The MG Barbatos was already a pretty amazing kit, with a spectacularly detailed inner frame, and outstanding outer armor. This shows that not only does Bandai want to do more with the IBO Gundam Frame, but that the potential of what they can make is shown with what is one of the more unique Gundams from the series. What I loved about the MG Barbatos was that you could display it with all of it's weapons, and it had insane articulation. This kit has all that in spades, The pistols being safely and securely stowed behind the front skirts, the Rifle being able to be stowed in 3 positions on either of the side skirts, and the saber can stow in the 6 locations on both of the side skirts, make it very accessible and the inner frame makes it easy to pose. I worried that the Hunter's edge would make it hard to stand up on it's own, but surprisingly it can stand up with little to no issue. Display it with an action base to pull off more of those awesome poses we see in the show, and you got what might be the best MG release in recent years.
