Piloted by the enigmatic Rei Ayanami in Neon Genesis Evangelion, Unit-00 stands apart with its distinctive single eyed head and calm, deliberate presence. This RG model kit gives collectors the chance to own that pivotal Evangelion in the same scale and quality as Unit-01 and Unit-02, completing the foundational trio of the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with every Real Grade Evangelion, Unit-00 is constructed around an advanced biomechanical inner frame. This inner skeleton captures the living nature of the EVA, giving the finished model a muscular, organic feel beneath its armor. The frame is also what enables the impressive articulation, letting Unit-00 move with the eerie grace that defines Rei's fighting style throughout the show.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eArticulation and Screen Accuracy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis EVA Unit-00 offers a full range of motion across the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees, so you can pose it kneeling, aiming, or standing guard. The color separation, achieved through molding and detailed parts rather than paint, reproduces Unit-00's recognizable scheme cleanly out of the box. Depending on the release, you can build either the original test type or the later reconstructed blue coloring, giving you flexibility in how you present this prototype Evangelion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe single eyed head, the smooth armored plates, and the mechanical detailing are all crisply reproduced. Because the surfaces are so clean, Unit-00 takes exceptionally well to panel lining and a protective topcoat, allowing hobbyists to bring out the quiet, unsettling character that makes this EVA so memorable within the Neon Genesis Evangelion story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAccessories and Display\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit includes accessories that let you stage Unit-00 in its most iconic moments from the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgressive Knife and rifle for defensive poses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple hand options for gripping and gesturing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUmbilical cable representing the EVA operational limit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle eyed prototype head unique to Unit-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAction base compatibility for dynamic display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Prototype's Story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnit-00 carries a unique weight within Neon Genesis Evangelion as the very first Evangelion ever activated, the prototype whose troubled test history sets the tone for everything that follows. Owning this kit means owning a piece of that origin story, the machine that Rei Ayanami pilots through some of the series' most pivotal and haunting moments. Its calmer, more reserved design reflects Rei's own quiet nature, giving your display an emotional dimension that goes beyond raw combat presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a build, Unit-00 is a rewarding study in restraint and precision. The smooth armored plates and single eyed head demand clean assembly to look their best, and the payoff is a strikingly serene EVA that contrasts beautifully with the more aggressive units. Many collectors pose Unit-00 in a watchful, defensive stance that captures the sense of a prototype standing guard, a quiet sentinel among the louder machines of the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor any serious Evangelion collector, Unit-00 is the piece that completes the story of the early EVA units. Built glue free with clear step by step instructions, this Real Grade kit is as satisfying to assemble as it is to display. Set beside Unit-01 and Unit-02, Rei's prototype EVA anchors a collection in the roots of Neon Genesis Evangelion and rewards fans with a beautifully detailed centerpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gunpla Depot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50098308972783,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9695\/4351\/files\/eef01809b8a6291609efb7a8c337291d_9587415d-8d5b-4b4b-9e19-65c3b769e91e.png?v=1783105958","url":"https:\/\/gunpla-depot.com\/products\/rg-evangelion-unit-00-1-144-model-kit","provider":"Gunpla Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
