Together with SD Musha Gundam

This kit is the SD Musha Plus, the first release in the SD Gundam Sengoku-den Furinkazan series. True to its name, it's based on the Zeta Plus concept, and the standout feature is that you can reconfigure various parts to recreate the Waverider form.

The Waverider parts can be assembled separately into a flying vehicle called the Furaioh, and the Smart Cannon includes a spring gimmick that lets you launch two different types of missiles. There are plenty of other option gimmicks too — the head antennae fold via a linked mechanism on both sides, and the Snake Top and Light Orb from the Furaioh can be mounted onto the head antennae. The wings on the back can also be repositioned and displayed in a spread-out configuration.

Beyond that, the articulation and joint gimmicks don't stray too far from early SD standards — pretty much par for the course. For an older-release kit, though, it offers solid quality along with a good variety of options and the Waverider gimmick, which is definitely its main selling point. :-)
