There's also a gimmick where the shoulder armor spreads outward so it doesn't get in the way of the arm's range of motion.

The arms and legs have flexible articulation in all directions.

This kit is the Rekka Musha Gundam released as part of the SD Gundam Force Kaiken Musha Retsuden: Muka Muga arc. It's a kit with a pretty striking color scheme and style — honestly, it looks more like a proper Musha Gundam than just about any other kit out there. The articulation quality also sets it apart from the rest.

The articulation points themselves are similar to other SD Gundams, but the arms and legs have a surprisingly wide range of motion — not just forward and back, but side to side as well. That makes posing a whole lot easier. On top of that, there's a thoughtful gimmick where the large shoulder armor spreads outward so it doesn't interfere with the arm movement. You can really tell a lot of care went into this one — it's a great kit to put together.

On top of that, you can collect the detached armor pieces and arrange them into a display form, or combine them onto SD Shonen Musha Rekka. Rekka Musha Gundam is actually a key kit in the series that gets combined with other kits down the line quite often. Whether you're a fan of the Musha Retsuden series or just an SD Gundam enthusiast in general, this is a top-tier kit I'd highly recommend to everyone. :-)
