Kira might be one hell of a lucky guy when it comes to surviving explosions, but he hasn't really endured anything outside of the Gundam in the same way Heero has. Also both of them have survived explosions, so in the end I'd give the God mode title to the Wing folks.

Also about flashbacks, I agree that it feels like they are sometimes shoved in the show to fill out screentime. On the other hand, when used correctly, it is indeed a great way of telling the story. A good example of this is when Shinn kills Todoka, having Shinn flashback to when he first met the captain at that shelter (or whatever it was) greatly enhanced the entire scene.
Well Heero is supersoldier or something like that. He has no emotions and such, but he failed in his missions, his mobile suit got scrapped at least twice in series (i am talking about Wing Gundam here not Zero) until he got superGundam.

Kira outside of his mobile suit is just.. human. He cries, he has friends, he loves Lacus etc etc etc...
When he gets into Gundam he is almost invincible. I guess that is what annoys me. Okay he got his ass kicked by Shinn once, but the true reason behind this is so he could get shiny new SF.
Camille in Zeta never was so perfect, Amuro screwed up many times, they all are just human and make mistakes. Kira is just way too much "superhero" in his mobile suit. Just my opinion

Heero is "cold blooded" all the way. But he has soft spot for Relena, go figure...
And he also likes to team up with Duo

Some flashbacks are okay, but i dislike their constant abuse. Do they really think that viewers are SO stupid that they don't get it on 1st try that they are ramming lesson down our throats over and over again?
Oh well "repetition is a mother of knowledge" as my old teacher said...

I know how Nicoli died. Heck, i've seen him dying more in flashbacks than he was shown alive.
I know what Patrick Zala did, i know how Uzumi died, how many times i have to watch that?
