1/100 Gundam Barbatos Lupus Rex Review

This is a review of the Barbatos Lupus Rex from the series mobile suit gundam iron blooded orphans

[@DarthAndrea2814]

I'm glad you found the Silver paint as a primer useful. I use it as primer on All my kits now, works so much better.

[@ainabui8361]

I would kill for a master grade barbatos. Maybe next year...

[@blitzmustang1588]

A year has passed....

[@mephistophelesdearchon9870]

And it's on its way!

[@drowsy5094]

almost 2021 still no mg lol

[@jmc2830]

barbatos 4th form has had a mg for a few years. you can get an option set for the other 6 forms. but no lupus, no lupus rex..

[@Myexoticexperience]

Man you’ve got a good channel! I like your reviews keep it up!

[@travisnichols8011]

Haven't built this yet so I'm glad I've got your prospective

[@twilight_phantom2969]

Future floor polish is good for tightening the joints. Should enough to let it hold up the base. Also somebody should absolutely animate that, because it would be ridiculous.

[@NatakuGundam15]

loved this kit i may buy a second to make the last battle ver, i bet Jabman can do a epic project of the final battle ver kinda like a build off challenge against vegeta rekindle old competition

[@QuantaSolace]

I used a Gundam marker on my claws, which ended up giving them a heated look to them, since the yellow with my marker set is a darker yellow. I also ended up putting super glue on my kit's right arm joints so it can hold then weapon in one hand. The problem is the kit still can't hold the mace while the handle is fully extended in one hand.

[@suyo3380]

Can you make a custom Federation mobile suit, since you've made one for Zeon already?

[@Saito64th]

Floor polish, super glue in thin layers, or clear nail polish (or any color I hear works) would remedy the joint problems for the most part

[@derric0412]

I really hope for a Strike Freedom 2.0 in the future like they did with the Freedom

[@gatlonforsythe5657]

So ive been wanting to do a customise paint job on a kit ive been wanting and I've seen some of the kits you painted so stupid question is those sticks that you use in the foam to paint your parts are those toothpicks or something else

[@yami756]

Got one question do you know what the guage of wire is for the tail gimmick i seem to have lost mine also if you two hand the mace it holds it just fine

[@UC1180_]

Holding out hope for a master grade for the lupus and lupus Rex

[@adelumolaajibola4755]

+jabman025 thank you... I also thought the lupus Rex was the best iteration of the barbatos

[@Dino-vu8jk]

Can you switch that giant mace out for the smaller one or maybe the katana?

[@padenstewart781]

just plain cool

[@shukengkeng3494]

Sir. . Another tip for the lighting.. two on top facing the item and another two at the bottom facing the item.. and use white led instead of yellow.. a'ight!!..

[@SoulReaper287]

Hey, jabman025! Do you think you could do a review of the MG Zaku II 2.0 Black Tri Star? If you have it, of course. Thanks!

[@midnightthinker5479]

Piece were leg connect breaks had to fully customize one since it broke cheap plastic on it

[@ErwinBulacan]

This form of the Lupus always reminded me of War Greymon for some odd reason

[@DTKloves8]

The way I pose with the mace is having it upside down kind of stabbed into the ground like he might do after a battle while resting in the gundam.

[@dracocrusher]

Cool idea, I might try it sometime. I swear, at one point I managed to get the thing to hold the mace on its shoulder, but it was so unstable that I just wouldn't recommend it at all.

[@GuntPulp]

That mace would be so heavy it looks natural just dragging on the ground..looks like the only time it would be airborne is when he would go to swing it into something(or someone).

[@HazeBre3]

How do you get cheaper? The store that I got my Lupus from had it for $39.99 which was similar to MG kits like the RX-78-2, Zaku II, MK-II Titans Version and plenty others.

[@dracocrusher]

You might be able to search around, but I got mine from a Crunchyroll Deal for like around $32.99 or something, I think? Generally, I feel like the best place to order model kits is from Amazon, which currently has the Lupus Rex for $37.99 with free shipping. Which seems to be at the lower end of what it generally goes for. If anyone knows a better place to get them then that would be appreciated, but since so many things can be obtained with free shipping, I feel like it's a pretty solid deal because you usually save around $8 or so, which adds up.

[@survivalgames4949]

Posted on my b day!! Got my hg khysatia

[@gunplanut]

Only one of the three I need.

[@ZombryaTheDark]

you gonna review the RG Gundam Unicorn?

[@hieunguyen.777]

Yo Jabman025 are you review the rag unicorn Gundam I heard it one of the best unicorn

[@andrewestrada6531]

It's a solid gunpla I heard.

[@timoborgir]

do a review for mg musha tokugawa ieyasu in the next vid!

[@XJ2XGunpla]

for the lupus is still the best version of barbatos

[@Zetagundamastley1219]

Is your favorite No Grade still the Seravee Gundam?

[@jabman025]

+Kaido Fuchimoto probably yes I can't think of a better one

[@Ramen551]

It lready looks good

[@emmanmatito2551]

Does it have decals?

[@rottentea2980]

3:20 - Centuries later... still no rex

[@ZetaGre]

+jabman025 Lupus Rex looks like a Digimon.

[@anebros.9045]

Why did I get an add about a woman surviving lupus before this video

[@skinnyphd]

"Silent hill" wow, i cant believe you said that xD

[@dracocrusher]

Why? It's a popular horror franchise that a lot of people want to see brought back.

[@skinnyphd]

dracocrusher i already know that, im just saying what he said at the arms

[@trevorphilips4925]

well if you don´t have any ideas for one more thing i got one for you that is good for gundam bael

[@resonancetitangundam7800]

Now here's my question, how come the 1/100 Lupus looks taller then the Lupus Rex? Shouldn't that be the other way around? Awesome review. Now instead of a MG how's about a PG Barbatos Lupus Rex. Also I thought a MG was 1/100 is it not?

[@TheNIEMESIS]

MGs only come in 1/100 yet this is a no-grade kit, the equivalent of a HG in 1/100

[@pixelman6193]

Mobile Suit Gundam Primus Gundam X its the feet the regular lupus has basically heels on qnd the rex feet are more spread out

[@dracocrusher]

The Lupus is meant to look more proper and knight-like, overall (which is a big theme of the series that ends with the Lupus eventually fighting a 'dragon' to cement the connection). The Lupus Rex, on the other hand, is meant to be wider and more feral as a rejection of those old ideas, so it makes sense that it doesn't have the same type of straight-looking noble posture. Also, yes, all Master Grades are 1/100. But this kit just happens to be a non-MG 1/100, which means that the scale's accurate to the Lupus shown and stuff. At least, it SHOULD be unless someone on the design team fucked up BIG.

[@krysle3337]

dracocrusher I like to think the Barbatos started as a young knight that protected his kingdom from the beasts that terrorize their land aka the Hashmal and its drones and as it got older and became more experienced(Now it would be the Barbatos Lupus) he had to fight a demon(Hashmal) but in order to defeat it, he had to turn into a beast to slay it. (Y'know, either you die a hero or live long enough to become the villain) and that's when the Barbatos becomes the Barbatos Lupus Rex. That's kinda my head canon.

[@isaacreiner1623]

What Eva kit or figure was that?

[@jabman025]

old one from a company called xebec

[@darrenlee1480]

barbatos or lupus or lupus rex? which one the best

[@krysle3337]

Darren Lee IMO the Lupus is the best overall.

[@hongkhiemly4224]

Do the review of the eva unit 1

[@jabman025]

+Hồng Khiêm Lý it is just an action figure there is not much to review

[@andrewestrada6531]

Huh, that's funny. I just building the HG version of the gunpla.

[@habibienaufalilyasa3784]

Hg has better details for this one i think

[@TypeVertigo]

Duran Duran reference at the end. ;) 40 comments in and nobody else gets the "oh and one more thing" joke? I must be getting old

[@jabman025]

+TypeVertigo we both are

[@masterkent1]

Funny u say that. I listen to Duran Duran alot when I was a kid and I'm still 20

[@darthalucard]

Oh gee, it's almost like it's named after a demon or something... :P

[@blacknote6945]

Joe Von Dühm that's because it is . _.

[@thomashare6733]

I still personally prefer the Lupus to the Rex.

[@QuantaSolace]

I thought the same at one point, but this version ended up growing on me after seeing the model kit in this scale. It's more demonic/bestial looking, as it should since it's named after a demon.

[@seanyee7850]

Barbaetos

[@lucywu8484]

Second

[@mecha2192]

Can I give you a shout out in one of my videos? You have inspired me to do gundam review videos and would like to say thank you.

[@AngelCastillo-le3mc]

I really dont get the design of this thing. Barbatos a lopues look great, but this thing is a literal digimon.

[@jmc2830]

why bandai... you develop the mg barbatos... but no lupus? no lupus rex? no vidar? no bael? nothing!... i don't get it... why isn't this kit a mastergrade.. it looks pretty great, couldn't have need much more to meet mg standards.

[@jabman025]

give it time.....

[@fantastiCkiLler92]

I still prefer the regular lupus, the rex just looks unbalance and stupid with that arms imo.

[@aneeehs04]

These kind of reviews makes me sleep. Quit with the forced jokes please. :)
