Need Advice on Gundam...

[Ichigo_89]

OK, if you were to purchase 2 of the titles below first, which ones would U choose and why. (And don't pick them just because U havn't seen them) I'm looking for Gundam experts, die-hards, and people who've seen alot of these. HELP! (Note: the content in all of these, I can handle. So don't have that Q come up.)

ZETA GUNDAM
GUNDAM 0080
GUNDAM 0083
GUNDAM WING
GUNDAM F91
GUNDAM 5-Movie Pack (Millar's Report, original Gundam trilogy, & Char's Counterattack)
GUNDAM 8TH MS TEAM

I've not seen them all, but from what I have seen, I would get 8th MS Team and Gundam Wing. I've only seen one of the movies in the pack, but I think I would probably dig the movie pack as well.

GUNDAM 0080, a very good UC gundam story. Shows that no matter what side of a war that you are on that the acts of war can be costly.

GUNDAM 0083, a good love story that is built around the one year war. Also shows that each side can have a person with a heartless mind.

Wing all the way: Most complex characters, deep emotions, and witty storyline. Not to mention good Gundams
Then 08th MS Team, awesome story, but characters not as good as Wing. SOme say best characters ever in Gundams

1: 0080 This has, in my opinon, the best story of a gundam series, if you can get past the dated animation. (plus it's only 2 discs long!)

2: 8th team. A close second, has good story, awesome battle sequences, I just thought the villian couldv'e had better dialogue/actions in the last ep.

3: Wing and 0083 tie for third place.

Man, I feel like an idiot and it took me this long to see my error in my post.

When I was talking about GUNDAM 0083, a good love story that is built around the one year war. Also shows that each side can have a person with a heartless mind.

My bad, I was trying to meant to say that 08th team is a good love story that is built arond the one year war and also shows that each side can have a person with heartless mind.

Well, I've already seen Gundam 0080 quite a few times, But I still don't own the R1 DVDs. Saw the import, had crappy subs, sold that. Before that I got it english dubbed on VCDs with the worst pic quality that kept freezing up. (This is before I knew about bootlegs and such about 3 years ago.) So before FINALLY purchasing the real things, I'm gonna go with something I havn't seen.

Not enough opinions yet for me to figure out wat to buy...*SIGH*

8th MS Team: In my mind has the best cast of characters in any Gundam series, a more tight story focused on a smaller cast than in other Gundams, awesome battles, animation.

Gundam Wing: A decent cast of memorable characters, crazy battle sequences, lots of political intrigue, good animation.

Thx guys. I'll most likely be getting 8th Ms Team now. Really want to see Gundam Wing as well, but I'll prolly get 0083 before it just cause I saw some freakin awesome episodes of it on TV and I was very impressed. (Plus it's cheaper!)
