Key features
  1. Highly Detailed Inner Frame: One of the hallmarks of the Master Grade line is the detailed inner frame, and the Barbatos 4th Form is no exception. This inner structure not only offers robustness to the model but also provides an enhanced range of articulation. The frame is meticulously designed to reflect the mobile suit's mechanical intricacies and can even be displayed on its own as a testament to its engineering.
  2. Iconic Weaponry & Equipment: The Barbatos 4th Form comes with its signature mace and smoothbore gun, among other armaments. The mace, in particular, is a standout feature, showcasing the unique melee combat style of the Gundam. These weapons are recreated in great detail, allowing for dynamic posing and a faithful representation of scenes from the anime.
  3. Customizable Armour Plates: True to the adaptability of the Barbatos throughout the series, the MG version of the 4th Form comes with armour plates that can be attached and detached. This feature provides builders with the flexibility to customize the mobile suit's appearance and even recreate different forms or battle-damaged looks.

In essence, the Bandai 1/100 MG Gundam Barbatos 4th Form is a culmination of detailed design, advanced articulation, and customizable features. It offers both an enriching building experience and a highly poseable end product, making it a sought-after model for fans of the "Iron-Blooded Orphans" series and Gunpla enthusiasts alike.

Bandai 1/100 MG Barbatos 4th Form

Bandai 1/100 MG Gundam Barbatos 4th Form

The Bandai 1/100 MG Gundam Barbatos 4th Form is the Master Grade kit of the ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos as it appears in its fourth configuration in Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans, piloted by Mikazuki Augus. This is the definitive 1/100 scale treatment of the Barbatos — built around a fully articulated inner frame with chrome-plated cylinders, a spinning hub reactor gimmick, and hip joints engineered specifically to recreate Barbatos's signature downward-looking combat pose. If you want the most detailed and poseable version of the Barbatos available, this is the kit to build.

The MG Barbatos 4th Form is designed for intermediate builders and features a complete inner frame with interlocking armour attachment. The chrome-plated cylinders and spinning hub reactor are engineering highlights you won't find in the Full Mechanics or HG versions of this mobile suit.

The armour panels interlock directly with the inner frame rather than sitting over it, which gives the Barbatos its characteristic layered mechanical look and allows full poseability without armour parts popping off during posing. The mace includes a sliding handle, the gun has a slide-and-fold action, and three pairs of interchangeable hand parts let you set up a range of display configurations. Best suited to builders who've completed at least one MG kit and are comfortable with inner frame assembly.

What Makes This Kit Special

  • Chrome-Plated Inner Frame Cylinders: The inner frame includes chrome-plated cylinder parts — a premium detail that catches light and adds mechanical depth not present in the Full Mechanics or HG kits.
  • Spinning Hub Reactor Gimmick: The Ahab Reactor hub on the inner frame includes a functional spinning gimmick, faithfully recreating one of the Barbatos's signature design features.
  • Dynamic Hip Joint Engineering: Left/right hip joint movement is specifically engineered to recreate Barbatos's famous downward-looking combat pose from the anime.
  • Interlocking Armour System: Armour panels attach directly to and interlock with the inner frame, enabling full poseability while keeping parts secure during display.
  • Expandable Knee Armour: Armour behind the knees can be pulled out to expand the range of leg movement for deeper action poses.
  • Weapon Gimmicks: The mace features a sliding handle; the gun includes a slide-and-fold action — both functional play features that add display versatility.
  • Three Pairs of Interchangeable Hands: Multiple hand part configurations included for weapon-holding, open, and relaxed display poses.
  • 4th Form Configuration: Specifically represents the Barbatos in its fourth form configuration as seen in the Iron-Blooded Orphans anime, distinct from the standard or Lupus variants.

What's In The Box

  • Plastic runners for the ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos 4th Form (1/100 scale)

Assembly Guide

SKILL LEVEL REQUIRED
Skill Level.2 Basic modeling skills are required. Parental supervision may be required for younger children. These kits are generally suitable for beginner builders. A basic set of modeling tools are required including nippers, hobby knife, sanding sticks/paper, file, and tweezers. No glue is needed for the general assembly. Parts will need to be removed by using a pair of nippers and cutting the part away from the runner. Parts may require clean-up where they were removed from the runner.
No Cement Required

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.

No Painting Required

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Mecha series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Mecha kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.

Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the "Full Mechanics" line and the traditional Master Grade (MG) series for "Iron-Blooded Orphans"?

The "Full Mechanics" line is a unique category specific to "Iron-Blooded Orphans" that sits between the High Grade (HG) and Master Grade (MG) in terms of detail and complexity. While it's 1/100 scale like MG, it doesn't offer the same intricate inner frame details that MG kits typically boast. However, "Full Mechanics" kits still provide a detailed build experience, highlighting the unique mobile suit designs of the IBO series.

I've seen the Barbatos in various forms. Is it available in both "Full Mechanics" and Master Grade?

Yes, Barbatos, one of the signature mobile suits from the IBO series, has been made available in the "Full Mechanics" line showcasing its various iterations. Moreover, there's an MG version, the MG Barbatos, which provides an even more detailed and articulate representation of this iconic mobile suit.

Considering the design differences, which is more beginner-friendly: "Full Mechanics" or Master Grade from the IBO series?

If you're a beginner, the "Full Mechanics" line might be a more approachable starting point. While it offers a good level of detail, it doesn't delve into the intricacies and complexities that Master Grade kits can present. However, if you're up for a challenge and want a deep dive into Gunpla building, the MG kits are an excellent choice.

Are the accessories and weapons from the anime series accurately represented in both the "Full Mechanics" and MG kits?

Absolutely! Both lines pride themselves on capturing the essence of the "Iron-Blooded Orphans" series. You'll find weapons, armaments, and accessories true to the anime, ensuring your model accurately reflects its on-screen counterpart.

Do I need specialized tools or additional purchases for the decals and detailing on these kits?

Both "Full Mechanics" and Master Grade kits come with stickers or decals for detailing, and you'll achieve the best results using a pair of nippers and perhaps a hobby knife for clean part separation. For those who wish to delve deeper into detailing, panel lining pens and top coat sprays can enhance the final look, but these are optional.

Awesome kit, great extras. Only criticism is that the kit comes with a base so you don't need the second one. The kit also doesn't have the ability to take the blue LED bonus so if you don't have another use for it it is wasted. Luckily, I'm a Gundam tragic so will always have uses for extra bases and lighting kits.

Excellent service and fast delivery

I purchased on 6 Jan and my order arrived on 13 Jan. It was very well packed, with both boxes in excellent condition. Cam even provided a small free gift in the box! Overall purchasing experience was smooth and hassle-free. I haven’t had the chance to build the kit yet, but based on the service and care taken with shipping, I would happily purchase from this store if there are other Space Battleship Yamato models available.

Very rare with fair price

If you were one of the lucky ones that were able to travel to Sydney Gundam Base pop-up in 2025 and queued extremely early (like the first 40 or so) on the first day, probably you were able to grab one of these. Otherwise, the only alternative I would know of is traveling to Japan and being uber lucky of having it still being sold at Gundam bases. Otherwise, it's a second-hand market, and prices will go up. That said, the price was fair, I think it would be similar price as using a dropship service from Japan, with the exception that it's much faster and way more guaranteed you will get proper merchandise. So, Mecha Express, Cam, thank you so much for your store!
