【Pre-Order】Gundam Barbatos Iron-Blooded Artisan Keycap — 3-Key Set 8-Point Articulated Armor | Light-Through V-Fin | Magnetic Weapon System | Cherry MX / Gateron Cross-Stem Compatible

What's This Product

Based on the iconic ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos from Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, this 3-key artisan keycap set brings Mikazuki Augus's legendary mobile suit to your mechanical keyboard. The set includes a detailed Barbatos head keycap (featuring a light-through V-Fin and red flame effects) flanked by two articulated shoulder armor keycaps — all crafted from high-strength resin with hand-applied metallic paint detailing.

The 8-point movable armor system lets you pose the shoulder panels in different configurations, while the magnetic long-handled weapon accessory snaps onto the keycap frame for an authentic battle-ready display. A fully functional keycap set that doubles as a premium desk display piece for any IBO fan.

"Iron-Blooded" Mecha Replica — ASW-G-08 Authentic Design

• Faithfully recreates the Gundam Barbatos's signature silhouette across three detailed keycaps: the horned head with glowing V-Fin and red flame effect pieces, plus two shoulder armor keycaps bearing the ASW-G-08 BARBATOS markings. The raw mechanical armor texture, exposed frame details, and battle-worn aesthetic capture the ferocious combat presence of Mikazuki's machine.
• Every surface is hand-painted with metallic accents and weathering details — from the chest vents to the demonic horn crest — bringing the Iron-Blooded Orphans anti-hero to life on your desk.

8-Point Articulated Shoulder Armor + Magnetic Weapon System

• Each shoulder armor keycap features an independent movable panel system with 8 total articulation points across both shoulders. Switch between compact typing mode, expanded battle stance, or full-display configuration — each pose locks securely in place for stable everyday use.
• The included magnetic long-handled weapon snaps directly onto the keycap frame via embedded rare-earth magnets. Pose it for display, then detach it for safe transport — the attachment is secure enough for desk display but easy to remove when needed.

Light-Through V-Fin — Powered by Your Keyboard's Backlight

• The V-Fin is crafted from semi-translucent resin designed to channel your keyboard's existing LED backlight, creating a glowing horn effect that syncs with your RGB setup. This keycap does not contain any built-in LED or self-illuminating components — the glow effect relies entirely on your keyboard's backlight passing through the translucent material.
• The brighter your keyboard's backlight, the more vivid the V-Fin glow. Works with any keyboard equipped with per-key RGB or top-mounted LED lighting. The red flame effect pieces add dynamic visual impact even without backlight.

Care & Maintenance

• ▸ Clean with soft dry microfiber cloth only — do not use alcohol, solvents, or abrasive cleaners
• ▸ If shoulder armor articulation feels stiff, gently wiggle the panel — do not force. Avoid repeated reposing to prevent joint wear
• ▸ Attach and detach the magnetic weapon gently. Repeated rough handling may weaken the magnetic bond over time
• ▸ Store in original display box when not installed. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight to prevent resin yellowing
• ▸ Use a standard keycap puller for removal — never pull by armor parts or weapon accessory
