This RX-78 Mobile Suit Gundam 1/1 scale measures to 18 meters tall (that is 59 foot tall!) and will be display to the public at Odaiba’s Shiokaze Park, Tokyo for two months. I always admire Japan’s creation of coolness in most of their Gundam series, I even owned one 1/100 MG MSN-04 Sazabi which I won ‘Special Award’ in the first Gundam Modelling Kit Competition in my home place back in 2000, but this full scale Gundam is total awesomeness!!!
I just got one question.. will this keep Decepticons away from coming to Japan?
