This is the SD S Gundam released as BB Senshi No. 22. Like its predecessors, it comes with a spring-loaded BB pellet firing gimmick, and includes two eye seal options — one with pupils and one without. Unfortunately, it doesn't include any transformation functionality.

Instead, parts are included to swap it out into Ex-S Gundam and the Booster Unit configurations, and with four-way color separation plus seals applied, the straight build looks pretty solid visually. So the kit's selling points are its decent color scheme and the ability to switch between three different configurations — and for reference, in 1999 it was repackaged and released as the G Generation S Gundamwith a Core Booster added to the mix, so keep that in mind. :-)
