This kit is the 1/100 Gundam X Divider from the old Gundam X series, and it's essentially the existing 1/100 Gundam X with additional Divider parts thrown in. So the articulation and joint strength of the main body are the same as before — still decent articulation and somewhat iffy joint strength.

The real highlight of this kit is, of course, the Divider. Unlike the 1/144 version where it was a detachable swap-out transformation, this one befits its 1/100 scale with a proper articulated opening mechanism. The heavy use of plated parts also makes it look a lot flashier, and new weapons like the beam machine gun and X Grenadier have been added to the mix. That said, the Divider is pretty big and hefty, so securing it in the left hand can feel a little shaky at times.

Overall, this kit feels like a slight step up in quality compared to the original Gundam X, and since the Divider version was never released as an MG, it's arguably a more worthwhile old-kit pick than the standard 1/100 Gundam X.
