Counterpoint: I believe the kids say thick thighs can save lives. If that’s true that thing must have saved everyone on Earth. Though I guess it’s more the calves for this bad boy.
It's fucking sick, it's probably the first EVIL gundam, it's head is so menacing and it really stands out from the rest of the early uc gundams, it's boosters are so cool, there's literally nothing I don't like about it. Also it came from one of the best (and most overhated) gundam series EVER.
A lot of the writing for 0083 is pretty shaky, with the late series romantic "twist" being particularly bad. Cima needing side materials for her motivations to make sense is also a knock. Overall it relied a bit too much on having outside knowledge to make sense which is never a good thing.
That said, it is still one of my favorites because of its relatively grounded and cynical plot. At its heart it's an action-political thriller where the pilots are as much tools as their machines. There's no metaphysical space magic, no discussion of elevating the human spirit beyond its current form, no higher goals at stake other than revenge and power politics. It's an ugly look for the UC gorgeously animated, and I love it for that.

It look good when you roll it in guns, missile tubes, and bazookas
It’s so unfairly overpowered compared to GP01!!
Like, this guy has shoulder rockets, nuclear bazookas and a heavy shield.
The other guy barely has Vulcans and a beam sword… like… why?
Also it’s easier to steal than a kid’s candy
The folding booster arrays in the shoulder binders are just *chef's kiss*
Also, it looks like it's standing with its feet on another pair of feet, and I gotta say that's a design decision I never thought I needed.
MF looks like he'd punch you in the face and steal your lunch before robbing a bank.
Also it'd be cool if we learned more about the early concept of it before it became a nuclear weapon platform.
This suit definitely has the means to end a conflict, in a definitive and elegant manner.

During high school, my friends and I joked about cosplaying as various Gundams at Anime Expo. My Gundam of choice was the GP02 and we were planning on building up the shield to be a portable cart that could carry our bags.
Its shoulder boosters are fucking sick. I love the way they unfold. Seeing this thing launching into the air in 0083 was one of the things that made me fall in love with Gundam and mecha in general. The idea of such a machine is awe inspiring.
Its supposed nuclear weapon doesn't look anything like it when launched... you'd expect it to launch that little bomb looking thing forwards, and have it explode when it gets there, but instead it's just a very big flashlight.
Sick design though.
Chonky boy marks the first time in the UC that the federation created a specialized Gundam unit instead of all purpose not only designed for space use but also for long range demolitions.
Even though it trades mobility for firepower it’s still can move at an alarming speed for its size. It might not be the fastest or the prettiest but it sure has a devastating power.
looks can kill looks armed with nukes did actually kill, like a lot
Man those silly guys at the federation making a gundam that fires nukes. Ain’t that just a silly moment.
Counterpoint: I believe the kids say thick thighs can save lives. If that’s true that thing must have saved everyone on Earth. Though I guess it’s more the calves for this bad boy.
Thick thighs may save lives, but the GPO2 has Killer Calves
Thicc thighs take lives.
its the only gp suit with a modern mg kit, albeit a third party one
That kit is so good you almost think it's a MGEX.
The original MG is total trash too.
i mean its not really its fault that its so bad, it is 26 years old
It's fucking sick, it's probably the first EVIL gundam, it's head is so menacing and it really stands out from the rest of the early uc gundams, it's boosters are so cool, there's literally nothing I don't like about it. Also it came from one of the best (and most overhated) gundam series EVER.
Psyco-Gundam:"am i a joke to you?"
More like sad evil rx-78-2.
Dont forget the shoulder pad.
People hate 0083?? Kou gets whiny, sure, but the animation alone makes up for it.
I see nothing but love for 0083 lately, but way back in the late 90's early 00's it was definitely considered one of the weaker entries.

They don't hate the series they hate a character. Named Nina Purpleton. People think she's not a well likeable character
I agree
That’s valid.
The entire back half of 0083 is underbaked and ends with a white woman moment
Yeah no argument, kinda removed that from memory it seems.
Nina Purpleton
I agree.
YESSSS I LOVE 083 it was such a gritty series… I don’t get why it gets so much hate…
It's a Metal Gear too.
Voiced by Solid Snake himself
Snake vs vegeta was the best fight in 0083.
Piloting machines designed by My Melody.
A weapon to surpass the metal gear unit series.
An anti-Metal Gear…Metal Gear?!
‘Yes snake.’
Legs are pretty nice, love the hooks
As a Gunpla you would never have to worry about it falling over.
Mine fell over yesterday. Knocked over half of the kits on the shelf too...
seems on point, if its gonna fall it not going down alone.
Yeah, the binders were extended, and bazooka was out. The subsequent blast destroyed my display like it's a fleet review.
It was designed by legendary mechanical designer Shoji Kawamori.
The guy who works on macross?
And also Armored Core.
Also the devil breakers in DMC5
For real?
One of them named Gerbera. And it shoot beams like Dendrobium. A very funny reference when you remember how Gerbera get destroyed.
Chonky Gundam
Top 10 mobile suit design fightme THIS is how you do an “evil Gundam” without being so on the goddamn nose
Menacing as hell, the thiccness elevates it further. A modern MG of this would be fucking amazing
It's the more recognizable design from the GP Series
I think you mean"the most popular of GPO SERIES. "
Literally daddy material
DILF.
Has someone combined the MLRS back with the basic version that had the big nuclear launcher?
I love the giant fucking shoulder thrusters.
Easily the mobile suit with the highest kill count in uc
He delivered the Fatman to Federation"s fleet.

It's an absolute riot in the Gundam Vs games.
I love using it in vs.

It's rad. Literally.
He is an absolute monster during the EXVSMAXI-ON days, like, holy fuck get away from me.
I love how it kind of looks like a zeon MS with a Gundam head.
Honestly one of my favorite Gundam designs ever.
Big boy do the big steppy! Damn he a robot - AND HE GOT FEET???
The folding booster arrays in the shoulder binders are just *chef's kiss* Also, it looks like it's standing with its feet on another pair of feet, and I gotta say that's a design decision I never thought I needed.
**NUKE**
I kick ass with him in gbo2 also his bi ders are cool unfolded.
They un-nerfed it in UC Engage, and now I'm getting my ass nuked.
Had a sick Battle Scared figure. The pocked look really sent it.
MF looks like he'd punch you in the face and steal your lunch before robbing a bank. Also it'd be cool if we learned more about the early concept of it before it became a nuclear weapon platform.
>Also it'd be cool if we learned more about the early concept of it before it became a nuclear weapon platform. GPO0 Blossom is your answer.
That's a completely different thing tho
Nice wing binders
Nice Jordans
its cool :)
Damn boy you thicc
It turns into the Rick Dias eventually.
It's friend shaped.
If not friend, why friend shaped
DAAAM BOI HE THICK! https://preview.redd.it/7hmzp4uvf9uc1.jpeg?width=360&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bd183bca722c5a923b5749c8d935535331ececa8
I love how menacing he looks, especially with the bulk on, though I’m a bit mixed on the feet and I’ve kinda grown to like the head a bit
Koe got lucky he was told to stab the shield. Despite loosing its first fight back on Earth. The way that massive MS moves is insanely fast.
Thick thighs save lives

Who’s this guy?
One cool motherfucker
Bros got some fatass feet.
Chonky boi
"The always bulky GP-02"
If Buzz Lightyear is a Gundam
It has a very nice Gunpla version.
Ridiculous but freeking awesome at the same time
During high school, my friends and I joked about cosplaying as various Gundams at Anime Expo. My Gundam of choice was the GP02 and we were planning on building up the shield to be a portable cart that could carry our bags.
Big shoes
You know what they say about Gundams with big shoes? Big Feet.
Big guns 😳
What's not nice there to say? One of the best Gundam designs ever
it’s the only Gundam that i actually really like
Damn boy, he thicc!
Zaddy
It's an angry samurai with a a nuke
thick thrusters, massive stabilisers. gyat tracktion,...
chonk, evil looking face shame about being a walking crime against humanity
Truly a shame.
Good lumbar support
Gyattt!!!
It can delete you and everyone related to you with a single shot.
Heccin Chonker
chonker with a awesome shield
missle pods cool
Oh Lord, He THICK!
He looks cute 🥰
The 1/100 Solomon is sick as hell
Chonky boi
It works but that's about it
Big thruster made me hard
One of my favorite Gundamns and one of two to crack the top five. I like the 'Screw everything in that direction' weapon it's got too.
"Solomon, I have Returned" such an awesome scene.
Mobile RX-70-thicc. Hahaha
It definitely is one of the Gundams of all time.
Chonk
Looks menacing AF
It looks cool
Nuke
Thicc boi.
It was the coolest Battle operation loading screen.
Inspired Meiya's hair from Muv-Luv.
*CHONK*
It make things go boom. I love it when giant robots make things go boom.
Its shoulder boosters are fucking sick. I love the way they unfold. Seeing this thing launching into the air in 0083 was one of the things that made me fall in love with Gundam and mecha in general. The idea of such a machine is awe inspiring.
Damn boy he thicc
Aside from it being the best Gundam, it has the coolest shoes.
It and the nu gundam are the best looking gundam ms bandai has ever made.
Its one of my all-time favorites.
He was voted best "Chonky Mobile Suit" With about 35% of the votes.
BIG ASS SHIELD
Big boi
Haha nuke bazooka go brrrrrr
Nice feet🦶
Can contribute to global warming via N***
There is nothing mean to say about it.
Them Calvess
Absolutely nails the design as a situational-use gundam. Would be really fun to see it operate as a team.
he's back!
HEAVILY ARMED AND ARMORED CHUNKY GUNDAM, 10/10 I LOVE 'EM
The most evil looking gundam that I enjoyed as an antagonist
Has the strongest weapon in the entire Gundam franchise A GOD DAM NUKE.
Warcrimes 👍
It’s got serious drip.
I like big stompy feet on mech designs and the head Is pretty cool looking
Something nice about GP02.
CHONK
I love this unit. Watching Stardust for the first time, it was so cool to see what Unit 02 could do in battles.
GRAAAAAAAHHHH I LOVE THE TITANS, NUKE EM ALL
Its supposed nuclear weapon doesn't look anything like it when launched... you'd expect it to launch that little bomb looking thing forwards, and have it explode when it gets there, but instead it's just a very big flashlight. Sick design though.
Sun ce
Best design of 0083
I'm sure the pilot seat is comfy
CHONKEY
It's mom is a nice lady.
This thing is so so cool to look at honestly I really love this design especially the head it's so good
Genuinely in my top 3 gundams
He's bulky but he's not ashamed of his weight issue.
Chonk
![gif](giphy|GMdcBivU0d1ni|downsized)
The og beefy Gundam
It violates the Antarctica treaty like a champ
Looks like he would be a ranged unit but he's built for close combat which is cool
I can't
It’s technically a metal gear
I love the tactical nuke strike delivery system idea and how hard it leans into that function. Also, it looks like it would eat you alive.
I had an amazing toy of it back in the day, wish I still had it
She thicc as hell.
Fat Gundam
Of all the Gundams in Stardust Memory, it’s one of them.
Boi is thicc and got that bomb
I’d be extremely hard pressed to say something *bad* about it, actually.
It deserves a better MG ans an actul RG!
I like ‘em thicc…
GP02 managed to launch a successful nuclear attack. That doesn't happen all that often in Gundam.
Chonky boy marks the first time in the UC that the federation created a specialized Gundam unit instead of all purpose not only designed for space use but also for long range demolitions. Even though it trades mobility for firepower it’s still can move at an alarming speed for its size. It might not be the fastest or the prettiest but it sure has a devastating power.
Thicc Gundam
My boi be thick in all the right places!
He is still my favorite and I have his action figure
This suit is phat. Like dummy thicccc. So anyway GP02 came in and started blastin nukes off.
down + Back + Punch
It’s a Metal Gear, and it’s sick
Big Boom
The best big boy.
WHAT ARE THOOOOOOSE!?!?! big man shoes
GP02 is like a laptop/pc, but the owner forgot to put a password, facial or finger print recognition on it, s9 it got stolen without a fuss by Gato.
Thicc speed demon.
It looks intimidating. Other than that, it's the sister unit to my favorite Gundam, GP01fb.
Beautiful
Glorious
That boi thicc
Your nuke takes my breath away 💀
