by Dhiram Shah

Japan Iron and Steel Federation celebrated its 150th anniversary with the ‘Iron Stars Festival’. Star of the event was a mammoth statue of an Armored Trooper from the hit anime show from the 80’s ‘Armored Trooper VOTOMS’. Standing tall at 4 meters it dwarfed every structure at the show. Weighing in at a few tons the statue is made keeping in mind even the minuet details like designs on the foot and patterns on the armor.
