Series Assembly Guide FAQ

Bandai MGSD Gundam Barbatos

Master Grade engineering in an SD frame. The MGSD Gundam Barbatos brings MG-level detail and articulation into a super-deformed kit. It stands about 115mm tall and captures the Gundam Frame look from Iron-Blooded Orphans in a chunky, characterful SD form.

Articulation. There is a lot of movement for an SD kit: movable axes in the torso, a swing mechanism on the shoulders, and synchronised arm and elbow articulation. The knee armour moves with the legs, and the rear knee armour moves independently so it does not block the bend.

The MGSD touches. The twin eyes use a double-layer clear structure for a real glow effect, and clear parts appear on the chest, knees and shoulders. The kit uses Real Metallic Gloss Injection for a metallic sheen on the fine detail, straight off the runner.

Weapons and gimmicks. The backpack mounts a sword, a 300mm smoothbore gun and a mace. The smoothbore gun extends and rotates 180 degrees into a storage mode. The mace has the MGSD gimmick where pushing the handle extends the tip and unfolds four blades in one motion.

What's in the box. The Barbatos, a mace, a sword, the 300mm smoothbore gun, a joint parts set, and a marking sticker sheet.

Build notes. Snap-fit, no glue needed. Moulded in colour with the gloss and clear parts doing a lot of the work, so it looks sharp without paint.

Fast Australian shipping. Order before 2pm on a weekday and it ships the same day from Brisbane. Orders over $199 ship free within Australia.

What to watch for. Not a starter kit despite the size. It has a high part count and fine articulation, so take your time. The gloss-injected parts show fingerprints, so handle them clean.

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 does MGSD mean?

Master Grade SD. It brings MG-level detail and articulation into a super-deformed kit, about 115mm tall.

What weapons come with it?

A mace, a sword and a 300mm smoothbore gun, plus a joint parts set and marking stickers.

What's special about the mace?

Pushing the handle extends the tip and unfolds four blades in one synchronised motion, an MGSD original gimmick.

Do I need to paint it?

No. It uses clear parts and Real Metallic Gloss Injection, so it looks sharp straight off the runner. Stickers handle the markings.

Is it a beginner kit?

Not really. The size is SD but the part count and articulation are closer to an MG, so it suits a builder with some experience.

Amazing Build, my Grandson loved it!

I purchased this kit and one other for my grandsons birthday. He loved building it and found it easy to follow. My order arrived in super fast time and was beautifully packed. It even had some wonderful freebies in the box which was really great. Excellent product and service in every way!

Great selection of kit, excellent value for money

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!
