The hip joint section lets you choose between the action type (left) and the stand type (right) during assembly.
The action type on the left gives you a slightly better range of motion.

Together with the existing Combat-san.
Literally just a variation where she's changed her outfit.

This kit is a variation of the existing Combat-san, featuring a version dressed in combat gear called the Tactical Suit. The face and limb construction aren't all that different, but the torso outfit and weapons have been changed.

The Tactical Suit on the torso features a pre-painted camouflage pattern, so even a straight build captures the look really well. All 8 hand parts are also partially painted, giving the straight build a surprisingly polished look. Compared to the existing Combat-san, new weapons include the Grind Frame, combat knife, and pouches.

It's technically just a variation with a different outfit, but the kit actually feels quite different — you could easily call it a brand-new kit. The sailor uniform-style Combat-san is cute, but this sleek and combat-ready Tactical Suit version is plenty pretty and adorable too. ^^ Also, since hip joint parts with slightly better articulation than the normal version are included, even demanding poses like kneeling down are pulled off without any trouble.

The HoiHoi-san series has such a strong personality that each variation feels uniquely its own. True to a series that lives and dies by being cute, this is a kit you can enjoy plenty with just a straight build! :-)
