Alongside the original kit, the MG Gundam Fenice Rinascita.
At first glance it looks like a simple color variant, but look closer and you'll notice quite a few sculpt changes — the head, chest, shoulders, knees, ankle armor, feet, wings, and more,
with quite a number of areas having their sculpt revised.

This is the MG Gundam Fenice Rinascita Alba, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's a kit that takes the MG Gundam Fenice Rinascitaand changes the molded colors to an original Wing-style scheme. Two new runners have been added, bringing along a good number of design changes as well.

The parts with new sculpts include the head, chest, shoulders, knees, ankle armor, feet, and wings — more design changes than you might expect. The individual details are different, but the overall silhouette is similar enough that it can look like just a color variant at a glance. The weapons and accessories being completely identical doesn't help either, but if you look carefully at all the little details, it's definitely distinct from the original.

The basic frame and structural characteristics are the same as the original kit, so it still delivers solid articulation and joint strength. The transformation into flight mode is fully reproduced as well, and the included action base lets you display it in aerial poses and flight mode.

So while the structural traits carry over unchanged, the molded colors and exterior design are quite different. That said, the changes to the parts don't make it feel dramatically different from the original in some respects. Either way, if you're into the flashy Wing Gundam color scheme, this seems like a kit worth going for without worrying too much about quality. :-)
