The 14th kit in the Build Customs lineup is the Powered Arms Powereder parts set. It's essentially a custom parts set designed to pair with the HG Powered GM Cardigan, but there are quite a few parts included that weren't in the Powered GM Cardigan itself. The newly added weapons include missile/gatling barrels, a forearm-mounted gatling pack, and the backpack unit itself.

You can combine the backpack unit with the rifle, sub-arms, and weapons to create one big composite weapon backpack. Since it's compatible with both dual-port and single-port backpack kits, it looks like it'll fit just about any HG kit out there. The three-section folding sub-arms are especially fun — deploy them and you can pull off some really dynamic, high-impact poses, so there's a good amount of play value here.^^

All in all, this is a pretty versatile weapon pack among the Build Customs lineup, and if you're looking to give your HG kits a fresh new look, it's definitely worth picking up and building on a whim. :-)
