Comparison with the original GQuuuuuuX head (left).
The head is all-new sculpt except for the antennae, and it looks pretty much the same aside from the eyes.

Together with the HG GQuuuuuuX.

The 13th HG kit from "Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX" has been released — the GQuuuuuuX (Endymion Unit Awakened). HG GQuuuuuuXwith some newly added parts. The basic accessories and molded colors are completely identical to the original, with only the Endymion Unit Awakened version parts added on top.

The newly added parts are the head and four effect parts. The head has been resculpted with a mouth-opening structure, and the stickers have been changed to show the eyes slightly rolled. You can choose from 2 different sticker options for both the eyes and mouth. The effect parts, rendered in PET sheet material, attach to the sides of both shoulders and calves, and some shoulder parts have also been changed to accommodate them.

On top of that, a single new joint part has been added for mounting the beam rifle on the back. Everything else — the weapon loadout and Core Fighter recreation — remains the same as the original. The base kit itself was already an RG-feeling HG kit with excellent articulation, joint strength, and color separation. That said, the fiddly assembly and seal work due to the tiny parts carries over as well.

So overall, this is a solid variation kit that does a decent job of recreating the GQuuuuuuX (Endymion Unit Awakened) look. The quality is good enough, but the differences from the original are a bit subtle, so if you've already built the HG GQuuuuuuX, there may not be a huge reason to pick this one up. That said, if you're a GQuuuuuuX fan, it's definitely worth going for :-)
