tlynnec:
LOL! *giggles at random intervals throughout the day*

Vash:
I so want one of those.

having a Gundam would be so sweeet.

Then finally my dream of blowing up work would come true if I had one.

~Vash~

Sindobook:
I think that number is far too low.
$729 Million is pennies when you are talking about the military. 
A raptor costs ~$100M and an arleigh burke destroyer costs $1100 Million. and another $710 Million for the armament.  A Virginia-class sub costs about $2100 Million to build.  The "tax rebate" proposal just passed by Congress cost $150 Billion or $150 000 Million.  They also neglect the cost of armament which is often just as much as the combat vehicle itself.  A pretty shoddy job at cost estimation IMO.

tenkenX6:
Heh, I would love to have my own custom built Gundam.  Let me take a test and if I pass, perhaps the military and/or government will pick up the tab.  :D
