Like I mentioned in the channel, never thought the Orochi looked that good, but with this livery it's off the charts. Top Gear did a short feature about this car along with the other one that was supposed to copy a Bentley or Rolls.

Maybe all the other car manufacturers wouldn't allow such a paintjob?

TBH I see a Skittles mix in that paint scheme more than Eva. At that price point a much better design could have been conceived.

Or take the money and put it into making a great looking itasha.

That doesn't even remotely looks like an Eva or with Eva themed symbols! :|

So all this promotion (going back to the campaign from a few months ago including that 2 m tall Eva-01) means that 7-Eleven replaces Lawson in 4.0 if the world gets fixed and doesn't end up still being shit?

Or Eva is working the konbini chains 1 at a time. Looking at you Family Mart and Circle K Sunkus.

Going back a few years, Yamashita did do a custom scheme for Tamiya's RC race cars that's similar. The main difference being the Orochi's has smoother lines to fit better with the car.

Except that in this case it looks like an Eva-themed product: you have the right colors, the lines, the hexagons, the NERV logo, EVA-01's logo...

But in the orochi car case there's nothing like that, it looks more like the painter got an epileptic crisis while tripping balls on LSD! :lol:
