Compared to the typical SD level of articulation, the arms do have rotating joints.

The limited articulation restricts the range of poses you can pull off.

This kit is the Seiryuki Mars Dragoon released as part of the Shin SD Gundam Gaiden: Knight Gundam Story series. It's a large-sized SD kit compared to your typical SD Gundam, and the concept is that you dress up the light armor Ryujin Dragoon with the sacred armor to form the Seiryuki Mars Dragoon.

In Ryujin Dragoon mode, you can spread the head, wings, and claws to create Ryujin Mode, and the sacred armor can be assembled separately into a stand-alone display configuration. The optional parts include a yellow head antenna — attach it to the Seiryuki Mars Dragoon's head for a powered-up version, or plug it into the Ryujin Dragoon to create the Classic Dragoon. Despite its large size, the articulation isn't great, so there aren't a whole lot of poses you can pull off.

As a crossover feature, you can seat the torso of the SD Chibi Senshi Seiryuki Knight Zero Gundam Junior inside, and it works in both the Ryujin Dragoon and Seiryuki Mars Dragoon configurations.

Anyway, this is the only kit ever released for the Gaiden Knight Gundam Story line. It's a big, chunky build for the price, so if you're a fan of the Knight Gundam style, this one's definitely worth recommending. :-)
