Gundam at Odaiba, August 2009

There is an artificial Island in Tokyo Bay hosting a 1:1 scaled Gundam. This robot is promoting Tokyo as a candidate city for Olympic Games 2016 along with the Green Tokyo Project. It is eco since it's powered by an array of solar batteries closeby.
At the beginning of every hour the music starts playing and the Gundam is moving it's head, flashing lights and blowing steam. In the middle of every hour it just moves it's head while a deep voice is telling about the importance of saving out ecology.
Anyway it's quite an impressive landmark for July and August before it's taken apart.
