I wouldn't know, I've never seen Fullmetal Alchemist.
I'm not very good at this 'traditional western anime fan' business. From the Gundams I launched straight into up to date anime and only look back when I have damn good reason to. Currently I'm watching Revolutionary Girl Utena, as well as keeping up to date with running shows (This season is a real winner. I could honestly watch every anime airing minus two if I had enough time) and watching my precious precure as it slowly but surely gets subbed from years ago.
Also, once you get up to and past the Beams, there is almost no similarity between E7 and an Gundam show. It's like saying 'Pfft, Lucky Star and Clannad both contain cute moe girls. Seen one seen em all.'
Also everyone here should watch Kara no Kyoukai.
