Take your Cosmic Era collection to new heights with the MVF-X08 Eclipse Gundam MG 1/100, an outstanding Master Grade release from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED ECLIPSE. Designed by Junichi Akutsu and engineered by Bandai Spirits, the Eclipse Gundam combines sleek stealth technology, high-speed transformation and Master Grade precision into one of the most innovative Gunpla kits in the SEED universe.
Developed in secret by the Orb Union, the Eclipse Gundam is capable of transforming between an agile Mobile Suit and a high-speed Mobile Armor form, while remaining compatible with a wide range of Striker Packs for expanded mission flexibility. Its striking design, exceptional articulation and impressive transformation make it a standout build for both SEED fans and Master Grade collectors.
A Secret Mobile Suit from Gundam SEED ECLIPSE
The MVF-X08 Eclipse Gundam was secretly developed by Orb as a next-generation transformable mobile suit for covert operations and long-range missions. Built using technology derived from the Freedom Gundam, it incorporates Phase Shift Armour, a Mirage Colloid Stealth System and a high-performance transformation mechanism that allows it to switch seamlessly between Mobile Suit and Mobile Armor modes.
Piloted by Tatsumi Hori, the Eclipse Gundam plays a central role in the Mobile Suit Gundam SEED ECLIPSE manga, showcasing incredible speed, versatility and adaptability in combat.
Fully Transformable Mobile Armor Mode
One of the biggest highlights of this Master Grade kit is its complete transformation.
Bandai has engineered the Eclipse Gundam to transform between:
- Mobile Suit Mode
- Mobile Armor Mode
The transformation is achieved without sacrificing the model’s proportions in either form, allowing builders to enjoy both display options while maintaining stability and screen accuracy. The streamlined Mobile Armor configuration emphasises the Eclipse’s role as a high-speed strategic aircraft capable of long-range operations.
Compatible with Striker Packs
Like the legendary Strike Gundam, the Eclipse features a Striker Pack connection system.
The MG kit includes compatibility joints that allow it to equip a variety of separately sold Striker Packs and equipment, dramatically expanding its combat capabilities and display possibilities. This flexibility makes the Eclipse one of the most customisable Master Grade kits in the SEED lineup.
Whether you prefer a high-speed assault configuration or a heavily armed combat loadout, the Eclipse is ready to adapt.
Signature Weapons Included
The Eclipse Gundam comes equipped with its standard mission equipment, including:
- Two Type 72E4 Beam Rifles “Jinrai”
- Two Beam Sabers
- Two Beam Shield effect parts
- Multiple interchangeable hand parts
- Display stand
The Beam Rifles also function as stabilising wings in Mobile Armor Mode, while the Beam Sabers are stored within the rifle grips, faithfully recreating the clever weapon design seen in the manga. The Beam Shields can be deployed on either arm for defensive or close-combat use.
Outstanding Master Grade Engineering
Built using modern Master Grade technology, the Eclipse Gundam features a detailed internal frame that delivers both strength and flexibility.
The model offers:
- Excellent articulation
- Stable transformation mechanism
- Opening cockpit hatch
- Detailed internal frame
- Colour-separated armour
- Dynamic posing capabilities
Despite its advanced transformation system, the Eclipse remains highly poseable, making it easy to recreate dramatic combat scenes or elegant flight poses.
Perfect for Customisation
The Eclipse Gundam is an outstanding project for experienced builders looking to personalise their Gunpla.
Its clean armour panels and modern design are ideal for:
- Panel lining
- Water-slide decals
- Metallic detailing
- Airbrushed shading
- Matte or gloss top coats
- Custom Striker Pack combinations
- SEED-themed display dioramas
The included marking stickers already provide an impressive finish, while additional detailing can elevate the kit into a true centrepiece.

- MG Freedom Gundam Ver.2.0
- MG Justice Gundam
- MG Strike Gundam RM
