Title: giant 1:1 scale Gundam
Post by: Admin on June 28, 2009, 06:42:47 PM

They apparently built a full scale Gundam in Japan. First it stretches it's neck. Then its arms take out the sword and starts swinging!

I am still obsessed with all the flying animes, not so much with gundam but with robottech, area 88 and such.....
I'd just dream to have such a machine built..... really....

I'm going to try and go see it in person . . .

Anyone know if its still there? I know its in Tokyo's Odaiba Shiokaze park, but I've read it'll probably only be there for one summer, in 2009 . . .


edit: better question, where the heck was it moved to, if it was moved? :P

I never got to see it as it wasn't reassembled yet when I was in Japan :(

that said, I found this nice vid of it . . . watch in high res!
