AnimeNYC is merely days away and the upcoming anime convention just keeps on bringing the fire when it comes to announcing special guests. Just revealed today, Bluefin and Bandai unveil their AnimeNYC show exclusive action figures and a very special guest who has cemented an eternal legacy in the anime world.
AnimeNYC attendees are all cordially invited to commemorate and celebrate the 40th anniversary of Mobile Suit Gundam, the classic giant-mecha anime that took the world by storm in the 80s all the way up to the early 2000s. In attendance is Mobile Suit Gundam creator and director Yoshiyuki Tomino!
Yoshiyuki Tomino will participate in several panels, and signing sessions.
