What's the best NGE version of Eva unit 02? The only robot damashii ive seen is the rebuild.
Tamashii SPEC if you can deal with the chubby proportions. If you must have the more athletic proportions your only real options are the LMHG model kit and the old Revoltech.
>>5841601
Probably the SPEC.
>>5841601
If pic related is an indication of things to come, Kotobukiya may release a kit of 02 eventually.
>>5841639
Is it better to just deal with it and get the damashii rebuild version?
>>5841715
That does look pretty nice. Just got the rebuild damashii unit 01 since that one doesn't change design very much.
>>5842210
I dont have any problems with the hip design, what do you think looks bad about it? Overall he's pretty nice, torso is a bit loose but it's not too bad.
>>5842239
>he
>>5841639
>LMHG model kit
Might be this. I just got the blue 00 today and it looks like a pretty nice kit for the age. The arms are significantly less crap than I expected and the instructions make it appear to have modern HG articulation. It definitely needs some paint, but if you know how to do that you're golden.
It's not very expensive, either. Amazon has some for $26 shipped and Mandarake only wants $8-$10 before shipping when they actually have one.
>>5841715
Holy fuck I need it.
>>5842347
I have all of the LMHG kits and can vouch for this too. Love the size, poseability, and accessories. They were the kits that got me into painting. The 02 one is slightly more challenging, since the face needs lots of tiny details (green eyes, whites, orange on the chin)
God, why doesn't Damashii reissue their Eva figs with original colors? I want Unit-00 in non-eyesore colors that doesn't remind me of how badly Anno fucked the franchise in the ass.
>>5846363
I don't see the point in doing that when they still have the Rebuild design tweaks. The anime designs had broad chests and various little differences beyond color placement and palette.
>>5846363
I just want a 02 anime edition robot damashii. The head on the remake one is garbo.
>>5846503
>Unit-00 is a completely different color
00 was yellow-orange before it was blue. Rebuild just skipped the color change and put the binders on early.
>Unit-02 has a completely different headsculpt
Actually, Rebuild just added the horns. Everything else on the head looks the same except for the color placement and the actual face underneath the plating.
>>5846513
Unit-00 was orange in the original. Not yellow. Unit-00 is now as yellow as the fucking sun. The two colors are similar but there is a big difference between them. And that's still not an excuse to not have a figure of Unit-00's most recognized colorscheme.
And that's not even close to true. Unit-02's facesculpt in Rebuild is miles away from the original
>>5846514
Oh hey, it's you from the other thread. The one you crashed by arguing semantics.
>Unit-00 was orange in the original. Not yellow.
Yellow-orange. The yellow end of the orange spectrum. The actual shade seems to vary from scene to scene but it's almost never as dark as the screencap you posted.
>>5846518
It's funny you mention the other thread, because I was also the OP of that thread.
And the majority of the time it is as dark as that scene. We never actually see it as full blown yellow.
And that's still not a damn excuse for them not to produced Unit-00 in its most recognizable and famous color scheme. Which seems to be a point you never address.
>>5846523
I mean seriously, we only really saw it in that color during a): the beserking flashback, which is pic related, and b): the fight against Ramiel, which was at sunset, rendering practically everything orange.
So it doesn't really matter what that book says. As far as I'm concerned you never actually see it as yellow as Rebuild's Unit-00
>>5846514
>And that's not even close to true. Unit-02's facesculpt in Rebuild is miles away from the original
It's not though. A bit of a deco change and the added horns make it seem that way, but when you actually put them side by side the differences are minor.
>>5846523
>And that's still not a damn excuse for them not to produced Unit-00 in its most recognizable and famous color scheme.
For what? The Rebuild figures, or the actual movie which went out of its way to redeco the Evas? If the former, why do you think it's so important that they repaint the movie figures into a color it doesn't actually have? A blue repaint might have some audience as a kind of alt-universe exclusive, but turning the color wheel a millimeter to the left isn't going to make people choose it over the actual movie deco, or even double-dip on the mold.
>>5846536
You weren't really paying much attention to your own photo were you?
The eye placement is now completely different. The chin is hooked up versus bein hooked down. Now there's a crown (which you mentioned). The front of the face also takes a inward curve on the Rebuild version, whereas with the original it had a nosebride-like portion and several ridges preventing it from being as smooth. And the angle it's curved at is completely different.
This analysis was all taken from your photo.
I'm talking about Unit-00 in blue, which was always my main fucking point, you damn idiot.
>alt universe exclusive
Since when did Rebuild become the main universe for Eva? As far as I'm concerned the original TV show holds more priority over that shitty action fad. I honestly don't give a shit whether Damashii's figure is yellow or orange, you're the one who attempted to defend it by saying Unit-00 was yellow in the original, leading to this stupid argument.
It's best that you leave right now before you embarass yourself further
Riobot EVA 1
and
RD Evas are the best hands down. Only wish that RIOBOT made an EVA unit 2.
>>5846541
>You weren't really paying much attention to your own photo were you?
The basic details are there, so it's not a completely different head design.
>I'm talking about Unit-00 in blue, which was always my main fucking point, you damn idiot.
Well excuse me for thinking you were talking about the damn yellow shade you're so hung up on.
>Since when did Rebuild become the main universe for Eva?
I didn't say that. An alt-universe version for Rebuild, as in a blue 00 with things like the white midsection panel and, of course, the slender torso.
>you're the one who attempted to defend it by saying Unit-00 was yellow in the original, leading to this stupid argument.
Yellow-orange, you stupid triggered manbaby. I'm sorry the rebuild movies put a pencil in your puppy's asshole, but that doesn't mean orange isn't made with yellow.
>It's best that you leave right now before you embarass yourself further
You're embarrassing yourself with this chip you're carrying on your shoulder towards anything rebuild-related, lashing out at anyone who isn't in total agreement with you. Blue arms come to mind.
Yeah, I won't post in your thread anymore. I'm sorry I gave you a figure recommendation earlier, and I'll keep this in mind next time you ask to be spoonfed Eva toys.
I dub thee Rebuild-anon. You've earned it.
>>5846547
By that fucking logic Bayverse Optimus Prime is exactly the same as G1 Prime? Well? The basic details are there, aren't they?
You were the one who started the yellow shit as a method of excusing Anno's retarded decision to make Unit-00 vomit yellow.
Does pic related look like orange yellow to you? Does
>>5846514
>>5846525
Looks like fucking yellow orange to you?
The funny thing is that you're so worked up about the fact that Unit-00 was infact straight up orange in the original series, because that renders your shitty attempt to defend that dumb color scheme useless. But the funny thing is, with exception of a book which has been proven thrice to be completely inaccurate to reality, you haven't posted any proof, at all, of Unit-00 being yellow or "yellow-orange".
How painfully embarassing.
This isn't my thread, the "previous thread" you mentioned was. But considering how fucking dense you are I doubt you'll be able to help anyone ITT.
>>5846551
Seek help for your autism, seriously.
>>5846555
Fantastic response anon, you sure showed me with that insult
Waste of trips
I will never understand the bitching about the most minuscule differences between NGE and Rebuild designs. Besides the orange crest on the unit 2 there is almost nothing to logically complain about.
>>5846557
Nobody is "complaining" about the differences except maybe that one idiot who thinks TV 00 was yellow.
The changes between TV and rebuild are not 'miniscule' they're quite obvious to anyone whos actually familiar with the designs. eg: white arms vs yellow arms, Large white stripe around the waist etc.
>>5846560
That is minuscule, dude. A different color here and there are not noticeable to anyone but the most anal retentive of people.
Hell, I only recognized the shoulders being smaller after watch NGE and the 3 rebuilds back to back last year.
>>5846562
>A different color here and there are not noticeable
Seriously? I know some people clue into color more than others, but that's damn stupid. It's like you're telling macross peeps that it's pointless to have more than one VF-1, et cetera.
>>5846574
Well no shit, you can't make out fucking anything with that shit resolution
Are there any decent Angel figures?
>>5842239
The "hip problem" is a troll by RD haters.
>>5846646
I liked the RD and even I hated the hip design. It looks awful when the legs are spread, and in this case I'd rather sacrifice some poseability for nicer joints.
Just because people have opinions you dislike doesn't mean they're a troll.

Too obvious, you're not getting me mad, troll.
Statueshit but I'm gonna ask anyways. I want one of these but don't want to pay the reseller prices and I don't like the eyebags on the bootlegs. I read on MyfigureCollection they just displayed this at WonFes, could that indicate they are reissuing it one more time?
>>5850050
NVM I found one
>>5846514
I can understand people saying 00 is yellow but you're right it's more of an orange yellow. I wouldn't call it orange though it's in between. You're totally right about 02s head though it has a lot of small tweaks that add up to something looking a lot different.
>come here expecting some good eva toy discussion
>it's just the usual eva fags arguing about shit
>>5846551
I mean, if we're getting super autismal you you could look at all the scenes, get the hex codes from screen caps, and roll out from there.
But it is clearly goldenrod so everyone needs to calm their AT fields down.
>>5851503
Thank the trolls.
Somewhat related, what is the best asuka (and rei) figure?
>>5852650
Depends on which Asuka you want.
>>5852884
I'd prefer the original but if the rebuild is better or significantly more available (cheaper) i'd settle for that
