RG Evangelion Unit 00

The Evangelion Unit 00 was the first successful Evangelion prototype constructed at NERV’s Headquarters in Tokyo-3, Japan. While the unofficial height of the Evangelion Unit 00 makes it tricky to scale, the RG Evangelion Unit 00 will stand noticeably taller than most 1/144 scale models in your collection. The RG Evangelion Unit 00 is also rather slender, as the designers based the RG Evangelions on the proportions used in the Rebuild of Evangelion movies. The Rebuild design also provides Evangelion Unit 00 with an updated color scheme, better suiting the exceptional color separation of the Real Grade line! The RG Evangelion Unit 00 builds into the initial version or the upgraded version seen in Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance, which features traditional Evangelion shoulder pylons.

Included alongside the Evangelion Unit 00 for accessories:

• Pallet Rifle
• Progressive Knife (Deployed) x2
• Progressive Knife (Folded) x2
• Entry Plug
• Umbilical Cable

Articulation –

The RG Evangelion Unit 00 is well known for its commitment to recreating the organic movements of Hideaki Anno’s gigantic humanoid mechs. The internals of the Evangelion Unit 00 is unlike any preceding model kit, providing countless articulation points hidden within the model’s narrow silhouette. By skipping out on a complete inner frame, Bandai created an accurately proportioned model with an incredible range of motion and impressive exterior detailing! The intelligent use of layering techniques and multi-injection molds throughout gives Evangelion Unit 00 a shelf-worthy appearance right out of the box!

Weapons and Other Notable Attributes –

Even Evangelion Unit 00’s Pallet Rifle comes printed in multiple colors, a far cry from the single-color weapon sandwiches of years past. Bandai even created the red markings on the Umbilical Cable using separate pieces! The RG Evangelion 00 includes a variety of hands to hold its weapons and recreate poses from its many on-screen appearances. Builders can insert the included Entry Plug into Evangelion Unit 00’s nape thanks to a clever gimmick by Bandai.
