Anytime a piece of Impulse is destroyed it can be replaced midbattle, with Stirke the only parts replaceable are the batterypack/specific weapon set up. For example, if Strike were to lose a leg in battle it could not be replaced on the spot like it could with Impulse. This aside I don't believe this is the only reason why Shinn has never lost a MS. I think that reason is that so far he has only fought 2 people who could possibly beat him. The first was Kira who was not trying to kill Shinn, and the second was Athrun but he was only in a grunt suit at the time of the fight. If anyone one is going to defeat Shinn I assume it will be one of these 2 since a side character beating a main in battle would be a little weird at this point.
And you essentially have proven my point...only 2 characters who can possibly beat Shinn...Kira (who doesn`t kill) and Athrun (who up until recently was on his side)...
If you`re going to whine about characters being invincible you should whine about all the characters who are invincible...
instead of localizing the argument against Kira...there are many more...
that`s all i`m trying to say...
