Gundam Factory Yokohama" Opening Report - Part 3] Gundam models and superalloys that can only be purchased there! Introducing a store full of attractions and an exhibition corner where you can learn all about "Gundam in Motion"!

Building a Walking Gundam!

It has been two years since such a grand project was announced, and now the time has finally come for the Gundam to stand its ground!

On December 19, 2020, "Gundam Factory Yokohama" will finally open in Yokohama's Yamashita Pier. This facility will display a full-scale Gundam 18 meters in height, as well as the "ACADEMY" that exhibits the development process and mechanism of the "moving Gundam," the "GUNDAM Café YOKOHAMA Satellite" where visitors can enjoy local Yokohama cuisine while viewing the Gundam, and "THE GUNDAM FACTORY YOKOHAMA" that sells original goods that can only be purchased at the site. The GUNDAM BASE YOKOHAMA Satellite is a complex facility where visitors can enjoy the "moving Gundam" by selling original goods that can only be purchased locally.

Prior to the opening, a preview for the mass media was held in early December, and Akiba Research Institute's editorial staff, feeling like Denim & Jean, went there to get a sneak preview!

In this final installment, we take a look at "THE GUNDAM BASE YOKOHAMA Satellite" and "ACADEMY".
