Together with the standard release HG Gundam Flauros (Ryusei-Go).

This kit is the HG Gundam Flauros (Calamity War Type), released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. Compared to the standard release HG Gundam Flauros (Ryusei-Go), the molded color has been changed to white and the weapons loadout has been expanded. There are no newly tooled parts, MS Option Set 7accessories have been recycled and added to the mix.

The accessories reused from the MS Option Set include 2 short barrel type cannons, 2 Assault knives, and 2 open hand parts. Swapping out the Ryusei-Go's long barrel type for the noticeably shorter short barrel also means you can now mount the Assault knives on the backpack. Everything else — the overall build and articulation features — is identical to the original, and it still delivers excellent articulation and solid joint strength. Maybe it's the dramatically different molded color combined with the more streamlined weapons loadout, but even as a color variant kit it gives off a surprisingly different vibe from the original.

Sure, at the end of the day it's just a color variant + recycled weapons version, but the real value here is being able to recreate scenes from the show. The overall quality is solid too, so if you're an Iron-Blooded Orphans fan, this is definitely a kit worth going after. :-)
