Mmm delicious Evangelion merch. *o*

Asuka and Rei looks gorgeous, and Rei's carrying the Lance of Longinus. XD";

Makinami looks pretty, but her plug suit looks real freaky ahaha. DDDD:

Seeing all these pics of EVA mech makes me want to get one. DDD: I'm sort of partial towards casual!Makinami, for the superficial reason that she's cute ahaha. I don't know how her personality's like. Maybe I could buy the NEWTYPE mag just for her. xD

The Bottle-on Asuka looks really pretty too. There's just too much nice stuff for EVA. *concentrates on gunpla or something*

Sorry to butt in, bud, but it's hard to compare the two. Eva's had 15 years and a million different spin-offs and re-imaginings to justify (mostly) the massive quantities of merch; 00, on the other hand, first aired... two years ago? Or was it a year-and-a-half? I'm not sure, personally. But, if you meant to compare the Gundam franchise as a WHOLE to Eva, then... it has oodles more merch. There have been about 857 quadrillion Gundam series', after all, and even the "bitch" ones (Turn-A Gundam, for example) have been milked for all they're worth. ):

@arxilius and ratiosu since I'm too lazy to type the same thing twice.

Did I actually sound like I was comparing 00 and Eva? My bad then, didn't mean it that way.

Anyway, I may have expressed it wrong, but GAINAX has, imo, a better way of promoting its series than Sunrise. You get lots and lots of figures as well as kits, Revoltechs, etc. when even the smallest oportunity appears. I mean, there are already two Mari figures and we don't even know what she's like. How many figures has Yoko got, seeing that GL aired two years ago? Sure, Bandai is releasing an incredible amount of kits, but if I wanted to buy a Four figure, for example, I only have two or three choices, and this is from a show that aired twenty years ago and is still very, very popular today. How I wished she had a big figure in her second outfit bawww.
