P-Bandai Gunpla MG 1/100 B-Packs Expansion Set for Narrative Gundam C-Packs ver. KA Review

The MG Narrative Gundam C Equipment Ver.Ka B-Packs Expansion Set offers Gunpla enthusiasts an exciting way to transform the previously released Narrative Gundam C Equipment into its iconic B Equipment configuration. Priced at ¥2,860, this Premium Bandai exclusive delivers a set packed with high-detail features, accessories, and customization potential. Additionally, a bundled version with the Narrative Gundam B Equipment Ver.Ka is also available for those looking to get both the main unit and expansion in one purchase.  

What’s Included:

  • Wired Remote Attack Terminals & Backpack  
  • Small Shields (x2)  
  • Connector Parts for C Equipment  
  • Display stands for attack terminals  
  • Water transfer decals  

While the standalone kit doesn’t include clear blue Psycho-Frame parts (exclusive to the bundle version), the set still offers impressive customizability for existing MG Narrative Gundam C Equipment owners.


Assembly and Compatibility  

Transforming your C Equipment into the B Equipment is a straightforward process:  

  1. Remove Psycho-Frame Components: Detach the Psycho-Frame from the main body.  
  2. Attach Accessories: Install the backpack and shields. The shield joints from the C Equipment are reused for easy integration.  
  3. Plug and Play Backpack: Simply slot the new backpack into the connection points after removing its cover.  

The resulting build accurately recreates the iconic look from Mobile Suit Gundam Narrative (NT), complete with dual wired remote attack terminals. The MG kit’s 1/100 scale and intricate detailing give it a commanding presence compared to the previously released HGUC version.


Design Highlights  

Backpack and Remote Attack Terminals  

The attack terminals are massive, offering a dramatic transformation to the Gundam’s silhouette. Equipped with a cable retraction mechanism, the central drum stores and unwinds cables neatly, allowing for dynamic poses without clutter.  


Shields and Connectors  

The small shields attach to both arms and are modeled with fine detail. They can combine into a larger shield via connecting joints. Flexibility: Joints are adjustable, enabling swinging, rotation, and custom placements.  


High-Detail Additions  

The remote attack terminals are equipped with fine panel lines and separate parts for added depth. Light gray accents enhance visual appeal, balancing with the base unit’s aesthetics.  



Poseability and Stability  

While the set adds significant bulk, the Gundam maintains good articulation:  

  • Backpack-mounted components swing and rotate to avoid interference during poses.  
  • The large attack terminals are compatible with display stands for dynamic, floating action scenes.  
  • The model can stand on its own, though the added weight might require joint tightening over time.  


Customization Options  

C+B Equipment Hybrid  

For builders looking for variety, B Equipment parts can attach directly to the C Equipment frame, resulting in a C+B hybrid configuration. This setup enhances playability and visual impact. Note: Additional joint connectors are required for this transformation.  


Psycho-Capture Mode  

The wired attack terminals can extend their claws into Psycho-Capture mode without part-swapping. Each claw is independently articulated and locks securely when closed, adding functional realism.


Considerations  

Weight Management: The added bulk of the B Equipment can strain the Gundam’s joints. Tightening hip and chest joints might be necessary, especially with older kits.  

Display Tips: While a small base stand is included, larger custom bases might be preferable for enhanced stability during dynamic poses.  


Summary

The MG Narrative Gundam C Equipment Ver.Ka B-Packs Expansion Set is a must-have for Narrative Gundam fans. Its high-detail design, functional transformation, and compatibility with existing kits make it a valuable addition to any Gunpla collection. While the extra weight and joint adjustments could be a minor inconvenience, the set’s visual impact and versatility easily outweigh these concerns.  

Whether you’re a fan of the Narrative Gundam B Equipment or looking to expand the capabilities of your existing kit, this expansion set delivers a stunning tribute to Mobile Suit Gundam NT.
