The Life-Sized Unicorn Gundam Statue that towered over the plaza at DiverCity Tokyo Plaza in Odaiba, Tokyo, officially ended its run on August 31, 2026, closing the book on nearly nine years at the landmark location.
In a surprise announcement just over two months later, officials revealed on November 13 that the statue's head will return starting November 21 for a limited-time display at its former home in Festival Plaza on the second floor of DiverCity Tokyo Plaza. It offers fans a fresh way to reconnect with the Unicorn Gundam and the memories it created. Officials also released the documentary video "Life-Sized Unicorn Gundam Statue -LAST MEMORIES-," revisiting the statue's final day on display.
The exhibition gives fans a rare opportunity to see the statue's enormous head up close, something that was impossible during its original run. Visitors can examine the intricate details across the structure and experience a dramatically different perspective from looking up at the towering statue.
Officials have only confirmed that the exhibition will begin on November 21, 2026. No closing date has been announced, though the display will be available for a limited time.
The official Gundam YouTube channel has also released "Life-Sized Unicorn Gundam Statue -LAST MEMORIES-." The video looks back at the final commemorative ceremony held on Saturday, August 29, as well as scenes from the exhibition's last day and interviews with people involved in the project.
If you never made the pilgrimage before the Life-Sized Unicorn Gundam Statue ended its run, this is your chance to return to the same location on the mall's second floor. This time, you can see the Unicorn Gundam that stood there for nine years from an entirely new, up-close perspective.
