To achieve Full Burst mode, lower the shoulder beam cannons, raise the arms forward,
then lift the front skirt and side skirts so they face forward.

Also together with the HGAW Gundam X.

This is the HG Gundam X Jumaoh, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's based on a character from Gundam Build Fighters, HG Gundam X Maohand uses that as its base kit. Two system injection runners have been added, bringing quite a few design changes throughout. By the way, "Jumaoh" would literally translate to "Ten Demon King" in English, but perhaps because that sounds a bit odd (?), Bandai Korea's official name kept it as Jumaoh. The regular HG release uses the Korean reading "Mawang," while the Club G HG uses the original Japanese reading "Jumaoh," which causes a bit of confusion.

Visually, the head, shoulders, skirts, knees, and backpack have all been redesigned, and beam cannons have been added to the sides of the forearms and calves. The overall molded color of the body feels noticeably brighter than the Gundam X, and the newly added large X Cannon does a great job of creating that bold capital-X silhouette. The internal frame and joints themselves are identical to the base kit, still delivering solid articulation and sturdy joint strength. The signature pose of this kit is definitely the simultaneous fire (Full Burst) pose, where all the beam cannons across the body are deployed forward.

As for weapons, the beam rifle has been dropped and only two beam sabers are included. But since pulling off Full Burst mode is really the whole point of this kit, the sparse armament doesn't feel like much of a drawback. On top of that, you can also deploy the X Cannon forward for a bombardment mode, and the pose holds well, so it's actually pretty fun to set up.

All in all, this is a solid variation kit with quite a bit of new tooling applied throughout. If you're into all-guns-blazing poses like Full Burst mode in particular, this is probably a pretty appealing kit for you. :-)
