Aside from the massive new GN Sword, the backpack has been altered to include a more traditional GN Drive Cone and a mounting sub-arm for the new sword over the right shoulder, and the head crest is a new part that more closely resembles the lineart and on-screen versions (thinner and pointier). The included dry transfer decals also include markings for the sword, but the ones for the main body are identical to the regular version; the stickers for the GN condensers that go under the clear plastic are a slightly lighter color, but have the same details (lines, labeling, etc). The included stand is also much larger and able to hold the entire kit as opposed to just the sword. Otherwise, the rest is basically the same, with no real changes to the internal structure or molding colors. Any decals for this kit should work 1/1 for the original and vice versa
