Kobe Tetsujin Project Town Gets New Street Lamps

Seems like the Nagata Ward in Kobe prefecture is getting ready to unveil their 18 meters tall Tetsujni 28-Go statue, and they are installing new lights for the streets as well:

A street lamp in Kobe’s Nagata Ward can be seen in the shape of the head of Tetsujin 28-go (Gigantor in English), a manga character by the late Mitsuteru Yokoyama, who hailed from the area. Five of the street lamps line a shopping street near Shin-Nagata Station, and the city is also set to unveil an 18-meter-tall monument to the famous robotic character in a nearby park. (Mainichi)

I think five lamps is too little, they should decorate the entire town with such street lamps so that folks would know Nagata ward is the town of the Kobe Tetsujin.
