Bandai Spirits announced a model kit of the ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos Lupus from the Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans anime series. The release date and price of the new model kit has yet to be decided, and more information will appear in the future. [Thanks, Hobby Watch!]

The new Gundam Barbatos Lupus model kit is part of the MG 1/100 (Master Grade) line of scale Gunpla kits. It was announced on February 21, 2025 during the Gundam NEXT Future -Final- event held in Tokyo. Since its production was just announced there is currently no prototype of the model kit, although we might see Bandai Spirits share a look at it as its development progresses.

The creation of the new Gunpla was decided as part of the celebration of the 10th anniversary of the Iron-Bloodeed Orphans anime, which premiered in Japan on October 4, 2015 and ran until April 2, 2017. The original anime has 2 seasons of 25 episodes each, and a new anime based on the Iron-Blooded Orphans: Urdr-Hunt mobile game is currently in production.

The new Gundam Barbatos Lupus model kit from the Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans anime is currently in development, and information on its release date and price will appear at a later date. The Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans anime is available on Crunchyroll.

An anime based on the mobile game, Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans: Urdr-Hunt, is in production. There’s no information on when to expect it, but there is an announcement trailer available to watch.

The trailer shows plenty of characters from the game, such as protagonist Wistario. You can watch the trailer via the game's official Twitter . Urds-Hunt takes place in P.D. 323, and focuses on Wistario, who hails from the Radonitsa Colony near Venus. Venus acts as a prison colony, and most of the people living there are not legally recognized. One day, Wistario runs into a girl named Korunaru Kousa, who tells him that she knows the way to the Urdr-Hunt.

Iron-Blooded Orphans Urdr-Hunt will end service on January 11, 2024, about five years after its debut in January 2019. It’s hard to say from the timeline if Bandai Namco intended for the anime to act as a swan song for Urdr-Hunt, or if it planned on releasing one even before it decided to end the game.

Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans originally ran in Japan from 2015 to 2017. It takes place in the Post Disaster era, which is separate from the Universal Century timeline. The story follows Mikazuki Augus, who pilots the Gundam Barbatos. The story follows a group of child soldiers who form the Tekkadan, which is a private security company, after rebelling against their former bosses for trying to use them as disposable decoys.

An anime for Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans: Urdr-Hunt is in production. However, it’s not clear as to what format it’ll appear.

Mobile Suit Gundam is popular worldwide, but in its home of Japan it's practically a cultural institution. And though the original "Universal Century" Gundam setting tends to get most of the attention, spinoffs like 2015's Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans are popular in their own right. That might be why Bandai's honoring the fifth birthday of the series by releasing a new, bespoke clothing and accessory line inspired by the show [Thanks, Famitsu!].

Courtesy of the Bandai Apparel Division (the same folks that brought the Kamen Rider clothing line into being), the Iron-Blooded Orphans 5th Anniversary Collection will be sold through Bandai's Gundam-centric clothing store, STRICT-G and the Bandai online outlet.

The items include Iron-Blooded Orphans-themed T-shirts, hoodies, and other accessories like tote bags and pins. Rather than emblazon the merchandise with pictures of mecha or characters, the designs evoke the show more obliquely, through iconography and quotations. That could be a plus for a customer who prefers to keep their fandom a bit more low key.

For example, though most of the items in the line feature the stylized fleur-de-lis-like logo of Tekkadan, the main group in Iron-Blooded Orphans, one hoodie design inspired by the character McGillis Fareed features nothing more than a candy-colored logo that says "Chocolate Guy."

The design is a reference to McGillis' first in-person meeting with series protagonist Mikazuki Augus. After narrowly avoiding a traffic accident involving Mikazuki's friends, Fareed tries to make it up to the young teens with some candy. Mikazuki, never much for ing names, refers to Fareed as "The Chocolate Guy" for much of the series moving forward.

The Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans 5th Anniversary clothing line is available for preorder via the STRICT-G online store.
