The duct at the bottom of the Minovsky Drive unit is movable.

Just like the V Gundam, the Core Fighter is included separately.

The Core Fighter's detail is decent enough.

The waist tends to pop off on this one too.. Something to watch out for when posing.

The shield mounting is identical to the HGUC V Gundam as well.

Articulation is exactly the same level as the HGUC V Gundam.

Following the HGUC V Gundam, the Victory 2 Gundam has now been released. Since the V2 is a unit that can take on a number of different variation forms, the runners are packed with system injection gates, just as you'd expect ^^ Looks like the V2 Assault and Buster won't be far behind.

The basic parts layout is completely identical to the HGUC V Gundam — it really feels like only the overall design has been changed. The beam weapons, mounting system, articulation, and even joint strength are all exactly the same, so there's not much that's genuinely new to look at. The Core Fighter is also provided separately rather than as a detachable/combinable unit, taking the scale into account, and it shows decent detail and color separation.

There's nothing particularly standout about it, but as an HGUC kit that delivers solid articulation, joint strength, and color separation with a clean overall quality, it's a great pick for anyone who's a fan of the V Gundam series. :-)
