The overseas expansion of the full scale Gundam statue project has been decided! The full scale statue of a Freedom Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED series will be erected in Shanghai, China in 2021.
It looks like that the model will be following the blueprints of the RG Freedom Gundam model - more information will be added as soon as they have released the final structure of the model.
The decision to expand the 1:1 scale Gundam project was announced during the Gundam China Project presentation "Gundam G-Kai 2020" that was distributed to public on Saturday, July 11, 2020.
It looks like that the model will be following the blueprints of the RG Freedom Gundam model - more information will be added as soon as they have released the final structure of the model.

ReplyDeleteSummarising this entire post/decision in one word...
Deletedem feels XD
DeleteTrue lmao. " Freedom " in china ? im laughing so hard lol . Guys do u remember a doctor was arrested for warning China about the coronavirus ?
Deletetruth
Deletereally china ? i would like to see it when the build is done
ReplyDeleteOut of all the words in the English language I could use. I don't think I would have enough to express how ironic this will be next year.
ReplyDeleteA not so subtle middle finger from Japan to China
ReplyDeleteThis is hilarious.
ReplyDeleteWay to make themselves even more unappealing
ReplyDeleteBruh
ReplyDeleteSo basically I will never see this masterpiece in person since it's in a place I personally do not like to go to.
ReplyDeletesurprised it isn't something like the Strike
ReplyDeleteFreedom Gundam in unfree China. Heh.
ReplyDeleteThat's freakin hilarious, freedom (gundam) just stand where that has no freedom lol
ReplyDeleteOf all things they had to put Freedom there, titans gundam mk II would be more fitting for them.
ReplyDeleteWhat, the Gundam Mk II Titans colors was too on the nose?
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts exactly.... would be better in HK
ReplyDeleteLol! Should've been Calamity or Forbidden Gundam XD
ReplyDeleteThey had to know what they were doing when they thought this up
ReplyDeleteLol, The one and only Freedom China will ever get.
ReplyDeleteNot sure why Japan thought that was a good idea, or at least didn't see the irony of giving them the statue of a mecha named "Freedom", to a Communist country that oppresses its citizens.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they see the irony and its their middle finger under the guise of a statue.
Deleteas funny as this is to send the freedom gundam to china lol why the freedom gundam ~.~ i hate it and the pilot to the very core of my being and so many other better gundams could be there instead
ReplyDeleteLemme guess. You're a hardcore UC fan? *eyeroll*
DeleteFreedom Gundam in China would end up Bandai being sued at the end.
ReplyDeleteHave no idea if bandai is doing it to praise or to ironize the Communist China LoL.
By the way, strike freedom maybe more suitable for China: They Strike anyone fight for Freedom.
ReplyDeleteThis Gundam would have been better for Hong Kong but this choice is also perfectly hilarious and honestly was probably intentionally ironic.
ReplyDeleteAt least China will have one Freedom now.
Calamity Gundam would be a much better fit, even better if it is placed in Wuhan.
ReplyDeleteFirst non-UC 1:1 statue and first out of Japan, as a gundam fan I'm happy that the culture expands.
ReplyDeleteWaiting for Infinite Justice to land in my town.
They should send a Real Gundam to destroy the communist party!
ReplyDeleteIt will look beautiful in Shanghai
ReplyDeletelol
