Post 33ft. Mazinger Z
I found this in flickr. Supposedly for a theme park that was never realized in Spain but this thing still exists. It's been there for over 20 years which gives it that aged authentic look. Pretty crazy.

buy it? I bet we could rent a container, a few of us take a little vacation and dismantle it ourselves in the middle of the night. It would also be impressive if his feet were actually in S7's store with a large glass sunroof.

What amazes me about this thread is that Michael just happened to be there after Lamour posted.

Coincidence? Synchronicity? The hivemind? Or what ... :shock:

Whoa, that's so cool, it would be amazing to hear him give a lecture. Will they be selling Kiyoshi's work there, as well? I'd love to own a Violence Jack, cel.

its super weird, i took some shots of the slideshow as it was too dark to get a photo of him, but they had security discouraging photos of him because hes really sick apparently? his work wasnt for sale, but they have a nice exhibit of his paintings.

the theme of the con is robots this year so its all about mazinger, and i entered the lottery and won a special illustration print he did just for spain, ill try to get a picture of him at least signing it when i go back and upload the rest of the photos i took!

This isn't that far from Barcelona? I'm heading there in August now. We plan on getting out into the country maybe, so if I pass it I'll definitely stop.
