SEED Online by Chris 5:46 P.M. EST
A recent Yahoo story reveals that Bandai will be broadcasting each of the 52 episodes of Gundam SEED on the internet for free the day after it airs on TV. Thanks go out to Andrew Tei of Anime on DVD.com for pointing out the story. I've reorganized the SEED anime page in preparation for the show's release. You can expect my reviews of the series to appear as soon as I can get my hands on the episodes.

Chat Stuff and a New Button by Lore 1:06 A.M. EST
The new button next to the logo is a solution for many fans who complained about the automatic redirect. Now, the redirects are optional for people who click links in search engines. It's a new week, so the chat statistics for the previous week are now updated. In addition, Corben has added and modified quite a bit to the Chat section. Finally, I am also changing my e-mail to Lore_MAHQ@hotmail.com, effective immediately.

They Call Me MISTER Gundam by Chris 7:40 P.M. EST
I've got a large update today, but first it's time for an announcement. As of next Monday, I am switching my e-mail address to rand_wt@yahoo.com. After Monday I will no longer be responding to e-mail from my Hotmail account. If you send mail to that account after Monday, well, too bad for you.

Now, let's move on to the updates. First, there's plenty of new video game related Gundam mecha sections, thanks to the efforts of Corben, Mark064 and RGZ-91. The new sections are as follows: Lost War Chronicles, Federation VS Zeon DX. In other game related updates, Mark Simmons has provided official lineart for the Mudrock Gundam from Zeonic Front and Lost War Chronicles. From the Japanese magazine Gundam Ace, check out the new section Char's Deleted Affair. Also, there's been a lot of updates in the Gundam: The Origin. New pics are courtesy of TKrys, edited by Ryukami and Lore. The Gundam the Ride section has also been updated.

There's also been various updates to the Gundam SEED section, including a new pic for the dog-ish BuCUE and a new profile for the Mistral. In the Macross section, several readers have pointed out that the YF-19's Gerwalk and Fighter pictures were actually from the VF-19 Kai, so Jameson Leaser was kind enough to provide the correct pics. Also, a new Battroid pic is available for the VF-0 from the new Macross Zero OVA.

Earth Light by Chris 11:25 P.M. EST
I've been absent from the scene for awhile due to computer upgrades, but luckily Lore has been able to handle things in my place. As a result of my absence, I'm behind on profiles for G Gundam and reviews for Gundam ZZ, but I'll get back to that soon. In the meantime, check out my review (with screenshots) for the recent compilation movie Turn A Gundam I: Earth Light.

The Mascot Machine by Lore 7:22 P.M. EST
Machineman surprised me again recently, by supplying mascots for every section that didn't have one. Those sections were Lost Universe, Vampire Princess Miyu, and Outlaw Star. A big thanks goes out to him for helping to make the site more complete.

#MAHQ Chat Statistics by Lore 11:27 P.M. EST
To encourage user participation, I have added a user statistics page in the Chat section. This comes courtesy of our #MAHQ chat moderator Corben, who logs the chats each and every day. The statistics will be updated every Saturday night.

Mecha Corrections by Lore 3:12 P.M. EST
I received an e-mail from Mika Akitaka, a mecha designer for many different Gundam series, alerting me that we incorrectly credited Hajime Katoki for designing the MS-14F Gelgoog Marine, MS-14Fs Gelgoog Marine Commander Type, and MS-21C Dra-C, all from Gundam: 0083. He is now properly credited for those mecha. In addition, loyal MAHQ fan and forum member Machineman has personally designed mascots for Dragon's Heaven, Megazone 23, and Patlabor in the Mecha section.

America Will See the Sign by Chris 11:10 P.M. EST
Signs? No, not the movie from that guy who did The Sixth Sense. Probably sometime next year America will see the sign of Zeta, as in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam. Anime on DVD confirmed Bandai's announcement of Zeta Gundam at Anime Expo New York. No other details are available now, but given past releases, here's what I expect: the series runs 50 episodes, so you can probably expect it to be spread evenly on 10 DVD's. Also, I would expect that it's set for broadcast next summer on Cartoon Network. However, until more is known, this is pure speculation. I will post more info as soon as it's available.
