The iconic giant Gundam that has protected citizens in Tokyo, Japan since 2009 is officially no more.

After its last show on March 5, the 59-foot (18-meter) tall RX-78 Gundam replica was officially dismantled by contractors this week, reports RocketNews24. The giant was left standing in its "Last Shooting" pose from "Mobile Suit Gundam," a scene that has touched the hearts of many anime fans.

I am glad they made it like a tribute. I was in to Gundam Wing growing up so I am one of the fans who's heart was touched. Thanks for sharing this article. I likely would have missed out on this news.
