As shown in the table above, by combining with Expansion Parts Sets 3 and 4 — and in some cases Set 2 as well — you can build a total of 4 different units. Of these, the Burglarydog is completely identical to the existing standard release, so the newly buildable units are really just three: the Britishdog, the Scopedog Dogman Custom, and the Odon Battle Chirico unit.

The only newly sculpted parts added are the feet for the Britishdog and the front skirt for the Dogman custom unit — everything else is reused from existing kits. A runner with the existing light green armor recolored in dark green has been added to build the Odon Battle Chirico unit, and the light green armor parts from the HG Burglarydog are also included for customization purposes.

To recap the HG Burglarydog armor parts situation — they've been reused across all of Expansion Parts Sets 3 through 5. Set 3 includes both the light green and dark green armor, Set 4 has only the dark green, and Set 5 has only the light green. So in the end, they've been duplicated twice across Sets 3, 4, and 5 — it would've been nice if they'd either dropped those parts to bring the price down, or just bundled the expansion sets together. Especially the Burglarydog parts that were already sold as a separate product... hard not to wonder why they needed to be stuffed into the expansion sets too.

So Expansion Parts Sets 3, 4, and 5 — released all at the same time — ended up being a pretty messy combination. More than half of the content is just reused parts, so it really would've been a much better value if they'd just combined all the new sculpts into a single expansion set. Either way, buying just one of them gets you nowhere, so you're basically forced to buy all three at once — a pretty sneaky setup. That said, the combined price of all three kits comes out to ¥2000+¥1600+¥1600 = ¥4200, which isn't outrageously expensive, so if you're a Votoms fan it's probably worth just biting the bullet and going for it. :-)
