Kotobukiya is going to release the Ayanami Rei ( 綾波レイ ) Plugsuit style ( プラグスーツstyle) 1/7 PVC figure from the Neon Genesis Evangelion movie “Evangelion the new movie” ( エヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版). Will be released in April 2011. Around 220mm tall, 6,800 yen.
Personally I think this Ayanami Rei figure from Kotobukiya is nicely done. But for some reasons some people don’t like it and say her face is off. To me she looks great and I really can’t tell how “off” she is, um…? =/

——Description from Manufacturer—— Sculpted by Uzo Featuring amazing detailing on her hair as well as her beautiful expression and an extremely detailed, realistic base, this figure of Rei brings out all the characteristics that have made her such a beloved character for fans of Evangelion. Inspired by an illustration by Yoshiyuki Sadamoto this figure features a great balance of the deep blue of Rei’s Plugsuit with the light blue of her hair, and the rough lines of the base with her smooth suit. A must have for any Eva fan, this figure brings a whole new perspective to Rei! |

hmm…. a little off, maybe the eye’s smaller?
but you can’t deny the sexy plugsuit she’s on LOL
I’m not very fond of her face either, it’s probably due to her chin, which is not as pointy as Sadamoto’s original character design (Original Artwork: http://yuinyan.imouto.org/sample/ac86faf734581f3ad480e5ea48a7b190/moe%20119497%20sample.jpg).
Aside of that, it’s a pretty great figure, I like plugsuit and the base.
The face is just really wide.
1) i like the plug suit, its all shiney
2) her face is not too bad. although at certain angles, her face looks chubby.
3) the base is nice, reminds me of the Alter 1/8 asuka one.
4) i never noticed this.. but their waistline is terribly unhealthy lol. and their spine is like soggy spighetti
Dat Hip.
Wow, Great!!!
