This kit is the MG Destiny Impulse Gundam R, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's a unit from SEED MSV that combines the Impulse Gundam's main body with the Destiny Gundam's wings. The molded colors have been changed to a purple tone, and the wing center section along with some of the weapons feature newly tooled parts.

The main body is completely identical to the inner frame of the previously released standard edition MG Force Impulse Gundam, and it still delivers excellent overall articulation and solid joint strength. The Core Splendor is included as well, but it can't be attached to the main body due to the Destiny R Silhouette.

The center of the Destiny R Silhouette mounted on the back features a newly tooled nose section resembling the head of a BuCUE. You can lower the nose and push the wings back to display it as an independent aircraft. The Wolfsbane long-range beam cannons have also been newly added as weapons for the Destiny R Silhouette, and they can be detached and held in the hands as well. On top of that, parts are included to recreate the head of the DI Adaga version that appears in the lore.

All in all, the real value here is how faithfully the Destiny Impulse Gundam R from SEED MSV has been brought to life. It's a well-built kit with great overall quality, so if the design appeals to you, don't hesitate — just go for it. :-)
