Premium Bandai has released the 00 XN “pronounced Sun” Raiser from the Mobile Suit Gundam 00V side story in the Real Grade series.
The kit shares the same molds with the regular retail released 00 Raiser with newly molded parts to form the XN Raiser Equipment, including the GN Buster Sword III which is the signature weapon of the 00 XN Raiser.
00 XN Raiser
The 00 XN Raiser gains another set of arms for use in combat in addition to being able to carry more weapons thanks to its extra pair of manipulator arms. When the XN Raiser is docked onto the 00 Gundam, its binders fold up rather than docking into the twin GN Drives of the gundam. As a weapons backpack, the complete system docks onto the back of the 00 Gundam.
GN Buster Sword III
The GN Buster Sword III can be combined into one to form a double-sided Buster Sword that rivals the GN Buster Sword II from the GN-0000/7S 00 Gundam Seven Sword in size. It is a melee weapon with first-class destructive power, but its size made it difficult to handle and therefore limited its use.
The GN021XN XN Unit-equipped GNR-010 0 Raiser configuration is known as the XN Raiser. While the XN Raiser has the same armaments as the original 0 Raiser, it gains two GN Buster Sword IIIs for use as ramming weapons, enhancing its fighting power. To carry more weaponry, the unit also features an extra set of manipulator arms. The entire vessel docks into the back of the 00 Gundam when merged, leaving the sword handles exposed for 00 to wield right away.
XN Raiser
The XN Raiser was designed to let the 0 Raiser to compete with the 00 Gundam in combat. However, this design was never made, and the unit only exists as simulation data because the 0 Raiser is usually docked with the 00 Gundam. The creation of upcoming units would benefit from this data.
XN 00 Gundam
The kit can also be converted into XN 00 Gundam by removing the 0 Raiser support unit.
The GN021XN XN unit is mounted on the back of the 00 Gundam combination; the 0 Raiser is not included in this setup. The XN unit's defining peripherals are still attached to 00 Gundam, enabling it to use two GN Buster Sword IIIs and an additional pair of manipulator arms for four-handed fighting.
The kit is also completed with a sheet of newly designed water slide decals, a display base for the XN Raiser, and weight support stand for the GN Buster Sword III.
