Two 90mm submachine guns and two beam daggers are included,
and the beam parts come in two different forms.

Two hand types are included,
and the molded-grip hands plug directly into the 90mm submachine guns.

You can use a beam dagger underneath while holding the 90mm submachine gun at the same time.

The beam dagger handles store in the side skirts.

The 90mm submachine guns can be mounted nicely on either side of the rear skirt.

Like other kits, there's a stand peg hole at the hip joint —
and if you remove the center cover on the rear skirt, there's an additional mounting hole in the back for a stand.

Together with the HGUC Ground Type Gundam Ver.2.

This is the HGUC Gundam Pixy, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's the mobile suit from the game "Mobile Suit Gundam: Cross Dimension 0079," a Gundam unit specialized for close-quarters combat. Some of the frame reuses runners from the HGUC Ground Type Gundam Ver.2, but over 90% of the parts are newly tooled.

The overall design feels familiar yet fresh at the same time. Solid joints and excellent articulation give it a reassuringly quality feel. For weapons, you get two 90mm submachine guns and two beam daggers. Since the submachine guns use integrated-grip hands, there are zero grip issues. You can also attach a beam dagger to the underside of each 90mm submachine gun, and two different beam effect parts are included for the daggers. On top of that, in addition to the hip joint hole, there's also a stand mounting hole on the rear skirt.

With all the different weapon combinations and beam parts to play around with, you can pull off a wide variety of poses — and since the poses hold well, this kit is just a lot of fun to handle. Even if you've never played the game, this is a solid HGUC kit that pretty much anyone can enjoy. :-)
