Gundam Factory Yokohama was an amusement center themed after the Gundam franchise. Located at Yamashita Pier in Yokohama, Japan, it was the home of the moving life-sized RX-78F00 Gundam. It officially opened on December 19, 2020 [1] and closed after March 31, 2024.[2][3] Parts of the Gundam were reused for a new statue in front of the Gundam Next Future Pavilion at Expo 2025 in Osaka from April 13 to October 13, 2025.[4]
On December 3, 2020, the life-sized RX-78F00 Gundam statue set two Guinness World Records: The Largest Mobile Humanoid Robot and The Largest Mobile Gundam.[5][6]
