TOY: Evangelion Schoolgirls   JPN   US$15 ea   BUY

Rei Ayanami and Asuka Sohryu Langley get into regulation issue school uniforms, grab their school bags and prepare for another day of reading, writing, and... saving the world from destructive Angels. As the first and second child under NERV operations, Rei and Asuka provide the sole line of defense until Shinji Ikari, Toji Suzuhara, and the mysterious Kaoru Nagisa join the EVA corps.     Sega Toys' new Evangelion figures measure 8" tall and each package includes a pedestal upon which the girls "plug" into. Details of each figure are well carved with wrinkles in the clothing, flowing hair, and clean silhouettes. A nice paint job (no splotches or bleeding) complete the impressive work.
