I was there last month, it was amazing. Can't wait to come back and go to the newest Gundam base. Just started this hobby but starting with the simple builds first, the more detailed ones look a little daunting to me.
Awesome video, thank you for sharing good amount detail of facility. As I was watching I couldn't help but realize the workers. The amount of time to dust clean every single piece in that facility has to be insane amount of hours to do. Kudos to them let's not overlook that. Must have been amazing to see a $730m project in motion.
Thank you for the awesome video, a little sad that I missed Amora's gundam when I was last there and the Haru popcorn. It was amazing to see this again.
I was able to hit 3 of the GUndam places. GUndam Odaiba, Gundam Factory Yokohama and Gundam base Fukuoka. WIsh I had more itme at Fukuoka. THere was a little cafe there with a screen that makes it look like you are inside one the Side satelittes.
I recommend going to book off super bazaar. They have a big selection of gunplas. Not to mention you can find a bunch of other stuff like books, mangas, games, CDs, figures, cards, etc, etc. I went to the one in machida, tokyo but im sure you can find other ones too.
I was in Japan at the end of May. I went to Gundam Factory but unfortunately they closed down for a week :'( But at least I was able to see Unicorn in Odaiba :)
It looks like you truly enjoyed yourself on this trip. It also sounds like you stayed under budget this trip, at least when it came to buying things. I do wonder about the shipping\baggage cost though. Just remember you can always refill that pink blob container with good popcorn.
I really need to visit the factory when I next get back over there. Although it could be dangerous for the old wallet and practicality... Had enough "fun" trying to work out how to get the PG RX-0 that I bought back home to the UK the last time we visited in 2018... Still not finished my build of that yet... Currently trying to order some spare parts, not an easy thing to do in the UK...
So awesome to see the displays, I appreciate the sharing, I'd like to go but school and work has me busy, fun to take a peek at the history of gundams and gunpla, your trips look like a lot of fun too.
When I went to the Factory in Yokohama, they were all sold out of all the souvenir popcorn and drink containers. I really wanted a pink-chan to take home.
i went to the gundam factory and saw the moving rx-78f00 but unfortunately that was on my last day in japan so i couldnt go to the unicorn since i hadnt gone to akihabara yet still super awesome nonetheless
thank you a lot for the tour, & sharing some good stuff inside but I must say that diorama set up was unreal and the light effects on the Aerial Gundam and the Other MS together was sick ! I gotta study how they set that up, that would look wicked cool effect glowing in my room with the lights off at night
Too bad they got rid of the cafe and trailer at Gundam Base ☹️ I still have a sakura-themed Gundam Unicorn drink bottle from when I bought a bubble tea there
Since you are kinda a big deal UA-cam star. Do you ever get recognized when you show up to a Gundam Base/Factory? I'm sure your security detail clears the way for you ahead of time. I was just there for all of June and went to both places also. Watching the video brings back memories. Thanks for sharing.
Is anyone missing the gunpla spark? I use to love building and see all the new kits coming and being excited for them. Now its like something is missing, a bit a feeling empty. Still want to go here one and see the life size gundam, bucket list. Thanks for the video Meli!!
Watching the building-sized gundam move around gave me goosebumps
thank you for the tour, one of the best tour i've even seen, other vloggers just do some sneak peak but this video shows a lot
Glad you enjoyed it!
the first song in the background... ohh so much memories :)
Thank you for being so generous, for making this video and sharing with us!
We meet again gentlemen of culture. Lets have a vote ! Meli with or without her glasses 🤓, im saying with 👍.
With! She’s rocking the sexy, librarian, or nerdy, hot girl look
Those dioramas are amazing! Seeing that life sized Gundam move is mind boggling cool! I can't wait to go to Japan!!! Waiting on my passport...
I can see why you feel so inspired for wanting to make a diorama
@ 5:16 oh yeah those "gundams"...are looking great🤩
Yes, I saw those twins as well.

Cool, I was just there. Wish I could have seen the life-size Godzilla!

Oh my! I was there at Gundam Factory Yokohama last week! I so so so hope to meet and take a photo with you! (lovely)
As a Gundam fan going to Japan in 3 weeks, I am going to study this whole video!
heading in october myself. I'll be hitting up these places as well. Have fun on your trip.
21 July for me.

Cool giant Gundam style Robots! Thanks.

Luv that headless Rx78 final shot up
Really badass how you got to travel to Japan and witness such cool things. You must feel really fortunate Meli.
21:17 OMG 😲 😮😮 That thing is huge.
Nice store, I would go broke for sure..and the video at the end of that gundam moving its pretty cool.
I got to visit Gundam Base and Unicorn Gundam in Odaiba back in 2018. Very cool. Of course, I hadn't seen much Gundam at that time....
It’s soooo cool !!
Thank you for sharing ❤
the WFM Dioramas are so sick!
Thank you so much for documenting all this! Cause I’ll never see it before it closes
Thank you for the nice tour Meli. Hope to go there someday too. Keep safe
Thank you for the tour! :) I'll work hard to get to live it myself... aaaahhh its soooo coooooool!
So great
Can't wait to see your diorama, I know it will be breathtaking.
Thank you for the tour. I went to Yokohama for New Years. I'll probably try to go to Odaiba next year.
Awesome video, very detailed and informative.
Awesome vlog!!👍
I was there back in April, it is such a cool store! We may have had to buy an extra suitcase to bring back stuff we bought.
The Alpha One Jackets are awesome.
Haha you finally meet the actual size Gundam, that's great😊🤞👍
Thank you for making this fun and insightful vlog!
Cool. Someday I want to go to Japan to see these exhibitions.
A robot building Gundam is AWESOME!!!!
Thank you for the tour, very cool!

I didn't know Qubeley existed prior to watching this video. It made me buy the P-Bandai version and it's now one of my favourite kits
Odaiba!! I miss that, visited that place when I was not yet into Gundam (2019).
I really need to visit the factory when I next get back over there. Although it could be dangerous for the old wallet and practicality...

Waiting for men of culture comments cheers

we are coming there in 2 months...in sept..got my suitcase ready to bring back some stuff
Whoa, that's a lot of Gundam.
Thank you for sharing with us
God bless Gundam in Japan 🇯🇵
YOOOOO I want to go see this! if only we had one in the US (we need a Gundam Revival out here the way they try hard to keep Transformers Relevant xD)
I miss building gundam. Love the PGs.
When I went to the Factory in Yokohama, they were all sold out of all the souvenir popcorn and drink containers. I really wanted a pink-chan to take home.
Nice camera work! no motion sickness, Thanks🙂
Gundam heaven, it is a beautiful place.
Awesome! @20:47 and maximum playback speed, gundam movements are still slow though.
Gundam unicorn statue in Tokyo! Bummer that it's closed 😢😢😢😢
Nope, is not.
One of those “Chewie, we’re home!” moments
i went to the gundam factory and saw the moving rx-78f00 but unfortunately that was on my last day in japan so i couldnt go to the unicorn since i hadnt gone to akihabara yet
still super awesome nonetheless
So cool rx 78, love you meli ❤
Damn! The twins are out today.
Pretty cool!
that gundam on the beginning are so BIG
thank you a lot for the tour, & sharing some good stuff inside but I must say that diorama set up was unreal
and the light effects on the Aerial Gundam and the Other MS together was sick ! I gotta study how they set
that up, that would look wicked cool effect glowing in my room with the lights off at night
I remember going to the Gundam Factory wanting to buy a really expensive pair of gloves. Ended up not buying them, but now I'm regretting it.
Looks like it was an awesome trip!!👍😁🥰
02:49 the reflection of the flickering light in the glass panel looks like the beam rifle is about to be fired.
Just got back from my trip rn the Gundam unicorn store inside the mall was insane
Thank you for sharing, always wanted to go there, so i know i must go now :)
Too bad they got rid of the cafe and trailer at Gundam Base ☹️ I still have a sakura-themed Gundam Unicorn drink bottle from when I bought a bubble tea there
I went in march right after they announced the extension of the yokohama gundam, none of the food trucks or cups were open and sold out 😞
Good day my fellow gentleman and ladies of culture ... we have been truly blessed and more today 🥹🥹🥹what a great day it has become .. cheers 🍷🍷
Here, here🍻
Well come to Japan Meli ♪
😍👍 I watch your videos every time. thank you for sharing✨
Since you are kinda a big deal UA-cam star. Do you ever get recognized when you show up to a Gundam Base/Factory? I'm sure your security detail clears the way for you ahead of time.
I was just there for all of June and went to both places also. Watching the video brings back memories. Thanks for sharing.
Never heard of her.
I went to the Gundam base in Odaiba island it was amazing 🤩😁
Dearest Men of Culture I'm the first to comment and I'm amazed on the beauty of those 2 big Gundams!
welcome Japan!
The moving life size Gundam was cool. Wish they did that with Godzilla.
3:04 I legit thought that was an MG Messala for a second. Didn't know the HG was that big.
Great vlog Meli!The factory looks cool!
We gather once again
holy crap 20:47 ! so awesome
Gundam Forever ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I was there last week too ;-). Didn’t do the Factory as mist reviews said its not worth it.
Awesome!
Man, I hope you meant that popcorn ball was 2600 yen and not 26000, because ~$185 for plastic ball of popcorn and a lanyard is bonkers!
I really want the Hello Kitty Gunpla for some reason...
That Gundam from Mercury you were looking for, I see a lot at target. I'm surprised they sold put in Japan...
I still can’t go to Japan so thank you for this video. Fall in love with that Crystal Gundam 😍 Oh Noooo 💰 😅
Bravo! I went to see the Yokohama Gundam in early April, it was really touching and striking!!!
1:50
HOLY! Is that... Eternal Wind? I literally haven't heard or thought of that song in over 15 years now... T_T
Was waiting for this!!!!
Is anyone missing the gunpla spark? I use to love building and see all the new kits coming and being excited for them. Now its like something is missing, a bit a feeling empty. Still want to go here one and see the life size gundam, bucket list. Thanks for the video Meli!!
Well you better hurry bro, their taking it down in march or april of 2024
I liked the strict G Hawaiian shirts too, but didn’t feel like spending $250+
haaaaaaa que bien felicitaciones, eso es lo maximo que un fan de los Gundam aspira ver!!!
i come for gundam, it looks so plump
Meli keep up the good work.
Gundam fan here.
Nice front, as always..😂
Man seeing the 1:1 unicorn in disrepair made me very sad, i saw it back when it was still brand new and they'd play its theme when "transforming"
They still holding "shows" on the Unicorn, few times each day.
