That was also a great Gundam series.

"Then there was your 'heavy gun Regult'. Twelve particle beam cannon-"
"Extra firepower where it counts!"
"-except the radiation backcount skyrocketed and the heat buildup volcano'ed, resulting in the pilot getting toasted."
"How is Warrior Kentyki?"
"Golden-brown on the outside, flaky on the inside."
"So, no great bad change there."
"Not unless you consider phase state change into a drumstick, no."

Lang: "The next step in veritech armament utilizing reflex technology."
Rick: "You just strapped two honking bombs to the wings."
Lang: "Not just any bombs, Reflex Bombs!"
Rick: "Lang the bombs are so big that the landing gears aren't even touching the deck."
Lang: "All first gen tech is big. Look at the first Ipod."
Rick: "It wont fly given those things on there."
Lang: "It's meant for space.... for now."
Rick: "How big of an explosion would these make anyways?"
Lang: "Based on calculations these baby's could take out a million ships."
Rick: "....... Lang, that's just nuts."
Lang: "It gets better, these things can rip holes in space and time. Not only would the ships be destroyed but their debris would be flung all over the multivers!"
Rick: "*sweating*"
Lang: "Cool isn't it?"

so instead they went with 3 multi-megatonners under each wing...

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Of course, when the Zentraedi try expressing their concept of beauty to the opposite gender in the terms they're most familiar with, it can get pretty confusing.
"Uhm....your eyes...they're like.."
"Yes?"
"Like the tracking optics of a high grade multi-spectral targeting array....and you've got a nice missile rack too to go with them!"

"My God man! What is that!?! A double catapult?"
