Evangelion Rei Asuka Witch Theme — Rei Figure (Japanese Import!)
Evangelion Rei Asuka Witch Theme -- Rei Figure (Japanese Import!)
Manufacturer: Japan
Rei and Asuka have taken to the skies like never before! These amazing PVC statues feature Asuka and Rei in a style of sculpted statue on par with anime sculptures. Each statue stands 6 inches tall and features our two favorite anime girls in pointed hats, riding classic straw brooms. Each outfit is custom tailored and features different colors and accessories. Asuka dons her little black dress, complemented by her stripped black and red stockings and red and green cape. She also features an out of the ordinary witches hat, with two point instead of one (for her twin pig-tails). Rei models a more modest white dress with furrels and black trim, accented by her black and green cape tie. She is also accompanied by her tiny black cat riding on the tip of her broom.

I don't get why every toy has the educational rating. I guess I could've given a higher rating for that on the basis that if you're in the midst of learning Japanese, you can get some practice reading the box. I'm also confused as to why they gave this toy an 18+ rating. It's just Rei in a witch outfit, there isn't anything vulgar or lewd about it.
Anyways, I'd highly recommend this figure to any collector, especially those who collect witch figurines. This one fits in well with my Yuki Nagato and Louise the Zero figures. It stands roughly 15 cm tall. The product is of pretty high detail, mainly the eyes and hair which have a great resemblance to Rei in the show but in my opinion, more like Rei in the, "Shinji Ikari Raising Project." It's very durable, even if you were to drop it I'd doubt there to be even a mark on it.
The complaint I have about the material used to make this figure is that it changes. Everything is made of the same material save the hands and legs. While everything else is made of the typical pvc plastic used for most figurines, the legs and hands are made of a plastic that feels more like the plastic used in a model kit. I figure this was done with the intent of giving those parts a shinier look than the clothing and the hair.
And finally for the really anal people out there, there was a defect in mine. Under the rim of the hat there was a slight bubble in the paint it looks like. This has no real effect on the product being that it's under the rim and out of sight but I mentioned this as a warning that yours may have a defect elsewhere, say on her face or maybe on the cat. I didn't notice any blemishes in the painting, so when just looking at the figure, not actually studying it, it looks pristine.
So I'll conclude by saying that this is a great figure for anyone, no matter your interest. It's made with great care and would easily fit in with any of your favorites. (don't put it next to Turn A though, Turn A trumps all)
