Note: The Main Unit use by many faction in Gundam 00 season 2, this unit color is used by ESF or Earth Sphere Federation Army. The Red Color of this unit were used by A-law. Overall performance of GN-XIII seem to be quite higher than original Gn-X that use in season one. Gn-XIII can be armed with assort of Weapon and GN Tau Drive which able them to surpassed the old mass produce model such as Tieren use by HLR, Over Flag used by Union and Enact used by AEU.

Review Score
Color: 4/5 { Color is very similar to what appear in anime, only few sticker is needed}
Detail: 3.5/5 { only few part that different from previous GN-X kit }
Equipment: 3.5/5 {Only GN lance ,GN beam rifle and two beam sever were included)
Articulation: 3.5/5 { Standard HG articulation, and every part is holding well allow ranges of movement }
Price: 4/5 { for 1200 yen price, it an standard price for HG }

Review Note: This kit is practically a repainted version of GN-XIII A-law type which released before this one. The kit come with everything the come with the A-law type as well, so in my opinion if you already brought the A-Law type, you might want to skip this guy.otherwise this is an OK kit but it would be better for both A-Law and ESF type kit should include the Long-Range rifle part in the kit like GN-X did.
