Cool Video, Bro: 1/1 Scale Gundam Statue Rises In Odaiba

Is it weird that if I took a vacation to Japan, the first thing I’d want to visit is the life-size Gundam statue?

Remember that 1:1 scale Gundam sculpture in Shizuoka, Japan?  

Bandai Drops Flurry of New Gundam Info

Because us mecha nerds can’t get enough Gundam, Bandai has thrown some new details about the newest entry in the long running franchise, titled Gundam AGE. Hit the jump to check out the new details and a video preview.  

Quick Review: Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn Volume 3

Another excellent offering by Bandai, volume 3 of Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn once again awes with its top-tier animation, but is it worth 45 dollars for one hour of Gundam?  

Gundam Style Mechs in a Dystopian Future Conspiracy Movie? SOLD!

The reason why this movie has to be crowd funded is because Hollywood won’t get on board. It doesn’t fit the criteria of a Prequel, Sequel, Reboot, Mash Up, Comic Book or Novel Adaptation of a bunch of stuff that has already been done before so much that the dead horse they’ve been beating isn’t there anymore. It’s just an old man beating on the shadow outline of a horse.

Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3 – New Screenshots

Fans of the beat-em-up series Dynasty Warriors: Gundam should get ready to have a nerdgasm from how damn sexy this game is looking.  

Armored Core 5 – Trailer

Being the only whore here at MWN to own just about every giant mech game put out in the last 15 years or so, including all of the Armored Core and Gundam games. Yes, all of them. Even the impossibly hard Project Phantasma and the ultra shitty Crossfire for the PS3…I like to think of myself as somewhat an expert at this genre. With that being said…I can’t wait for this game to drop. Even though AC4 wasn’t... 

Major News from Gundam Big Expo

Two big pieces of Gundam news have come out of the Gundam Big Expo event in Tokyo. Gundam Unicorn, which I talked about yesterday, has been confirmed as an OVA series. There will be six episodes, each one clocking in at fifty minutes. The series will have a simultaneous worldwide launch next spring, as confirmed by Bandai Visual. Gundam Unicorn will be released on DVD and Blu-ray and shown at events. The fact that Gundam... 

Gundam Unicorn Details Announced

With Mobile Suit Gundam 00 ending last March, it was only a matter of time before Sunrise released a new Gundam series. Let’s face it, the franchise practically prints money, and the rabid fanbase (myself included) eat it up. With that in mind, Sunrise is adapting the popular Gundam Unicorn novels into an anime, which is scheduled to be released this winter. Gundam Unicorn is set in the Universal Century (UC) timeline,... 

Giant Gundam Arrives in Japan

The Gundam in the picture above is 59′ tall and it’s been built in Japan for one reason only;  To help them win their bid for the 2016 Olympic Games, if they can build robots this big give them the Olympic Games after the effort that’s gone into this they deserve it.  I can’t wait to see what crazy ideas they’ve got for the stadium itself.  

Weeaboo Weekday: Tardiness, Giant Robots, and 30 Years of Emo Pilots

Since today is Thursday, I figured I’d have to change the title of our not-so-punctual Weeaboo Wednesday. Just roll with it kiddies, there is something awesome contained within. What’s cooler than watching a show about giant robots? Seeing a real (I use the term “real” loosely) giant robot. For those who aren’t Gundam-obsessed, like myself, 2009 is the 30th anniversary of the first airing... 

Weeaboo Wednesday: Gundam 00 Season 2 Impressions

One of the best series to come out of last year’s anime season was Mobile Suit Gundam 00. The fast paced action mixed with intense storytelling set it apart as a must watch series. Another things that set Gundam 00 apart was the top notch high definition animation, which was a first for the Gundam series. Gundam 00 was such a big hit that it is currently in its second season. How does season two stack up? Hit the...
