[Merch] Evangelion Figures Superthread [3]

[Blockio]

Honestly, I'd rather four seperate ones, if you want all of them that's much less waste parts and cost. Or, of course, a quadruple set of them
Although the swappable parts would also only really work in the context of a model kit, different colored armor and all

I'd rather four seperate ones, if you want all of them that's much less waste parts and cost.
Although the swappable parts would also only really work in the context of a model kit, different colored armor and all

Wait... How would a single figure with swappable parts be more waste than 4 different ones? Instead of molding the same pieces four times they just make the different ones. Saves plastic and packaging. I'd rather pay extra for a bulky release than four different ones (plus shipping!)

Also, the swappable parts thing is not uncommon in action figures. RD and Revoltech have done it several times; the last RD Eva 00 comes to mind, as well as Eva 13 and 03.

Now, if they release each Mark unit separately, they better fill that package up! Add the huge-ass chainsaw Asuka uses that wasn't released with Eva 02. Re-runs of weapons or alternate pieces for the other Evas. The weird jumping Eva arms!* Something! They are basically repaints of the Mark 9 they already made!


*man, those were creepy AF!

[Blockio]

yeah, but if you want all four of them, that means you'll end up with 12 sets of unused armor at the end

[SEELE-01]

Ah now I get it!
Yeah... If you want all of them at the same time in your display then it's a waste...

[FullMetalBiscuit]

I figure this is the right thread, but there's a new Kotobukiya Asuka figure in line with the previous ones that had her using a stone Unit 02 as a stand.

I’ve moved into here some merch figures posts that were in the defuncted “Evangelion 3.0 + 1.0 Spoiler Fanart, Merchandise and Cosplay” thread.

[SEELE-01]

Kaiyodo just announced the Evangelion Evolution of Eva 08

[evaunit13]

Bandai finally released more info on their Robot Spirits 08-gamma, and it comes with a halo effect part and uncaged arms to recreate its final form:
https://hobby.dengeki.com/news/1321994/

[Archer]

I must be stupid because I literally don’t remember those arms appearing in the movie at all… are they supposed to be the stuff they grabbed from Euro NERV to give Unit 8 the overlap ability?

[Blockio]

These are from when 08 fights the vessels, after it has started eating them, it grows a new halo with each one it consumes (I think?)
I also really wish that Revo will do an 08y with the same parts, I like their style of joints a bit more in Evas, and it would fit in better with my existing collection

[evaunit13]

Robot Spirits 08 up for pre-order on BBTS for a whopping $180.

[SEELE-01]

What!?
That is 3 times the cost of a regular... Hell, even the ICC version was cheaper than the Revoltech version and it has a crazy sculpt!
Are they locking half their collection behind Limited Editions again?

[evaunit13]

It's crazy considering it barely comes with more plastic than any of the standard releases, and even crazier compared to the bargain bin prices the ICC version hit (I think I got mine for ~$30).

I'll still get it because I like the design, its function in the story, and to complete the line, but it makes my wallet hope that this is also the Final Evangelion (Robot Spirits release).

Edit: they lowered the price to $110; still a lot, but fair compared to 13 and New-02.

[Blockio]

That's... a bit much, yeah. Also I'm an idiot, I completely missed the fact that Kaiyodo had already announced an 08y

[SEELE-01]

That's... a bit much, yeah. Also I'm an idiot, I completely missed the fact that Kaiyodo had already announced an 08y

Pre-orders to begin in September.

[Blockio]

Yeah, I definitely will get one sooner or later.

In entirely unrelated affairs; I was going through my saved drafts when I found something that I had written up years ago but never posted, and now that Shin is finally out and Anima too I guess it felt appropriate to bring it back.
Disregard the fact that I basically rewrote everything from scratch

Here's a question for you guys.

You've been given a huge amount of money and the license to produce Evangelion figures. Through divine providence/a recent massive resurgence in the Eva fandom in Japan, they are guaranteed to sell well enough such that you can make as many as you want at whatever pricepoint you want. There is only one restriction: They all have to be in the same scale (note scale, not size- obviously Gendo will be bigger than Shinji), though the Angels/Evangelions can be to a different scale to the humans for obvious reasons. What scale do you pick? Which characters do you do (and in what order)? How will they be designed? What accessories do they come with? Etc etc.

TLDR: What would be your ideal Eva toyline?

Originally there were also character figures in here, but since those would have easily doubled the size of the damn thing and I wouldn't be getting them anyway, I just decided to not.

rather large wall of text  SPOILER: Show

Since Eva sizes are an ancient alien conspiracy anyway, giving a proper scale here wouldn't do much good; I'd go for a roughly Bandai High Grade size, around 14cm head height for the NTE Evas and a bit below that, 12ish, for NGE bodytypes, with the rest of the stuff scaled broadly to that.
the joint engineering would probably fall close to the Revoltech aesthetic, single universal joints without any noticable gaps to not break the more organic look and the usual joint placements for most things on the body.
Shoulder pylons attached in a similar fashion to Kaiyodo's EvaEvo line, with a small universal joint, but instead of having it attach to the back of the shoulder, it would be to a seperately moving piece of armor between the arm and the main chest to both have the pylon move when the arm moves, but not be forced to completely rotate it out of position when moving the arms far forward; seperate shoulder pylon parts for open/weapon taken out
Standard set of hands, open/grasping/weapon holding/fists for all Evas across the board with special hands where applicable.
Opening entry plug hatch, plug can be slid in and out (also replacement plugs because those things gonna be tiny).
Also a simple stand to put them on.

[SEELE-01]

Yeah, your text is basically erotica fanfiction for figure collectors...

SPOILER: Show

Size: standard RD size, wich is a bit bigger than EvaEvo, but not large enough to be too bulky.
In my perfect world, all Eva's have a tiny swappable piece to put the cover of the Entry Plug out and insert an open hatch with a tiny Entry Plug (like the EvaEvo of Eva 03)
Mostly I'd add all the versions of the positron rifles you missed, transport crosses, the jet used to launch Eva 01 to the Jet Alone.
A deformed Rei face for the MP Evas and exposed-core chestpiece.
Some figures can be collapsed as extras onto another. And all the fan-ficky Evas and angels, starting with those of *ugh!* Anima, would dissapear.
Maybe I'll give a pass to the Battle Orchestra Evas and the Null-Eva from the short.

[Blockio]

:fap:
Yeah, your text is basically erotica fanfiction for figure collectors...

Hahahahahaha yup

the jet that 01 was transported in is the ransport plane I've listed at the very end with the extras, same model as used for the MPEs

..o shit, yeah, I did miss the positron rifles. sneakily adds those, the transport crosses, the Rei faces/cores, the unraveled Longinus for EoE 01 and Gaius to the list where they belong
can you tell I finished this up at ass o'clock in the morning

[TMBounty_Hunter]

New prize figures from Ichiban Kuji and I might be tempted by all of them once international shipping is back to normal....
