Gundam!



Yesterday on October 20th, I went to Diver City, home of Gundam Front Tokyo and the life sized Gumdam robot that they have out front of the mall.  The Gundam Front was on the 7th floor of the mall and that is were I started.  It was because I followed my map on my phone and I got a little lost, hehe.  Gundam Front was a huge.  They had Dome-G in the store in which they showed a a short, 15 minute clip projected on the inside of a dome.  Always had to look up and spun around quite a bit.  They showed various clips from all the shows in Gundam's show.  They had life sized models of a cockpit and the upper torso of a Gundam that you could have your picture taken in the cockpit under the head.  It costs 2700 yen and that was something I hemmed and hawed about and decided not to take the picture.



They also had a museum, several life sized posts that you could have your photo taken with the various characters in the Gundam series.  They had an archive table and huge diorama of the A Baoa Qu space fortress.



They had a museum, an official store and a Strict-G store, a store in which they have many goods and collaborations.
















I finally got to see the the life sized Gundam that they have outside.









If you like the Gundam series, I highly recommend going to Diver City.  You can get many of the models and there are some items that you may only get at the Front Store.
