Sleek and deadly, this Robot from Evangelion is sure to catch the eye of anime toy fans.
Since my boy was a serious Power Rangers fan in his Tween days, when I think of Bandai, I think of helmet heads and karate. But Bandai’s collector brand – Tamashii Nations – has some really cool exclusives from their 2009 animated feature Evenlion: 2.0 You Can (Not Advance). And Bluefin has them. And judging by these lanky but cool robots, I’m thinking it’s also a sure bet on DVD.
The Robot, affectionately known as “Robot SPirits EVA-01 Test Type, Night Combat Ver.” stands a little over 6 1/4 inches and features interchangeable heads and hands, umbilical cable, cool purple and neon green colors and has great detail. Limited supply of 600, $35.
This classic Gundam collectible is sure to go fast ...
Additionally, Bandai Bluefin is also offering a pair of sweet Gundam exclusives including “00 Raiser Clear Color Version with Three LED GN Drives” 1/100th scale model kit (supply of 300, $60) and the “HG Gundam Exia Repair 2 Metallic Version” 1/144th scale model kit(supply of 360, $15).
With numbers this low though, if you wait until after lunch, they’ll be gone.
