Now if they can do scale model of Char's mech.

I remember seeing a video on Youtube the otther day of some other Gundam convention. That one actually had a 1/1 size Char's Zaku II head as part of the exhibition, complete with flashing, moving mono-eye.

I wonder if they just painted the regular 1:1 Zaku II head that they had at the Bandai Museum.

 :O

THE FUTURE IS NOW PEOPLE, WE MUST EMBRACE IT.

Actually, I shouldn't be surprised due to Japan's adults there have a special place in their hearts for Gundam, or so I hear.

Well they couldn't disassemble or make evas, they would need to be made out of flesh or something. Plus they would smell bad.

Eva's has a huge cult following fanbase, but it's still nowhere near the gundam franchises. They are building a Tetsujin-28 (?) statue though.

Well that was a pointless endeavor then :\ I mean, I can understand why taking it down for various reasons, but what's the point or purpose of it now? Are they going to lay it down horizontally instead of having it stand up straight? Is it being moved to a museum? Was the money used for the thing completely wasted?

The reason for it only being up 3 months was because It's a fiberglass model with a steel frame inside. With the changing weather, it would have been destroyed and eventually topple over.  Also, the area of the park was pretty much destroyed because of it. If you look at the shots when it was taken apart, they killed the [parasitic bomb] out of the grass.

So where are they going to move it? I doubt it will fit inside any sturdy building, and laying it down is going to take up a hell of a lot of room by itself.
Or they could disassemble the thing. The RX-78 was designed to be disassembled at the waist according to the cartoon. Not sure if they implemented that into the design.

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.
