The three Sutetsu armor pieces can be loaded onto the tip of the Tetsuzando and launched via a spring gimmick.
That said, the way the gimmick is set up, it doesn't really feel like they shoot out with much force.

Turning the rotating screw on the Tetsuzando lets you open or close the tip, just like a wrench.

Lay the body face-down and position the arms as shown to combine the parts.

Sutetsu Attack Form

It has the standard SD-level articulation, with an added joint that lets the shoulders fold back.

This kit is the SD Tekki Musha Master Zeta, released as part of the Shin SD Sengokuden Ipadaishogun series. Its defining feature is the three types of Sutetsu (beast + iron) armor — Suiyoku, Suia, and Suikaku — mounted on the head and both shoulders. You can also remove the Sutetsu armor to put it in light armor mode.

The weapons included are the Kyousenin and the Tetsuzando. The Tetsuzando, which looks like a wrench, lets you turn a rotating screw to open or close the tip. It also has a spring gimmick built in — load one of the Sutetsu armor pieces onto the tip, press the button, and the recoil launches it. That said, it doesn't shoot out with the satisfying force you'd expect from a missile or anything like that. You can also do a slight transformation of the body and rearrange the weapons to set it up in Sutetsu Attack Form, and thanks to this transformation gimmick, there's an added joint that lets the shoulders fold backward.

The cute little Sutetsu armor pieces and the transformation into flight mode are the highlights of this kit — overall it feels like a solid, no-frills SD Musha Gundam. :-)
