Full scale Gundam in Japan!!!
 

I just found out this web site by accident and I want you to know that Japanese try to make a real GUNDAM.:cool:

Sorry for my bad English :p

The direct link is here: http://gundampilotspaz.com/2007/07/1...ndam-in-japan/

And the main source is here: http://robot.watch.impress.co.jp/cda...07/17/563.html

It really is an impressive project, the fact that a company would go to the trouble of doing this shows you how much Japan respects it's creepy anime nerds.

Unfortunately I could not find the exact dimensions although I looked as hard as I could online. The broken English from the that site once translated by babelfish isn't too helpful. But it seems the Gundam is a small part of a much larger interactive Gundam themed attraction. With people dressed up as characters and they make the it look like you have stepped inside the Anime.

Thanks for the plug!

That is so cool :) Awesome to see it in full scale . . . .

Or a proof of how much do those creepy anime nerds pay.

it gives me a good reason to go to japan

You mean dancing Storm Trooper wasn't a good enough reason?

Something crazy like this could only be done by Japanese and nobody else :heh: anyhow I would really like to see this in person. Now if they would only make life size Death Scythe Hell Custom and make it stand and show it at night.

As Spike says its best ..

"It must be Japanese!"

or something to that effect , I just watch Transformers once -.-

Spike? YOu mean Sam Witwicky right?

now if they could make one that actually works instead of just making museum displays...............I smell a great world domination scheme here.........anyone else?

some people have way too much free time on their hand if they have the time to build a 1:1 scale gundam.
i dont know weither it s funny or not :/

^ The problem here is that its not a 1 man work.. its a work of a company.. means it probably gonna be like a disneyland of sort >.>

Disney Land with a LIFE SIZED GUNDAM

why don't they make a life size working gundam next, I need something to help me mess with my neighbors

Does anyone happen to know where exactly this thing is? I plan on going next spring, and I'd love nothing better than to have my friend record me climbing into the ol' 78-2.

It's somewhere at the base of Mount Fuji.

Exactly where I'm not sure, but if you search though the page I linked to above (after translating it) you might find something a bit more specific.

Thread revived for the 30th anneversary
