The HG Barbatos is the Gunpla that is truly accurate to the anime's Gundam Frame designs and by far my top 1 favorite in the HG IBO lineups. So thanks for re-reviewing this.

Barbatos feels more like action figures than model kit back then, the poseability is top notch. The little inner frames were a surprise back then.

I hope Mecha revisits the other kits in the line too. He dissed a few of them, and glossed over giving most a proper review. But that's probably because he was drunk in a lot of those like he mentioned in the Atlas revisit. I maybe mistaken, but I distinctly remember him disliking the design of Teiwaz mechs, which is weird since they were designed by Wataru Inata, who worked on AC6 and also designed the Peil mechs in G-Witch. Heck, even though it was designed by Ippei Gyoubu, he definitely did not like the Hugo, and unfavorably compared it to Metal Gear Rex in its review, which was funny, but comes off as disingenuous on a rewatch since that was the crux of his criticism then. Even if he doesn't buy new kits to build, just taking his old IBO kits from storage and working on them a bit would be enough; give them a bit of TLC with some panel lines, joint tightening, marker paint, and review them with the clarity they deserve, however differently his opinion changes. I'm sure it'll be more easy going and less time-consuming than building fresh kits ground up.

Hg barbatos was one of the very first gunplay kits I ever built, before I had ever even seen a Gundam show. Because of this kit I ended up watching IBO, and it became one of the most personaly important anime I had ever seen. Barbatos is the reason I'm a Gundam fan. And to this day IBO is my favorite anime

I always loved the IBO kits. Out from the box, they already have so much detail, but it is the parts interchangeability with other kits in the line. You can built a custom Gundam Frame by mix and matching parts, Graze army with building your own custom commander unit and units with weapon storage.

IBO was the first Gundam franchise that I was absolutely enamored with. Sure I knew about Gundam with beam sabers and the like but there was something so cool about Barbatos emerging from the ground and absolutely pulverizing that Graze. Chicks dig giant robots and we dig giant robots that are metal on metal cause its so primal.

The Hg Barbatos Lupus was the kit that paved the way for the beginning of my gunpla journey, i remembered how joyful and excited i was cutting all those nubs with only a wire cutter. I've built quite a collection till this day but even how more expensive or better quality newer gunplas have, none of those could brought me back to the emotions i had with Hg Barbatos Lupus. I would pay anything to live back the moment, the first ever gunpla that i've built.

I had not been in the gunpla hobby for over 20 years so these newer HG kits have been incredible compared to the old no grade kits I originally had. Every kit has needed some work or paint since the hobby of model building began and its still getting better every release. Hearing all these problems people have with and kit released within the last 20 years boggles my mind, I think they are incredibly well designed regardless of any hobby work needed or not. The ibo modular inner frame on the HG's are so genius I am surprised they dont make a few hundred kits from them along with a couple major series to watch.

This was my first and only Ibo model kit from the line and I had a lot of fun posing it but after about a few years I went back to see if I could still do poses with it and thankfully it can still do poses. No weakening of joints and everything still looks as good as it did when I first built the thing. Now that witch from Mercury is pretty much over and done with for the most part, I'm probably gonna go back to see about getting some model kits from Ibo that I missed maybe get my hands-on an Asteroth. Nice re review of this model though I will say I do miss the pilot faces that were on the boxes.

I think for the sheer customisation possibilities the IBO HG line is one of my favourites, sure not all parts are compatible with all frames but it's so easy to swap out parts for quick and easy options. For the recessed logos I used a thin layer of Citadel's red contrast like a panel liner and it worked really well. Speaking of which I wish Bandai still made the IBO Option sets in small runs, my Gusion Rebake FullCity needs his halberd.
@Jc88500

I absolutely love the HGIBO line. Despite their flaws, they're absolutely fantastic when you put work into them. (pfp checks out, I know.) By the way, option set 5 (as shown at around 12:48) isn't actually the proper set for open hands when it comes to this version of Barbie as it doesn't have the small white claws Lupus has. What you want for this Barbatos (and like 80% or the other IBO Gundams) is option set 7. Since Vidar's hands are just plain Gundam frame hands with no claws or anything attached, they work fine canonically with Barbie forms 1-6, Flauros, Gusion, Bael, Kimaris, etc. Just swap out the back of the hands.
