--- SD Gundam Sangokuden BBW Model Kit General Notes -----------------
This lineup was newly launched alongside the 2010 anime "SD Gundam Sangokuden Brave Battle Warriors," and follows its own independent numbering separate from the existing 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 original kits.

The repackaged kits come with slightly changed molded colors along with added weapons or armaments, though some have no additional parts at all. Eye seals have also been added. So honestly, a lot of these kits feel like little more than simple color variants. Other notable changes include the addition of "Shin" to the front of each kit's name, and the base price has gone up slightly to ¥600.
------------------------------------------------------

This kit is SD Shin Kanpei Gundam, released as No. 40 in the SD Gundam Sangokuden BBW series. It's essentially just a molded color change of the existing BB Senshi No. 310 SD Kanpei Gundam— no newly added parts whatsoever. Instead, one extra eye seal has been added, along with two flag seals. The pearl seals sheet also includes a few seals usable on other kits, specifically for the head antennae/center torso of SD Shin Noajang Guan Yu Gundam and the head antennae of SD Shin Yukuson Zeta Plus. The molded colors are slightly darker overall, but the difference isn't dramatic enough to tell the two versions apart at a glance. Everything else is identical to the original Kanpei Gundam, so for this review you really just need to check out the molded color changes and the seal collaboration. :-)
