So whoever is in charge of the Bandai Ent facebook account (http://www.facebook.com/bandaient) recently posted a message there that read as follows:

San Diego Comic-Con is next week...maybe we'll have announcements? ?(^o^)?
Not too much later they posted the following two pieces of info, as well:

Hmmm~ let's visit TV Tropes for some descriptions for one of the announcements next week...
"Go Out With A Smile", "Humans Are Warriors", "New Age Retro Hippie"...randomly picked those..
After some scrounging (And I imagine many hours lost due to fascinated reading/clicking), /m/ concluded that the series being described is none other than Turn A Gundam, aka the last series directed by Tomino (Original Gundam creator).

Also mentioned after those three was the following, though I don't understand it yet:
oooh~ /played the game version the other announcement for SDCC. ?(^o^)? < because this emoji brought us amusement reading.
I guess they're also announcing a game of some sort as well.

Their panel is sometime today (Thursday), though I don't know when exactly :ohdear: Is anybody else as excited about this as I am? I know there's a few of you who liked one Gundam or another, though I don't know how many of you have heard of Turn A before >.>

Well, turn A is also somewhat known as the "End of Gundam" right? I mean, The Turn A gundam is placed as the most powerfull Gundam unit, the "One Machine War" and all.

Maybe it's a Turn A Game? A Bit weird.. they just released those "Vs Gundam" games and a couple of more. They are still riding the 00 Gundam and Unicorn Gundam waves...

Maybe they are Updating and remastering Turn A in both Japanese and English?
