The world's largest humanoid robot is currently being built in Yokohama, Japan.

Modeled after Gundam, a humanoid robot that stars in various anime series, films, manga, and more, the robot will be almost 60 feet tall.

It won't debut until October, but there is a 64-foot-tall Gundam statue in Tokyo, in the meantime.

At the Port of Yokohama, just south of Tokyo, the world's largest humanoid robot will come to life. Modeled on Gundam, the popular fictional robot that has been the subject of some 50 TV series and movies since 1979, plus a slew of video games and manga, the bot will tower nearly 60 feet tall and feature 24 degrees of freedom. So yes, this thing will be able to walk.
