This is the HG Tekkadan Complete Set, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It bundles together four kits — HG Gundam Barbatos Lupus Rex, Gundam Flauros (Ryusei-Go), Man Rodi, and Gundam Gusion Rebake Full City — along with several new runners and runners from MS Option Sets 3, 7, and 9.

First up, HG Gundam Barbatos Lupus Rex gets a brand-new weapon called the Anti-Ship Lance Mace, plus some parts from Option Set 9 included for the collaboration combo. The sizeable Anti-Ship Lance Mace can be mounted vertically on the back using a joint part, and it features a slide gimmick that moves the center section forward and backward.

HG Gundam Flauros (Ryusei-Go) gets the Assault Knife and Short Barrel Cannon from MS Option Set 7, plus a newly sculpted large Dainsleif warhead. With the large Dainsleif warhead, you can recreate one of the show's most memorable scenes — the pilot's self-proclaimed "Super Galaxy Cannon."

HG Landman Rodi is essentially the existing HG Man Rodi bundled together with the Landman Rodi legs from MS Option Set 9. The color scheme has been changed to the Unit 2 orange and beige combination, and as a result the B runner is included in duplicate in two different colors — meaning one full runner's worth of parts ends up as leftover junk..

HG Gundam Gusion Rebake Full City is the biggest winner in this set, getting a hefty amount of additional weaponry. For starters, the dedicated rifle runner — which only came with two in MS Option Set 9 — is now included twice over, so you can finally properly pull off that four-rifle action scene. The kit also gets a long-range flight backpack unit to attach along with new chest armor, but this shifts the center of gravity quite far backward, and the already somewhat weak joint strength of the original kit makes it really hard to keep standing upright. On top of that, a newly sculpted railgun has been added, along with the halberd from MS Option Set 3.

You can also combine separate large parts to recreate the new transport booster, though unfortunately the two propellant tanks need to be borrowed from the separately sold HG Gundam Barbatos & Long-Distance Transport Booster
Kutan Type IIIThat's a bit of a letdown — for a kit of this volume, it would've been nice if they'd just thrown in the propellant tank parts too.

All in all, this is like a big gift set bundling four kits together with a generous spread of weapons and equipment. Since the base HG kits were already solid to begin with, Iron-Blooded Orphans fans should find this a pretty satisfying package. :-)
