FIRST TIME? 
Description
This is a posable, Master-Grade injection-plastic kit of an item from the Gundam universe.
From "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans," arrives the fourth form of the main Gundam, Barbatos, as an MG!
The internal mechanisms such as the Gundam from and Ahab Reactors, have been thoroughly recreated. Features excellent color separation, improved dynamic movement gimmicks, and plentiful option parts.
Barbatos' fourth form colors have been replicated with precision, and the internal parts such as the Gundam frame have been carefully crafted to match their appearance in the series. The cylinders in the frame employ silver plating for extra detail, and the chest features a gimmick to allow rotation of the Ahab Reactors for the first time in an MG.
The inner frame, cylinders, and armor are linked by a moveable axis in the upper body to improve posing ability. Barbatos' knees also move in conjunction with their cylinders, expanding range of motion and offering a natural look when standing. Left to right movement of the waist has been articulated to allow for distinct down-facing posing, too.
In addition to the wealth of possibilities in the kit itself, the weapon parts also feature satisfying gimmicks, such as a sliding and folding gimmick on the glide gun.
Add this impressive MG to your own lineup and enjoy all the intricate posing options it has to offer!
[Includes]:
- Mace x1

Assembly Guide
Skill Level 2:
Easy to Complete
Skill Level 2 kits require basic plastic model assembly techniques, such as cutting parts from the runners, and cutting or sanding away the remains of the gates (the place where the part was connected to the runner). Some kits in this level also provide stickers for some markings. Most level 2 kits do not require cement or paint, but be sure to read any additional information provided to be sure. To nicely complete a level 2 kit, you will want to have a pair of plastic nippers for cutting parts from the runners, and a fine file, sandpaper or hobby knife for cleaning the gates. In some cases, a pair of tweezers makes applying stickers easier. Most adults with no prior modeling experience would have no trouble completing a kit of skill level 2. Parents would probably want to assist younger children with a kit of this level if they have never built one before.
No Cement Required
This item does not require the use of cement to complete. Some modelers prefer to use cement on snap-together kits in order to fix them into a particular pose, or make a joint more secure. However, this is not required to complete these kits.
No Painting Required
This item does not require painting.
Either the item is completely pre-painted, such as an action figure or other completed figure, or it is molded in the colors of the finished item so that it appears natural after you have assembled it. Note that kits which are molded in their final colors will always look better when painted, even if this is not required. At the very least, a light coat of flat clear spray will make a science-fiction kit look much less toy-like after assembly. The same goes for some action figures as well.
