    Looks about the right age to be a 'security officer'; i.e. far too old to be of any use.

    Saw this in November when I went to Odaiba looking for where they filmed the Wangan police station scenes from Odoru Daisōsasen.... yeah, sad.... lol

    Anyway, after a while music started blaring and the eyes lit up, with the head moving and the pilot's voice shouting out about the Tokyo Front... pity there wasn't a Zaku 2 anywhere nearby. That would have been nice ^__^
    It was great to see such an iconic piece of Japanese pop-culture brought into the physical world for all to see and marvel at.

    Now, can we have a 50 metre tall Godzilla please?
