Bandai 1/144 RG Evangelion Unit 00
The Bandai 1/144 RG Evangelion Unit 00 is a Real Grade model kit recreating Rei Ayanami's iconic blue Evangelion from Neon Genesis Evangelion, built with Bandai's advanced RG inner frame system that delivers exceptional detail and articulation at 1/144 scale. This kit captures Unit 00's distinctive blue armour, bio-mechanical construction, and angular Eva design with the surface detail and engineering depth that the Real Grade line is known for. The RG Evangelion series applies Gunpla's most sophisticated 1/144 engineering to the Eva franchise, delivering a build experience and finished result that goes significantly beyond standard model kits.
This kit is designed for intermediate builders and features snap-fit assembly with no glue required.
What sets the RG Evangelion Unit 00 apart is the combination of Real Grade inner frame engineering and Eva-specific bio-mechanical design details that make this a genuinely complex and rewarding build. The RG inner frame provides a fully articulated skeleton beneath the armour panels, allowing for dynamic combat poses that capture Unit 00's fighting style from the series. The blue armour panels layer over the inner frame with the precision fit that Real Grade is known for, and the surface detail across the armour and mechanical sections rewards close inspection. This is best suited for Evangelion fans who want the most detailed 1/144 Unit 00 available and intermediate builders who want a more challenging and rewarding build than a standard HG kit.

Perfect For:

RG collectors building the complete Evangelion unit lineup from Unit 00 through to Mark 06.

Anyone who wants to pair Unit 00 with the DX Positron Cannon Set for the iconic self-sacrifice scene configuration.
Builder Notes:
A fun, relatively straightforward build with excellent articulation and a generous six pairs of hands included for expressive posing. One known issue to be aware of.
The grey section of the upper arm near the elbow lacks a full inner frame connection and falls out when the arm is moved. This affects every kit. Applying a small amount of plastic cement to that connection and allowing it to set completely before posing is the recommended fix. Nail polish works as an alternative. Once secured, the arm behaves as expected.
The heel parts are lightly connected and pop off during posing. The same cement approach applies here if you prefer a permanent fix for display.
Take your time with the sticker application on the darker sections. The flat stickers sit visibly against the dark plastic. Applying them as flush as possible and following with a topcoat improves the result.
