If you have ever wanted to see what a life size Gundam mobile suit looks like then here is your chance! Japan went and got themselves the first life-size Gundam ever made. This 60 foot tall Gundam RX-78-2 replica was built by Bandai to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the ‘Mobile Suit Gundam’ anime series. I want one. This is only the first step to actually creating a real functional Gundam. That would be very cool. This replica stands over Tokyo Bay’s Odaiba Island, and will be on display during the summer. The thing has the exact proportions and specifications as the Gundam developed for the series. I think think this is pretty awesome. Check out the rest of the photos below and lets us know what you think!

Freakin Awesome.
Gundam is one of the best anime franchises ever & this is freakin' amazing!!!! One more reason I need to go to Tokyo.
Damn, Japan has the coolest shit. I could imagine the amount of special interest groups that would have a problem with this if it went up in the states. Damn awesome though.

Freakin awesome. Gundam is one of the many anime that I haven't seen yet. This inspires me to get off my ass and watch all of them if it is this loved in Japan.

What Japan isn't telling us is that this mobile suit is a fully functional weapon of mass destruction.
It's missing a giant flaming sword!
