The impressive model of the giant robot known as Gigantor, has finally been completed as a main attraction in the Wakamatsu Park in Kobe, Japan.

Standing at a magnificent 60-feet tall, the heroic role model of Japanese animation cost up to 135 million yen ($1.5m/£1m) to build, and was a tribute to Gigantor creator Mitsuteru Yokoyama. It also aims to be one of the leading tourist attractions for the area.
