When it comes to Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, no mobile suit commands as much raw power and emotional weight as the ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos Lupus Rex. Mikazuki Augus’s final machine — ferocious, relentless, and utterly devastating — has inspired countless model kits. But none have attempted to capture it quite like the Wolfskin Heavy Industries 1/60 Logar Barbatos Lupus Rex Assembly Model with Alloy Skeleton.
This is not your average Gunpla. At 34cm tall, weighing 7 kilograms complete, and packing over 800 parts including a genuine die-cast alloy skeleton — this kit is a statement piece in every sense of the word. Let’s dig in.
What Is the Wolfskin Heavy Industries Logar Series?
Wolfskin Heavy Industries is a Chinese third-party model kit manufacturer that has made a name for itself producing large-scale, premium-grade assembly models with a focus on metal inner frames and impressive engineering. Their “Logar” series targets the 1/60 scale — a size rarely explored in the Gunpla space — delivering finished pieces that dwarf even Master Grade kits and rival small figures in presence and weight.
The Logar Barbatos Lupus Rex is one of their most ambitious releases to date: a massive, poseable, metal-frame tribute to one of anime’s most iconic berserker mobile suits.

The Alloy Skeleton: What Makes It Special
The headline feature of this kit — and the reason it weighs as much as a small dumbbell — is its genuine die-cast alloy inner frame. Weighing approximately 500 grams on its own, the metal skeleton provides two critical advantages over all-plastic builds:
First, structural integrity. At 34cm, a fully plastic kit would struggle to support its own weight over time, especially with heavy armor pieces and dynamic poses. The alloy frame distributes weight efficiently and holds poses with authority that plastic simply cannot match. Second, premium feel. Handling a kit where the core frame is actual metal elevates the entire building and display experience. There’s a satisfying heft and solidity that reminds you this is something genuinely special.
Scale & Size: Why 1/60 Changes Everything
Most Gunpla collectors are familiar with 1/144 (HG), 1/100 (MG), and 1/60 (PG) scales from Bandai. The 1/60 Logar kit sits in that coveted Perfect Grade territory — only here, you get the dramatic size without the Perfect Grade price tag. At 34cm tall, this kit will tower over every HG and MG kit on your shelf.
The Barbatos Lupus Rex, with its angular silhouette, sprawling tail blades, and oversized mace/great sword, is a mobile suit that was made to be displayed large. At 1/60, every detail of its brutalist, animalistic design comes through — from the exposed frame panels to the distinctive long tail blades that made it so visually iconic in the anime’s climactic final battles.
800+ Parts: What to Expect from the Build
With over 800 parts, this is unambiguously a long-term project. Expect a multi-session build that rewards patience and attention to detail. The combination of plastic armor panels and metal frame components means you’ll be switching between standard Gunpla assembly techniques and working with heavier metal parts — a satisfying new dimension for experienced builders.
The inner frame assembly — working with the alloy skeleton — will be the highlight of the build. Watching the metal bones of the Barbatos Lupus Rex take shape piece by piece is a uniquely tactile experience that sets this kit apart from anything in a standard Gunpla lineup.
First Batch Exclusive: The Cloak Accessory
First batch purchasers receive an exclusive Cloak accessory — a nod to the dramatic, tattered cloak aesthetic associated with IBO mobile suits and their Tekkadan warriors. This adds another layer of visual drama and display versatility to an already imposing finished piece. Once first batch stock is gone, this bonus disappears, so early orders are strongly recommended.
About Barbatos Lupus Rex
For those who may be newer to Iron-Blooded Orphans: the ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos Lupus Rex is the third and final configuration of the Barbatos frame, rebuilt and upgraded with parts salvaged from the massive Hashmal mobile armor. In the anime, it becomes a symbol of Mikazuki’s complete surrender to the Alaya-Vijnana system — a near-invincible berserker that wins battles but at tremendous personal cost.
Its distinctive features include the massive tail blade assembly, the great sword (repurposed Hashmal mace), beam weapons, and its raw, almost savage silhouette. It is one of the most recognisable and beloved Gundams of the modern era, and a natural candidate for this kind of large-scale premium treatment.
Is the Logar Barbatos Lupus Rex Worth It?
At MYR 290.00 (discounted from RM350), this kit offers remarkable value for what you’re getting. A 34cm finished model, a die-cast alloy frame, 800+ parts, and a first-batch exclusive cloak — for a price that undercuts comparable premium kits significantly. If you’re a fan of Gundam IBO, or simply want the most impressive conversation piece on your shelf, this is a must-buy.
