The Delta that fires a projectile via a spring

The Raishin-to can be stored in the center of the Raiden-yoku.

The Raiden-yoku has a linked gimmick where moving one side causes the opposite side to follow.

Typical SD articulation — only head, shoulders, and feet rotate

Together with SD Houou Gundam

This kit is the SD Ikazuchi Gundam, released as part of the SD Sengokuden Tenka Touitsu-hen series. As the younger sibling of the previous release, Houou Gundam, the overall silhouette and functionality are completely identical — the only change is the color scheme swapping from red to blue. The spring-loaded Delta that fires a projectile, the linked gimmick on the Raiden-yoku, and the Raishin-to storage are all in the same format as Houou Gundam.

Anyway, just like Houou Gundam, this is a kit that boasts an impressive size and clean build quality — if you're going to build one, it really feels like the kind of kit you should grab as a pair with Houou Gundam. :-)
