Bandai Hobby #1 Model HG EVA-01 Test Type Neon Genesis Evangelion Action Figure (Limited Edition)

Arrived early! Box was a little squished but contents inside were fine. Great model kit for beginners. Only difficult part was putting together the entry plug port on her back, make sure to do the steps in the correct order. I recommend painting instead of using the stickers. Poseability in the legs is fantastic. The arms are okay at best, the rubber covering limits it quite a bit. I would of perferred the arm joints to be visible if that meant arm posing would be easier. Other than that, it's a very fun kit!

Looks awesome! The plastic with this feels great, not cheap or fragile like some other kits I’ve gotten in the past. Instructions are pretty easy to follow, shipping was fast and came in great condition. If a fan of the show and looking for something to do for an afternoon, highly recommend

Fast shipping, easy to put together, and lots of fun. Model plastic comes out a bit shiny but just buy yourself some clear flat model spray paint and with 1 or 2 coats it looks much more like its hand painted. Love it.

I love this model, there is so much detail here. The model even includes an entry plug that exits from unit 01's back.. how cool is that!? All the love I'm giving it is deserved but, the reasons I didn't give this 5 stars are: 1. There is one tray of pieces (H tray) that were a bit brittle and required scissors to remove safely without cracking . 2. Certain accessories require you to paint them. The weapons and charge cable, as well as the small shinji included requires paint. Other than that this is great. Would recommend to any evangelion fan. Not only was it an easy build but it is also a great display piece.

Bought it as gift, which is why I need it as soon as possible. And it arrived just in one week ( I paid the express delivery which was $24 more ). Product looks great and is much a treasure for a Evangelion fan

This model kit of Evangelion Unit 01 is definitely the best one from this line of Eva models. A lot of parts that are stickers in the other kits are plastic in this one. The sticker instruction for the sticker on the chest does not do a good job of telling you where to place it, but that is a small issue. It comes with less weapons than most of the Eva kits, but it comes with the JSSDF positron rifle which makes up for that. This is a great model kit, and any fan of Evangelion and Model building should buy this.

This figure is a must have for every fan of the show. Real peace of pop culture history. Made in 96 it still holds up to latest releases with amazing details in its design. Please put some time into it. Don’t be lazy! Watch some gunpla guides, pre build it, have a plan, remove the joints, paint it, add some details, apply some varnish on top and BOOM! 5/5. The experience of building this thing is a real rollercoaster and very in line with the themes of the show. You mustn’t run away.

Really good model. It’s not really hard to assemble all the pieces. It looks fantastic rn (Be careful with the decals, the ones on a blue sheet need water to slide them off.) P.S IT has boths hands, I’m just some kind of retarded

Llegó antes de lo que estaba previsto, me gustó mucho, el detalle es que llegó la caja un poco golpeada, pero eso fue por parte de aduana mexicana que dañó el empaque, pero estoy muy satisfecho con la compra honestamente, si quieren darlo como regalo ya sea para navidad o para cumpleaños no se arrepentirán, ya para finalizar te envían una carta de agradecimiento por parte del vendedor y como extra me dieron un globo de origami muy bonito. altamente recomendable. PD. He tenido contacto con el vendedor y responde de manera rápida y eficaz.

Le model est excellent je le recommande grandement difficile de faire mieux, pour ma part même pas besoin de peinture, déjà excellente

Excellent model if you're a fan of NGE. Be prepared for some painting, as the little details still need painting (like the "holes" in the chest armor and the spaces between to torso armor). But this is really everything you'd want for an eva one model. Construction was very straightforward and simple. The included pictoral instructions are very thorough, and as long as you match up the symbols for the sticker apliqués and water-based decals, you'll be fine. Should you be lost, the pictures on the box are sure to show you where everything goes. I have yet to find a pose where i couldnt somehow balance the model. And it is freestanding, even when lightly shaking the surface it is on. Only thing is you cant twist the arms, so you cant cross the arms or put the arms accross the torso. But this isnt important considering the amazing amount of visual accuracy after light painting making up for any lack of mobility, which is amazing to start with. I wish i could include pictures, the model is really amazing.

The joints become very loose until you end up with a dangly noodle. The build is pretty unintuitive too. Not to mention the whole thing is overpriced. Get it if you want an Eva-01 display piece to display once and never touch again.

Lovely figure to build.
