This kit is the HG Advanced GN-X, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. Based on the standard retail HG GN-X, with changes to the head, shoulders, and thigh sculpts. On top of that, the Proto GN Lance and a middle-type barrel for the Advanced GN Beam Rifle have been added as new weapons.

The basic frame is the same as the HG GN-X, and it comes out as a solid HG kit with decent articulation and joint strength as you'd expect. With the MG Advanced GN-X, the thigh armor actually reduced knee articulation compared to the MG GN-X — but since the HG GN-X's knee articulation wasn't great to begin with, it doesn't feel like much of a step down here.

All in all, this kit is noteworthy simply for giving the Advanced GN-X a proper HG release. Compared to the bulkier MG Advanced GN-X, it feels more compact yet still solid. If you like the design, it's a pretty good GN-X kit that's well worth recommending. :-)
