Quick Post: Revoltech EVA Type F get!

I went to Greenhills today to pick this baby up. It’s the EVA-01 Type F. It’s basically the EVA-01 with additional armor which I think is more coolsome than the basic look that we are more familiar with. Now this post is quite rushed but I’ll definitely post better pictures in the coming days to showcase this particular action figure.

If you’re fond of hands, you’ll definitely enjoy playing with this action figure. It comes with lots of hands. It has two hands to hold the two daggers that come with it. It has the default closed knuckle hands. It has two spread out hands and there’s that single hand that has the force choke pose as well as the open palm salute-looking hand. Then there’s the shoulder piece that has those energy balls on them. It also comes with an extra head with the jaw open.

Initial reaction to this model kit is that it’s big. Definitely bigger than Prime. Take a look at the picture below with my hand as reference.

It has a large ass. This makes it hard to make the action figure stand on its own. (The build appears to be quite good and stable so making it stand on its own is surprisingly easy.) Plus the fact that it has small feet in proportion to its large ass. The ankle revolver joints are positioned in such a way that they can actually ensure that the model kit is standing in a stable manner. The limb joint articulation is limited so it’s hard to make the squatting-while-pooping pose. The thighs are too wide or thick that it hits the back skirt so you can’t really bend the hip joint backwards that much. But what I appreciate are the revolver joints at the wrists that make the hand changing a lot easier as compared to Prime where I have to use my teeth (seriously) to remove the hands. It could also use a bit more panel lining which I’ll work on within the week.

I definitely appreciate the better quality of revolver joints.

I’d love to write some more but my brother is bugging me to get off the computer so he can play Diablo 2 and I’d like to play with the EVA-01 a bit more.

Much thanks to Pats Sy of Wasabi Toys! Looking forward to getting that Full Drillized Gurren Lagann!
