2026/04/07

At long last, the Gundam live action film produced by Legendary and distributed by Netflix supposedly begins filming this month of April 2026! The live action film has been a favorite topic of ours so we examine how the film and our expectations have changed over the years. Former Writer Brian K Vaughn (Y: The Last Man, Ex Machina) and director Jordan Vogt-Roberts (Kong: Skull Island) have been replaced by new writer/director Jim Mickle (Sweet Tooth). The announced cast consists (so far) of Noah

2026/01/27

On January 18, 2026, the entire Colony Drop crew headed to our local movie theater for Gundam Premiere Night - a night which promised not one film, not a double feature, but an ultra rare TRIPLE FEATURE of Gundam films. With popcorn in hand, we watched all three offerings: MSG Iron Blooded Orphans Urdr-Hunt: Path of the Little Challenger, MSG Iron Blooded Orphans Wedge of Interposition, and Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz. Since Endless Waltz is a classic and no one in their right mind could dislike

Colony Drop: A Gundam Podcast ·

2025/11/05

Having protagonists get trapped in video games has been a popular anime premise in recent years. What would getting trapped in a Gundam video game look like?

Von Hellsing to nuke the Side 6 colony known as Libot after the Cyclops team failed to destroy the Federation's new prototype Gundam via conventional means. As luck would have it, the Federation captured Von Hellsing's ship before the nukes could launch and spared Libot from annihilation. In this episode, we discuss what might have happened if Killing's plan to nuke Libot was successful. Brian sees this as an early version

We dive into those random topics about Gundam that never quite made sense to us to the point where we had to make up our own headcanon to fill in the blank. These are Gundam's headcanon head scratchers, or as Isaac calls them, Gunundrums! From light-hearted subjects like General Revil's age and part time gig as a mall Santa, or elite h4x0r Kira Jesus Yamato forgetting Athrun's phone number; to serious lore tidbits like the lack of Minovsky bombs and large capital ships, we lay all our Gunundrums

2025/05/31

Stop us if you've heard this Gundam setting before: In the near future, humans have largely fled a ravaged Earth in favor of giant space colonies where they war amongst themselves using giant robots called mobile suits. We've been there and done that several times over - in fact we are doing it right now in GQuuuuuux! So let's think of something new: What are some fresh new settings that future Gundam series might explore instead? We discuss a wide range of ideas including the asteroid belt,
