Crunchyroll’s first-ever ‘Summer of Anime’ celebration is coming to an end, but they’re not wrapping it up quietly. This final week of their month-long sales event is packed with amazing anime deals, and one particular item is stealing the show.
Crunchyroll has announced that the star of this last week is a stunning figure of Rei Ayanami from the famous anime Neon Genesis Evangelion. Rei is a beloved character, and this new figure is based on her look from the RADIO EVA lifestyle brand, which mixes Evangelion characters with everyday fashion.
The figure is 1/7 scale, meaning it’s pretty big and full of incredible details. Rei is shown wearing stylish clothes like a Backstage Pass Mods Coat, a Fila Monogram Logo Sweatshirt, Evangelion Line Pants, and Fila Barricade XT 97 sneakers.
The colors are mostly gray and dark, making Rei look super cool and fashionable. Hobby Max Japan made the figure, and it was sculpted by Saori Rai, making it a must-have for any Evangelion fan.
But that’s not all. Crunchyroll’s final week of the Summer of Anime event is filled with other exciting deals too. If you spend $75 or more, you even get free shipping in the United States. Here are some of the highlights:
