Not huge enough to pilot, but still darn huge! This 5-foot (1.5m) tall 1/12 scale RX-78-2 Gundam is all yours if you could bear to part with just 350,000 Yen (~US$3,050).
For those unfamiliar with Gundam (doh!), it is one of the most wildly popular anime series featuring mechas. And the Gundam featured here is one of the earliest designs.
It weighs 77 pounds (35kg), has 14 moving parts, includes a gun and a shield, comes with sound effects, and even has an infrared remote. How cool is that?
For those who prefer the bad guys, there’s also a 1/12 scale MS-06S ZAKU II version.
According to Bandai, it is scheduled for release on December 16 this year. Cutesy Japanese girl not included.
