Together with the 1/100 normal version G Gundam.

Together with the 1/144 Hyper Mode G Gundam.

Together with the MG Hyper Mode G Gundam released in 2003 (right).

This is the 1/100 Hyper Mode G Gundam from the old-release G Gundam series, and it comes with the same gold plated parts as the 1/144 version. And yet the price only went up ¥300 compared to the standard 1/100 G Gundam.

The base body is carried straight over from the 1/100 G Gundam, so all the characteristics are identical — the only difference is that the joint strength is a bit tighter thanks to the plated surfaces.

There's also an MG Hyper Mode G Gundam out there, so comparisons are inevitable, and honestly the depth and quality of the coating on this one doesn't quite match the MG. That said, considering it costs less than half the price, it's still a plated kit worth recommending for the value. :-)
