This kit is the Garmillas ship released as No. 3 in the Mecha Collection Yamato 2199 series. The actual vessel included is the Destria-class Astro Heavy Cruiser, which was also included in the 1/1000 Garmillas Imperial Fleet Warship Set 1 released in 2013. As you'd expect, it's a compact little thing at around 10cm, but the detail work is pretty well done for the size.
Outside of the small rotating barrel gimmick, there aren't any other moving parts, so the main thing to appreciate in this review is the close-up detail shots. The front nozzle area uses seals, though getting them on cleanly isn't exactly easy. The overall silhouette is fairly simple by design, but the molded lines are bold and crisp, so it actually has a decent sense of depth to it.
All in all, it's a solid enough Mecha Collection warship kit, and it's just nice to know that Garmillas fleet ships are getting releases too. :-)
