Ah, Gundam! Everybody loves them! Yes, even if you don’t know what they are, I’m sure you love them. Take me as an example, I never read a single Gundam Manga, I’ve never watched a single Gundam Anime, and yet, I’m a fan!

There is one problem with Gundam though, it’s pretty hard to have one at home:

Well if you think that, think again. Apparently, you don’t know Japanese people too well. You know, Japanese people, the ones for whom the word “practical” is not an abstract concept, like it can be in France and many other countries. So, yes, you can count on Japanese people to create Gundam that will fit even in the tiniest of apartments:

    1. I know what you mean. As I said, I’m not exactly a real Gundam fan, I don’t collect things, and I have about 10 of them now (those three were just from my first trip). 🙂

    1. I guess they’re really part of the culture.
      There are things in Japan that I find interesting and/or fun and my wife is kinda embarrassed about it and she has to explain me that “no, this is lame and if that was in France, you’d be ashamed of people who like this”, but as far as pocket gundams go, she has no problem with it. I see that as a good sign. 🙂
