First appeared in the Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans MS archive, Gundam Marchosias debuts its first High Grade GunPla release in March 2020! The Gundam's biggest feature are its back binders equipped on its back and waist. These can function as sub-arm unit for the Marchosias.
Marchosias features sharp armor edges, wide armors, and multiple purpose weapons including its knuckle guard equipped on its arm that can be used as a blow arm, and as a claw by reversing its position. The sub-arms stored in its four binders can deploy and hold daggers.
The Gundam Marchosias shares the same name with the 35th demon listed in the Ars Goetia.
- Gundam Marchosias was developed into Gundam Hajiroboshi after the Calamity War.
[ACCESSORIES]
- Large Sword
- Knuckle Guard
- Dagger x 4
I.... dunno what to say, im speechless
ReplyDileuOh, cool. It almost feels like a mashup of Barbatos and Bael. I hope the actual thing has at least some of that color separation the painted version does.
ReplyDileuto me it is the mash up looks of the barbatos and bael and the gimmick of the rebake
Dileudon't forget the sword and sheath gimmick of astaroth origin
Dileutrue just as if they threw Barbatos and Bael into an blender and poof perfection.
Dileuomg... did bandai actually announce something that's not p-bandai????
ReplyDileuI need this. I don't care how good the kit is, the MS's design far outweighs anything bad there could be about the kit
ReplyDileuI thought Bandai had learned their lesson with how their IBO HG kits look with those stickers, but boi, they still haven't.
ReplyDileuThose red and yellows are everywhere.
With a price of 24,000 yen it should have some decent seperation save for some places.
DileuYou mean 2,420 Yen. 24,000 yen is pretty much beyond the price of even a Perfect Grade kit.
DileuThis makes me think of what the bael would look like upgraded
ReplyDileuYikes, looks like we're getting a really big sticker sheet. All of the red except the head, collar, chest, crotch, knees, and feet. All of the yellow, except the middle part of the v-fin, and the chest. Those red stickers on the tips of the binders are gonna be the worst. The overall design is pretty cool though.
ReplyDileupaint is always an option
Dileuy'all just lazy to paint
DileuIf anyone is wondering, this is what Gundam Hajiroboshi used to look like during the Calamity War before looking like what it is now.
ReplyDileuMy god, a new HG IBO kit!
ReplyDileuThere is hope after all!
I haven't built an IBO kit in such a long time so i'm glad i'll be able to build another.
DileuThere's all the P-Bandai kits but they get expensive so i'd rather focus on retail kits for now.
Gundam Hajiroboshi's real form, complete with a real demon name.
ReplyDileuWait as a follow up, this is the precursor to the Hajiroboshi..... GIMMIE THE HAJIROBOSHI TO BANDAI PLEASE!
ReplyDileuCalling it, Hajiroboshi will be P-Bandai if this is a mass release.
DileuI already have a color scheme in mind for the repaint.
ReplyDileuis this the calamity war version of hajiroboshi?
ReplyDileuYeah, this is Hajiroboshi's real identity and he's amazing to see.
DileuOh my god! my IBO fanboi senses have been activated!
ReplyDileuPLZ BANDAI make Ortlinde and Gremory models kits too!
Yeah bandai make a model kit of those pls.
Dileucoming soon, p-bandai gundam hajiroboshi :D
ReplyDileuwith a higher price point, it better have good color separation and FEWER STICKERS. (plz bandai...)
ReplyDileuWoaaaahh! Could it be? Our first explicitly pre-Calamity War Gundam Frame? Excluding the Flauros since all it got was a repaint?
ReplyDileuHuh? What about Astaroth Origin?
DileuDon't forget Gundam bael kimaris vidar is also calamity war variants
DileuOh my gosh, I forgot Bael, Kimaris and Astaroth, whoops! I'm a dummy! :'D
DileuThis right here is what Bael SHOULD have looked like.
ReplyDileuIs Hajiroboshi getting a HG P-Bandai release?
ReplyDileuCan we get a hg of the gremory gundam?
ReplyDileuPls. Bandai
Some of the armor looks too large to fit on the hg gundam frame. Like a little kid trying on their older sibling's clothes.
ReplyDileuStill getting it though.
This is really cool!
ReplyDileuLooks like Hajiboroshi will be a P-Bandai.......
ReplyDileuIf bandai decides to use their new tech on this kit then woo-hoo majority of the red parts should be actual parts if not...
ReplyDileuBig sticker sheet time
Looks sick! Will definately buy it!
ReplyDileu"Bael on steroids"
ReplyDileu- someone on the internet
I hope Bandai make Gremory and Vual Yuhana too..
ReplyDileuI wanna see what is Seere looks like...
ReplyDileuDammit Bandai give as a upgrade Angel class types ver of ASW-G-01 Gundam Bael just like the new Gundam frame ASW-G-35 Marchosias and Hajiboroshi plsssssssssss.................................
ReplyDileuThere's no angel class type of gundam frame in the first place.
DileuI want to know exactly which Gundam Frame runner this kit uses. If I were to guess, it'll probably be the Gundam Frame 4 runner, like Bael, Barbatos 6th Form, Lupus and Lupus Rex, but that's just going by who designed Marchosias (Naohiro Washio).
ReplyDileuI am legit baffled that they refused to use Frame 4 for everything in Season 2. It's literally the same frame, but square hole polycaps for the feet.
DileuI mean, not everything was a Gundam Frame...
DileuAlso one of them was literally Kimaris
Oh that boxart is straight KILLER. Seems to be a huge step up since the last IBO kit we got
ReplyDileulet's hope those arm joints can handle the weight of that large sword
ReplyDileuI'm sure it can.
DileuThe Bastard Mace, on the other hand, that might be a different story... I'd say that our best equivalent might be the Sledgehammer of Gundam Astaroth Origin, if you wanted a point of comparison.
Do you think a Dengeki Hobby OOB build picture would be taken for this kit? im really curious as to how huge the stickers are going to be and where.
ReplyDileuThey show the contents of the box on YouTube. Some big red stickers but not a lot.
ReplyDileuNew pix look great, knew it would look better once those 'wing' binders got moved down. I'm definitely not worried about a sticker sheet because I'll be grey/silver scaling mine!!!
ReplyDileuIf I were to guess from the common trait shared between all those shots of the binders being down, it appears to be a close combat configuration. It's not using any of its swords in those shots, just its Knuckle Guards.
DileuThis design makes even less sense than the ZZ gundam and even some of the G Gundam designs.
ReplyDileuThese new shots are making Marchosias look like a chonky boi.
