Didn’t know that Vertex is also going to release Rei Ayanami (Entry Plug Interior Ver.) as a freaking huge 1/6th scale figure similar to Asuka they released last year (which I’m still currently waiting to arrive > <). The cockpit design and its articulated parts are similar with the exception of Rei’s pose. Obviously, since I purchased Asuka, I don’t have a choice but to purchase her as well. I have a strong feeling that Mari will be next. The figure comes with a very hefty price of ¥39,800 and is currently scheduled for a late August 2013 release.
