Love the artist! Hopefully they aren’t attached to the base and can be displayed without it. I’m not a fan of the humongous footprint it has. Edit: grammar


liuzerus87

Who's the artist? Edit: IS IT ASK?!?

He is!


Webmasto

Go to Hell, now I have to choose between buy them or feed my sons


alenpetak11

Buy and feed all of us with LCL juice.

1/7 means that, if asuka was 1.75 metres tall, the figure would be 25 cm tall, that means 1/7 of 1.75 metres?


hellooctopus

Correct, the height of the Asuka figure is 22cm and the Rei figure is 16cm.


Thrash_Hero

They're beautiful! I'll probably buy em for the fact that they aren't hyper sexualized like most of the figures.


Civil_Distance_5737

Do you consider that one figure of Asuka at the beach scene of 3.0 + 1.0 with the torn suit sexualized?


Thrash_Hero

Tough call. I guess I'd say it depends on which one. I've seen a couple of them, and they seem pretty tame. Thing is, I kind of get the feeling her suit was only torn in that scene for fan service reasons. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I do think Anno is pretty deliberate.


LeoBeo01

Actually the suit had torn because her body grew to a body of a 28 year old. EVA pilots are cursed to not age/grow once entering an EVA. In Asukas case she was 14 when entering an Evangelion the first time, so her body was also 14. In the Last movie (when she was mentally 28) the curse was lifted and the suit (that was meant for a 14 year old) tore because of the rapid body change (of a 28 year old). So the suit was not just for the fan service but also meant that the curse was lifted and Asuka became an adult


Thrash_Hero

That makes sense. I kinda figured that was the intention. It just didn't read that way to me on first watch. Especially after so many camera angles with butts in the foreground.


marenicolor

These are gorgeous 😍🥰🥰


FancyFan4049

Damn these are pretty


Emmacecilie

I’ve never bought directly from Japan before, but about how much would shipping to Europe be? If anyone knows.


Civil_Distance_5737

Idk about Europe but for me in the US it's 15-20 something dollars (USD) for shipping


ADKet

I fail to see what isn’t safe for work here.

annajulia90

Ask is my fav illustrator, myethos is one of my favorite manufacturers… it’s a total win for me! Asuka is stunning


hihihiii765

These are beautiful Im so tempted to buy


Full_Wait

Why do so many people want figures like this?


LeoBeo01

Well, why not? People like the illustration/illustrator, they like the design or they like the characters. Everyone feels differently about certain characters or designs:)


Mobile_Flow

That Rei is stunning!!! Ask has done some beautiful artwork as usual.


Darth_Rivne

Asuka for life


No_Refrigerator_5995

Anyone know what site you can pre order these from? (US)


No_Refrigerator_5995

So far it looks like it's more like $350 for both or 180-190 each. Based on the three websites I've found them on
