For me it's hard to say.  Seeing some of the original artwork (and
models based off that artwork) I feel that the First Gundam designs are
too plain, too simple - big clunky limbs with almost no detail.  The
retrocons I like better, especially the 0080 ones.  I really really wish
that team of artists would be allowed to reanimate (changing nothing in
the story or actual scenes) the Original Series using their updated
designs.  The later series got better and better.  The Alternate series,
almost completely, blow.  The designs are good but not great, some nice
ideas, but every one of them have underwhelmed me.  But they are usually
more detailed than the original versions of the very first Gundam stuff.

I agree that the old lineart was too simplistic, but the concepts themselves
were great.  Hence the retrocons.  I am not saying that retrocons are bad.
I am just saying that to like a retroconned Dom is still to like the basic
Dom concept from First Gundam.
