[@Buju7777]

yeah same here. didn't watch the latest movies yet ... since when do we have so many eva units? 🤣

[@nathancarbo]

Eva unit 5-13 are mass production types. 4 is a silver, 3 is a dark purple

[@ultave]

A new EVA introduced in Evangelion 3.0. It is piloted by Mari Illustrious Makinami of the organization WILLE, a rival to NERV.

There are a lot more of them and you can bet bandai is gonna make every model they possibly can. Specially 3, 4, 5, 6 and 9. EDIT: And 13 as a P-Bandai.

i'm sure BANDAI will release a future kit specifically with shield effect, so you have to buy a 2nd kit just for that 💸💰😂

[@reijigamer]

I was hoping that would be included in a DX set.

[@usagiyoshino2428]

There is the option of buying the revoltech yamaguchi eva weapon set which comes with both the cannon and the shield but the size of the shield will be a little small but close enough to cover most of eva 0 body it's just that eva 0 will need to slouch abit more then she should if you don't mind it.

[@666styxxx666]

I just finished the RG Evangelion Unit 1 (had it on my desk for such a long time) and what an amazing model!! you have given me the next RG I wan to do now

[@ZonoYT]

This kit is cool and all, but something feels off seeing an eva without the big pylons.

[@cyner3444]

Happens often in the show though, especially with Eva-00

[@NoahR_]

I'm hoping we'll see a blue version with the pylons. Not sure if it'll happen though since Bandai seems to be basing the RGs off of the Rebuilds over the original anime. Edit: Saw that the pylons are included. I'll just build it that way even if it ain't accurate.

[@NamelessGlasses]

@@NoahR_ It'll be accurate regardless since it had the pylons in 2.0.

[@krysle3337]

@@NoahR_ The box itself features the fact that you can put on the Pylons so I guess it's canon. It's called Eva Unit 00' instead of just 00

Wish we could have a large version of this one like the rebuild kits. The large rebuild kits uses rubber arms that could break due to wear and tear and it make the kits ugly.

Also, I read a few comments asking about the shield, which would be awesome. Honestly feel like the display base should have been an add-on, Unit 01 should have come with the cannon, and Unit 00 should have come with the shield for that sick anime-accurate pose. (Also, would love the sniper rifle as an add-on for the blue retrofit parts)
