Hi guys, I'm new here. I Joined EvaGeeks to ask this Question.

In August 2016 (15th-19th) I Traveled to Kyoto Japan. One of the things I had the pleasure of seeing was the "Kyoto International Manga Museum".
Now in this museum near the gift shop there was a Large scaled Asuka Statue. I would approximate around 18 inchs (45 cm) however on the Glass enclosure it had a note that said no pictures. So my self being in a foreign country I complied with the Sign and neglected to take a photo.

I was wondering if anyone Had a photo of this statue 3 years have passed and I still think about it lol. I'm starting to forget what it looks like.

I've searched Ebay, Yahoo! auctions and Google images with no luck

From memories:
it was large around 18inch
had a glossy crimson lance of longinus (almost darker than normal)

Has anyone seen this statue in person before?
even if you don't have a picture maybe you could help me fill so gaps in my memories

We may be able to help you, but not really without a picture. Even a rough sketch of the pose would help, with just that bit of written info, this is just about impossible with the abundance of Eva merch out there.
One tip that generally does help: Try using proxy buying sites like buyee or neokyo, you find a lot of rare stuff on the Japanese market that you have no hope in hell of tracking down anywhere else, let alone at a reasonable price

Not really many statues I know of with Asuka holding a lance (seeing as that is mainly Rei's deal)

Is it either of these 2? The top one seems a lot more common.
