April 2003 - An incredible new figure based on one of the hottest anime science fiction properties ever is about to be released, and it is available exclusively in North America through Diamond!

The popularity and success of Neon Genesis Evangelion is immense. An acclaimed science-fiction anime property, it enjoys an ever-growing fan-base that snaps up videos, DVDs, manga, T-shirts, statues, posters, calendars, and action figures. The same fans responsible for the series' past successes won't want to miss out on this newest way to display their devotion to the show.

Imported from Japan, the beautifully sculpted Neon Genesis Evangelion EVA Mass Production Action Figure without Wings is based on the character that made its first appearance in the Neon Genesis Evangelion movie, The End of Evangelion. Standing 7" tall, this figure features multiple points of articulation, variant hands, weapon, base, variant limbs (injured stumps), and a defeated EVA02 articulated base, which is almost a figure itself! Sculpted for Kaiyodo by Katsuhisa Yamaguchi, this superb figure is scheduled to ship July 2003, and is perfect for fans of anime and Neon Genesis collectibles.
