Evangelion Production Model 2 Beta Plastic Model Kit Kotobukiya

Neon Genesis Evangelion is a Japanese media franchi
se created
and owned by Gainax. Most of the franchise features
an
apocalyptic mecha action story, which revolves arou
nd the
efforts by the paramilitary organization NERV to fi
ght hostile
beings called Angels, using giant humanoids called
Evangelions
that are piloted by select teenagers (of whom Shinj
i Ikari is the
primary protagonist). Other works deviate from this
theme to
varying degrees, focusing more on romantic interact
ions
between the characters, side stories which did not
appear in the
original works, and/or reimaginings of the conflict
s from the
original works. The franchise began in 1995 with th
e titular
anime directed by Hideaki Anno and has since grosse
d over 150
billion yen.
Evangelion Unit-02 is the third Evangelion completed
, the first
Production Model Evangelion. The design of Eva-02 s
upposedly
rectifies the mistakes made during the construction
of Prototype
Eva-00 and Test Type Eva-01, making it the first Ev
angelion built
specifically for combat against the Angels.
This Evangelion is unique in having bluish-purple b
lood, blue-gray
skin, and four eyes. (All other Evas possess red bl
ood, and, for all
non-Mass Production Evangelions, including Eva-00,
two eyes and
brown skin are the standard.) The eyes are a unifor
m fiery orange in
color.
