Mobile Suit Gundam

In this undated photo released by Bandai Co. on Aug. 4, 2006, a model smiles next to a large plastic model of the main character robot of popular Japanese cartoon 'Mobile Suit Gundam.' A Japanese bureaucrat has been reprimanded for shirking his duties to make hundreds of contributions to Wikipedia about the popular toy robots, officials said Friday, Oct. 5, 2007. The agriculture ministry said the bureaucrat contributed 260 times to the Japanese-language Wikipedia entry on Gundam, a popular, long-running animated series about giant robots that has spun off intricate toys popular among schoolchildren but also adults known as 'otaku' nerds.
