Gundam News: Gundam Front GFT 1/1 Scale Strike Freedom Bust Is Actually A Full 1/1 Scale Statue?!
According to a recent news post from gundam portal site Gundam.Info, they reported the life-sized 1/1 Scale Strike Freedom Bust, which is currently on display inside Gundam Front Tokyo (Diver City, Odaiba, Japan), is actually a full size 1/1 Scale Strike Freedom Gundam statue. Similiar to the 1/1 Scale RX-78-2 Gundam standing just outside of Gundam Front Tokyo, in front of Diver City shopping center. Gundam.Info goes as far as to mention the source of this news was from a reliable source. It is said that spectators can only view the upper torso, while the statue from waist down is hidden under the floor below.
Is this an April Fool's joke or real news?
Well, if you ask us. This is definitely an April fool joke. Anyone who has been to Gundam Front Tokyo knows that it is located on the 7th floor of Diver City shopping center. Why would anyone build a full size 1/1 scale Strike Freedom Gundam statue all the way up there, with hardly anyway to bring it to ground level without dismantling it first. It is just too inefficient. So we take this latest news post with a huge grain of salt.
According to the Gundam.Info's article, the 2nd half of the statue is allegedly hidden under the floor below (Speculation Image?) LOL...
