The 18th Build Divers HG release is the Impulse Gundam Lancier, a companion kit paired with the Impulse Gundam Arc released at the same time. Compared to the Arc, the molded colors, head shape, and weapons are all different, though the base body still reuses most of the HGCE Force Impulse Gundam's parts.

Just like the Arc, this is a very enjoyable kit to build thanks to its excellent articulation and joint strength, and it also features the same separation transformation into a Chest Core Flyer and Leg Flyer. You can swap upper bodies between the Arc and Lancier, or borrow the Arc's weapons for a combined loadout.

If possible, building it alongside the companion kit HG Impulse Gundam Arc would make for an even better experience. The overall quality is solidly above average, so if you like the look of it, this is an easy recommendation. :-)
