This is what I have currently. Not pictured is a poster of all the EVA girls and a t-shirt from redbubble featuring the mass-produced EVAs tearing apart a pizza.

FINALLY. I've been waiting for a pair of Mark.06 wool underwear since Kaworu descended from the Moon.
I used to work in a factory and I was really happy because I could daydream all day -- I.C.
And thanks to EVA, I've started like myself and that has made me very happy. Mr. Anno, please keep working on EVA a lot more.
and thank you so much for everything!!

Shingeki no Eva shirt from JList. Better than that Evachu shirt IMO.

So, I hear that there's an Evangelion x SnK T-shirt. I'm buying this and wearing it to classes next month. Perhaps I shall ask for it for the upcoming Jew holidays.

Just recently bought volumes 1 and 2 of the manga off of Amazon. Should be a good read. I wanted to get End of Eva as well but that is still crazy high.

I genuinely love how good Evangelion hurts

I got my copy for around 30 bucks a while back- looked like new, and still had the original cover insert. If you look for long enough, something reasonably priced should pop up for you.

Young Ace will have a Shinji figure for the first time, mentioned in the December issue of Young Ace: http://neweva.blog103.fc2.com/blog-entry-2642.html

It'll be based on the July cover of Young Ace (Last Stage of the NGE manga). Don't know what issue it'll be released in; but just passing this on for those interested.

Statue or articulated figure? Because if it's the latter, consider it bought.

If it's like the other Young Ace figures (of Asuka, Rei, Mari), it'll be more like a statue.

Probably is a placeholder because that is the 2011 cover image.

Heh, I'm aware of the article. I was really asking for his (her?) personal take on it.

EDIT: I'm being stupid. The full text is posted and somebody could have done that at any time. Derp. :facepalm: Anyway, AR-99, I'm jelly that you have it. Enjoy.
