Planet Eclipse A1R Airsoft gun Envy (Medium Grey/Apple Green)

For decades, Planet Eclipse has been synonymous with premium tournament paintball equipment. The A1R marks a genuine first for the company: its first Airsoft gun. Rather than recreate an existing firearm, Planet Eclipse has engineered a distinctive electronic HPA platform with its own design language and Speedsoft at the centre of the brief.

Envy adds vibrant apple green accents to a medium-grey base. The combination reinforces the A1R’s modern Speedsoft identity and its deliberate move away from military replica styling.

The eye-catching colourway houses the same Micro Gamma Engine, electronic control system and Bluetooth connectivity as the rest of the range. Envy is about choosing a fresh, distinctive look without compromising on the A1R specification.

Practical engineering is central to the A1R. Its Micro Gamma Engine drivetrain can be removed without tools, while the adjustable hop-up and four-point adjustable trigger allow players to tailor their setup. The electronics draw on development experience from the GTEK 180R and provide Bluetooth connectivity; that does not mean the two products share every component.

Designed and assembled in Great Britain, the A1R offers ambidextrous operation and accepts many popular AEG M4/AR-style magazines. The German-market configuration is semi-auto only. Planet Eclipse plans an optional conversion kit for Woodland, MilSim and Scenario play, but this is not part of the standard package and no availability date has been confirmed.

Availability  Available to pre-order. Dispatch expected from early January 2027; timing is not guaranteed.
