A full-size Gundam robot, standing 18 meters tall and weighing 25 metric tons, made its first public performance in Yokohama port, Japan, on September 21, bringing fans' childhood fantasies to life.

It can move its arms, legs and torso with ease.

This replica is by far the most true-to-size Gundam robot ever made since the series premiered.

Fans will be able to get up close and personal with their anime robot hero from a viewing deck in October.
