This kit is Hakuryu Gundam, released as part of the Shin SD Sengokuden Seven Warlords series. It's a series based on the concept of past heroes being reincarnated, but according to the manual, Hakuryu Gundam is presented more as a sibling to Hiten/Daia Gundam rather than a reincarnation. The defining feature of Hakuryu Gundam is that you can recombine its weapons to form a Core Lander and Core Lander attack mode, and equipping the additional weapons lets you build it in super-armed form.

A clear marble is included as a special part for the chest, and the spring-loaded firing gimmick is built into the Core Lander section — it can launch not just a bullet but also a drill. Hakuryu Gundam also supports cross-kit combos: you can attach the backpack and head from its siblings SD Hiten Gundam Shogun and SD Daia Gundam. On top of that, the drill can be used with SD Mobile Warrior Daikou, and a backpack combo with SD Musha Victory is possible too.

In terms of looks and playability, this is a pretty unique SD kit in its own right — if the style appeals to you, it's definitely one you can enjoy without any hesitation. :-)
