So I finally finished my Barbatos and I noticed there was some sort of gap hole in its rear skirt, anybody know what its for?

Rising Dragon · 2015-10-20, 17:40

Probably for a model stand.

I don't think so, it has the usual hole in between its legs, the one in the rear skirt doesn't look like a hole where you insert a display peg.

Haven't built Barbatos yet but it could be a second peg for a model stand (to pose it in a different position) or for future add-on upgrades. They coudl very well use that hole to attach the flight booster or other gadgets.

So I want to ask does anyone here have experience with gold files?

How does it compare to diamond files?

They announced it quite some time ago, Im just posting the boxart which was just released

Im seriously torn whether to get this or not

Something tells me its a good kit, Bandai already have experience from its MG figure line so Im assuming this is a downscaled version

But at the same time.....you know.........

So after trying to put together my first gunpla in years I made the mistake of having my first gunpla be MG Sazabi kai ver.... it was a disaster, then my Gouf Custom the was actually decent was knocked off it's shelf by my brother and broke and lost multiple parts... I am bad at gunpla. On that note Barbatos looks sick.

I know, but Sazabi was my favorite Gundam after God Gundam and it looked so amazing, at the time I didn't know about adding colors, finishes ect to my kits nor did I know just how many pieces were there lol, I cut up my fingers just trying to get the parts out of the bindings, nearly broke some, needless to say I was mad at myself and decided to start with entry level kits, mainly high grade then work up, I love watching tutorials and reviews of more skilled gunpla builders though.

O-o the only way you could have done worse was starting up again with a PG.....well lesson learned I hope?

Hopefully your kit isn't completely wrecked either.......

Chibiloli · 2015-11-05, 05:32

Yeah, kinda stumped here, what exactly is that sword/rifle/bayonet-ya thing in the mock army set? I wanna customize my mock to look like the Gouf but I don't have any spare swords lying around, just this..... Thing, whatever it is.

Its exactly as you described it

Bit funky looking, but it is what it is

Obelisk ze Tormentor · 2015-11-05, 19:43

You know, first time I saw Orga's face on 1/100 Barbatos' box, I left wondering whether he'll be piloting Barbatos someday in the future just like how Jamil Neate piloted Gundam X (again) later on in his respective show?

Rising Dragon · 2015-11-05, 19:51

I suppose there's a chance Orga will pilot it at least once, but it'd probably be akin to like how Bellri piloted the G-Arcane in G-Reco, rather than the Barbatos being the hand-me-down. The show length and the mechanical concept behind the Barbatos in the show leaves little room for Mika to upgrade to a completely new Gundam.
