Real Giant Robots arrive in Japan!

One of the web's great sites, Gizmodo, has posted pictures of a giant Gundam robot that's terrifying Japanese children as we speak. It's a life size(?) highly detailed model and utterly awesome to anyone with geek blood in their veins. Beautiful.

Comment by David Smith on July 9, 2009 at 5:27pm: They are, apparently, much bigger in Japan these days (as 80s popstars are prone to saying).

Comment by Jonathan Brigden on July 9, 2009 at 3:13pm: used to have a Gundam figure bought in italy in 1981.

Comment by David Smith on July 6, 2009 at 10:22am: They're of similar vintage though the Gundam series is slightly older (started in 1979 I think). Reminds me of the Angel of the North, can you imagine one of these parked at the side of the M8? Maybe its just what Motherweel needs.

Comment by David Hamill on July 3, 2009 at 11:41pm: Reminds me of Optimus Prime
