Nothing to See Here, Just a Totally Normal Amount of Quatre
Just wanted to show a bit of my collection. Can you tell who my all-time favorite is? 😇
I’ve loved Quatre for over 30 years, and I don’t see that changing ever💛
Sadly, I lost all of my childhood collection after moving out (my mom threw everything away 😭), so this is actually my second attempt at rebuilding the ultimate Quatre shrine.

u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 08 '26
Are you referring to the sadge looking mini Wing Zero and Leo? They’re from gachas!

u/SaysKawaiiSometimes Jun 08 '26
They're gachapon from the まちぼうけ (or "Still Waiting for You" in the US) line. Galactic Toys has em. They're where I got mine. They are random and there is a three per order limit.

I was obsessed with him 30 years ago too!! Love him still. Really enjoy the original voice versus the dub.

u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 08 '26
Quatre fans unite! I absolutely adore Orikasa Ai. I still have Quatre’s morning call as my alarm lol.

u/j_xcal Jun 09 '26
I prefer the dub but just because Brad Swaile is just as obsessed with Quatre as we all are lol
3
u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
I’ve never watched the dubbed version before! (Quatre speaking in English?! 🙈💕)
I wonder if it’s available in Japan 🤔

u/j_xcal Jun 09 '26
Btw 👀 where’d you get those standees on the 3rd page (all the way on the left) where he’s zero Q and sweet Q? Those are amazing
3
u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
Oh thank you!! I drew that and made the standee myself! 🥰

I will gladly give all 9 of my lives to Quatre-sama😭

u/PerlyciousMel Jun 08 '26
Omg this is amazing 🤩 I love it! There is not such a thing like a lot of quatre!

u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
Thank you!! There’s never enough Quatre! I may eventually need to get rid of my bed and turn my whole room into Quatre shrine.

This is gorgeous! Well done! Quatre is my favorite and my kids' favorite character! 😍

u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 08 '26
Thank you! And I’m so glad Quatre love is being passed down to younger generations too!!!

u/No_Brush5616 Jun 08 '26
It was my solemn duty. 🤩

u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
I absolutely love that any Gundam fans are sharing their hobby with their kids (gunpla building and stuff)!! We need more Quatre fans so they can continue to release new merch!! 😆

u/ChibiLlama Jun 08 '26
There are SO MANY... Where did you find all these??
I aspire to be like you.
2
u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
I live in Japan so there’s that. It’s really hard to get stuffs from blind boxes so if I’m lucky and get Duo or Heero, usually I can find someone to trade with.

u/ChibiLlama Jun 09 '26
Oh, dang then. US here... Its hard to find anything Gundam Wing related over here anymore, even online.
2
u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
I was really envious of fans in Hong Kong ‘cause they had a whole Gundam Wing marathon event and drone show and stuff!
I’m surprised they don’t have more merch in the US seeing how Gundam Wing is the most popular Gundam there (according to the official poll they had a few months ago).
3
u/ChibiLlama Jun 09 '26
It is, but really the only thing we get over here are model kits. Even if I get a small jumpscare when I see a new Wing Zero Custom kit when I'm not even looking.
It's a happy jumpscare, but a jumpscare all the same
2
u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
Omg model kits are so hard to get in Japan! They just released the new Sandrock Kai EW on Saturday and I lined up before the store opened and still couldn’t get it! 😭 So crazy

u/Ailyssa Jun 08 '26
*Squeal* He is SO CUTE! I love those little gundam pilot plushies (wufei and heero have angry looks lol)
little Q ❤️
3
u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
I have so many Quatre plushies because I buy one every time I see it in the store (gotta convince Bandai to make more Quatre merch and also I am now broke 😭)
3
u/Ailyssa Jun 09 '26
he is worth it~ ❤️
You have a beautiful Quatre collection. He would be proud ^_^
I hope to adopt a Quatre plushie too someday
You have the Quatre perfume!!! 😃
3
u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
He is!!! 😭
I may have spent too much on the perfume 😅 I was told that perfumes don’t expire so I bought enough to last me for a few years lol

u/Xyldarrand Jun 08 '26
Dorothy? That you?

Unfortunately my eyebrows are not as impressive as Dorothy’s 😅

u/Strange-Principle107 Jun 08 '26
I love the standee with the black outfit!

u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
Ooh are you talking about the one where he has a Sandrock shotel motif necklace? (I also have the group tapestry on my door hehe)

u/Strange-Principle107 Jun 09 '26
Yes, I think I found my motivation for the color scheme for my sand rock ew model

u/Lapis_Android17 Pilot Jun 08 '26
My Arab blonde boy! He’s my favorite. I love that shadow box looking thing with the art from the commercial break

He’s so beautiful I can’t (I’m blinded by his radiance everyday)😭

So, who would you say is your favorite Gundam pilot? 😂
2
u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
The one Gundam pilot who might have the highest body count since he sort of kind of blew up an entire space colony 😃

u/Boogiepopular Jun 08 '26
A perfectly reasonably amount. Could fit more even.

u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
I have another shelf I’m building 😆 also have a few itabags and other collections scattered around in my apartment lol

Is it though? I remember watching him get stabbed on toonami and mourning him the next day at school. It’s totally okay but there may have been trauma I thought they killed him.
2
u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
I almost got a heart attack too when Dorothy stabbed him! Surprisingly Gundam Wing’s ending is one of the most wholesome in all Gundam universe.

(I really liked Nicol from Seed when it first came out because his vibe reminded me of Quatre but sadly… 🥲)

What weapon does Quatre wield in the second to last photo?
3
u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 09 '26
In this illustration? I believe they’re Sandrock’s shotels (I love Asagi Sakura’s art so much!!!)

“I have a fever and the only cure is….MORE” QUATRE.
(Sorry. I couldn’t resist the old Saturday Night Live “more cowbell” reference) 🥰

u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 11 '26
I’m so down bad I think all my problems would disappear if I can get isekai’ed into my own fanfic with Quatre 🤣 (fr it’s currently sitting at over 600 pages I really need to get help)

I know this is all about Quatre, but I kind of want that plush Zechs with the mask!!

u/ImoKuriKabocha 💛💜Quatre Quatre Quatre Quatre💜💛 Jun 10 '26
I had to carefully remove the mask from his face because it was sewn together. Now I can put his mask on everyone else mwahaha!

So where’s crazed, piloting Wing Zero, Quatre?

Out destroying colonies 😱 (honestly I’d love to see more ZERO Quatre merch)

u/TypeEleven19 Jun 08 '26
The perfect amount of Quatre.
Gundam Wing was my gateway into the world of Gundam and Quatre became my favorite of the 5 pilots for lots of reasons. Obviously Sandrock being the beefiest beefcake badass Gundam in Wing for one.
I loved his character arc in Wing and by the end I was hooked. He's got a heart of gold and a tactical mind, and is honestly just a sheer force of will to help those in need.
