Ever since Wing & to a MUCH greater extent SEED came out, Gundam mecha
have become too derivative for me. I'm not saying they're "bad" per se,
they're just too derivative.
Being derivative isn't necessarily bad, it's just the way in how
derivative designs are executed.
I do like many of Wing's & SEED's designs, I just dislike the designs
with 8 zillion guns, spikes, fins, ETC.
While Gundam is fantasy, I like a moderate amount of practicality mixed
in with tasteful flashiness.

Fans are very likely to buy a few products of each new line of toys,
typically Gundam, Zaku, Guncannon, Guntank, Gouf, Dom, Gelgoog , Zeta,
Type-100, etc. Well guess what, you've already purchased 5 out of
that list. Despite yourself, you have become a reason for HCMP's
existence.
You got me there :) But I also bought the hell out of Turn A merch. and
shunned SEED products so I can't be that much of an influence.
BTW, my most recent Gundam purchase was a two-sided Haro/Zaku II cushion
bought last week. It looks great on my green couch. 2006 was a pretty
weak year for my Gundam collection though. I hardly bought anything.
