This kit is the Earth Federation Main Battleship Dreadnought Class Set 1, released as No. 10 in the Mecha Collection Yamato 2202 series. It's a set combining two Dreadnought Class battleships — both sharing the same sculpt but molded in different colors. Included are the gray Main Battleship (D-Class) version and the navy blue Mars-Earth Defense Line version.

Since the in-universe size was already on the smaller side, Mecha Collection Andromedait's been sculpted even smaller and more compact. But don't let the size fool you — it's a miniature kit with crisp, detailed molding throughout. Two key areas on the front are also color-separated, which gives it a color combination that's a bit more interesting than you might expect. The only articulation gimmick is the rotating main guns, so for this review, just sit back and take in all the fine details and molded colors.

It's pretty cool that even a distinctive little ship like the Dreadnought Class has gotten the Mecha Collection treatment. It's a set of two color variant kits bundled together, but if you're someone who wants Dreadnoughts in multiple colors, this is the kind of kit where you'll be saying "actually, this is great!" :-)
