This kit is the SD Rekkuu Gundam, released as part of the Shin SD Sengokuden: Legend of the Great General arc. It follows the same concept as its predecessors, Rekkou and Rekuha Gundam — it's Ryuusei Gundam wearing the Rekkuu armor. The standout feature is the Sasazo (G-Bird), which combines a spring-loaded projectile launcher with a scabbard.

Like the previous kits, you can attach parts while still on the runner or mount the armor on a separate display stand to recreate the Kensei's armor — but what's interesting here is that the arms have a notably wider range of motion. Unlike most SD Gundams where the arms can only rotate, these can spread out to the sides and swing horizontally. It makes action poses look a lot more natural, and honestly it's a shame this kind of joint isn't used on other kits too.

All in all, it's a solid SD Gundam of decent quality, and it's an even better kit when you pair it up with Rekkou and Rekuha to make a trio. :-)
