Talk:GN-001REII Gundam Exia Repair II

Shouldn't this be part of Exia?
So one of our editors created a split page of Exia and made this Exia RII page. I personally thought this should be merged and maintain as a single page, however I want everyone's opinion about this. If the majority feels that Exia and Exia RII should be separated, I'll agree with the consensus. One more thing, Exia is technically a 3rd Gen Gundam isn't it? It has and always been said that 00 Gundam is the only 4th Gen Gundam. Some assistance and input people. Wasabi 01:49, October 3, 2009 (UTC)

My reasons for splitting the article was because I felt that Exia's page was too messy. Since Exia had been practically rebuilt I figured that it was a different enough mobile suit to warrant its own page. Also I never said that the Exia Repair II was a 4th generation Gundam, just that it was likely to have 4th generation technology. Of course there is a question of what is considered 4th generation technology.--Animefan29 02:50, October 3, 2009 (UTC)


 * I agree with the split since its stats are different like weight and such. I am not sure about the 4th generation stuff, it was in the article already. Also technically the gundams from the new gundam movie would be 4th generation as well... or 5th. Simant 03:13, October 3, 2009 (UTC)

Classification Clarification
All the Gundams are classified based on design. Exia still falls into 3rd generation, only 00 Gundam has been classified as 4th Gen. I know the scheme is weird, but that's how I come to understand the classification. From what I understand, 4th Gen 00 Gundam was the only directly labeled as so. Anyone else can prove the difference between 3rd vs 4th Gen? Wasabi 03:50, October 3, 2009 (UTC)


 * Japanese Wikipedia note how Denki Hobby Magazine July 2009 list 2nd Season Gundam as 4th Generation. Although only 00 is "true" 4th Generation Gundam, other are 3.5 if we are talking in term of technology. Of cause, Exia is still 3rd Gen. It's like how Astrea F2 is still 2nd Gen despite equip with Exia' part. Or Artemie is 2nd Gen even if it got built after rollout of few 3rd Gen. Kuruni 06:12, October 3, 2009 (UTC)

If anything, the naming scheme further defines it. Each generation design has a series number tagged to it to define which set it belongs to. If you noticed, Second Gen were the GNY series, third gen is the GN-00# and fourth is GN-000#. Wasabi 10:29, October 3, 2009 (UTC)


 * Then that would make the 1st generation 0 Gundam the exception to the rule since since it also has a 3rd generation GN-00# designation. Which is a little odd if you think about it because the 0 Gundam should be the most experimental mobile suit out of all of the Gundams.--Animefan29 12:10, October 3, 2009 (UTC)
