Based on Akio Watanabe's (a.k.a. Poyoyon Rock) illustration of his own version of Asuka from Evangelion and beautifully sculpted by Cherry Blossom, it is certainly refreshing to see a different design approach of the popular character after countless variations of the same original anime design in various outfits and poses. Asuka comes dressed in her school swimsuit and holding a training board behind her back. Don't miss out on this beautiful piece and also get Poyoyon Rock's version of Rei as well in the link below! Please note that figures such as this are mass produced and as a result some inconsistencies in finish and painting may occur; these are not considered manufacturer's defects. If you absolutely must have perfection, prepare to do some touch-up work on your own.
