The old stand has been upgraded to an Action Base 7 as well.

This kit is the Gundam Base exclusive HG G-Self Perfect Pack Equipped Type (Reconguista in G the Movie Ver.). Based on the standard release HG Gundam G-Self Perfect Pack,it features a number of newly sculpted parts added to the mix. To summarize the changes:

1. Head and shoulder armor resculpted — areas previously handled with seals have all been redone with color separation
2. Upper body resculpted — overall proportions have been revised, and an extra layer of clear parts has been added to the chest ducts
3. Shoulder joint structure redesigned — improved range of motion
4. Forearm and rear calf armor resculpted — improved elbow/knee range of motion
5. Fixed hip joint upgraded to a height-adjustable sliding hip joint
6. Molded detail added to the shield interior
7. Old base replaced with Action Base 7

As you can see, the changes are mainly about converting seal-covered areas to proper color separation and providing redesigned armor parts to improve range of motion. The visual difference isn't huge, but the color separation and articulation have been quietly improved quite a bit. Other than the added detail on the shield interior, the weapons and Perfect Pack sculpts remain the same as before. The stand has also been upgraded to the latest Action Base 7, making it much easier to display at a variety of angles.

For a Gundam Base exclusive, it's rare to see this many new sculpts applied, and it's come out as a genuinely well-done improvement kit. The joint strength was already solid to begin with, and now that the articulation and color separation have been upgraded, the overall value feels even better. Either way, if you're a fan of the G-Self series or just like the look of it, this seems like a model example of a variation kit that's well worth picking up.
