The popular mecha-themed franchise, Gundam, is now getting its own theme park. Anime News Network reports that Bandai has put up the money for a miniature theme park called Gundam Front Tokyo in Diver City Tokyo, right next door to the 59 feet/18 meters tall Gundam statue. The park attractions include a dome theater for immersive video, displays of rare production materials, archives on future and old Gundam projects, displays of models, and “photospots” to take pictures with Gundam characters. Appropriately themed souvenir shops and a cafe will open alongside the theme park. Diver City is located on the artificially created Odaiba Island. Park admission will run 1000 yen for adults, roughly $13 US dollars.
