Here's an actual, life-sized, moving Gundam in Japan.

It's gone now, sadly. I did manage to pop by in 2023 to see it.

I had to laugh at the terrible initial planning for it - its original run was supposed to be December of 2020 to March of 2022. "Let's open up this awesome, massive tourist attraction right in the depths of the pandemic, then close it just before the country opens up so no one outside of Japan gets to see it!".

Fortunately they wound up extending it (twice) and finally closed it down last year, so people did actually get a chance to visit before it shut down.
