Visiting Odaiba Gundam site today

  • Then and now: The 18-metre RX-78-2 Gundam was first unveiled in 2009 for the series' 30th anniversary. It was moved to Shizuoka, came back to Odaiba in 2012 and was removed in March 2017.
  • Then and now: A 19.7-metre Unicorn Gundam took its place outside DiverCity Tokyo Plaza in September 2017. Its last day on display was 31 August 2026.
  • What's next: Bandai has not announced a new life-size Gundam, and there is no guarantee one would go in Odaiba.
  • Getting there: DiverCity Tokyo Plaza is a 5-minute walk from Daiba Station (Yurikamome Line) or Tokyo Teleport Station (Rinkai Line).

Gundam, Odaiba

The 1/1 scale model of the RX78 Gundam robot at Odaiba (お台場) has created a large amount of attention. Japanese and international travelers in their thousands have found their way to Shiokaze Park in Odaiba to view the Gundam which lights up and gives off steam at night.
