The exhibition starts today and will be until 26 June. There’s stuff to do besides looking at Gundams though; Kunio Okawara, the designer of the Gundams you watch and collect, will be coming down on 6 June to meet fans and give a talk.
For the uninitiated, Okawara is the first man in Japan to be a professional mechanic designer — one who designs various mecha-related characters in animation.

Admission is free, and the exhibition will be at B2 of Takashimaya Shopping Centre for the entire month of June, so why not go?
You can’t fly the giant robots though.
