This kit is the Laetitia Ryuu-Bi, released as part of Kotobukiya's Frame Arms Girl lineup. It takes the original Laetitia's molded colors and shifts them to a red color scheme, with several new weapons added to the mix. Laetitia's signature 7 ear variations and 5 head variations are all carried over as well.
The base body shares the same structure as the original Laetitia, so you get the same solid articulation, joint strength, and wide range of options. The added weapons are made up of numerous pieces that can be combined in different ways to form Full Equipment Form A or B and mounted on the figure. You can also break them down into individual weapons — the Jangryongdo (Dragon Grave), Cheonryongwol (Dragon Axe), and Ssangryonga (Twin Fang) — and when combined with the weapons from the simultaneously released Hresvelgr=Lupus Agito, you can even build the Guardian Dragon Form (Drago Mode).
Unlike the original Laetitia, which felt a bit bare with just the base body, the addition of these versatile weapons opens up all kinds of combinations and dynamic poses — that's definitely the big selling point here. The weapons also hold their position really well, so they stay put no matter what pose you go for. If the style appeals to you, this seems like a pretty solid girlpla that's well worth building with no major complaints. :-)
