Only here for the weekend at Shibuya Cast are a pair of two-metre-tall Gundam statues: Gundam Aerial and HG1/144 Gundam Aerial. This special event is celebrating the second season of 'The Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury Expo', which is airing in April.
Check out the video booth for duelling scenes from the show, and next to it is a recreation of a campsite belonging to Guell, one of the most popular characters in the series. There’s also a food truck serving drinks and soups inspired by the characters. And you can even take home an exclusive coaster.
The indoor part of the pop-up event features panels and dioramas that look back on season one. There are illustrations and videos of memorable scenes, accompanied by in-depth descriptions of the main characters. This is the perfect exhibition for those who are just starting to get into the show.
All visitors will receive a special booklet and sticker; there are eight designs but given out at random. The exhibition is free and it's running from 10am to 8pm until March 12.
