Japan Iron and Steel Federation celebrated it’s 150th anniversary calling the event ‘Iron Stars Festival’. Many iron sculptures and robot like figures made of steel have been displayed and that might amuse both adults and children. One of the sculptures looks deceptively similar to the robot sculpture we had covered a few weeks ago. The highlight of the event is the SF robot cartoon BOTOMUZU Armored Trooper (AT). Steel made Lobo, which weighs many tons, is another exhibit at the event. BOTOMUZU was itself inspired by an Anime character and has been termed as the Anime’s highest mountain. It tells the story of galactic feuds and supernatural beings. The sculpture measures 4 metres and most of the robotic characters have been turned into sculptures and plane sculptures have used an astonishing amount of metal. The BURUTISSHUKASUTAMU has an overwhelming presence and has used extreme amounts of moulding materials. The place surely must be awe inspiring with so many robotic and futuristic iron and steel sculptures being exhibited.
