MGSD Barbatos Full Body LED Lighting Kit with Remote Control -Easy DIY Gundam Model Customization
MGSD Barbatos Full Body LED Lighting Kit with Remote Control – Easy DIY Gundam Model Customization RGB remote-controlled lighting kit for the Bandai MGSD ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos (Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans). Features color-changing eye lights with breathing effects, synchronized body illumination, and a wireless remote. Model kit not included.
Who This Is For
- ▸ MGSD Barbatos builders — who have completed their kit and want to add dynamic RGB lighting effects without investing in a high-end multi-zone system.
- ▸ DIY modelers — comfortable with basic frame modification (slot carving, wire routing) who want a straightforward, remote-controlled lighting setup.
- ▸ Iron-Blooded Orphans fans — looking to recreate the ASW-G-08 Barbatos's glowing eyes and illuminated armor panels as seen in Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans.
RGB Eye Lights with Breathing Effects
- The dedicated eye LED module delivers vivid color-changing effects and a smooth breathing rhythm that mimics the ASW-G-08 Barbatos's signature gaze from Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans. Controlled via the wireless remote, you can cycle through static colors or set the eyes to pulse automatically — giving the model an organic, alive-on-the-shelf presence that a static display cannot match.
- The clear acrylic light guide panel included in the kit diffuses the eye LEDs evenly, eliminating hot spots and producing a clean, uniform glow across both eyes without visible individual LED points.
Synchronized Full-Body Illumination
- Five body LED strips run through the torso, shoulders, and legs, producing a synchronized breathing effect that pulses in unison with the eye lights. This coordinated illumination highlights the MGSD Barbatos's armor panel lines and internal frame details — features that are largely invisible under standard display lighting.
- The body lights use pre-cut wiring with snap-fit connectors, designed to route through the MGSD frame without excessive disassembly. The adhesive putty included in the kit allows secure positioning of LED strips without permanent modification to the plastic parts.
Wireless Remote Control — No App Required
- The included remote puts full control in your hand — switch between color modes, adjust breathing speed, toggle between eye-only and full-body modes, or turn the system on/off without touching the model. No app download or Bluetooth pairing required; the remote works out of the box.
- This is a single-zone system (all body LEDs synchronize together), not a multi-zone setup. If you need independent control of individual body sections, consider a multi-zone kit instead. For most builders, the synchronized breathing effect is sufficient and significantly simpler to install.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this kit include the Gundam model?
No. This is an LED lighting kit only. You need the Bandai MGSD ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos (released October 2023) as the base model, which must be purchased separately.
Q: Is this a KOSMOS brand kit?
No. This is a third-party LED lighting kit, not part of the KOSMOS product line. It uses a simpler single-zone remote control system rather than KOSMOS's multi-zone app-based control. It is priced accordingly as an entry-level lighting option.
Q: Do I need to modify my MGSD Barbatos?
Yes. Some parts require slot carving to accommodate wiring, and LED strips need to be routed through the internal frame. Pre-cut wiring and snap-fit connectors are included to simplify the process, but you should be comfortable with basic model customization. Refer to the installation tutorial video to assess the difficulty before purchasing.
Q: Can I control the eye lights and body lights separately?
No. This is a single-zone system — the eye and body LEDs synchronize together through the remote. The remote lets you change colors, toggle breathing effects, and switch between eye-only and full-body modes, but you cannot set different colors for the eyes and body independently. If you need independent zone control, consider a multi-zone LED kit.
Q: What batteries does it use?
The kit includes a battery housing but does not include batteries. Please prepare the appropriate batteries before installation. Check the battery housing for the correct type and quantity.
Q: Is there an app for this kit?
No. Control is handled entirely through the included wireless remote — no app download, Bluetooth pairing, or smartphone required. The remote works out of the box with preset modes and color options.
