The mall’s Gundam Base store will host a temporary art and animation exhibit celebrating all things Gundam (especially SEED) and sell exclusive merchandise. Unveiling the life-size Freedom Gundam accompanied another part of the Gundam SEED Project Ignited lineup: “GUNDAM docks at Shanghai”, a limited-time promotional event centered around the statue’s home: Mitsui Shopping Park LaLaport Shanghai. Youtube channel New China TV also aired a brief special with some clips of the statue under construction.
Users on Chinese video sharing site Bilibili captured footage of the event. Like the full-scale Unicorn Gundam statue in Odaiba, Japan, the life-size Freedom Gundam features limited articulation, as well as a periodic light show and presentation to accompany its activation. The statue itself stands 18 meters (about 60 feet) tall. The first full-scale Gundam statue to be built outside of Japan, the “life-size” Freedom Gundam was publicly unveiled on in Shanghai, China. The largest and most concrete announcement served as the very venue to launch Gundam SEED Project Ignite from: A full-scale articulated replica of the ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam. The global initiative introduced a handful of new Gundam SEED-related projects to the fold, including a new feature film, a new manga spinoff, and a new video game. Bandai has primed the catapults and launched a new wave of announcements related to its Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Project Ignite program.
