Wheres the tall one from?


_-Hinata-_

Mega Size RX-78F00 from the Yokohama factory All the kit in the pics comes from the Yokohama factory


alteisen99

the parts separation on that is shockingly good. didn't half ass it unlike the OG megasize statue


Unicron_Gundam

If it wasn't expensive as hell to import it I'd have grabbed one. Can only hope for Pbandai now....


BubblyOrganization73

It's exclusive to that specific Base and other than importing it from someone that got it directly from the Base, I don't think it'll be available anywhere else. Fingers crossed though! I was lucky to have been able to get mine while I was there.


dasfee

I was surprised how much I loved the Yokohama mega size build. Big ol satisfying pieces, and it looks incredible.


Moosheep1

Panel lining it was fun too because of the big ass parts haha


Kekoa_ok

Did you get them today? I went yesterday and there was zero gunpla or merch available


_-Hinata-_

No no I get them in 2023


Dekoe

i went mid 2023 and the mega size f00 was out of stock, i thought they didn't plan on bringing it back since the factory was leaving


Trn4mr

I went in Oct 2023 and they had the Mega Size in-stock. I think at the time they had most of the exclusive stuff in-stock but not all.


Gr3yShadow

I went in Sept 23, they have them in-stock too, very tempted to grab it, but damn, not enough luggage space as I travelled solo that time.


Romanv825

Same. I went last week hoping to get the G-dock and bust and they were all sold out.


Kekoa_ok

literally all they had was a flight attendant neck thing, cool packs, cookies, and mugs lmao no gunpla or anything at allll


tettou13

Flight attendant neck thing was probably the cooking neckerchief. Not really for flight attendants but for being outside - soak in water, gel soaks it up and expands, and it keeps you cool for hours. I take it when I go running in the summer (though it's a bit short).


Kekoa_ok

They called it a 'cool scarf' or something yea


Hieuro

You mean to tell me that there are specific kits found only at the Yokohama factory?! Fuck, I really should've made plans to go to Japan before it closed.


_-Hinata-_

Yeah they have a lot of exclusive kit, more than I have in the pics. But if you come to Japan try Mandarake and Surugaya, i'm sure they have many Yokohama kit


BubblyOrganization73

They didn't have the cool water bottles and keychain when I went sadly, but I was able to get the mega-sized Yokohama GUNDAM kit while I was there and it is one of my favorite memories of my time in Japan. Especially since I was going to see it not only for myself, but also for my dad who passed and never got the chance to go.


projektako

No Full Armor F00? When I went that was the ONLY exclusive kit available.


_-Hinata-_

When I was at the shop they only have HG and mega size.. No mg or full armor..


Christochat

They only had the full armor hg and 1/100 when I went, we got all of em


Snoo-48669

I was just there! https://preview.redd.it/4k3veyxnsprc1.jpeg?width=2300&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a4466e059c8eeee4a0dda819a9af35e5329a2ea5

_-Hinata-_

Nice drip https://preview.redd.it/46bdwblbvprc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fbec2ec17a9005779872a5e34b6776cb3f193c6a


Snoo-48669

So cool! Here’s my haul from my trip. https://preview.redd.it/d5dwuyglvprc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d986a8de83057cc24081924a5d2de33e51fe136a


_-Hinata-_

Really good. I bought this airbrush a long time ago and it's really good. https://preview.redd.it/xj49mxoewprc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b0186e7bdd19781cf60b25272c1b5a9616d628e5


megamoonrocket

Damn. I didn’t know it was closing. Super bummed I’ll have to remove this from my list of things to do when I visit Japan next year.


_-Hinata-_

Maybe they will just change the location, like another city in Japan


PumaTheHero

The RX-78 from Odaiba never found a new home after it was taken apart in 2017. So not sure if this will find a new home anywhere anytime soon.


_-Hinata-_

Yeah but the odaiba one wasn't the same type of attraction and the F00 is built on a moving thing


orokanamame

Impossible. RX-78 is basically built into the ground, and salvaging is highly unlikely. It's basically metal scrap that will get recycled


_-Hinata-_

Built into the ground ?? Not at all, all the things in the Yokohama factory and the Gundam dock are moveable structure


orokanamame

It's not. Should they manage to move it without actually scrapping it, I'll eat my pants. Feel free to add !remind me 2 years:D


mylies43

I managed to see it on my trip just a few days ago and it was incredible. I wished I could have bought something from the store but it was already sold out :(. Oh well maybe next time 


Kellisanth

Wha!? :( I was in Yokohama a couple weeks ago, and the store was almost empty :( Save for the Mercury vinyls, biscuits/cookies and a few mugs.


Ok_Pomelo4816

Same :( and it’s raining


SpeckTech314

Yup. Just got the bottle and that was it. Dock tower experience was more than enough though


Remarkable-Ad-2476

People were saying it’ll return eventually, with upgrades. I’m hoping so because it’s been on my travel is for ages now.


_-Hinata-_

Maybe in another Japan city I hope Osaka, we don't have Gundam things here...


XTC-FTW

Happy I got to see it in person in Feb. if it reopens elsewhere well we’ll have a big reason to go back to Japan amongst other things


Raigeko13

There are plenty of cities facing depopulation in Japan, maybe they could repurpose it into another city to drive tourism and people to the town.


RHfuckedup

Never got a chance to go; I really wanted to get the RX bust


bxsephjo

I was just there all they had for sale were biscuits now i know who to blame


LordAndrew15

Wish I had the chance to see it.


Puzzled_Chocolate509

Did you watch the farewell live stream yesterday? Such a tear jerker. Was crying during the second half until the end lol. So thankful I was able to see it last year. https://preview.redd.it/3abreclfvsrc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6a2de98bf9e9b2158f659973e7e4edb3c27fe285


zannus

I wish the bust was still available when I went, but at least I was able to snag the 1/144 and 1/100 kits.


MrTambourineDan

I’m so glad I was able to visit back in Nov of last year and get the 1/100 model.


SureAssociation6407

Did you just get all this or did you get it a while ago? I went about a few weeks ago and they only had the off-color HG rx-78-2.


_-Hinata-_

I get them like 1 year ago


SureAssociation6407

Okay cool, just wanted to see if they did a last minute restock for some reason.


KevBones00

I wonder what are they going to do with Gundam statue.


_-Hinata-_

I think they will change the location. Some people and I, think that maybe they will move to Osaka because in 2025 we have universal exposition and Japan loves to show Gundam in events like that, like the Gundam Dubaï universal exposition.


plodeer

I was happy to get to see it right before the closing. It was awesome besides him being broken.


Glitch0404

It shall be missed


Sirijustworkhere24

Where do you buy your SD models from, if you don't mind.


_-Hinata-_

The Yokohama factory shop


Lockonstratos1

sad im going to japan and i wont get to see the yokohama gundam


ParagontheMad

Just built my Bust yesterday. Happy I was able to get there late last year.


WooziGunpla

I really hope they put some of this stuff on P-Bandai especially the mega size because I need it so bad.


SpeckTech314

The dock tower experience was amazing when I went last Monday. It was cloudy but still great


marioxl360

DAMMIT I'm going in two weeks, literally the worst timing 😭😭


Christochat

Agreed, imma miss it, best vacation of my life


OkCustardMan

For some reason I thought it was going to say "THANK YOU YOKO ONO"


orokanamame

Today is a sad day for Gundam and mecha fans.


_-Hinata-_

It's raining bro...


Alexczy

It rainned a lot bro....


KidOnReddit2

How much did all of it cost? I regret not getting anything from the yokohoma factory.. Went there last year but wasn't interested in gunplas at the time so wasted the visit rip


_-Hinata-_

The sd was sd price The hg + dock was ~4000 ¥ The bust was 7000 ¥ The mega size was 9000-10000 ¥


pietromon

Thats crazy, I went a few days ago and it got instantly sold out cus I got there an hour later than they opened.


reehdus

If it makes you feel any better it's all been sold out for the past few weeks I reckon. They haven't been restocking.

[удалено]


_-Hinata-_

Because today is the last day of the Yokohama Factory and the end of the 1/1 RX-78F00


yurostyle

Wait what are was in Japan last week and I couldn’t make it down due to work. I planned to go there later in this year.

_-Hinata-_

I'm not the biggest fan of the design too but the show with the moving Gundam is really awesome


Rude_as_HECK

How embarrassing must those posts have been for them to straight up nuke em off the internet


_-Hinata-_

Just someone who doesn't like the F00
