Together with SD Musha Gundam

This kit is the Shingen Gundam released as part of the SD Sengokuden "Heaven and Earth" series. It's basically BB Senshi No. 17 Musha Gundam with just a handful of extra parts thrown in — the additions are limited to a fan-shaped gunbai weapon and a new helmet decoration. There's also a paper cut-out flag included as an accessory.

So all the core features are identical to the original Musha Gundam — the special gimmick where pressing the face launches the helmet via a spring, the other weapons, articulation, all of it is the same. For this review, you really just need to take a good look at the added parts and seals.

It's a variation kit without any major changes, but if you're a fan of the Heaven and Earth arc, just having it released at all is probably enough to be grateful for. :-)
