This kit is the Type Angel Arnval Tranche2, released as a collaboration between Busou Shinki and Megami Device. It's based on the existing Angel Arnvalwith some new sculpt parts added — new parts on the front hair, knees, and feet, plus a newly added rail gun.

Since it's only a modest addition of new sculpt parts, most of the structural characteristics are the same as the original kit. It still delivers excellent articulation and joint strength for solid pose retention, and comes across as a sturdy, well-built kit. All the existing accessories are included too, so the overall package is quite substantial. A ponytail hair option has also been added — one that wasn't in the original Angel Arnval — and it's actually recycled from the Angel Arnval repaint color versionwhere it was first introduced.

With a handful of parts added, the price has gone up ¥500 to ¥9,500. There aren't any major changes, so for this review you really just need to check out what's new. That said, the build quality is A-grade all the way, so if you're a fan of the Busou Shinki series or just dig the style, this seems like a Gunpla line well worth recommending. :-)
