Technical difficulties or just not enough popularity? I didn't even know that the thing existed at Fujikyu. Tells you where I am as far of knowledge of Gundam.

Sad This can't be good. The ride looks so freakin' awesome. kooking at the pics from blogspot reminds me of those Disneyworld attractions I've been with my family when I was young. But I never rode that thing before because I'm not from Japan so I don't know what the ride looks like inside.

Wow this sucks.

I'm pretty sure there is some footage of it on YouTube, in case anyone wants to see it. If I find it again I'll post the link.

Thanks for the video. Though that's hardly the same as riding it, it's better than nothing. If anything, I'd want to ride it more now.

Any known reason for the closure yet?

Hey, that ride reminds me of the Star Wars ride in Disney Land.
