Revoltech No.009 EVA-03 Production Model

on
I have been faithfully working towards building up my Revoltech collection, and have given the earlier (actually later model) Revoltech No.027 EVA-02 (1997 Movie Version) a well-deserving gallery. Now, I will try to clear the remainder seven Revoltech EVA units by presenting to you Revoltech No.009 EVA-03 Production Model. Like the earlier EVA-01, The articulation of the earlier EVA units are not as great compared to the newer EVA-02 (1997 Movie Ver.). However, the earlier EVA units did come with more accessories to play with. The EVA-03 comes with a huge cannon, MP5-styled SMG, Tonfa (tuifa), clear full-sized shield, power cable, spare head with opened jaw, eight hands and core body. Shooting the EVA-03 was rather tricky, like Revoltech No.020 Griffon see gallery, due to the high gloss finish on a black body.

Built in the United States by NERV Second Branch in Massachusetts, USA, Evangelion Unit 03 is one of two Units built with the Second Production Model design. It is the sister Unit of Unit 04. The United States' government insisted on having the rights to build Unit 03 and Unit 04. A few minor changes were made between the first and second Production Models. Unit 03's color was unique, with much darker plates than any other Eva. The head was oddly shaped, too, with a rounded top and exaggerated chin. The pilot assigned to it was Toji Suzuhara, but in transit to Japan, it was possessed by the thirteenth Angel, Bardiel, which appeared as a cloud. As Bardiel, it was savagely torn apart by Unit 01, after the control of Unit 01 was switched from Shinji to the Dummy Plug system, designed to simulate Rei Ayanami as the pilot. Toji, the pilot, is severely injured in the anime, but in the manga he actually dies.
