Together with the HGUC Gundam F91.

This kit is the HG Gundam M91, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. Based on the HGUC Gundam F91released as a standard release, a good number of the exterior parts have been changed. Even though only about 30% of the parts were swapped out, the remodel is done so well that the overall look feels completely different.

Design-wise, the head, shoulders, chest, skirt, knees, and feet have all been changed. The Vsbr has moved from the backpack to the side skirt position, and in its place a large Booster has been added. The existing bazooka has been remodeled into the M Lance, and through all these changes the kit has been reborn into quite a fresh new form. The underlying structure is the same as the HGUC F91, so it still delivers excellent articulation and joint strength, making it an easy and fun kit to pose. One minor gripe — the front skirt color separation is handled with seals, which feels a bit out of place.

All in all, this is a textbook variation kit that makes great use of the existing high-quality frame and pulls off the remodel with a fresh new style. If the look appeals to you, this is definitely a kit worth recommending.
