The paint ball launcher has a handle, so it's compatible with most Girl Pla kits.

This kit is the Marutoys Tamotu Type-S [White Ver.] released by Kotobukiya. It's based on the previously released Tamotu [White Ver.]with a number of new parts added to the lineup — including additional head, front torso, and leg armor, plus two drones and a paint ball launcher on top.

The base frame is identical to the original Tamotu, so the structural characteristics are the same — solid quality with great frame detail, articulation, and joint strength. The drone with the paint ball launcher can be detached and displayed separately using a borrowed stand, and since it has a handle on the bottom, it can also be used as a weapon for Girl Pla kits in collab poses. The articulation itself is the same as Tamotu, but the beefed-up armor does give the poses a slightly different feel.

Personally, among Kotobukiya kits, Marutoys feels like the lineup that comes closest to the Bandai kit vibe. It's a series that delivers consistently solid quality, so if the style appeals to you, it's definitely a kit you can pick up without hesitation.
