Life size robot of Tetsujin 28 set for Shin-Nagata Kobe October 2009

With all the latest hype of the Tokyo life size Gundam now Shin-Nagata Kobe gets their very own Japanese life size robot of Tetsujin 28!!!!
Tetsujin 28 statue how awesome is this? another life size robot!!!! Japan is so sick instead of making status and monuments of political icons or historians they make statues of manga and anime robots! Japan is so far in the future its ridicules! Japan is like a real life transformer movie! Any way the Tetsujin will be 18 meters tall and is still under construction with a completion date of October 4, 2009. Cost of the monument is estimated 135,000,000 yen (1.4 million USD) with 45,000,000 yen of that being paid by the city of Kobe the rest by donations.
