I think that might be the best lawn ornament...ever...

I know some group's working on one that works. I got a flier for it at Sakuracon. Apparently they've been working on it for 10 years, and so far have only gotten a foot done.

No...what if you hollowed it out and made a house out of it? 8D Because that would be just as freaking sweet.

"Where do you live?" "inside of a gundam?" A funny conversation could come up with this as a lawn ornament as well. "when you turn down that street just look for the giant gundam, you can't miss it." XD

This is so cool. <3

I would so want to see that happening xD. But I'm not sure if people would want a giant walking Gundum roaming their streets...

I wouldn't mind a Gundam roaming my street at all! :P

It'd put the police on their butts permanently. Who needs po-po enforcement when you have A GUNDAM!?

I dunno, Transformers are bringing robos and mechas back to the forefront for a lot of mainstreamers.

I don't think there are a lot of people under the age of 40 who wouldn't recognize it as a mech.

They'd think it's some kind of extremely elaborate vacuum cleaner ad campaign.

EDIT: Looks like aluminum to me.

That's just amazing. Love that image of the Gundam nearly silhouetted against the sky emitting steam with glowing eyes. It's so epic, the youtube clip could be a movie!

Isn't it the most awesome thing you've ever seen? Heh. :)
But seriously, the thing is awesome. I've been watching it throughout its construction (via websites and YouTube, of course), and I've been extremely impressed with it. All of the work and detail they've put into it... It's simply amazing. The lights, the sounds, the steam, the moving head... just too cool for words!
Yet it's sad to think they're just going to tear it all down once the Gundam Expo is over. That's such a waste... I'm really hoping that they just move it somewhere else-- perhaps to the park that has the Gundam World Exhibit. Or heck, they could give it to me... I'd be more than happy to have it. ;)

I'd love to see this thing in person. I'd like like to go up to it... and cling to its leg. Though I'd probably never leg go and security would have to pry me off... >>

I'm not a big fan of gundam but I think this is just beautiful.
All the details and effects they put into it, I'm breathless o__o
I'd love to see it in person someday! Oh man, wouldn't it be awesome if they built all the other kinds of life sized mechas on different continents AROUND THE WORLD?! Like transformers and POWER RANGER MEGAZORDS?!?!?! holy crap and one day they'll come to life and protect the Earth from an alien invasion and SPACE WAR

Hey, that's where I'd like to get married. Where better than in front of a Gundam?
Now just to find a gal that feels the same. And will dress in Gundam character attire... And wont mind marrying someone dressed as Gihren Zabi shouting "Sieg Zeon!" every so often... >>

That would be fitting if it was a statue of the Zeong or Zaku. Maybe Gouf.

Not quite the Gundam

Yeah, but I'll take what I can get. No use being picky. ;)
But hey, I could always dress as an Earth Federation officer, too. I do like both factions anyway.
