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 …

So how many of you here has built a Gundam before? You know how much hard work it takes right? So imagine a scenario where your suspect your mom wants to throw it all away. Does that justify attempted suicide by trying to burn down your house with you inside? Apparently this man in Kasai city seems to think so.

Police in Kasai City near Kobe have arrested a 29-year-old factory worker named Yoshifumi Takabe on suspicion of burning down his own home on Sunday. The suspect reportedly doused his room …

Sure you heard of the famous 1/1 scale Gundam in Odaiba, but did you knew of the chibi Gundam Statue in front of Bandai’s Headquarters in Asakusa? ^^

Well he needs some love and attention too XD. Can’t blog about his 1/1 Gundam brother all the way! LOL.
From a comment over at muza-chan, it looks like:
That cute little guy was their mascot for the mini-Gundam Festa in Ikebukuro last summer. He was outside the inner doors to the Toyota Amlux building for a few days leading up to the festa, and …

So, according to HobbyMedia, Cup Noodles from Nissin will come with a 1/380 Gunpla, on 31st August, the last day in which the Giant 1/1 Gundam in Odaiba will be standing.

These CUP NOODLES MINI GUNPLA from Nissin will be released on 31th August: the last day of the 1/1 Gundam in Odaiba. It’s quite ironic since the Gunpla contained are in 1/380 scale: the smallest Gundam model kits ever produced! There are 4 different mini model kits: Gundam RX78, the DOM, CHAR ZAKU II (red) and ZAKU II (green).
There are …

The 1/1 scale RX-78 Gundam opened officially yesterday, July 11th 2009. It will be on display for 2 months at Odaiba’s Shiokaze Park. Fans of Gundam should really make a trip down there to see the magnificent 1/1 scale Gundam. I know I will!

Fret not if you are unable to make your way down to Japan personally to view the 50-foot-tall Gundam, you can view him digitally from Japan Playstation Home.
You just need a Japan PSN account in order to do so ;). The Gundam can be viewed from July …

And.. The Gundam is ready. Sorta.
Just weeks ago I posted the awesome gundam legs, and yes, the entire gundam is almost done. It has a movable head and 50 lights on it! All that is left now is for the mist emitting from it? 18m tall gundam is awesome. I want to see it too! ><

The statue marks the 30th anniversary of the first anime series in the Mobile Suit Gundam space war anime franchise.
The statue will be officially on display for two months starting on July 11. It is …

Bluesnow pointed this out to me a few days ago. Gundam legs!

Work has started on the “life-sized” Gundam. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the mecha anime/manga/toy/video game franchise, an 18-meter-tall (59-foot-tall) Gundam statue will be erected in Tokyo this July.
If only such events were held around the world, well.. Gundam is quite famous everywhere. Even anime fans here in Singapore who do not really support anime (tsk) do know of the mighty Gundams XD.
The only memorable gundam model I saw was a human-sized Gundam Exia in Singapore last year(excluding …

A trip down to KKnM today which resulted in mass poisoning. Also this post wouldn’t have happened if not for my dear friend, Mr Optic XD. He was the one who really poisoned me to buy all these >_>.
