--- SD Sangokuden Plastic Model Common Notes -----------------
SD Sangokuden is a lineup released between 2007 and 2009, and all kits share a standardized format with consistent characteristics. The head and waist rotate as a baseline, and the arms and legs use ball joints, giving them more flexible articulation compared to older SD kits. The ball joints do have a tendency to pop off during posing, but overall joint strength is pretty decent.

Each kit has a stamp on the bottom of the feet with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms character's name carved in Chinese characters. Slide molds are applied to the arms and some other parts for a cleaner finish. Removing the outer armor to get a light armor type is similar to previous entries in the line, and depending on the kit, some fairly large weapons are included as well. System injection runners and color separation across four to five or more colors are also used, so even with a small number of seals, the straight build looks great right out of the box. All in all, this is a series that delivers a consistently solid level of quality, and it's fair to call it a hit that did a lot to bring SD kits to a wider audience.
------------------------------------------------------

This kit is the 31st release in the Sangokuden series — SD Kyou-i Gundam F91 — and as the name suggests, it's based on the Gundam F91. Even F91's signature VSBR gets a similar treatment here, reimagined as something called the Yeomgirin.

The weapons include a Yesomchang spear and two Yeomryudo swords, and the Yeomryudo can be used with the flame section deployed. The main body can also be converted into a military form by swapping out parts. On top of that, you can combine the weapons together to build a pedestal for the Yeomgirin.

It's a solid, no-frills SD Sangokuden kit, and I'd especially recommend it to fans of Jiang Wei — the main character who closes out the Romance of the Three Kingdoms story. :-)
