hello. i am yoon gundam of open to complete! once we open a gunpla, we assemble!! ink! and decal until it’s complete! we are supposed to build an mg today. but we’ll be making a different grade that’s the same size as mg! it’s none other than!!! oops, light reflecting... the new grade! bandai’s ambition!! high-resolution model barbatos!
it’s the model with much to talk about, both good and bad! i’m excited to be able to touch this model... the first model of the new grade is barbatos. it feels out of blue... today, since it’s a new grade. let’s open and check it first, and then assemble! before that, the product description! it was released in april 2016! it was released in march in japan, but april in korea!
the price is 17,280 yen (16,000 before tax)! in korea, it’s about 170,000 won ($150 us) the price is as high as pg... let’s open the box now!! careful not to scratch the box~~ ooooohhh~ here’s what’s inside the box!! looks like this is the external armor. then let’s look at the other side first. for the hi-res model, the inner frame is pre-built!
frame box cover! the frame looks like a figure. let’s open it!! let’s see now. the frame feels like a figure! it’s quite heavy. there are a lot of metallic parts. oh, this came off. hold on! it came off while i was playing with it.
here’s metal! there’s metal too! although the body overall is plastic c’mon, focus.. it’s all metal. metal~ metal~ so much metal! it’s heavier because of the metal~ also, you can see lots of cylinders. there are many interconnecting cylinder gimmicks on the back, shoulder, and waist.
we’ll check them further in the review! let’s look at the movement right now. moving the arms. there. but it feels like the movement is stiffer... well i suppose it’s enough. oh no... the hand fell off. ah... see here? the arm cylinder came out. there. the arm cylinder falls out easily...
next is the shoulders... the cylinder moves with it. it moves well. looks like the cylinder doesn’t stay fixed on the shoulders too. ah, it’s finally back in. makes me sweat. the shoulder rotates well but it comes off well too... agh, it’s off again... the gimmicks are nice, but the fixity isn’t as good...
let’s look at other parts. it moves back and forth nicely. let’s turn the wai... huh?why is it to stiff?it feels like it might break... let’s check the waist later... it might break... now we’ll look at the legs.the hip joints are so stiff. it’s so stiff i’m afraid it might break too. see how this bends? the ankle bends well too. you can see how nicely the cylinder mechanism works from the back. ah, and now i see that there are power lines here.
the part on the upper body is rubber... but the ones on lower body is plastic. the upper part moves a lot and the lower part don’t, so that’s probably why it’s plastic. overall the joints are quite stiff...and the waist don’t move well at all. we’ll check them again while assembling. if you look at it once again the detail itself is better than many other models. you could consider it mg, same with the size. there are lots of parts.and here’s the long sword.it’s quite large. that looks nice. the mold detail and quality is good. the white armor parts are all top-coated.
if you look at the color parts, the yellow parts actually look shiny like gold. same with the blue and red parts. and here... let’s check on the box... this part and the parts on the shoulders are separate colored part. and they’re also top-coated!hg and 1/00 before were just using stickers. but just as they call it hi-res, they paid a lot of attention to these details. oh and here’s something i noticed.i wonder if it shows on screen...oh, let’s open the bag. (checking for missing parts) if you open and looksee these?
they are undergated. since they have top-coated partsit looks like they decided to make them undergated to reduce the gate marks. and there’s a sticker... there’s only one foil sticker. i guess you don’t need a lot of stickerswith this many color separation. now let’s start assembling. assembly is complete~~ (usually we do the review right after the assembly,but this time i had to do the review later, so you can see i’m wearing different clothes. i hope you understand.)
now we’ll look at each part. with this kind of quality, i think it would’ve worked out as a limited edition too. first the exterior... see the topcoat reflecting the light? the external armor is all coated. there’s nothing much to say about the armor. personally the problem lies on the frame... i know it’s the first model for this method but it’s too bad. and while i build it i don’t know if it’s just me, but if you look on the inner arm see this part on the arm?i build it according to the instructions. i check many times.
but it’s not the external armor that’s not fixed it’s the inner frame that’s coming off. i think it’s a problem with a faulty part.kind of like the luck of the draw. it’s such a shame. among problems on the frame...okay... it’s fine! let’s just say the movement is limited because it’s made with metal. but the cylinder!! it’s okay if you just move slightly, but if you move more than that, the cylinder comes off. see the cylinder in the arm too? if you move too much, it comes off. it’s off now too. see how the cylinder came apart?the shiny part you see is what came out of the cylinder.
i thought of something while i was assembling...if barbatos came out as an mg, maybe it would be like this. there are several gimmicks, but let’s look at one important gimmick. those who have made barbatos before would know that there’s nothing different about the normal form. but there’s one major difference. it’s the backpack.let’s separate the backpack and look. what’s different?first, it’s the separate colored parts. even this part... the one that looks like bird’s eye everything you see is all separate parts. that’s also a separate part.this is commendable. it seems that bandai really thought hard about it.
the gimmick that’s different here isthis part can be pulled out. see here? especially this part!if you push them a little, they stick out. you can equip the weapons using this.you can install the holder here and equip the weapon on it. you can also equip the smoothbore gun on the other side. this is the new gimmick. so that’s why i thought if it comesout as mg, it would be like this. hirm grade seems to get its motif off mg in terms of gimmicks, features and movement if a new model comes out on this grade line,
the armor and coating would be highest quality. with the gimmick themselves similar to mg. now i will explain the weapons.there are 2 weapons included in high-resolution model. first, the long sword. i partially colored the blade, so keep that in mind. and the smoothbore gun.these two are included. let’s look at long sword first.the long sword also has topcoat on the black part. see how it’s shiny? the grey guard? it’s assembled with separate parts. it’s bigger than the 1/100 barbatos’ long sword.
there’s no special gimmick on the sword, so that’s all there is. let’s look at smoothbore gun next.the smoothbore gun also has separate parts. but while i was assembling, i saw that its color was a bit too chocolatey. i thought this part was dark like black... but it was chocolate... other than that, there’s nothing really odd about it.as for the gimmick, you can pull this out and fold. the grip can also be pulled in and out. you keep it like this when you equip and shoot the gun.and fold it when you store it on the backpack. you hook it on the part that’s protruding out of the backpack. that’s it for the weapons.
there are different hands included like junk parts. first is for holding the sword. second is a fist.third is an open hand. fourth is for holding the gun.it includes 4 different type of hands in total. now let’s equip the sword. you can equip it on the hand, and put the hand back on the arm. done~~because it has metal joint, the arm stays well. the palm is also like silicon, so it stays fixed too. it’s very stable for action pose.next we’ll equip the smoothbore gun. since it uses another hand, i’ll put the hand on it first.
it’s on. now let’s equip it.pull out the holder from the backpack like before. you need to equip the gun on the backpack first!hook it on the holder. now pull it off like that.switch the gun form and like this... push the hand back in! like this!! oh, this came off. putting it back... now it’s equipped! you can equip the smoothbore gun like so. tada! now you can make any action pose you want!! well~ the stiff joints help with action pose stability. but... it’s still too stiff so that’s a negative. there are also places that are too loose.
also, it’s a shame that the detailed cylinders fall out while moving. for me i think there’s faulty part too. if you just look at the exterior armor, it’s top quality. it has full topcoat and the detail is great. it’s the frame that’s subpar. i hope it gets improved later. in other high-resolution models, i hope they improve the frame. i like barbatos and other orphans mobile suits, so i like it... but if you’re not really into barbatos...this guy is pretty expensive.
160,000 won is almost a pg price. consider that too. that’s all for the review of high-resolution barbatos!! that ends this week’s open to complete. please subscribe and like the videoif you had fun watching! it’s great help to us.see you next week~ bye~
