The basic silhouette is the same, but some parts have been replaced with new sculpts.

First, the tail section has been changed so it can now be detached.

The hinge section of the small wings has also been changed to a detachable form.

To combine with the Zan Unit, first separate each section of the 0 Raiser.

This kit is the RG 00 Zanraiser, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's based on the standard release RG 00 Raiserwith changed molded colors and newly added sculpts — the Zanraiser parts and stand parts are all new additions.

The RG 00 Gundam, 0 Raiser, and all the various weapons and accessories are included just like before. On top of that, the Zan Unit has been added as a new sculpt, and you can combine the Zan Unit with the 0 Raiser to form the Zanraiser. To make that work, new sculpt parts have been applied to the existing 0 Raiser so the tail and the four small wings on either side can be detached. Joint parts for combining the GN Buster Sword IIIs separated from the Zan Unit, along with a dedicated stand, have also been newly added. The kit does become impossible to stand on its own due to the large, heavy load on its back — but thanks to the dedicated stand, stable upright display and posing are no problem.

The new parts including the Zan Unit deliver excellent looks and functionality befitting RG quality. All the various features and combination gimmicks related to the Zan Unit are faithfully and thoroughly implemented — on par with the MG version.

With the Zan Unit added on top of an already parts-heavy RG 00 Raiser, this kit now boasts one of the largest runner counts among RG kits. It takes quite a while to build as a result, but you do get a satisfyingly substantial, full-bodied model in return. Overall, the quality is genuinely good and well worthy of the RG label — it even feels more compact and refined than the MG 00 Zanraiser. If you like the look of it, this is one you can grab without hesitation. :-)
