If I remember correctly, UC mobile suits got smaller because most beam weapons got to the point where they would absolutely obliterate anything they hit, so suits were made smaller and faster to dodge enemy attacks easier.

Yeah, the in universe reason was more for evasion and defense. The RL reasoning may have been to cut down on Plastic given Bandai was a bit financially strained during the 90s. As the small suits trend continued well into the 2000s up till we got the Unicorn and co.

Back in the 80's-90's, Bandai partially wanted to unify the scale of their toys. One option was to eliminate 144 scale kits while making their 100 kits smaller to fit more on store shelves. Miniaturization in late UC was the in-canon excuse to make this happen, but of course, they ended up making 144 scale kits of them anyway because why print money on one scale when you can print money on two?

Why the Crossbone is small, 2 reasons: Yea "As as technology matures... yada yada" only really applies to #1. 1. The Crossbone is based off of the F91. For the F91 to pull off the after-image gimmick. It needs to be able to accelerate extremely quickly. To do this the unit was shrunk, reducing its mass, with ~50% of its main mass [torso] being thrusters. 2. The Crossbone was designed to be used around Jupiter. The smaller mass of the F91 line, plus the massive thrusters on its back, allows the Crossbone the ability to quickly manuinver within Jupiter's gravitational field.
@gmsloep
4 жыл бұрын
Here's why Universal Century Mobile Suits got smaller starting in F91: smaller, faster targets are much harder to hit. The Crossbone Vanguard figured out how to capitalize on this fact while Iron Mask was still in power. It really didn't help the Federation to keep 30-year-old Jegans as their mainstay general-purpose Mobile Suits (F91 came out in the 90s, and the Jesta didn't exist until it was added to Unicorn. I'm wondering how they're going to explain that.).

The size complaint is unfair. You are buying a 1/100 scale model kit that is based on source material with smaller suits. You can't say the Sazabi's size is awesome and at the same time complain the X-0 is too small. Based on the source material both are accurate. And the kit is 13 years old and hasn't aged well. Back then Bandai was releasing one master grade a month and they didn't have the same quality as they do now.
