Hmmm...that's right. but I kinda was weirded out by G-Unit...it was
so...slick. The designs were like from another series
altogether...rmeinded me of the more kiddie robot stuff...almost sentai like.

I have all of those guys at 1/100 scale...but the g-falcon wasn't reaslly
modular...the durn mecha had to reconfigure to accept it...itwas a midway
between modular and transformable/addition.
The g-falcon is cool though, but give me my G-Defensor!
