You can combine the weapons to build a support mech.
Looks like it's spider-inspired.. but it's kind of sad that it doesn't even have a proper name and is just called "support mech".. T_T

You can rotate the head inside the helmet 180 degrees to switch to the demon armor form face.

--- SD Sangokuden plastic model general notes -----------------
The SD Sangokuden lineup was released between 2007 and 2009, and all kits share a standardized format with consistent features. The head and waist rotate as a baseline, and the arms and legs use ball joints, giving them more flexible articulation than older SD kits. The ball joints do have a tendency to pop out during posing, but overall joint strength is pretty decent.

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

This kit is the 35th release in the Sangokuden series — SD Kakuka Virsago — and just like the name suggests, it's based on Gundam Virsago. The color scheme and overall style really do give off a strong vibe of the original mobile suit.

The weapons include two Kyōkōsen and a Hyōryoken, which can be combined into the Kyokusei-Hyōranken. Rearranging some parts on the light armor form lets you build the military form, and combining the weapons creates a spider-shaped support mech. You can also rotate the face inside the helmet 180 degrees and rearrange the weapons to recreate a demon armor form that looks just like Gundam Virsago Chest Break.

For the crossover feature, you can attach the chest armor of Sima Shi Penelope and Sima Zhao Xi Gundam included in the SD Tenshin Gasshin Chiyu Gundam kit. Mount them on both shoulders and rearrange the parts to create the Chiyu demon armor form.

The highlight of this kit is the flashy, intense-looking demon armor form, and it seems like a solid SD Sangokuden kit worth recommending for both looks and playability. :-)
