isn't that the theme song for that fictional shopping mall from Persona 5?
When you can see the lack of budget in the designs and animation, after how successful a franchise has been, it physically hurts
Is that the Junes jingle during the Buyee segment?
I feel like we arent giving enough credit to the Jamesgun for being 30 years old and still being able to put up a considerable fight. If you think about it, a Jamesgun was able to hold out against 4 Bespa MS in an off-screen fight for 2+ MINUTES. That chad Jamesgun lasted 2 minutes against a numerically and technologically superior foe.
(It was ep. 11 I think)
I always thought it interesting that dispite the hate they get how often the Zaku and it's predecessors out last basically every other mobile development. It's seems no matter how mant memes come up over the years there is no stopping that mono eyed giant.
Well look who finally learned a thing, or two from there old enemies.
Okay I have another question of the week:
What would the one year war (and subsequent wars) have been like if Zeon had mass produced the Big Zam?
doubt it could happen, as each one would cost "an arm and a leg"...
How bad is it I haven't heard of any of these suits till now?
We need a development history of the musai class
was there a history of victory gundam as in like multiple types of v gundam
In my school vr game the jamesgun and javelin has a veriont each called the jamesgun m and javelin m these have a unique change on the hands there are a ring and in the game there found under tyrant glen command because surprise surprise there married?
Jamesgun is special to me because I am also a James that was born in 1993. Lol
manlet sized mobile suits
GunEZ to follow up why these weren't on screen much?
Ah yes the GM's grandson
or great grandson idk
wake up people kakarot rereleased another development history video
if you want a great idea for the next "dev history", i would point to the MK series. we get so many gundams that ALOT of people dont even think exists. we only see the MK-II, and then suddenly, we see a MK-V. unless you are into the games, or look them up, you would have no idea how the others look like or how diferent they are.
Bandai, MG Javelin ver ka, please. 😂
Do the development history of the gyan
I think if I'd been calling the shots at Sunrise in the early 90s, I'd have made Victory Gundam the first Alternate Universe. It just doesn't feel like a normal continuation of standard UC to me.
Given the heavy emphasis on NewTypes... it could serve as part of the timeline that After War occurs in, if you wanted to go that route.
late-UC designs and lore always weirded me out in how off the wall and, dare I say, not really "Gundam" much of it felt. Bite-sized mobile suits and Yoshiyuki's fits of murderous depression aside, the design language from F91-onwards just felt...odd to me. Suddenly instead of the iconic monoeyes the spacenoids are using weird robot Darth Vaders, and the Feddies are countering them with mini-Jegans whose textures still aren't loaded.
I mean I wouldn't call the later UC designs 'bad' just, they look odd to me. As someone whose favorite era of design is the 0080-Char's Counterattack one.
that's how i feel about every series set after hathaway's flash, they are UC in name only, but do nothing with it. or at worse, they go so blatant with the copy that might as well make it an AU and roll with it.
Jamesgun...😂
so, when can we get a development history of the zeta gundam?
The Javelin might be Nemo descendents
Javelin needs a new kit
aww yis, love me some late UC
In its defense?
More like underwhelming performance in defense.
JAMESGUN GANG WE WON
