This kit is the HGUC Base Jabber (Unicorn Zeon Remnants Color Ver.), released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. Compared to the standard release Base Jabber [Unicorn Ver.], the molded colors have been significantly changed — though it's a straight color variant kit with no new mold parts whatsoever.

So all the gimmicks and features are identical to the original, and for this review you really just need to take a good look at the color changes. The retro color scheme does give it quite a different feel. That said, since all the dark reddish-brown areas are covered entirely with seals, there's a lot of seal work involved and it can look a bit off, so it'll probably be a love-it-or-hate-it situation. At its core, the colors match up nicely with the standard release HGUC Marasai Unicorn Ver..

So while the color change is significant, the heavy seal work is a bit of a letdown. Still, it pairs well with the HGUC Unicorn Ver. kits, so if you like the color scheme, it seems like a perfectly worthwhile accessory kit to go for. :-)
