I was taken aback by the steep increase of the price as well, they must be justifying it on the scale of the arms, which kinda doesnt make sense, since we got a unit 5 with 4 large limbs and then a couple of evas with HUGE accesories with the shields for regular pricing
Indeed... Revos have been getting more and more expensive, that is to be expected, but still...
Eva 05 was not
that more expensive than other contemporary figures in the 2.0 and EvaEvo lineup and Space-heist Evas 02 and 08 were not
that expensive either, bulk and all (although those two may get a pass because most of the Eva's body was recycled)
Maybe the sculpt was difficult, maybe production is really complicated, etc. But that price is already on the lower end of a Play Arts Kai!
Now imagine: you buy it and at minute 2:35 it turns out that production changed 1/3 of the Eva for the movie! No thank you! I'll wait
