I've thrown this up in the anime thread too but I think this title deserves a little more presence.
This is probably one of the most eagerly anticipated titles to be animated.
Blurb can be found here.
The great thing about this title so far (that I've seen) is that you don't need to know the ins and outs of the UC universe which basically opens it up to a wider audience.
In comparison, I am watching Zeta Gundam and as I'm not overly familiar with what has happened in the past (time line wise) I know I am missing some obvious clues/plot twists etc.
Anyhow, release date is March 12, 2010 and will be available on Blu-Ray. I now have a reason to invest in a blu-ray drive for the PC . Well that is the release date at least in America as Amazon are spamming their adverts.
If you like sci-fi, good plot/story and probably some epic mech fights, give MS Gundam Unicorn a spin when it gets released.
