Together with the HG MAILeS Byakuchi.

This kit is the Kyoukai Senki HG MAILeS Byakuchi (F.G.E. Color), released as a Premium Bandai online exclusive. Compared to the standard release HG MAILeS Byakuchi, the molded color has been changed and additional weapons have been included, while the main body contents are completely identical to the original.

So all the features are the same as well — the incredible articulation and solid joint strength are all still there. As for new weapons, a 180mm portable grenade launcher, machete knife, and multi-launcher have been added, along with 2 new back-of-hand parts. The original kit was short 2 back-of-hand parts and you had to swap them around, so that was probably a pretty common complaint from customers.

Since the base kit itself was already great quality, you can still pull off those dynamic poses that Kyoukai Senki kits are known for. If you're into that military-style color scheme, this seems like a kit worth building without any worries about quality. :-)
