RG Strike Gundam - Together with the RG Aile Strike Gundam released as the standard edition.

Together with the RG Aile Strike Gundam released as the standard edition.

This kit is the RG Strike Gundam released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. Compared to the standard RG Aile Strike Gundamit's essentially just the main body without the Aile pack — no new mold parts whatsoever.

So everything about the main body, including the seals, is identical to the original. It still shows excellent articulation with that somewhat iffy joint strength, though without the Aile pack it does stand upright a bit more easily. Fundamentally, this kit is meant to serve as a base body for attaching the separately sold Sword pack/Launcher pack. For a look at how it combines with the Sword/Launcher, please refer to the standard edition RG Sky Grasper review.

So while there's absolutely nothing new about this kit, it does serve its own purpose as a base body for attaching the Sword pack and Launcher pack included with the RG Sky Grasper. It could have just as well been released as a standalone product like an RG Sword Strike Gundam or RG Launcher Strike Gundam. Either way, for those who want to build the RG Sword/Launcher Strike separately, this should be a pretty handy kit. :-)
