    The only Revoltechs i got were unit 01 and 02 from when they were first released back in oh... 2006ish? I was kind of disappointed with them, the plastic seems very bendy, almost like rubber, the detail wasnt bad but some paint apps were poor. I also have one of the Bandai Soul specs, teh Unit 01 awakening (purple, with orange-red highlights insteads of green) Im in love with that figure. I dont really care that its not all die cast like the earlier chogokins, but it definately makes up for it in poseability, detail and accessories. Also waiting for the robot damashii unit 01 release.

    I have Units 00 (Blue version) and 01 from the Kaiyodo line and want to get my hands on 02 and 03 at some point.

    I bought _one_ Evangelion toy in Japan. It wasn't terribly exciting and it's since been stolen. I have several other EVA toys, but I didn't pay for any of them (they're all gifts from other people) - including small pewter statues of Rei and Asuka mounted on wooden bases which I've been told are quite rare.

    Yeh, a freind got me one of Rei's unit when the show was first out in Japan. It has some cool acceseroies, but I have never played with it much. Might drag it out and have a look later on. Looks nice, not sure about articulation though.

    I built up one of the HG bandai eva unit 01 model kits last week. A very exciting build that only took a few hours. The articulation is excellent, including a double jointed neck, double jointed waist, lots of articulation in the legs, knees and ankles as well as shoulders, arms and hands. Also the shoulder pad parts are move able. The kit stands about 8 or 9 inches tall, comes with the gattling gun thing from the first new movie, as well as a prog knife and pallet rifle, umbilical cord and entry plug.

    The cool thing about this kit is its pretty detailed, and doesnt really need any painting to make it look good. (apart from the weapons, tehy need a paint =])

    I dunno about you guys, but i really dont like the new version of unit 02, the white on the arms... the jetpacks and the horn thing on the head. it just doesnt sit well with me. I like the look of the new revoltech unit 02 "beast" but i think a chogokin or robot damashii would be a better alternative to a revo.

    Yeah I'm a sucker for anything Evangelion. Things from Revoltech, figurines to the anime cels. Damn things are making me poor but at least they make my room look good
