This kit is the RG Justice Gundam Deactive Mode, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's a kit that takes the molded color of the standard retail RG Justice Gundamand changes it to a deactive color scheme — no new molding whatsoever, just a straight color variant.
Unlike the previous RG Deactive Mode releases which had a gray tone overall, this one comes in a monochrome blue tone. Thanks to that, it actually feels like the color hasn't faded quite as much as you'd expect for a deactive color scheme. Since it's a Deactive Mode release, the basic build and features are identical to the original kit, so for this review you really just need to pay attention to the changed molded colors. That said, it still has the same old issues — standing upright is tricky because of the backpack, and the beam sabers stored in the side skirts tend to fall out easily.
So this kit stands out a bit from the other RG Deactive Mode releases with its slightly different color feel, and it's definitely a clear departure from the deep pink of the original unit. The longstanding durability issues are a bit of a letdown, but if you're a fan of Justice Gundam, it's probably worth building at least once. :-)
