Yokohama’s life-size Gundam always looks incredible, but on this day the timing was just right to take it to a whole other level with an incredible wide-angle shot.
Head-raising ceremony held for new/Nu Gundam, the first life-size mobile suit in west Japan.
After an 11-year-run of anime-themed food and giant robot merch, it’s last call at the Gundam Cafes.
Taste the flavours enjoyed by the characters, who’ll be serving customers in costume for a limited time!
Gundam takes a one-day break from fighting Zeon to raise sustainability awareness and save fans some cash.
West Japan gets its first 1:1-scale mobile suit with the last mecha of the anime’s original hero.
Loyal soldiers and citizens of the anime’s Principality of Zeon can stock up on supplies for any years-long fights they envision.
Making sure they end up in the hands of Pokémon Trainers and mobile suit fans, not resellers.
