As shown, the left/right Beam Rifle Mk-II units can be detached,
and the front cockpit unit can be removed and mounted on the back of an MS.

The side units can be split into three parts: the Beam Rifle Mk-II, a small shield, and so on.

Four additional joint parts are included for compatibility with other HG kits..
though honestly you probably won't find much use for them.

The forearm joint unit is compatible with the shield mounting holes on most Gunpla forearms.

A lot of kits don't have holes in the backpack, so hanging the backpack unit on as well is pretty tricky.

The third Build Fighters custom parts set is the Build Booster Mk-II. Just like the previous releases, this is essentially the Build Booster Mk-II that came bundled with the HG Build Gundam Mk-II, now sold separately — with four bonus joint parts thrown in as well.

Like its predecessors, it's well designed to be compatible with a wide range of HG kits. The forearm joint parts in particular fit nicely into the shield mounting holes on most HG kit forearms, letting you attach the Beam Rifle Mk-II unit. That said, most HG kit backpacks don't have dedicated holes, so attaching the backpack unit tends to be difficult in many cases. As for the four separately included joint parts.. it's honestly hard to find a good use for them;

Anyway, the Beam Rifle Mk-II forearm unit is a pretty fun addition that works well with a lot of kits, so if you've got your eye on this unit specifically, there's no need to pick up the HG Build Gundam Mk-II — the Build Booster Mk-II on its own will do just fine. :-)
