This kit is the SD Versal Knight Gundam released as part of the SD Gundam Gaiden: Siegzeon Arc series. The previously released No. 69 DX Versal Knight Gundam was a larger, more detailed version of the same design. This kit is released in the original SD Gundam scale, and it's essentially the existing SD Knight Gundam with the Versal armor and weapons added on.

Because of that, you can recreate a total of 3 different armed configurations — the standard Knight Gundam, the Three Sacred Treasures equipped state, and the full Versal Knight Gundam. The Versal Knight Gundam's lance even has a neat little linked gimmick where pressing the back causes the front to spread open. On top of that, the classic spear-launching feature and the cut-out-the-manual-for-a-cape feature are both still here, and the Versal Knight armor pieces are done in a pearl molded color, which gives them a surprisingly premium feel.

All in all, as a full-option Knight Gundam kit in the original SD scale, this one seems well worth it for anyone who's a fan of the Knight Gundam series. :-)
