GUNDAM - MG - Barbatos - Model Kit - 1/100-18cm

A fantastic build, worthy to be part of any gunpla collection

This kit is awesome! It's the most like an action figure, quality wise, out of all my Gunpla. The build was relatively easy, it's got done really small pieces but they're the only difficult parts. I dropped one once... Took me 10 minutes to find it. The detailing is really good too. The decals are stickers not transfers so that makes it easier. My photos attached were taken after I panel lined and there's a little Photoshop too. The articulation is brilliant too. Double jointed knees and elbows. All the joints are sturdy too, like an action figure as mentioned before. So if you're new to gunpla, like me, I'd go for it. And especially if you are an experienced gunpla builder.

Item arrived on time and good quality piece of kit

Great build , pretty complex but looks fantastic . I even managed to hollow out the head and add led eyes . Overall fantastic gundam .. Bad points … once built don’t you dare breath on him cos bits fall off when a gnat flies past . Build him , put him in a cabinet and never touch again .

i absolutely adore this kit. i myself am a Iron-Blooded orphans fan and this kit reminded me of why i got into gunpla. i love it. the build was extremely fun and never got boring! and the finished product is so rewarding! i also love the new redesign of the barbatos and the more flat and rounded out parts. overall i would highly HIGHLY recommend this kit even if you are not a Iron-Blooded orphans fan! if you are a gundam or gunpla ran in general, this here is a must have!

Product arrived earlier than expected, was one of the best MG builds (if not the best) I ever did so far. Solid, amazing articulation with nice functional pistons at the joints. Great inner frame (as expected from an IBO gundam) and something that I always like in a gunpla is the possibility of using the entire loadout of weapons at once (and no, that doesnt affect the stability). Amazing kit and looks great.

This came as described, and sooner than expected. It was my first ever Gundam I've assembled, I very much enjoyed the process, fiddly at times, and I had to really make sure I was reading and following the instructions carefully, but once use to the instructions and it became easier, and more natural. If you're thinking of getting a Gundam model I see no reason not to get this one.

I loved building this. The figurine looks great. The frame itself was a bit tricky to build but all the parts are tight and nothing is loose. Only problems where that some of the parts where tiny and very hard to work with.

A Near-Perfect MG Kit Experience (4.5/5) This Master Grade kit is hands down one of the most enjoyable builds I’ve ever tackled. The engineering is exceptional — every part fits together seamlessly, showcasing the precision and thought put into its design. What really stood out to me was the level of detail. This was my first time attempting scribing and panel lining, and this kit made it feel worth the effort. The finely molded lines and surfaces offer a fantastic canvas to enhance with panel lining, though I did find myself spending quite a bit of time to do it justice. The build took me about two weeks to complete at a relaxed pace, as I generally don’t rush my model kits. Throughout the process, I was consistently impressed by how well the components came together and how satisfying it was to see the final form take shape. If I had one critique, it would be the decals — while they complement the model nicely, I wish they had been more intricate to match the overall complexity and elegance of the design. On the positive side, this kit is extremely poseable. It offers a wide range of dynamic options that really bring the model to life once completed. Whether you're displaying it in a neutral stance or going all-out with action poses, it holds up beautifully. Overall, this MG kit is a fantastic addition to any Gunpla enthusiast’s collection. With excellent part separation, sharp details, and impressive articulation, it’s a strong 4.5 out of 5 for me.

Really fun to build and looks nice!

Un Gundam che a livello di storia nasce come incompleto e questo modello lo riporta fedelmente pagare prezzo pieno è una cattiveria. E' un modello adatto a tutti i neofiti o già navigati. Lo consiglio più ai neofiti per la sua facilità di montaggio mentre per chi come me ha già parecchi modelli alle spalle lo prenderei solo per il collezionismo...simpatiche le articolazioni con i pistoni ma sinceramente le gambe che sono da sempre il punto più articolato di un gumpla, dai RG in su, ritrovarsi con un quasi monoblocco quando ci sono modelli precedenti che arrivano ad avere anche 4 punti di articolazione è un vero peccato...per non parlare dei piedi...lo Shaquille o'neal dei Gundam.

a must have gunpla unit

Das Kit ist außerordentlich gut. Es zeichnet sich durch detailreiche und Komplexe Bauabschnitte aus und fasziniert mit jedem weiteren Elemente. Es ist etwas interessanter als andere die ich als MG hatte. Man muss öfters mal genauer hinsehen und probieren weil es Recht anspruchsvoll ist. Es ist aber gut zu bewältigen und macht definitiv Spaß und die positiven Rezensionen kann man bestätigen. Nimmt euch Zeit, einen Tee oder was alternatives und genießt den Prozess mit Achtsamkeit. MfG
