Key features
  1. Heavy Armour Design: Gundam Gusion is most notably recognised for its bulky, heavy armor that covers nearly its entire frame. This thick armour gives the Gusion a very distinctive silhouette compared to other Gundams, offering it an enhanced level of protection from enemy fire. This makes the Gundam Gusion one of the most defensive units in the "Iron-Blooded Orphans" series.
  2. Versatile Hammer Weaponry: One of Gundam Gusion's primary weapons is the Gusion Rebake's massive hammer, known for its raw destructive power. This large mace-like weapon, with its built-in boosters, can deliver devastating blows that can easily crush enemy mobile suits.
  3. Distinctive Visor: The Gundam Gusion's facial design sets it apart from most other Gundams. Rather than the typical Gundam face, Gusion sports a singular visor-like mono-eye, giving it a unique and somewhat mysterious appearance.

The Bandai 1/144 HGIBO Gundam Gusion model encapsulates the mobile suit's heavy-set design and distinctive look, making it a standout piece for any "Iron-Blooded Orphans" Gunpla enthusiast or collector.

Bandai 1/144 HGIBO Gundam Gusion

Bandai 1/144 HGIBO Gundam Gusion

The ASW-G-11 Gundam Gusion is one of the heavy-set Gundam Frames from Iron-Blooded Orphans, recovered by Tekkadan early in Season 1 and rebuilt as the Gundam Gusion Rebake. This is the original Gusion configuration as it appears in flashbacks and pre-Tekkadan service: a much bulkier, more imposing Gundam Frame than Barbatos, designed for raw brawling power rather than mobility. The kit's massive hammer and machine gun loadout reflects its role as a heavy assault unit.

If you collect IBO Gundam Frames, the original Gusion is the natural counterpart to Barbatos — same Calamity War lineage, completely different design philosophy.

This kit is designed for beginner-to-intermediate builders and is a clean snap-fit build with strong colour separation.

The Gusion runs on the standard HGIBO Gundam Frame inner structure with heavy external armour. The massive hammer and machine gun both mount on the backpack for storage, and the kit is fully compatible with the wider HGIBO Customise Parts system. Colour separation handles the dark green, beige, and grey scheme through the runners with minimal painting needed.

What Makes This Kit Special

  • Original Gusion Configuration: The pre-rebake heavy assault loadout, distinct from the Gusion Rebake and Gusion Rebake Full City variants
  • Massive Hammer: Over-sized two-handed hammer that defines the Gusion's brawling silhouette
  • Back-Mounted Machine Gun: Heavy-calibre machine gun stores on the backpack and detaches for combat poses
  • Gundam Frame Inner Structure: Full IBO Gundam Frame articulation underneath the heavy armour
  • Heavyweight Silhouette: One of the bulkiest 1/144 HGIBO kits, fills more shelf space than Barbatos or Astaroth
  • Compatible With HGIBO Customise Parts: Swap armour and weapons with other IBO kits
  • Action Base Compatible: Standard 3mm peg for aerial display

Fast Australian Shipping

Same Day Dispatch: Orders placed before 2pm weekdays ship same day. Orders after 2pm or on weekends ship next business day.

Australian Stock: In stock and ready to ship Australia-wide from Mecha Express. The HGIBO 1/144 Gundam Gusion is the ASW-G-11 in its original heavy assault configuration, with massive hammer and back-mountable machine gun included.

What to Watch For

The Gusion is heavy. The single-leg standing poses are stable on a flat shelf but the kit can lean if the hammer is held off to one side. The hammer's two-handed grip works best with the included hand parts — the standard fists struggle with the grip thickness. An Action Base is genuinely useful for dynamic poses given the weight.

Builder Tips: A heavy panel line wash brings out the layered armour. The kit is largely dark green and beige so a black wash on the green and a dark brown wash on the beige works well. A satin topcoat sells the heavy-armour feel.

Build Notes

Snap-fit assembly. No glue required. Nippers recommended for clean part removal. Expect a 2-3 hour build with panel lining. Action Base sold separately and recommended given the kit's weight and the hammer's bulk. Recommended age 15+.

Assembly Guide

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.

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.

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

How does the Iron-Blooded Orphans HG series differ from other High Grade Gunpla series?

The Iron-Blooded Orphans (IBO) HG series is tailored to reflect the unique mobile suit designs and aesthetics of the "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans" anime. The kits often feature inner mechanical details known as the "frame system," which gives the models a greater range of articulation and poseability compared to some other HG series

I'm particularly interested in the Barbatos mobile suit. Is there a model for that in the HG IBO series?

Absolutely! The Barbatos is one of the standout mobile suits from the IBO series, and there are multiple iterations of the HG Barbatos available, reflecting its various forms and upgrades throughout the anime. Each offers a unique design and weaponry, ensuring you can choose the one that resonates most with you.

Given the distinct design of IBO mobile suits, are these HG kits more complicated to build than other High Grades?

While the IBO HG series showcases unique designs and the frame system, the complexity is still in line with other High Grade kits. They are designed to be accessible, especially for those familiar with HG builds. However, the frame system does add an enjoyable layer of depth for builders who appreciate inner details.

Additionally, decals are provided to enhance the model's appearance and capture the intricate designs of the mobile suits. Q5: I've heard about Tekkadan, the main faction in the IBO series. Are there HG kits representing other factions or mobile suits from opposing forces? A5: Indeed! While Tekkadan's mobile suits like the Barbatos are prominent, the HG IBO line also includes kits from other factions and forces, such as Gjallarhorn. This allows you to build and showcase the diverse range of mobile suits from the rich world of Iron-Blooded Orphans.
