A few years ago, organizers announced the Gundam Global Challenge.
A worldwide talent search, the program’s goal was to upgrade Tokyo’s 18-meter (59-foot) tall full-scale Gundam statue and enable it to move.
That pioneering spirit is just the sort of thing that powers the Gundam Global Challenge, and we can’t wait to see the results in about 18 months.
The moving Gundam is scheduled to make its public debut in the summer of 2020 at the Yamashita Pier, part of the downtown port of Yokohama, roughly 30 minutes south of Tokyo.
