Yes they look cool and but isn't this a little bit excessive?

I would be too tempted to paint the platinum one.

Agreed. It even puts that life-size Rei Ayanami doll mentioned a while back to shame. Yeesh. |

I think some super duper hardcore fans would get it
Maybe an otaku wedding present to the Rei Ayanami life size figure?

HAHAHAHAHA seriously though, i wouldn't be surprised if people actually bought them. remember Gundam is still huge there, and rich collectors will get one simply because they can. i'll tell you this though: i sure as hell wouldn't be showing it around to people. it would be locked up tight. 
do you think it's heavy? |

Where do I buy that doll?? 
Anyway, The audience that grew up on Gundam are now older and have more money to spend. Who was it that went on the space flight dressed as Char? what I am trying to say is that there is someone, somewhere that will buy this. |

For that money, I could get an Aston Martin Vanquish, Ferrari 599 or Scaglietti. Talk about pricey.

When I think of a Gundam Model with a price like that I'm thinking, life sized, fully functional and able to carry around a full grown adult. But I suppose something like that would be very impractical to try to market and would be more like 30 Billion Yen.

Daisuke Enomoto never went up. He failed a test or two and was rejected. |

But the Gundam won't cost nearly as much to operate or insure :-p -t |
