Together with BB Senshi Gundam F90

This is the SD V-dash Gundam, released as BB Senshi No. 124. Starting from No. 74 Gundam F91, BB Senshi kits have been coming out a bit larger at 500 yen. With the price bump comes a more generous package — five molded colors, plus a separate Core Fighter and Hexa-type head are all included.

The Core Fighter can be completed by swapping in either of the two head types, and it even has rotating wheels on the bottom so you can roll it around and play with it. On top of that, the classic spring-loaded bullet-firing gimmick is also included, and you can transform it into the Top Fighter and Bottom Fighter, or use the Core Fighter to build the Core Booster and V Buster configurations.

It's an old-school SD kit whose appeal lies in all these generous options and transformation gimmicks — and in 1999 it was repackaged with a fan-shaped beam saber and two beam guns added to the mix, released as the G Generation V Gundam (Full Equipment Type)so keep that in mind! :-)
