HGUC Crossbone Gundam X2 Kai - Together with the Club G HGUC Crossbone Gundam X1 Kai.

Together with the Club G HGUC Crossbone Gundam X1 Kai.

This kit is the HGUC Crossbone Gundam X2 Kai, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. HGUC Crossbone Gundam X1is the base, with some parts swapped out and a dramatically different molded color scheme. New sculpts are applied to the head and four backpack thrusters, and the Buster Launcher has been added as a new weapon.

So the basic structure and layout are the same as the original kit, and it still delivers excellent articulation and joint strength — a clean HGUC kit through and through. That said, the color scheme has changed dramatically and the four thrusters have been redesigned into a fork shape, so the overall look feels quite different. The new Buster Launcher is another standout addition — both handles articulate smoothly, making it easy to get good poses. As a bonus, the Scissor Anchor that came with the Club G HGUC Crossbone Gundam X1 Kai is also included here.

Compared to the X1 Kai, which kept the same color scheme as the original kit and just added a few weapons and the ABC Mantle, this one has a much more distinct personality as a Crossbone variation. The quality is solid enough that if the style appeals to you, it's definitely worth picking up. :-)
