This is the MG Gundam Stormbringer F.A. (Fatal Ash) / GM Turbulence, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's based on the MG Gundam Stormbringer previously released through Club G. The FA version comes with a changed molded color in an olive drab military tone, additional weapons on the backpack, and the ability to build the GM Turbulence through parts swapping.

Starting with the Gundam Stormbringer F.A. — the only changes are the backpack and the newly added 360mm Rocket Cannon Improved Type. That said, the shift to a military-style molded color gives the kit quite a different feel overall. The GM Turbulence is achieved by swapping the head, shoulders, and backpack, and it really does feel like a GM wearing the Stormbringer's body. The head and shoulders swap out 1-for-1, but the backpack requires full disassembly and reassembly, which makes switching between configurations a bit of a hassle.

Since this kit only changes the molded color and a few external parts, the structural characteristics are naturally identical to the MG Gundam Stormbringer. You still get excellent articulation and joint strength, a solid inner frame — and that somewhat iffy shoulder joint. Overall, it's still a high-quality MG through and through.

Anyway, even with just a handful of added parts, the kit feels noticeably different, and the ability to build two configurations through parts swapping is a definite plus. The switch to a military color scheme really drives home that "weapon" vibe too. Much like the Stormbringer, this is a variation kit with its own sleek style — and if the look appeals to you, it's an MG that's well worth enjoying. :-)
