South Korea's Giant Robot Statue to Dwarf Japan's

[Nouw]

North Korea? The people who were furiously building Nuclear Missiles are now building Giant Robots? I'm slightly worried...

I will say this in the most polite way possible.

It says "SOUTH KOREA" Not "NORTH KOREA" God I feel so pissed when people confuse the two.

OT:Yay my very own country making giant robots. All we know need is a giant catapult. Take that N.Korea!

 

[IamQ]

Let's just hope that Korea doesn't destroy their's like japan is going to do (Why would you do that?!)

 

[Ironic]

Thus the robot wars have begun...

what we need is a giant space cruiser that transforms into a giant robot maid. Then the giant robo maid can use her vacuum to suck up all their other robots.

My men will have it ready soon...

Give it a century or two and an apocalypse, and an effeminate teenage boy with ridiculous hair will be climbing in this statue, thoroughly confused as to why it's not moving.

 

[Proteus214]

I hate to say it, but...we're sooooo fucked.

In a few short years the movie Robot Jox will be a reality.

 

[AvsJoe]

I think Japan will look at it, sigh, and go "Alright, alright, we'll make a functional one. Give us a few years."

And when that happens, France will instantly surrender and the US will piss their pants in fear. And the Robot Wars will begin...

Actually, here's a useless but (I think) funny bit of info about what I said.

When I wrote that statement above, I kept imagining an old (really old) Japanese man saying it... in a thick, stereotypical old jewish man accent.

Old. Jewish Man. Accent.

Coming from a Japanese man.

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when I imagined that.

Dude.

DUDE.

DUDE.

We're falling behind! I demand that we build a 380-foot-tall Megas XLR, stat!

Also, this seems like a good time to promote the most awesome usergroup ever [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/view/Escapist-Mecha-Fans].

1. Megas XLR > Life

2. I love how South Korea would lovingly build a pointless statue rather then feed and shelter their homeless... and yes, if we Americans build random BS I jump on it too (Do we REALLY need another friggin baseball stadium!?)

oh.. and watch out, Gundam's creator will call this evil, because the money could be spent feeding orphans, promoting cancer research, or increasing details on his animated robots!

The Americans won't piss their pants... They will make a 5inch tall one that can blow up half the planet, then we will end up rebuilding half the planet, and some idiot on youtube will claim that the destruction of half the planet was carpet bombing and that miniature earth shattering robots don't exist. Also.. ours will play Meatloaf songs.. and you cannot deny that that alone would lead to the defeat of the Japanese working gundam.

It starts out as just fun and games.
Who can build the biggest Robot?
Who can build the strongest robot?
Who can build the fastest robot?
Who can build the smartet robot?
Who can build the deadliest robot?
Who can build the strongest, fastest, smartest, deadliest robot?

And you know what happens next?
Robot Apocaplyse!

Lets call Adult Swim and maybe they make a kick ass show called Ro-ocalypse!

A cartoon about the host of "Dirty Jobs"?

I loved that show!

Why did they cut it!

WHY?!?!?!?! It was actually funny, I really liked it...

OT: Crazy Huge robots are crazy huge. And possibly crazy. Did I mention this is crazy? I mean 364 feet. Yes the Giant Gundam is awesome, but this is overkill. You just know the Japanese will retaliate with something, and eventually the robots will be poking into space with their heads.

Although that would be a pretty impressive view...

 

[SnowCold]

The most Israel can build is a 3 foot robot.

With bought parts for esembeling.

And only after giving up and asking our dad for help.

Sounds pretty g-

We need a 500ft Bender robot.

He's 30% iron, 40% titanium, 40% zinc, 40% lead, 40% Dolomite and 40% luck.

NOW GET TO WORK, YOU MEATBAGS!

Oh. Oh, shit. Which one do we do? WHICH ONE DO WE DO?!

 

[DrunkWithPower]

No, no, no, you're thinking too small! We must build a giant robot on the moon!

Let's just paint the moon to look like Voltorb from Pokemon and say we built it.... they'll never know.

I second this, we need the best giant robot from New Jersey. Why is he cooler than any other mech? He blew up the DMV with it, sorry did wing zero do that? No? MEGAS XLR wins.

MEGAS XLR is the BEST!

YOU LOVE GIANT ROBOTS, I LOVE GIANT ROBOTS, WE LOVE GIANT ROBOTS, CHICKS DIG GIANT ROBOTS
nice

 

[BakaSmurf]

...Huh, I think my head just exploded from the sheer amount of awesomeness that this article is radiating.

 

[Robert632]

it will be sad when the tallest structure ends up being a giant robot statue in Japan, or wherever it goes up.

 

[Eric the Orange]

Guess we need to build a 1:1 scale Castle of Lions, complete with Voltron now. Oh, this battle is so ON!

This and everything suggested like Transformers and 'Robotech'

THEY. ARE. JAPANESE!

GET YOUR OWN FREAKING ROBOTS!

God damn knock-offs... Then again your all fools who think 'Oh lol this will be best' FOOLISH FOOLS! Taekwon V is a Super Robot therefore we must match it with.
COME HERE! DAITARN 3!

And Daitarn 3 isn't Japanese?

You gotta find first gear in your giant robot car.

Also another winning note is Bruce Cambell is a voice actor in the show, does GUNDAM have that?? Noooooo! See Gundam is very vulnerable to deadites attacking, while Megas is safe, I think
