The tours will start this weekend on July 17th!
Online tours of GUNDAM FACTORY YOKOHAMA where you’ll be able to see how the Moving Gundam works behind the scenes will be held.
During these tours, a live camera will be able to enter the GUNDAM-DOCK, an area that is usually off-limits to everyone but maintenance staff, accompanied by guests explaining everything. Participants of the tour can ask the guests questions in real-time using the chat function, allowing for conversation.
The guests are Akinori Ishii, the technical director who became known for his easy-to-understand explanations during the pre-open event Online Backyard Tour Mission 0; Masaki Kawahara, the creative director who was in charge of the Moving Gundam’s design; and Wataru Yoshizaki, the system director in charge of motion. Each of the guests will speak about their specialty and reveal some never-before-told stories about what goes on behind the scenes.
