This kit is the HG Amida's Hyakuren, released as a variation of the Hyakuren. It's the mobile suit piloted by Amida, who appears as Naze's (first) wife in his polygamous harem setup. Structurally it's 100% identical to the standard Hyakuren — it's essentially a straight color variant kit with the molded color changed to a pinkish scheme. That said, one newly added weapon is included: a simple assault rifle made up of just 3 parts.

Since there are no structural changes, for the kit's basic characteristics please refer to the HG Hyakuren review— this review is really just here to check out the new color scheme and the shape of the newly added assault rifle.

It doesn't have a full inner frame, but articulation is pretty good for its size, and the overall quality is still a clean, solid kit. That said, just like the original Hyakuren, the Japanese samurai-inspired design will probably be hit or miss depending on your taste — though the girly pink color scheme does make it a bit easier to warm up to.

Beyond that, since Amida is a character with a meaningful role in the original series, this kit should be a great fit for fans who have a soft spot for her. The kit quality itself is quite good, so if the style appeals to you, it's definitely worth recommending. :-)
