Full Scale Gundam in Tokyo Complete
The skyline around Shiokaze Park in Odaiba Tokyo has a new feature – An 18 meter tall, 35 ton, full sized GUNDAM! I blogged about it when only the legs were up but in just a few short weeks the torso arms and head have been added to the RX-78 Gundam.
Geeks in and round Tokyo be sure to do a pilgrimage to this “shrine”
Since making my first post about this 1/1 scale bahemoth I learned that not only will the statue be on display in the Shiokaze Park in Odaiba Tokyo from July 11 to August 31 to mark the 30th anniversary of the broadcast of the first Gundam series but it is also the Gundam Project will be a part of an environmental project called “Green Tokyo” to highlight environmental insues not only in Tokyo but worldwide .
though not 100% complete the Gundam Statue has amazing detail
Hi5 to Punynari who has been following the constriction process for many weeks now, the images above were sourced from here and here. Thank you for sharing! Be sure to visit to visit his blog.
I so wish this could remaina permanet feature in Shiokaze Park
I wonder if we could see a full sized Double O, maybe Exia or even Heavy Arms Kai one day?

When I visit Japan, I will not miss this statue!!
you better get there before August 31st!
So.. Can it move?
Don’t forget Nu Gundam
Wing Zero or Double X would be a good choice too…
And if it can move… we’re all screwed.
Unless Korea mass produces the Big Zam
Wait… either way, we’re screwed
Yes. A bit.

Damn I’m drooling at my keyboard right now when I saw that thing it’s huge I guess they will tore it down at the end of August so sad I wish they would make that Gundam permanent like the Statue of Liberty. It would be cool if Japan has a a huge permanent trademark statue. That will be my vote my friend.
