I've been waiting years for this Gundam to move. Now Japan will rule the world.

If it raises its arm and forms a thumbs up with its hand, I'll be satisfied. Very Happy

I knew Japan would be the first to make a giant moving mecha. Next stop is making a Voltron.

I imagine from 2019 onward, Japan will become the first country to actually move mecha then.....
- In 2020, They will share with The US as demonstration of their friendship and being a huge fans of Gundam series.
-In 2040, US, first country will install real weapons (sabers,missiles,laser beams,etc) in the mecha.
-In 2048,Russia managed to get hands on one of the mechas & its blueprints and building their own versions.
-In 2060s, Russia accidently leaks information to China and did the same thing as Russia.
-In 2070s - 2090s, China sells informations to other third world countries and after world energy crisis becomes at its peak, many nations split/join other countries and formed organisations based solely on ideals and interests.

And now,2100s - The world becomes Gundam world.

Ridiciously, but I don't want to actually happen it.

Gundam franchise creator Yoshiyuki Tamino and rock guitarist (and Gundam fan) Sugizo of Luna Sea and X Japan fame attended the press conference.


Yoshiyuki Tomino , not Tamino.

Real Life Mobile Suit! That sounds awesome. Build me a Tallgeese or AGE-1 and I'll be the happiest guy in the world.

I'm telling you people, Japan is making it seem like a tourist attraction, but when WWIII starts those things will be deployed Cool

This is cool beyond words. I watched the Gundam statue in Odaiba this year, and I will return to see it moving, too, hopefully! Very Happy
