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!
