Greetings /m/
This was placed in our city entrance in ankara turkey this week. We're having trouble identifying it. I personally think gundam series bcz of the legs, people say it looks like a cylon or transformer.
Tetsujin 28 ?
>>12374532
That looks like a Zaku 1 with two pauldrons and a Tetsujin 28-esque head.
>>12374532
The body and limbs certainly look like the Zaku's.
>>12374532
Zaku II /w Tetsujin head
>>12374532
>people say it looks like a cylon or transformer
Show me one Cylon or Transformer that looks like that. ONE.
>>12374532
Better question:
Why are people making Zaku statues in Turkey?
Question: Who the heck placed it there? And why? How do you just sneak a giant robot into Turkey? And it looks like Tetsujin to me.

OP here with another pic.
We don't know the motivation behind building one here. We're guessing the mayor liked some transformers in one of his travels overseas. He posted pics of himself posing with 1/1 Autobot Statues earlier this year.

>be mayor of a major city

Based.
Might as well post this
I'm looking for a mech show I saw as a kid
It was about some sort of robot fighting tournament and the main mech was a small humanoid and a dragon that combined into a large humanoid with a bitching shoulder canon
>>12374532
>I personally think gundam series
>>12374960
jumaroh?
>>12374971
Nope
I remember its main color being red
>>12374673
Was it in the works for a while, or was it just like, suddenly there overnight?
Its clearly some sort of Zaku or Gouf imitation
>>12374673
Is it possible that the weird helmet is due to the guy who made the statue being a bit confused by the artwork the guy showed them?
Because it seriously looks like a Zaku except the head.
Or maybe he specifically combined two robots as to avoid copyright issues?
>>12374673
There's a zaku that looks exactly like this in origin, can't remember which volume, but the one with ramba ral and his squad going on their moon capture mission. Maybe he used origin as source mat?

OP here.
>>12374969
hehaheahehaeheaheaheh I was mostly right tho.
>>12375005
there overnight :)
>>12375016
copyright issue sounds plausible. The mayor's known to place weird colored batman statues in amusement parks.
>>12374837
Truely a 10/10 Mayor.
Wish mine was that cool...maybe I should run? It's a small town not gonna be that much competition and some /m/ statues would liven this place up.
>>12375088
Yeah that's the oneI can't find the completed series anywhere
>>12374532
You guys really need to get rid of your mayor, anyway, this looks like a Zaku I with a different head that resemble Tetsujin 28, can resemble too a weird version of the head of the MS-04 from Gundam The Origins.

Thanks for posting a pic, that's exactly what I was talking about.

Question, what is the name of old show that have feature uh.... going inside bigger robots
I only remember the smallest robot was red one and some kind using rugby,
it can go inside bigger robot 3 times, with biggest one is coloured blue if I remember correctly, once I found it but I forgot it again now....
>>12375949
Galvion or Gordian maybe? Could be Machine Robo.
Daiapollon has a sports theme but not robots inside other robots.
>>12374673
>a Turkish mayor might actually be browsing /m/ right now
>>12375968
found it, its gordion
I made mistake the smallest one wasn't red.
>>12376001
>>12375089
This is actually starting to sound like it's the first part of a treasure hunt. Put your thinking caps on, we might be able to find some gold.

Turkey would know.

It's probably a safe place at night.
If Turkey is building Zakus, who's gonna build the GMs?
>>12377245Kurds and Armenians
>>12377245
>>12377299
Now imagine one year war with turkish and kurdish characters as the only participant,

This would be amazing.

>>12374532
