This kit is Emma Koishikawa [Nocturne] with Honda AB12 Motocompo, released as a collaboration series with Soukai Shoujo Teien. It follows the same approach as the previously released Buster with Honda AB12 Motocompocollaboration with Megami Device. Emma Koishikawa [Nocturne] from Soukai Shoujo Teien (winter uniform version)gets a color variant treatment — the molded colors are swapped out and it's bundled together with a pink Honda AB12 Motocompo.

So all the features are identical to the original kits. For detailed info on each kit, check out the original reviews — for this review, just paying close attention to the new molded color combinations should be enough. That said, with Emma Koishikawa [Nocturne], only one printed face part is included. Unlike the typical girlplas that usually come with three or more face expressions, it seems the Honda AB12 Motocompo bundle kits have all gone with just a single face. On top of that, a helmet has been added just like with the Buster version, but it still doesn't sit securely on the head — unless you use glue or double-sided tape, it just kind of perches there precariously.

Emma Koishikawa's quality remains excellent, but it's worth keeping in mind that the Honda AB12 Motocompo is a kit from 1981. Being a 45-year-old kit, it's quite challenging to build and every single part needs to be glued — it's about as old-school as old-school gets.

It's still an interesting combination overall, but the Motocompo's relatively dated quality is the real sticking point. So this feels like a kit best suited for folks who already have some experience building older-style kits. :-)
