Together with the HG Brady Hound it's based on.

This kit is the HG Aaronrhino Grady Exclusive released as part of the Kyoukai Senki series. Based on the previously released HG Brady Hound, it features a number of newly sculpted parts. One weapons runner is HG Weapon Set 7 recycled from.

The basic frame is identical to the HG Brady Hound, but the chest, forearms, backpack, and shoulder armaments have been redesigned. The articulation characteristics are the same, giving it a solid and straightforward range of motion. That said, while the joint structure is the same, the joint strength feels ever so slightly looser. Compared side by side with the original kit it does feel relatively loose, but it's not so bad that it's floppy, so it's nothing to worry too much about.

For weapons, the short barrel rifle and blade from the separately sold Weapon Set 7 are reused, and various joint gimmicks are included as a bonus. Like its predecessors, it supports a parked configuration and can also be combined with the HG Stock Carrier. You can also choose between combat mode and scouting mode eyes, and joint parts for mounting the short barrel rifle on the rear skirt are included as well. Another special feature is a gimmick where the four backpack vernier flaps can each be moved individually.

All in all, as a variation kit with a fresh new design, if the style appeals to you, it seems like a kit you can enjoy without any real complaints. :-)
