full-scale Gundam built in Japanese harbor

I guess this is Japan's response to the US parking 3 Tomahawk firing subs off the Asian peninsula. they will rain down laser swords on China, Korea and all who oppose them!

fucking wicked! now if only it could be controlled..

Upcoming Hollywood remake?

*books trip to japan*

only in japan

an evangelion would be better..

How big is that? Looks like 50-60ft

can it even move? It probably has 2-3 motors for the arms meh

I wish.

that's my boyhood dreams come true! statue of liberty eat your heart out

How about we put motors on the Statue of Liberty and turn it into a rocket-shooting robot

wouldn't look nearly as cool as the anime robot. a lady with a stern look as if she'd bite your balls off if you say something stupid, in a log dress with a tourch and without any female features. and yes, she has man-hands.

should have been voltron

What about a full-scale Rei Ayanami doll? The interactions with it would be greater than an Evangelion statue, imo.

Need some Red Phantom up in this bitch.

it's been up for a while. ('09 statue)

There was an evangelion convenience store too, just a nostalgia thing for 20-30 somethings.

It's a shame that from an anime perspective, that nought much be going on much these days. The odd lights sure enough, but the industry has wound down a little. But for the newbs sure, oh wow giant robot and nerd catnip in the shape of a shop yae....!!

eva convenience store ftw

evangelion convenience store looks fun. Evas are the coolest realization of scifi / giant japanese godzilla fetish shit.

I need to watch the rest of that series.
