It can be deployed by splitting into 6 blocks.

Or you can separate it into multiple blocks like this and use them as additional armor.

Plug the Sniper Cannon into the top of the main body, then attach the 6 insect legs to the underside.
At this point, the instructions say to insert the legs into holes 1, 2, and 5 out of the 5 holes on the bottom of the body.

Swing the Sniper Cannon back and press it flush against the body — combination complete.

It's quite a chunky unit.

This kit is the Booster Pack 010 Booster from the Hexa Gear series. It was released alongside Booster Packs 7, 8, and 9 — Cockpit/Insect Leg/Sniper Cannon— and the concept is to combine all four Booster Packs to build Blockade Ivy. This particular kit handles the rear body block of that combined form.

The Booster block has a gimmick where it splits into 6 pieces and deploys outward, and in its fully expanded form it can be used in collaboration with other Hexa Gear kits. Size-wise it pairs really nicely with the V-Thor, and you can also detach the individual pieces and mount them as armor panels.

Once you collect all four Booster Packs and bring them together, you can finally combine them into Blockade Ivy. The combination process is fairly straightforward, and the durability after combining is solid. On top of the various gimmicks, the legs have a good range of motion too, so you can pull off some pretty dynamic poses. You will need (¥3600+¥4000+¥2600+¥2600=) ¥12,800 to collect all four kits, but there's no denying it has a big, stylish appeal that makes it worth it.

All in all, it's a solid accessory kit that you can use to collaborate with various other kits or build into Blockade Ivy. Worth noting that a Kotobukiya Shop exclusive set bundling all four Booster Packs together was also released. Either way, if you're a Hexa Gear fan, I'd definitely recommend picking up all four Booster Packs and building them together. :-)
