Forging Process of Gundam Statue

We have all seen the Gundam Statue being erected at Kamiigusa Train Station and Keroro Gunso being acting station master. Today we are going to have a look at some photos of the Gundam Statue being made at the bronze forge.

The statue was forged using 1,300 degree Celsius hot molten bronze.

Finally when the statue is completed and shipped, its time to install the statue using a crane.

And there you have it, the 3 meter tall, 20 million yen Gundam statue that took 2 years to complete is now placed at Kamiigusa Train Station, where Sunrise Studio is just minutes away.

I wonder if they will make smaller versions so that I can buy one and place it outside my house. =P

    @ gordon: I think the 2 years included the planning stage and negotiation and whats not.
