Gundam Base

Our kids loved Gunpla modeling and visiting the Gundam Base in Tokyo was high on their bucket list. They were not disappointed. Due to the windy condition, the Unicorn Gundam Statue did not transform that day but my kids still had lots of fun inside the Gundam Base.

Just like what you see in the anime Gundum Build Fighters, people can purchase their favorite models and build right there in the venue. The shop provides not only nippers but also spray paints to perfect your model. It was a fantastic experience for my sons.

There were also displays of the actual tools and mold Bandai used to make the models.

The Gundam Base was located above a shopping mall (DiverCity Tokyo Plaza), which had a amazing food court. A family can easily spend the whole day there.
