Barbatos's hands can do 90-degree adduction, which is unprecedented and it's the only gundam kit that can do it. That's already a big win

@jadenandres8238 5 years ago

The MG Barbatos is almost 2 years old? Damn, it felt like it released just last month.

@dragonpup5883 5 years ago

I am still surprised after the amazing MG Barbatos we haven't seen any other IBO Master Grades. They all use the same inner frame so it should be relatively easy to engineer.

@vamthedestroyer 5 years ago

All the 08th MS Team kits need a serious 2.0. That Gouf alone was probably THE coolest Gouf or specialized Zaku type ever made.

@Ra3_ar1adnE 5 years ago

The Exia needs a 2.0.

Give it the MGEX treatment with LEDs, basically a downscaled version of the PG in terms of features.

@vbrans 1 year ago

Yeah @MechaGaikotsu could we get a 2025 ver of this list pls

@steelsiphon 5 years ago

The EZ8 was my first ever Master Grade back in 2002. I loved it but the problems just became more and more obvious as years go on. Such a great series needs the 2.0 treatment.

I read the title and the first thing that came to my mind is "I bet his favourite mg is Barbatos." And then "Yep. Saw it coming."

Edit : I too want an MG Lupus as well mecha

@UMIF001 5 years ago

I miss the time when we are still hype waiting the MG Barbatos to release :)

@tekkadan097 5 years ago

The mg barbatos is my all time favorite kit in general. I still remember the shear excitement I felt when it finally released in my area. It’s a build I remember vividly. If you haven’t built it, do yourself a favor and build it

@charlesvincentformoso3379 5 years ago

Yeah I want a MG version of Lupus too, but I’m a huge fan of the Lupus Rex, which also needs a MG Version and as well as Vidar. Please Bandai, you already made the perfect inner frame for any future MG IBO kits

@batriam5921 2 years ago

Damn it hurts so much watching this 2 years later. It's been 4 years and still no MG Barbatos Lupus. WHY BANDAI?? You already have the gundam frame it can't take that much effort to make the Lupus

@Shroudalisk 5 years ago

I'm happy you mentioned AGE1-Normal, such an underrated MG kit

@daviid_ee 5 years ago

I built the Barbatos last year. It has remained in the same standing pose, but It's one that always catches my attention when looking at my display. It's so unique and different from my other gundam kits. Barbie and Mustachio (Turn-A) are awesome robots that break the usual gundam mold.

@misteramerica5893 5 years ago

I feel so old, I remember when God Gundam’s release with the inner-frame was so innovative and new.

@twraia 5 years ago

Would be really cool if you could do a video along the line of top 5 “untouchable” vs top 5 solid/posable gunplas. Having seen the state of some of those Unicorn MGs, it’d be good to know what are the biggest hand grenades after a while

@rinyzk 5 years ago

I recently got the Freedom 2.0 as my first MG and it was a great time to put together. And as you said, it did have a bit of looseness in some areas but it was nothing that a little reassembly didn't take care of.

@Jazard2k 5 years ago

Sadly, I agree with your assessment on the Ez8. It was also my first Master Grade kit and while mine has still held up well over the years, I wait with baited breath for them to come out with a 2.0 version.
