How would you like to write your name with this Gundam Pen?

Confident about your Gundam model-making skills? Then you may stand a chance to get employed! Bitec Global Japan, a Tokyo-based artificial teeth maker, has just introduced this method of job application testing for this year’s college graduates. The applicants had to not just build them, but paint them in three or more colours within a 3-hour time limit.

Japanese have yet again found creative ways to do certain things =D. Well I think this will be a real treat for job applicants who are Gundam fans XD. I have never built …

The 1/1 scale Gundam might not be there anymore, but a 30cm model of the life-sized Gundam is available.

The statue has a weight of 4 kilograms(wow!) and is 30cm tall.
Out Spring 2010, yours for 81,900 yen. You can buy around 9-10 1/8 scale figurines with the money.. The cost of this statue is definitely huge, even though it’s a miniature model T_T. I wonder what it is made of? That it could actually weigh up to 4 kg?

Not as huge as the 1/1 scale Gundam, but this Gundam Statue weight is extremely heavy for its size! It’s at a height of 4 meters and has a weight of 10 tons.

It was created about 2 years ago by the owner of a stone sculpting business and has become a local landmark.
Folks who are in Japan may want to consider going to the city of Yasu in Saga Prefecture to view the Stone Gundam Statue yourself! Awesome, if you miss the 1/1 scale Gundam in Japan this year, …

Finally managed to visit Shibuya246’s site for coverage of the Gundam Wedding!

The wedding was held on 25 August 2009.

The couple was chosen out of over 500 entries by T&G wedding planners.
Both Bride and Groom have been married previously. They said that Gundam had been a great influence on them and had brought their family close together. When their new born daughter was born six months they named her Seira from the Gundam series.

Do check out more pictures of the ceremony over at Shibuya246!
I like the fact that the groom actually …

Having a headache today, couldn’t think of a particular seiyuu I want to feature. I finally decided to go along with the anime series Hayate no Gotoku(as I’m watching Season 1 now, better late than never =D), and yes, Rie Tanaka voices Maria the maid O_O. I didn’t know that!

Gundam Unicorn will be a 6 episode OVA series released in Spring of 2010. It is based on the first two volumes of the Gundam Unicorn Novel. The story is a sequal taking place 3 years after Mobile Suit Gundam: Char’s Attack.
I had seen news of this pop of several times in the past month or two, but its so hard for me to take a Gundam with the word “UNICORN” in its title seriously xP
Here are some previews for those that are interested:
This is the only Trailer I can …

Sony has been hinting the new PS3’s arrival for quite some time now, but yesterday they finally let the cat out of the bag at German Gamescon. The PS3 Slim will  be released September 1st for an acceptable $299.
The PS3 Slim itself is said to be a third lighter than the original, draw a third less power, and will come with a 120GB HDD. Other features will be the same as the soon to be PS3 Cheap.

Unfortunately for those with mountain high collection of PS2 games, no backwards compatibility, doubt …

Despite it’s the Summer Season in Japan, otakus not giving up. Comiket 76 just started yesterday and the crowds look scary, but I wouldn’t mind all the pushing and stuff just to attend Comiket myself.

A youtube clip from Fuji TV News show about the 1/1 Scale Gundam in Odaiba Park and Comiket.

The Code Geass Cosplayer in the clip is awesome. I know he must be sweating profusely inside, but he’s still cosplaying there… Wow O_O. Would you do that if you’re a cosplayer? Stand in the heat all day long …
