Gundam...

[djmdma02]

So I got my copy of Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3 in the mail and ended up reading more about the universe that it was in... Apparently the VX2 was inspired much by the Gundam series. it leads me to think that with how similar they are, the original VX has partially the same heritage...

This may be a far reach, but the command car that came with my Patlabor model came to mind when I first got my VX.

Although, this may have more to do with the Japanese aesthetic with anime.

Hmmm, the Command Car looks more like a "Suzuki X-90" body shape.
