Gundam Cafe’s

To go along with the two Gundam Cafe’s, located in Akihabara and Odaiba, a third Gundam Cafe is scheduled to open in Tokyo Station.  The projected opening date is December 20th.  The cafe will have the same menu as the other two cafe’s, to include Jaburo Coffee and Haro Latte Milk.  The cafe will have Gundam products that will include the two pictured items above, a petit glass and rubber coaster.  So if you are in the area of one of these cafe’s pay them a visit and support the new one when it opens.  It would be another fun stop during your travels.

Gundam That’s Big

If any of your Gundam fan’s have had discussions on how big a Gundam would be this answers their questions.  A life size Gundam that was on display at Odaiba is now being rebuilt at Diver City Tokyo at a complex being built on the island Mitsui Fudosan.  The video below by YouTuber darwinfish105 lets one see how large this statue is with all of the people passing by and taking pictures.  I loved the shots that have the Ferris wheel in the background.  The building will have its grand opening on April 19. Thanks to AnimeNews Network for finding this video.
