I saw this but it looks too "plasticky" to me from the photos they've released. Limited accessories, stand, but given the price point, it's okay in my books.

This basically looks like they took their new robot damashii EVA mold and upscaled it and gave it some metal parts. Not a bad price for someone who wants a REALLY big 15.5 inch tall EVA unit. Sadly no entry plug gimmick.

Almost too good to be true, with this size, diecast joints, mouth gimmick, good articulation, and still below 20000yen. Thats like the price in a bargain bin..in today's standard. Unfortunately, I don't think I need a big eva. But very curious what else this line will bring, if it survives.

From the pic they showed only the hip joint and knee joints are diecast. There is some more diecast scattered here and there, like the soles of the feet. 95% of the inner frame is POM, so that'll cut some costs. Also it's prob going to be unpainted, unlike the RAH. I'm always down for another EVA-01 though.

Something tells me that this is the new SoC SPEC Evas that Bandai wanted to have another shot at. Like all the stuff they learned from the SoC and SPEC Evas they used to design these.

So about 6". At $180? That's not too bad. And looks very nice for that. I could live with a set of 6" EVA's.

Sadly no entry plug gimmick. It says it's 170 mm. Doesn't that work out to about 6.5"? So around the same size as the DC's or most SHFA's?

This new action figure is 400mm or 15.5 inches tall.

But that's correct. That's why it almost sound too good to be true. Decent diecast content, a wopping 40cm tall highly articulated figure selling for 19000-ish yen (cheaper with discount, more like 18000yen). The L-Gaim HMR at half the size selling about the same price.

This is the pic I was referring to. Could honestly use more diecast but for the price I am content.

As you guys can see, it's not the entire knee joint system, just the knee part is diecast. Not the entire chest, but just the gunmetal plate part. The same with the ankle, the middle piece that runs through is POM. There is however, a waist joint that I missed. Looks like they did use diecast on that.

I had an order for the Dynaction Eva-01 on Amazon that showed this same release date error. As the release time lapsed, Amazon emailed to confirm that I still wanted the release. Now the order has been canceled, due to "unavailability".
*face palm*
