OT: Gundam Model @ Odaiba - Tokyo, Japan

[Aangeliceus]

So... I wandered to Odaiba today to have a look at the life size Gundam model that has been built for the 30 year anniversary starting on July 11, 2009.

Here's what I saw (My video):<object height="340" width="560"></object>　(Changed to YouTube/No Cookie 7/2/09)<object height="360" width="580">

I'll say, it looks god damn real... like it could just come to life and step off the platform.

It's a 30th anni thing, so I don't know. It seems like an awful lot of trouble to go through for a short-term thing.
