OK! this is kinda shocking: Back in 1995 Mass produced Eva's were looking like this: http://www.toysnjoys.com/revoltech/revo ... hwings.jpg
And now for the Rebuild of Evangelion series, they turned the EVA -UNIT 05 into this: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3565/346 ... 97ed0d.jpg
May I have your opinions please????

Seriously though, apparently Unit-05 is an actual Unit in the Rebuild movies with an actual pilot. Not just a mass produced Unit.
Technically, it was '97 too.

The blue one is Unit-00 (fans sometimes call it 00' to specify), fitted with new armor after the battle with Ramiel. Note however that, as we see in the trailer for Rebuild 2.0, Unit-00 apparently does not take on a new color of armor after said battle.Sunstreaker2 wrote:Did they ever make the blue one? Eva 04, I think?
Unit-04 was never actually shown in the original series. Bandai made a Unit-04 model kit as a repaint of Unit-03 in silver, and everyone else went along with that.
What Unit-04 will look like in Rebuild, if it is even shown, we do not know yet.
I like the look of the new Unit-05 as a mecha, but not as an EVA.
Here are the two discussions of it on CDX:

No longer looking for RID Dreadwind, but I still need Smokejumper. I'm also in need of Mammoth Nemesis Prime's tail piece, as my figure lacks it. Send me a PM.

That's Unit-03 and I consider it a lot more black than it is blue...but depending the lighting and stuff, different colors and shades are at times apparent.Sunstreaker2 wrote:Not that one, the one piloted by the Fourth Child.
There is a Revoltech figure of it and apparently a new one coming out soon, that is rumored to be some kind of exclusive.
Unit-03 will be appearing in Rebuild 2.0, with minor deco modifications.

I really like it so far, and can't wait to see a full body shot of 06.
Of all the "new" ones, my favourite is the 02 redesign. Nevertheless, it'll be a few years until I get to watch the new movies, so until that point I'm all for reading about them and that's how I'll find out more about the new 05.

I would add something to the discussion but there's really nothing to mention other than 05 disappering along with a branch of NERV, and it being the white twin of unit-04.
While being on subject of NGE: Does anyone know if they will be bringing in a Mana Kirishima type character in to the movies, perhaps a romantic interest for Shinji?

You added a number on both the units you mentionned. Unit 04 dissapeared with the US branch of NERV, and it was a silver look-alike of unit 03...HeavyArms wrote:I would add something to the discussion but there's really nothing to mention other than 05 disappering along with a branch of NERV, and it being the white twin of unit-04.
