HGUC 1/144 MS-08TX [NF] Efreet Jäger

The MS-08TX [NF] Efreet Jäger is a high-mobility, covert-assault version of the Efreet series developed for the Principality of Zeon’s Noisy Fairy Squadron. Built on the proven MS-08TX Efreet chassis, the “NF” variant uses enhanced stealth systems and booster configurations for rapid redeployment and precision engagements. Its snorkel-shaped burster pipes are removed to reduce thermal signature, while multi-mode weaponry empowers it for both sniper and guerrilla operations.

Key Features

• Completely new molding to faithfully reproduce the distinct silhouette of the Efreet Jäger.
• Fully pre-colored parts in High Grade scale, enabling detailed finish with minimal paint required.
• Robust articulation includes double-jointed arms and legs, hip swivels and ankle covers for dynamic posing.

Accessories & Armaments

• Dedicated Sniper Rifle — capable of switching between high-penetration rounds and anti-air sacrificial ordinance.
• Sawed-Off Shotgun — compact and racks easily on the rear skirt armor.
• Heat Knife — curved blade that can be posed in hand or attached to the back for storage.
• Cracker Grenade — deployable from the left thigh or hand-mounted rack.
• Optional camera-gun accessory stored like reconnaissance gear.
• Marking stickers and dry-transfer decals included for squadron and unit personalization.

Articulation & Gimmicks

The kit benefits from deeply cut joints and utilises the latest HGUC inner-frame engineering. The skirt armor is rear-split for wide leg articulation, while the ankle casings swivel outward to provide stable kneel and prone sniper poses. Twin leg-mounted vernier boosters can be posed to simulate burst movement or shut-down stealth mode. The sniper rifle features a fold-out bipod and adjustable stock for stable aim, and the heat knife sheath on the left hip can pivot outward for tactical draw poses.

Why This Kit Is Desirable

As a limited-release “Premium Bandai” style item from 2022, this Efreet Jäger stands out with its unique purple/white/grey color scheme and emphasis on stealth-assault aesthetics.

For fans of the Efreet line, Zeon mobile suits or high-mobility sniper types, this model delivers both display appeal and build fun.
