Default Tokyo Supercars Day

Was in Tokyo, just happened to walk into their Japan Supercar Association event in Odiaba over the weekend (where the giant Gundam Robot is). Snapped a new pics. There were at least 100 cars on display.

That's really cool! Huge variety as well, I wonder how bad the road tax for those challengers is....

That unicorn gundam is cool too, I like that they have lighting for the psychoframe sections on it. Is it full lifesize?

Looks awesome! Thanks for sharing

@Striker223 Yup, that's life sized and has some movement. They also do a show some nights, but I haven't seen it

Thanks for sharing.

The yellow Countach is very interesting. It almost looks like it could be the prototype.

Yep, some classics as well as some very showy cars (like the black/gold lambo with LED blinking lights all over the grill/intake).

Yep, life size and does some minimal transformation during certain hours of the day with voice-over and sound effects. The Gundam shop in the mall is massive as well, takes up half of the floor plate in the top floor. And opposite the store - Gundam arcades with trip-screen setup!
