LOL! This robot thinks it can defend the town of Tokyo! Hilarious.  I love that it’s a giant robot.  I’m mildly tiffed that it’s a false idol, but what can you do, huh internet?  Jeez… I mean if i really cared I’d smite it.  You know.  But what can ya do these days, right? thedailywhat: IRL Mecha of the Day: Following fast in Tokyo’s footsteps, the Japanese city of Kobe has erected a mecha defender of its own, the veteran bot Gigantor, which stands 59.06 feet tall — narrowly defeating Tokyo’s 59-foot-tall Gundam statue. Somehow I don’t see this One-upmechaship ending well for humanity. Get up close (but not too close) here. [via.]
