Together with SD Shonen Musha Rekka.

This kit is Shonen Kenshi Ranmaru, released as part of the SD Gundam Force Kaiken Musha Retsuden: Muka Muga hen line. Just like the SD Shonen Musha Rekka, it's a small SD kit at 300 yen, and the key feature this time is the helmet with those big ear-like attachments. Together with the chest armor, this helmet forms the core of the "Muka Muga no Bugu" (Muka Muga armor set).

Thanks to the skirtless lower body design, the legs have quite a good range of forward and backward articulation. The only weapon is a single sword, but that actually makes it a little easier to pull off more dynamic poses. Either way, as a core character in the Musha Retsuden lineup, it's cheap, small, and cute — so it seems like a kit you can just pick up and enjoy without any fuss. :-)
