Together with SD Musha Alex

This kit is SD Neo Alex, the main character of SD Sengokuden Tenka Touitsu-hen. It's essentially the SD Musha Alex kit with changed molded colors and the addition of Neo Alex's armor. Because of that, you can also fully build SD Musha Alex including the Sanshinki-equipped form — though the newly added Neo Alex Earth Armor does have some fitment issues with the main body. The front armor in particular doesn't feel like it locks onto the body very securely, which is probably a side effect of reusing the existing kit molds.

So with this kit, the main thing to check out is the newly added Earth Armor. The Chimyaik wings on the back have a linkage gimmick where moving one side moves the other simultaneously. The Jisin Sword weapon stores in the center of the Chimyaik wings — and this whole backpack format would carry over directly to the later Phoenix Gundam and Lightning Gundam kits.

There are some minor frustrations with how the new parts fit together, but as the main character of the series, it's definitely worth building if you're a fan of Tenka Touitsu-hen. :-)
