This kit is the Earth Federation flagship battleship Dreadnought Class Set 2, released as No. 11 in the Mecha Collection Yamato 2202 series. Compared to the Mecha Collection flagship battleship Dreadnought Class Set 1released alongside it, the kit has the same contents with only the molded color changed — the original navy blue molded color has simply been swapped out for red.

Content-wise, it combines the gray Earth Fleet flagship battleship (Yamanami Fleet) version and the red Mars Defense Line version. Of these, the flagship battleship (Yamanami Fleet) version shares the same gray molded color as the flagship battleship (D-Class) from Dreadnought Class Set 1. So in the end, only the navy blue Mars-Earth Defense Line version has been swapped out for the red Mars Defense Line version. Since all four Dreadnought class battleships share the same sculpt, for this review you really just need to take a good look at the changed red molded color.

It's a straightforward run of color variants, but there's still something to appreciate in the fact that multiple versions (colors) of the Dreadnought class battleship have been given the Mecha Collection treatment. Since all the corresponding colors have also been released at 1/1000 scale, it could be fun to match them up by scale for display. Either way, if you're a fan of the Dreadnought class battleship, this is a great chance to collect them in every color. :-)
