Together with the original SD Tenshō Daishogun

This kit is the SD Toyotomi Hideyoshi Gundam, released as part of the SD Sengoku-den Mushin Kōrin-hen series. It's essentially BB Senshi No. 100 Tenshō Daishogun with a changed molded color and a few extra accessories thrown in.

The other kits in the Mushin Kōrin-hen lineup are based on kits from the 2000s onward, but this one goes all the way back to the Tenshō Daigundam from 1992 as its base — so inevitably, the overall quality feels a bit behind the others. The molded colors have changed quite dramatically though: the black and yellow gloss injection molding creates a striking complementary color contrast. The weapon sections also get pearl-finish clear yellow parts applied, so there are quite a few changes overall.

On top of that, extension parts have been added to the legs in an interesting move, lengthening the section between the feet and lower body and making the kit noticeably taller overall — it feels like they added these to match the height of the 200-series kits. Structurally, the helmet decoration has been changed, and a flag made by cutting out pieces from the manual plus a foot soldier have been newly added. The ability to recombine the weapons into a different mech is still there, but the manual only covers the Diver Salamander combination and skips over the Tenshō Phoenix entirely.

The completely different color scheme from the original kit and the extra parts boosting its height are definitely enough to set it apart. That said, even by the time this kit came out (2009), it was already recycling a 17-year-old kit — so you'll want to go in with adjusted expectations. :-)
