Together with the original Takemikaduchi v1.5.
It's a color variant kit with only the molded color changed.

As a color variation of the Muv-Luv Takemikaduchi v1.5, the non-scale Takemikaduchi v1.5 - Tsukuyomi Mana ki has been released. It's a straightforward color variant with just the molded color changed to red, so for the detailed structural features, please refer to the Muv-Luv Takemikaduchi Ver1.5 reviewand in this review you'll just want to check out the change in color.

Coming to v1.5, the joint strength issues that were a letdown in v1.0 have been clearly improved, and a weapon attachment that converts the assault cannon into a support assault cannon has been added — all of which is reproduced here without a single part difference.

Since it's been a while since we've had a simple color variant kit, there's really nothing fresh about it — but on the plus side, the red molded surfaces have a slight gloss injection finish, so once built, it does give off a faint glossy painted look. That said, compared to Bandai's proper gloss injection, the surface sheen falls a bit short, so it's probably best to think of it as just a kit with slightly better-looking molded colors than a standard release.

Anyway, since there's nothing new about this variation, it seems like a pretty average kit best recommended for fans of Mana from the series or those who just love red units. :-)
