Since the Throne Furnaces are the same defective ones as the GN-X has I don't see why the UN would bother to take it apart.
As far as Trans-AM mode to me it looks like a case of removing the safety barrier that protects the pilot from the GN particles and making it like the Thrones and GN-X suits. If that is the case then they probably wouldn't want to run in that mode all of the time They probably only turn it on in emergencies. OR maybe it only kicks in when they go into Seed, err I mean Trans-Am mode? ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joseph Riggs Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2008 9:43 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [gundam] Episode 22 *major spoilers* Now that I've seen the episode the dialogue, here are more of my thoughts on the episode... Properly healing Lockon requires three weeks in a "tube". He doesn't want to risk an emergency, though, so he's not going through with it at this time. Dynames can't be fixed until the Ptolemais can return to dock. But the next episode's trailer shows it in action with Lockon at the controls. So apparently it's still useable. Johann should have had Micheal in the cockpit along with Nene. That way only one of them would have been exposed. Admittedly, it wouldn't have changed things if Ali got into a Gundam, but I thought the whole point of putting Nene into the Gundam was so that she could shoot Ali if he tried anything... Obviously, that didn't happen. It's not too big of a stretch at this point to guess that Nene's going to end up with Setsuna and whatsisname for the time being. Speaking of whom, whatsisname apparently isn't that bad of an aircraft pilot. Setsuna indicated that he wanted to come to Earth to start getting answers about what was going on, and it looks like Nene's going to give him the first few. Taking bets on which episode finally has the meeting between Saji and Nene! :P Lockon tells Tieria to be more like Setsuna. *snicker* Is Transam Mode permanently unlocked on the Gundams? The Dynames and Khyrios in next week's episode didn't appear to have the pretty colors that the Exia did in episode 22. It was noted that the GN ARMS was capable of leaving the atmosphere. So long as it's available, the team shouldn't have to rely on the space elevators (which is a good thing, since it appears that they've lost access to them). I'm wondering what's going to happen with Ali. I don't think that the superpo... I mean, the UN Military *cough* will be too keen on letting him hold onto his Gundam. They'll want to take it apart and examine how it works instead of letting a mercenary keep it. Do the other mobile suits mock the Jinx by calling it "Four-Eyes"? junior
