--- SD Gundam Sangokuden BBW model kit general notes -----------------
This lineup was launched alongside the 2010 anime "SD Gundam Sangokuden Brave Battle Warriors," and follows its own unique numbering separate from the regular BB Senshi line. Most kits in the series are essentially repackaged versions of the existing BB Senshi Sangokuden kits, while a few were released as original kits.

The repackaged kits come with slightly changed molded colors along with added weapons or equipment, though some have no extra parts at all. They also include additional eye seals. So honestly, a lot of these kits feel like little more than simple color variants. Another notable change is that "Shin" has been added to the front of each kit's name, and the base price went up a bit to ¥600.
------------------------------------------------------

This kit is SD Shin Kakouton Giros, released as No. 13 in the SD Gundam Sangokuden BBW series. It's based on BB Senshi No. 307, SD Kakouton Giros,with only the molded colors changed and absolutely no new parts. Even then, only the yellow and purple parts have been subtly tweaked in color, so there's really not much to set it apart from the BB Senshi version. The only extras worth mentioning are two additional eye variants and a flag seal thrown in. Everything else is identical to the original Kakouton Giros, so for this review you really just need to check out the updated molded colors. :-)
