Fujimi Models released a model of a velociraptor that has the same colors as the Evangelion Unit-01 from Neon Genesis Evangelion. It is not to scale. As well, it is a re-color of the existing free-research velociraptor model from Fujimi. The Evangelion velociraptor model came out on December 6, 2022 and costs 4180 JPY. That is approximately $30.60. [Thanks, Hobby Watch!]
The velociraptor will not require any glue or paint to complete. You will be able to snap all of the joints and parts together. Because you will be able to move the neck, arms, and legs, you can pose this figure if you wish. There are also stickers to put onto the figure. This is for patterns that the makers were not able to re-create with paint.
When a show is as iconic as Neon Genesis Evangelion, there are some things that are instantly recognizable even if you only have a passing understanding of the source material. An example is the purple-and-green colors of the Evangelion Unit-01 appeared on the Shinji version of Cake.jp’s Evangelion cake. There were even purple-and-green crawfish figures (from Fujimi Models) that came out in 2021.
The Evangelion Unit-01 velociraptor model will come out on December 6, 2022, and you can purchase it via Rakuten or Amazon.
