An incredible new statue based on one of the hottest anime science-fiction properties ever is about to be released, and it's available from Diamond Comic Distributors.

Neon Genesis Evangelion is one of the most popular anime properties of all time, and boasts a loyal army of fans that continue to make DVDs, videos, clothing, and toys based on the robot-themed space opera into top-selling items. The same people behind the series' past successes won't want to miss out on this newest way to display their devotion to the show!

Imported from Japan, this beautifully sculpted Neon Genesis Evangelion Rei Ayanami Resin Statue perfectly captures the hit show's quiet and enigmatic EVA pilot, Rei Ayanami, in all her galactic glory. Standing 12" tall, the statue presents Rei in her traditional pilot's uniform as she stands atop the crucified angel Lilith wielding the two-pronged Lance of Longinus. This intricately detailed work of art comes fully painted and ready to display, and is scheduled to ship in December 2001 - making it the perfect holiday gift for hard-to-please "anime-niacs" and "manga-philes" alike!
