but the fit is loose so it tends to spin on its own pretty often.

Together with the HGUC Efreet Schneid / Efreet Kai.

This is the HGUC Efreet Nacht, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's the mobile suit from "Mobile Suit Gundam: The Battle Record," and while it's based on the previously released HGUC Efreet Schneid/Kai, new parts have been added throughout. Close to 70% of the parts have been changed — including the shoulders, torso, forearms, skirts, legs, and feet — making this essentially a near-new-mold kit.

Since the basic frame is shared with the existing HGUC Efreet kits, it still delivers solid articulation and joint strength. The new weapons include the Cold Kunai/Blade and a triple-shot Gatling gun that inserts into the left forearm. The four Cold Kunai can be stored on the side skirts and legs, while the Cold Blade mounts on the back. All these ninja-style weapons let you pull off all kinds of action poses, and thanks to the subdued color scheme, the number of stickers is noticeably fewer compared to the other Efreet versions.

Sure, the design-accurate visuals are a bit on the drab side, but this is a solid variation kit with a hefty amount of new parts. If you had a great time with the Gundam: The Battle Record game, this one should be a pretty welcome addition to your collection. :-)
