Together with the standard MG Shenlong Gundam.

This kit is the MG Shenlong Gundam EW (Liao Ya Unit), released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's the standard MG Shenlong Gundam with the new Liao Ya Equipment and an auxiliary stand added in. The main body is completely identical to the standard version, from molded colors right down to the parts lineup.

So everything about the main body is exactly the same as the regular MG Shenlong Gundam. For details on the main body, check out the MG Shenlong Gundam review — for this review, it's probably enough to just focus on the new Liao Ya Equipment. The Liao Ya Equipment features a large blade connected to the shield via a cable, and the actual newly added parts are pretty much just the blade, the cable wire, and the rear shield parts. On top of that, a small auxiliary stand is also included to help support the Liao Ya Equipment.

The Liao Ya Equipment pairs really well with the standard MG Shenlong Gundam, and the finger pin locks firmly into the grip, so poses hold up great. Sure, it's a simple weapon add-on variation with no change in molded colors, but the real appeal here is being able to recreate this scene from the Endless Waltz glory series — and that counts for something. :-)
