Gundam Crisis original 1:1 scale attraction at Fuji-Q Amusement Park

"Gundam Crisis" is the 1st life sized 1:1 scale full-on RX-78-2 Gundam built for the enjoyment of the general public. Posed lying on its back for maintenance, sporting a very MG OYW sculpt with a mat finish weathered paint job. The game involves a group of participants in a race to seek out several scattered docking points for your Gundam PDA's registration. You get to run around it and observe this sleeping giant from a high vantage raised walkway. The first to find'm-all gets to go on a mission to pilot the Gundam! Look out for several "exclusive" on-site store merchandise including an MG RX-78-2 ver Gundam Crisis which is just the OYW version re-boxed (tell me if there are other reasons to pick this up). Also a Metal Composite GFF RX-78-2 (again in unique packaging).
This attraction has been open since 2007, being just one of the many attractions to be found at the Fuji-Q amusement park Japan. Gundam Crisis is still running at the time of posting but I do wonder how much longer it will be kept. I hope it's still there next time I'm visiting for our hike up Mount Fuji. Junior was a little too young for us to enjoy all there was on offer there (hard-core roller coasters are a major feature of this park). Pls Pls Pls still be there when we are next here again...

Gundam Crisis attraction Skip to 1:49 for the good stuff to start!
