Ok this is a very specific question, but I don't play league and really have no intention of (as most I've watched arcane and won't go farther than that) but are there any characters or skins the invoke a gundam-esc aesthetic?
Oh yes, quite a few actually.
There's the Mecha skin line for the obvious pick, albeit that is more explicitly based on Pacific Rim than Gundam. It's all about the champions being rendered as giant robots battling Kaiju in a near-modern sci-fi setting:
And then there's the Lancer skin line, which is now discontinued, which drew from Gundam aesthetics among other things, mixing it in with a nominally medieval tech-level setting where the mechs are seen as protector gods or destroyers of the world:
And finally there's Mecha Kingdoms, which sort of tried to combine the two previous skin lines. Like Mecha, it's centered around heroes using giant robots to fight horrible kaiju monsters and protect the world, and like Lancer it's set in a medieval fantasy setting, except this time it's a Wuxia-based world rather than European medieval:

Riftquest looks like a lot of fun.
Ryze: Sion, you got hit by three fireballs in a row! How much HP do you have left?
Sion, with his Barbarian with one health left: Enough.
Sejuani: But-
Sion, rolling the dice: I rage.

At least to me, the skins we've seen so far this year have mostly looked pretty boring (except you, Forseen Yasuo) so I'm just gonna yell into the void about skin ideas I wanna see and if Riot ever makes one of these I can use them for plagiarism jk lmao
INKSHADOW HWEI cmon we all know the effects would look so cool, just let it happen
CAFE CUTIES SION but the furnace in his stomach is an easy-bake oven
HIGH NOON RELL or just any Rell skin pls it's been so long she's starving
BEE GNAR where the little form is in a bee onesie like the other Yordles but the mega form is a giant swarm of bees in the shape of a monster, think something like the pokemon Wishiwashi
STAR GUARDIAN KAYN AND STAR NEMESIS RHAAST how the fuck has the anime-ripoff champion not been in the anime-ripoff skinline yet?
SPACE GROOVE ZILEAN just turn Groovy Zilean into a Space Groove skin when he gets his asu in the next 40 years, it'd also be a cool way to finally officially reference the dancing Zilean meme!
ODYSSEY YONE AND JARVAN IV cmon Riot they're right there and they would finally be Odyssey skins that connect back to the original batch that everyone got attached to pls just DO IT
FAERIE COURT UDYR where his stances represent the 4 seasons like he's the avatar of this universe, and put this manly man in some pretty pinks for goodness sake!
STREET DEMONS EVELYNN who uses her tendrils as brushes but just paints lewd art on the sides of buildings
SUGAR RUSH BRIAR (or maybe Cafe Cuties) where her pillory is half a donut and when she's frenzied she gets jelly all over the place
THIS ASTRONAUT ILLAOI CONCEPT RIOT MADE specifically speaks to me and all the old sci-fi b movies I watched growing up, would love to see a whole skinline take this cheesy cosmic horror aesthetic

Another one of our allies in Vanne Coalitions, S! He's another Runeborn, and his inspired form was Sion. He doesn't seem to be able to speak, or he doesn't want to, we're not entirely sure. Even though he is silent and grumpy, we love our giant friend
