Key features
  1. Triple Blade System: A standout feature of Gundam Vidar is its triple blade system. This includes the main "Vidar's Sword," which is a sleek and powerful melee weapon. Additionally, it boasts two retractable short blades stored in the front skirts, ensuring that Gundam Vidar is always armed and ready for close combat scenarios.
  2. Advanced Foot Design with Thrusters: Reflecting Vidar's emphasis on speed and agility, the mobile suit is equipped with specialized foot thrusters. These "Hunter's Edge" features are not just for show – they allow Gundam Vidar to execute quick dashes and nimble maneuvers during combat, setting it apart from many other suits in terms of mobility.
  3. Sleek and Armour-Plated Design: Visually, Gundam Vidar distinguishes itself with a streamlined and armoured design, reflecting its pilot's identity and strategic mindset. The armour, especially around the faceplate and chest area, gives it a mysterious and knight-like appearance. This, combined with its blue and white colour scheme, makes it one of the more visually striking mobile suits in the series.

Incorporating an elegant design with tactical functionality, the Bandai 1/144 HGIBO Gundam Vidar offers Gunpla builders a model that mirrors the precision and strategic depth of its in-series counterpart. Whether posed for combat or display, it's a standout addition to any "Iron-Blooded Orphans" collection.

Bandai 1/144 HGIBO Gundam Vidar

The Bandai 1/144 HGIBO Gundam Vidar is a High Grade model kit from Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, piloted by the mysterious Gaelio Bauduin under his new identity. This kit captures Vidar's distinctive mono-eye design and sleek armour configuration that sets it apart from standard Gundam-type mobile suits. Named after the Norse god of vengeance, Vidar represents Gaelio's transformation and his quest for answers in the second season of IBO.

This kit includes 250+ parts and features full colour separation with minimal stickers required. The HGIBO Gundam Vidar uses the same advanced inner frame engineering as other Iron-Blooded Orphans kits, giving you excellent articulation for dynamic poses with the included handgun and burst saber weapons. Best suited for intermediate builders who appreciate the unique mono-eye aesthetic and want a mobile suit that stands out from traditional Gundam designs.

What Makes This Kit Special

  • Full Colour Separation: Moulded in blue, white, and dark grey plastic with accurate colour separation that looks great straight from the box
  • Dual Weapon System: Includes both the handgun for ranged combat and burst saber for close-quarters battle scenes
  • Minimal Stickers: Foil stickers provided for key markings, but the kit's colour separation means you can build without painting
  • Action Base Compatible: Pre-drilled holes allow connection to separately sold Action Base stands for flying poses

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

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. Q4: Do the Iron-Blooded Orphans HG kits come with decals and accessories relevant to the series? A4: Yes, they do! The IBO HG kits often come with an array of weaponry, like maces, swords, and rifles, true to what's seen in the anime. 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. Embark on your Iron-Blooded Orphans building journey and bring the fierce battles and iconic designs of the series to life in your collection!

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!
