Bandai Building Life-Sized Gundam
Posted: Mon Mar 23, 2009 2:25 pm
Most of you have probably already heard about this, but I'll post it anyway. Bandai, determined to outdo every Gunpla modeler in Japan, is building a full-size RX-78-2 Gundam in Odaiba, Tokyo. The mobile suit will stand 18 meters tall, and will have build in lights and smoke generators, as well as a movable head.
As both a huge UC Gundam fan and an aspiring builder of Gunpla, I find this very exciting. Unfortunately, I won't be in Japan this summer, but hopefully I can get a friend to take pictures of it for me. Anyone here plan to see this in person?
