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

The repackaged kits come with some molded color changes along with added weapons or armaments, though in some cases no extra parts are included at all. They also come with additional eye seal options. So honestly, a good chunk 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 slightly to ¥600.
------------------------------------------------------

This is SD Shin Ryuusou Ryubi Gundam, released as No. 18 in the SD Gundam Sangokuden BBW series. It's a BBW original kit representing an upgraded version of Ryubi Gundam. Weapons included are the Shincho Ryuuto, Ryuusei Ken (pre-awakening), and Ryuusei Ken (post-awakening), while the weapon rack is carried over from the original Shin Ryubi Gundam with just a molded color change. Overall, the only real difference is a slightly more elaborate armor design — the articulation and weapon features are otherwise identical to the previous Ryubi Gundam. It's still a solid, no-frills SD kit, and the main appeal here is simply that an original BBW version of Ryubi has finally been released. :-)
