Enter The Gundam
Something I love about the Japanese is there undying love for awesome stuff. I mean, they do cool things just for the sake of doing cool things. Take this for example - a giant replica 1:1 scale RX78 Gundam robot that they built on the man-made island of Odaiba, Tokyo. 59 feet tall and utterly awesome, it’s a site to behold.

Looking sexy in front of the Gundam
If you want some hi-res photos or photos of it at night check out these posts over at Danny Choo and Shibuya 246.

I don’t think I will ever get sick of looking at pics of the scale Gundam. It’s a tourist spot and terrorist deterrent in one!
I don’t even like Gundam, but that’s awesome! I respect any community who allows fandom to be taken so far.
Yeah, gotta love the Japanese passion
It’s really a work of art and I think it’s still possible for them to make a real robot out of it. It only proves that they can create world of warcraft replica and I think the right timing is before the launch of wow the movie.
