Gundam Kimaris HG IBO 1/144

Gundam Kimaris HG IBO 1/144

  

Gundam Kimaris from the gundam series "Iron-Blooded Orphans"
The mobile suit of Gaelio Bauduin nick name: "Gali-Gali" by Mikazuki
This gundam has really a unique design in my opinion, it is not the usual that we have already seen before in the past, I mean it doesn't definitely have a "standard" gundam looks

The head makes me think it has a wizard hat or a beetle design, something like that....

this "demon" is really "fat" pppfftt XD

it has hidden shurikens inside its shoulders, you won't see usually shoulder gimmicks on a HG kits, the shoulder binders are also moveable.....

final thoughts about this kit:

Well, the gundam frame is nearly identical to the HG 1/144 barbatos 4th form with some minor changes, it isn't as poseable as barbatos due to the fact of its chunky armor.

The hidden slash disks/shurikens on its shoulders is a nice feature and also the hidden boosters inside of its legs is a nice gimmick in my opinion, it kinda reminds me the thrusters of tallgeese from "gundam wing" because of its opening gimmick. If you want to add more thrusters, there's an "option weapon set n°4" for this particular gunpla.

The feet are not long or big like the other gundam frames from IBO but you can't see it much because it is half covered by the chunky leg armor

It could have been nice if bandai has added a bent hand and/or an open hand so I could do more action pose but it is still ok, just a minor complaint (sure you can get the "weapon option set 7" but the open hand is not colored in violet).

At the end of the day, in the anime it is a mobile suit that will eventually replaced or should I say upgraded later so I think bandai didn't really bother too much about the planning stage of producing this gunpla.
