"Giant robots are Japanese culture."

Those are fighting words.

Giant robot fight? GIANT ROBOT FIGHT!

Can't wait for more details... I saw the MegaBots robot last year at New York Comic Con but they didn't have it in action, just standing there for people to gawk at, since you can't really have it do it's thing in the middle of the Javits Center with all the crowds around that NYCC brings. It'll be cool to see it in action, though.

I would prefer those robots to be remote controlled (or have their own AI) and use live ammo, flame-throwers and/or misiles and blow their opponents to kingdom come, preferably on a desert of uninhabited island.

The U.S. will build a Jaeger, and Japan will build a Gundam. That would be a battle to remember.

This is great. I just hope no one gets hurt when they punch each other.
