REFLECT is known for his quality sculpts, and this rendition of Shunya Yamashita’s envisionment of Rei Ayanami from Evangelion is no exception. Absolutely gorgeous and stunningly beautiful, it is perhaps in my opinion one of the best non-anime versions of Rei yet. The question is, could Yamato pull it off? Don’t get me wrong, Yamato is a solid company, but after seeing the shoddy work on Final Fight’s Poison, my opinion strayed off a bit.
Looking at the pictures from Hobbysearch, the paint seems decent. Since her hair is shorter I wouldn’t expect any noticeable paint flaws. Overall, the added bonus of being 1/6th scale, I think this figure is well worth the $60 dollar tag.
Rei Ayanami has been out in Japan since late December, and is around ¥6,460
For those of us in America, I believe Ayanami is available now at Kidnemo for $60.89

What do you guys think about her? I haven’t seen any posts on her yet, so the only pictures I have to judge are the ones taken at HobbySearch.
