Video of my Trip to the Giant Gundam in Japan

Here's a video I took when I saw the life size Gundam in Shizuoka, Japan.

I'll post the link (and the embed if anybody knows how to do that). Sorry for covering up the speaker at the end.



YouTube - The giant gundam in Japan

That's crazy. I want a giant gundam to ruin cities with!

Yeah, most people have videos of it being constructed, but not after the fact. I was pleasantly surprised it moved. There was an alternate sequence where it stared up into the sky and steam shoots out of it's body as it "cools" down.

The beam saber lights up at night too.

is this is joke or reality man????

It's real.

Was that music playing there?

I was wondering myself.

Yes, I believe it was a theme song of one of the characters/villains from the original Mobile Suit Gundam series.

I'm annoyed I didn't see this when I was last in Tokyo, but I WILL next time.

It's not in Tokyo anymore, just in case you didn't know. It's been moved to Higashi Shizuoka station in Shizuoka prefecture.
