The Ocean Park x Gundam father “Ogawara Kunio’s 50th Anniversary Exhibition”, which has been discussed by many people in the animation industry these days, although the editor was unable to attend the Media Preview and autograph session for two days because he was still on business in the United States, but in I saw criticisms on the arrangement of this exhibition from all walks of life on the Internet, and I also wanted to see how the exhibition will be following it is opened to the public. Will there be any changes or other new developments in the arrangement? So today (April 6, 2023), when the public admission has been opened, come to see what happened, and comment on each item of the entire “Okawara Kunio 50th Anniversary Exhibition” one by one.
Note: This “Daheyuan Exhibition” article is completely different from the usual exhibition introduction articles. I will use my personal perception to see the entire exhibition. If you don’t like it, don’t read it. will play.
The number of visitors is very small + can go backwards
The number of visitors in the exhibition hall was very small. The editor was present at the time from 11:30 am to 2:00 pm. There were only regarding 0-5 people in each animation exhibition area, and the case of 5 people was a family. Come, with such a number of people, the place is very spacious, the walk is very comfortable without rushing, and the air-conditioning is also sufficient; and the editor has also tested that when arriving at the limited product store at the end, walk backwards to the entrance position, Even if you meet the staff, you can’t stop walking backwards. Therefore, when the editor wants to take pictures frequently this time, it is almost impossible to be blocked by tourists.
totally inappropriate background music
The music played in the exhibition hall is very literary and artistic, and the sleepy music is a bit incompatible with the robot theme or manuscript drawings in the field.
Statues vary in quality
This part is extremely interesting. After wandering around the entire venue, the editor found that the production quality of the various robot statues varies. The following will describe each statue in detail. To put it bluntly, some statues give me the feeling that I have gone to a cottage paradise…
The hidden hero of the magic king
The hidden man with good posture and proportions, some parts are also painted with black lines, the painting is good, and the details are well done; with the magic array picture behind, they are all pretty good.
score:★★★☆☆
Masha special red Zaku (hostile, not villain)
To be honest, this is the most difficult statue in the entire exhibition hall. I am a fan of self-protection, and I absolutely cannot accept such red slag. It is very sloppy. You can see it for yourself, and I don’t want to say too much; The green Zaku outside the museum is much better than it… 1 star is because it is a self-protecting body.
score:★☆☆☆☆
armored cavalry glasses pitbull
This statue is very thoughtful to see. In addition to the general painting, it also has an aging effect and spray shadows. It is the most heart-made one that is rarely seen in the museum.
score:★★★★☆
The King of Braves Gaogaigar
The King of Braves is very special, it is possible to miss the eyes, at first I thought it was a lighting problem, but when I look closely, it really has no eyes; the surface is very rough, it is not difficult to see that some surfaces are uneven, the Galeon lion head in the middle is close to It looks a bit like paper，The physique of the body is also not flattering, it is not a nirvana, nor is it a classic pose or a classic pose.
score:★★☆☆☆
Assault Freedom Gundam
Although this Assault Liberty has been painted, the quality of the paint is not good, like a model painted with a paintbrush, especially the blue part of the wing is a Dada, it seems to have brush marks; in addition, the statue Part of the surface is also uneven, as if it were not polished smooth. Some of the engraved lines have leaked lines, but some of the engraved lines have been left out for infiltrated lines. This is an exhibition, so we should do better, right?
score:★★☆☆☆
Shuangxia Dog
The production quality of Shuangxiagou is definitely better than that of RX-782 Gundam. Many parts are also painted and colored, and the details are complete. If necessary, black lines are also filled in. It is a qualified and good work.
score:★★★★☆
Gundam RX78-2
I don’t know whether it’s intentional or unintentional. Putting this RX78-2 and Shuangxiagou together, the production quality of RX78-2 will be compared… It’s a bit like a HG-level model set, with simple lines and no ostentation. A very stylish pose, the model of the vegan group did not show any leakage, just like a big plastic doll.
score:★☆☆☆☆
Green Zaku X 10
Among the many statues, the most scheming one can be said to be the first to promote Green Zaku, and there are still 10 statues. In terms of model series, it is like MG-level. The lines and details on the body are the most abundant, and the subtle positions There are bleeding lines, and there are Markings on many parts of the body, just like water stickers on MG/RG models. Biying is the first to be promoted. However, I always feel that this batch of Green Zaku looks like familiar noodles… Where have you seen it? XD
score:★★★★★
Kunio Okawara Movie Exhibition Areas
Mr. Kunio Ogawara’s animation manuscript exhibition area is the soul of this exhibition. If it weren’t for them, the editor would not have traveled far to see it. After looking at many pictures, I feel that the original draft is like this. The design is like that. After watching it, I admire Mr. Ogawara even more. It is definitely not an easy task to make so many animation sets, and many of them are very successful. The Shanji models are all created for him. He has been in this industry for so many years, and he still continues to this day. It is really rare, and I admire his perseverance.
Rating: The ratings of each animation exhibition area are all ★★★★★
missing animation
The editor is not only a fan of robot animation, but also a fan of “Super Robot Wars”. I found that in the “Ogawara Exhibition”, I missed a set of animations with Kunio Ogawara as a machine design. Yes, that is Mecha Wars Dragon (Mecha Wars ドラグナー). The machine design of this set of works also has a taste of Gundam. It has also been rated as realistic animation by animation fans. “Machine Wars” is also real. The body, and the hostile character of the protagonist (not a villain! It is hostile) Mai Yue (マイヨ), whose combat power and popularity are like the red comet Marsha in “Gundam”, especially in the last few words, the status of the protagonist was replaced by him.
Hi-Metal R Veyron Type 1 modification, the editor added the effect of seepage lines and water stickers.
Recommended must-see Mr. Ogawara’s visit
When you enter this entrance, there will be a large screen that will broadcast Mr. Ogawara’s interview in a loop. For anime fans, it is definitely worth spending a few minutes watching it.
score: ★★★★☆
Mr. Ogawara’s work desktop
Here you can see Mr. Ogawara’s working desktop, which is not a miniature model, but a 1:1 real scale.
score: ★★★☆☆
Teacher Daheyuan’s small handicraft area
In this part, you can see the small handicraft products of Mr. Ogawara, all of which are made by him. If you are interested, you can take a look. Some of the shapes are interesting.
score: ★★★★☆
shop area
The store area is divided into a limited store area and a model area; the model area can be skipped directly, and there are some for sale in the shop, and it is not a limited special edition; on the contrary, all related boutiques in the limited area are limited, types There are also many styles, ranging from popular to extremely expensive, and most of them are made with Dakeyuan’s hand-painted works. If you like it, you can scan the goods yourself.
Free Octopus Card
There are two types of card faces that can be picked up by tapping the NFC in the exhibition hall. They are the card faces of Little Shuangxia and Armored Cavalry, and they can be found on the walls of the exhibition area.
There are two entry prices
If you buy the Ocean Park package ticket, the price is HK$448. For the poisonous editor, I don’t usually go to Ocean Park, and I don’t have a girlfriend. Why do I come here? Therefore, the price of the package ticket is really a bit expensive; if you don’t buy a package ticket, you must first have the admission ticket of Ocean Park, and then add HK$200 to enter the venue, which is more expensive… And when you pass the entrance in the venue today, you will also I heard with my own ears that some parents prevented children from entering the exhibition hall: “Don’t go in, it’s too expensive to enter.”
Entry time is limited to 45 minutes
The staff said that the time limit for viewing the exhibition in the venue is 45 minutes, but even if you stay in the museum following the limited time, the staff will not drive you away. During the on-site inspection, the editor did not see any exhibition visitors being driven away due to being outdated.
