They are not explicitly said to be the same, and it is in fact unlikely that they are - Unit 08 apparently has its own pilot, distinct from Kaworu, and is said to be "quickening" (about to be born - actually, could someone clarify whether this is referring to the pilot or the Eva? I've never been sure) - which does not really apply to Mark 06. They do look sort of similar, since both are apparently modeled roughly after Unit 01.
Nothing is so valuable that it need not be started afresh, nothing is so rich that it need not be enriched constantly.

Well, if the Eva is having fetal movement inside of it, that would imply that the pilot is the fetus. "To quicken" is "to reach the stage of pregnancy at which the child shows signs of life". So that, too, would suggest that Mark 06 is not really related to Unit 08, if the pilot of Unit 08 has yet to show signs of life.
Rather reminds me of Berserk. Hopefully Shinji/Rei is in a better mood than Griffith.

Gotta find yourself a better picture than that, Pengin-chan. Eva-06 never looked like that -- least of all now!

It's from a doujinshi series called Eva Fix. The artist is "Chocolate Shop"; the style they do their Evas in is homage-to-the-point-of-ripoff of Ikuto Yamashita.
I know you're new here, Pen-Pen, but please try to stay on topic.
It's just a screenshot. You haven't seen the movie?

Maybe in 3.0 we'll see the 3 institutions trying to control the 3rd impact with their respective EVA's, Gendo with unit 01, Seele with unit 06 and Maybe Mari's boss's with another pilot in unit 08. o.O
Pd: in the 3.0 preview is any1 agree with me that unit 08 has a giant Halo (unit06-look like) ?

Perhaps the pilot is a new Dummy Plug series (such as saying the ones Nerv released during the battle with 03 were test types?) and the Quickening refers to that, using the entry plug as reference to the womb instead? YEs, I ripped that partly from the Frued was Right page on TvTropes. >>

Here's something to chew on.
I think NemZ made this observation a while ago -- not that I believed him then.
