Where were the school trips like this when I was a kid? What an epic thing to do. I wonder how many kids will ultimately end up interested in this line of work as a result of school trips like this. Far better than a trip to a national art museum which you can't understand any of when you're 6 years old (my actual lived experience and opinion despite being an artist).

Code:

Gundam Factory Yokohama, the facility which houses a life-size, moving RX-78-2 Gundam statue, has been holding educational seminars aimed at elementary and middle schools students since November. On Tuesday, the facility held a "special" class for elementary school students focusing specifically on the mechanisms that control the movement of the Walking Gundam's hand. The program provided children the opportunity to manipulate the hand with a remote control. The hand of the Walking Gundam includes 12 motors that allows it to individually move each finger in a way that expresses emotions. According to Gundam Global Challenge (GGC) technical coordinator Akinori Ishii, the hand movements are very important for the machine because it does not have facial expressions. GGC system director Wataru Yoshizaki explained that controlling the hand is relatively easier as long as it follows a pre-written program. In addition, the class gave the students a sneak peak at the hand as it undergoes maintenance.
