Funimation announced during its panel at Anime Expo that it will be licensing both seasons of the hit anime series Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans in partnership with Sunrise. The first season will be released in two parts sometime in late 2017, while the second season will be released at some point during 2018.
Of course it's not a Gundam release unless there's talk of merchandise. Funimation and Sunrise also plan to release a special limited-edition that comes with an exclusive "High Grade 1/144 Scale Gundam Barbatos + Smoothbore Gun [Metallic Gloss Injection]" model kit. This variant will be exclusive to the home release of the anime, and will not be available be any other means internationally, including in Japan. Also included will be an artbook and a chipboard box with space for when the anime's second season is released.
