    jimoinj - if I had to put a label on Misato's relationship to Shinji, I'd go with 'big sister', although, being his legal guardian, she does try to act as a mother figure (in End of Evangelion, she reflects at one point that she wasn't really much of a mother to Shinji). I think her 'flirtiness' is more an attempt to get him to 'loosen up' than a serious attempt at intimacy, but that's me.

    Dkaris - congratulations on the acquisition! Just out of curiosity, which Spec Unit 01 do you have, the original series one or the Rebuild one?

    I recently managed to get my hands on the Tamashii Spec web-exclusive Positron Rifle from Evangelion 1.0.

    More pics in the photography thread.

    I took advantage of that 10% off eBay sale in February to get these:



    The soundtrack for Evangelion 3.0: You Can (Not) Redo and Bandai Robot Spirits Evangelion Units Two and Three.

    I got bored of the design, it was an inspiration back then, to me these are dated, even the NEW Metal build I am over it. It was ridiculous people charging 35,000 at NY site.
    I have all four of the Bandai Spec design, and I am about to retire them from my display as it no longer "wow" me in the mecha scene.

    But saying that, If you into them the Mafex will do fine. I actually hate the BS of this design being upgraded and adding a lot of weapons that the Eva units never even touched in the anime. Is just giving an excuse for you to buy and update.
    I personally wished Bandai continued the perfect grade EVA units but they only done 01 which was a shame.
