I'm guessing you don't know anything about Gundam. The one they are making it move, RX-78 is Canonically 18 meters while the one in Tokyo, Unicorn Gundam is canonically 22 meters. Making it bigger is not making any sense. |

Um, pardon me for perhaps asking the obvious question, but...
If it moves, then isn't it no longer a statue? |

Technically if it moves it's either a large scale Robot or Mecha. It would probably boil down to how they classify it for Vehicle purposes to be frank though. Though now i want to get my qualifications to be a Gundam Pilot. Do you think they have an Intership program for pilots

They want it to light the Olympic flame.
Wel, you got a year and a half to advance robotics to make it work. Get on it. |

I wonder if this thing going be like old style robot shuffle toy. With perhaps a track under the base of the statue shuffling (walking) moving it's arms.
There so much you can do as statue / animatronic thing with it breaking. |
