Will it be fully functional?
Lol, you fuggin' wish. As do I though... ;-;
I sincerely hope security is of the utmost importance surrounding this project since every new gundam prototype has been or will be stolen by meddlin' kids/principalities/adjacent space colony!
You know the drill! We all know the day its launched, some pissed off mercenaries will attempt to steal it, but the actions of some random kid will wake the gundam up and fend them off miraculously whilst leaving destruction in its wake.
Are you saying Jesus Yamato's ascension = Random?
You fool!
Run!!! We're All gonna Die!!!!
ARGH!!!!!!
Don't worry there just a pair of legs!!! All it could do is kick over your house and rampage across town... Wait... RUN!?!?!?11
What's its power level?
over 9000
IT'S OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's 4500, it's only half finished. ^_^
More like 3000.
more like 1 ...since there's no control room yet
but soon japan will conquer the world with those robots!
Shut up. Those so-called toys are going to be destroyed by the dominating power of Kim Jong Il.
Oh yea? Him and what army? commy troopers vs 50ft. nuke powered armored mechas?
You FAIL
Portable nuke generators are still beyond human technology.
Maybe those will run on alkaline batteries. XD
True Face guy failed to recognize internet Sarcasm.
I'll wait till they build the life sized gurren lagann final combo.
I'm sure it'll excite Japanese women too... I mean, look at that package between the legs!!! :)
^ lol'd
Now if they'd just drench it in gold...
And make it ejaculate chocolate
wow chocolate bukake
new fetish acquired.
...didn't that happen in Eiken?
FLAWLESS VICTORY!!
i came
hyaku shiki?
Bless you.
I lol'd. ^__^
me 2 xD
look like i need to training first before i can pilot this gundam and take it runaway...
which happens to almost every gundam series...unknown kid steal prototype gundam
I never followed the Gundam series, but I'm guessing, what, they didn't have decent security on the thing, that even a kid could steal it?
But, I suppose that's a bit of tradition with military equipment.
A few years ago some guy stole a tank in Southern California, started driving it around, smashing up the neighborhood. The military guys caught up to it, opened the top hatch, and dropped in a grenade... end of problem.
Okay, you BETTER link your source, I don't believe you!
Dont underestemate the choosen kids of destiny
They never dropped a grenade, some cop shot him when he crashed in the highway and broke a thread on the tank, getting stuck long enough for them to climb up the tank and shoot him. And the guy pretty much forced the hatch open with a God damn crowbar, his name was Shawn Nelson, quite the interesting nutjob if you ask me.
They always had a decent security, but the kids was either trained Elite soldiers or crazy brainwashed killers.
So the security was always killed off....
He used his Geass
Why don't you just do a colony drop on Equality Now?
Sieg Zeon!
that why i need to steel this unit first...
Damn They Beat Me...o_O!
now if only they didnt run out of gundamiun alloy in the middle of production :X
or luna titanium
What would really be awesome is if they could make a life sized tetsujin or godzilla one day
yeah, it'll be Japan's Statue of Liberty
I would love to see the box that thing came in.
Kip probably already stole it. (´∀`)

1:1 ???? (???? Grade)
1:1 KG (Kami-sama Grade)?
1:1 KG (Kiddie Grade)!
there better be a Zaku unit in the works too
that or a life sized dendrobium Gundam =X
Char's red Zaku please.
This. It shouldn't be too hard, either--it'll get built in 1/3rd the time!!
Doncha mean: it'll be finished 3x faster?
or breaks 3x faster.
I wonder if it's earthquake-safe?
one would guess
its japan... everything is earthquake-safe... even the toilets... O_o
ONCE THE GUNDAM IS MASS PRODUCED...
id like to see this one completed.. then maybe ride inside it.. and being it home.. lol.. like it were possible..
This is going to be sad because you know some little Japanese kid is going to have the same idea, climb the shit fall and kill him self. Guess ill wait for that article once this shit is completed.
We had lifesize MIG-29 frame removed from the park near my home, cuz some dumb kid falled of it and broke his neck
The future can only be told on sankaku, then then also be confirmed on sankaku O_O
I CAME (@0@)!!!!!!
im going to japan to $ee thi$ ...... cant wait xD
me too...booked now...cheaper...
What's the use if they haven't develop a GN Drive yet?
GN drive?!...on Gundam 0079?! USELESS...
you mean RX-79? Also O Gundam was pretty much the orginal gundam with a GN Drive.
Because the first Gundams never used GN Drives?
In most of the Gundam series they where either battery powered or nuclear powered. And we have the technology for both.
In a few rare cases they were diesel powered as well, which may be more economical for all real world application purposes...
Regardless, this is friggin awesome.
Well we have the technology for gn drives we just need to find electric monopoles.
anyone booked a plane to jupiter?
Teh awesome. Looks like its gonna get finished soon.
Next in line? Newtype programs. :D
We probably already have Newtypes, we just need finish that Gundam and throw them into the cockpit so they can "awaken" :D
Sorry, no Newtypes without space colonization happening first.
Wow! the way i see it, is like it's about 2 story building without the rest of the body...
Wow, it looks basicly how you would build a 1:1 scale model.
They must have HUGE cutters to get the plastic pieces out of the frame.
But where's the box it came in?
They need to put some underpants on that thing to cover up its Gundam Junk.
Junkam.
Shit, i wanna see this face to face so bad. Wonder if i can find a cheap air ticket from Shanghai...
Wow, that much already?
I like the 'legs' tag, this post is sure to stand out among the rest.
now I wonder why they used such low fences? I mean if you are planning in making a 1:1 gundam isn't it obvious you will need something more then those little blankets to cover it?
Can't wait for the finished product, I wonder if they will mass produce it...
Nice millitary plan for defending Japan! xD
greatest use of human resources in this history of mankind.
lol 'Green' Tokyo and whats with the Olympic Rings got to go with this? lool They plan on racing with Gundams? xD! Love to see that lol or dancing like they did in fumoffu LOL xD!
Mayby next will be lifesize evangelion ? I would like to see that
I'm waiting for a 1:1 Wing Zero
It would kick arse and chew bubble gum
This is why i love Japan.
Didn't they already have one life size gundam in the gundam museum? I think i saw it on tv, massive.
i saw a gundam life sized in KL ._. 4gt where
If you build it, he will come......
Now just wait for China to pirate this.
are they making the other half as the random power ranger robot? LOL
This is simply pure win.
Awesome. And I'm not even a Gundam fan, I mean, the only series I've whatched is Gundam Wing. I'd love to see that in person. A pity it's not gonna happen. ><
Kind of like to see the Black Tri-Stars Doms doing their Jet Stream Attack.
The infidels in America can never build anything as cool as this. You'll never see George Lucas shelling out the cash to build a full-scale X-Wing or TIE Fighter. That's how lame we are.
He already built one. It was in the movies.
They threw it in the swamp..
I telling you right now aliens are going to attack the earth and this gundam will be our only means of protection.
And of course a kid is going to accidentally activate the gundam and become it's pilot.
Quick! Get the Knightmare Frames, we can't let these elevens finish!!
u make my day :)))))))))
Screw Brittania!
Alright! all we have to do is put Michael Jackson and R Kelly for security....problem fix with kids stealing gundam.
sadly we won't see mecha in the gundam fashion for a while if ever in our lifetime. there's nothing a "gundam" can do that a tank/airplan can't in current warfare :(
Can tanks and airplanes use melee weapons? Strike cool poses? Have kid pilots?
Nah, didn't think so...
because melee weapons are actually practical in modern machinery warfare!
Yeah Mechas are far from pactical currently.
and I'd say they will still be until new and stronger metal alloys are discovered,so that they won't bite the dust in a few missiles.
Think about it this way machinegun anti tank weapon. Just run over mountains very useful if you think about it.
Come 60th Anniversary, I want a 1:1 Zaku II-S.
Why S? Because it's a much more important character...and it'll be 3x faster to build. :P
LOL! They should build it complete with dragoons, guns, laser swords, flashy stuff... Heh, I really can't wait for the future! Just think: Real Mobile WOMD, Collonial feuds, Post-apocalyptic era....
Epic!
This is obviously the secret defense system Japan has created against North Korea.
It needs to move when it's finished.
Wonder which version type it will be when it ever gets completed?
RX-78 duh
may they succeed on their project
We all know what we need is doraemon to get this thing moving,now quickly search your closet and drawer.
cool~~~~~~~~~~~~~
too awesome, i love this
Soon, Japan will be the most fearsome country in the world.... Gasp!
Enter: the true Shaolin golden leg. Exit: Stephen Chow, disgraced after giant robot legs replace his Chinese stardome. What do we have here? Shaolin Soccer 2 - Sing's broken leg!?!
i would draw my self into debt for that thing
I was just thinking.. how awesome it would be if the whole exhibition is just a cover up for creating a working... fully functional gundam..
hah what am i saying.. we all knew japan was bound to have gaint robots someday >_<
I saw the statue yesterday XD
it only has the left arm and head to go :)
sadly i wont be here for its completion date X@
this is like building a master grade only way larger
