Gigantor Coming To Kobe, Japan’s Robot Fleet Keeps Growing

Remember a few weeks back when Japan unveiled the uber cool Gundam that they were building? Remember when I prophesied global war in which Asians beat us all silly with giant robot fists of fury? That future is now one BFR (Big Fucking Robot) closer to reality.

A 59 foot version of the Godfather of all Giant Robots, Gigantor, is being built in Kobe’s Wakamatsu Park. Oh, and did I mention, it’s going to be there for forever?

Okay so I added that Iron Fist part, but it’s true…you Asians out there know it.

“If all goes as planned the statue will be finished in September and formally unveiled in October. Also, the statue will be permanently installed, unlike the Gundam statue which will be dismantled in August”

Sheah…Dismantled so you can install the weapon systems and hydraulics.  I’m onto you, Japan! You mesmerize us with your Pocky, Anime, sexy schoolgirls, and geishas, and then you punch us in the dick with a giant robot fist. Well I’m not having it! Good day, Sirs!

DS Out.
