What other travelers are saying about Unicorn Gundam Statue
This statue is awesome!! It even lights up at night and changes it's helmet configuration randomly into the white unicorn helmet. The mall and Gundam store inside is also super cool. Must visit the Gundam store on the top floors of the mall!
The Unicorn Gundam Statue is a life-sized replica of the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam from the anime series 'Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn'. It is located in Tokyo, Japan, at DiverCity Tokyo Plaza on Odaiba Island.
The Unicorn Gundam Statue stands at approximately 19.7 meters (about 64.6 feet) tall, making it an impressive sight for visitors.
Yes, the statue can transform between its two modes: Unicorn Mode and Destroy Mode. This transformation involves changes in its appearance and lighting effects, which occur several times throughout the day.
The Unicorn Gundam Statue was officially unveiled on September 24, 2017, replacing the previous RX-78-2 Gundam statue that stood in its place.
The site often hosts various events and activities related to the Gundam franchise. There are also light shows and performances that take place around the statue, enhancing the experience for fans and tourists alike.
The real thing is incredibly grand and spectacular. The details on the robot are meticulously captured, making it look like it stepped straight out of the anime. The highlight is when the robot transforms from Unicorn Mode to Destroy Mode, which is incredibly cool and amazing. I recommend watching it at night when the lights are turned on and the images are displayed on the building's walls. The light and sound show is truly impressive.
It's just an awesome experience finally to see the almost 20m life-sized RX-0 Unicorn Gundam, and it transforms between "Unicorn Mode" and "Destroy Mode"! (was hoping for more action, eg flexing it's fingers 😉). Would be nicer at night with the lighting effects.
It’s awesome! I totally feel like a kid. They have a store full of amazing souvenirs, you can’t miss.
Also you can collect a card to stamp, and if you have time to go around can have all in color. Just brilliant.
The shopping itself also is wonderful, totally worth it.
A great place to visit in the evening we went around 7pm the show gave me chills being a long time fan. The 7th floor shop had lots of items. You need to go up to the 6th floor then escalator up to the Gundam base. I ended up finding a hanten I'd be looking for the whole trip
