The verniers in particular are linked top and bottom, so they move simultaneously.

This kit is the RG Nu Gundam Double Fin Funnel version, released as a Fukuoka Side-F exclusive. It's based on the previously released standard RG Nu Gundamwith fin funnels mounted on both sides, and with 4 runners' worth of new parts added, many design elements have been changed as listed below. (See the comparison photos just above)

1. The duct holes on either side of the head have been simplified
2. The center chest armor is significantly larger, and the chest duct shape has been changed
3. The front skirt and crotch area design has been changed
4. The shoulder armor on both sides is larger with a different design
5. The beam rifle and shield designs have been completely changed
6. New fin funnel mounting points have been added to both sides of the backpack

I initially thought this was simply a variation with the fin funnels split to both sides, but there are far more original elements added than I expected. Since the base kit was already excellent quality, this one also comes out with top-tier RG quality. It still shows off great articulation, an impressive inner frame, and solid joint strength, and with the weight now better distributed across both sets of fin funnels, posing has become easier too. The completely redesigned beam rifle and shield in particular feel really fresh.

All in all, this kit stands out from your typical Gundam Base exclusive with a real sense of originality. It's a fantastic and refreshing color variant kit that I'd easily recommend even to those who've already built the RG Nu Gundam and enjoyed it.
