RIOBOT NERV Anti-G Special Decisive Weapon
Shiryu(Purple Dragon)
Prototype Unit 01
To
fight against "Godzilla"…
the
monster which attacked and destroyed Japan's capital Tokyo countless times and
considered as "disaster" just as the "Angels" are,
this is an "Anti-G Weapon" which NERV constructed with technical data feedback from the "Kiryu Series" developed by the Japan Counter-Xenomorph Self Defense Force in the past.
It is at its prototype stage, and is given the name "Anti-G Special Decisive Weapon - Shiryu (Purple Dragon) Prototype Unit 01."
Among
its armaments, are small blades on its spine and tail utilizing the same
technology as the Progressive Knife, which can sever various objects at a
molecular level using high vibration particles.
Also,
it boasts a high close-combat capability with the "Anti Kaiju Battle
Blades" attached to its arms.
… And thus, this time,
we are introducing the colour prototype of
"RIOBOT NERV Anti-G Special Decisive Weapon
– Shiryu(Purple Dragon) Prototype Unit 01",
which came from an exotic collaboration project "Godzilla
vs Evangelion"!
Designed
by Yoji Shinkawa of Kojima Productions!
And incorporated with extensive robot setting, it becomes the
latest RIOBOT item which attracts not only Godzilla fans but also Evangelion lovers' attention!
Please look at the amazing product
details!
Design for the "Shiryu" is by
Yoji Shinkawa of Kojima Productions, as a product for the "Godzilla x
Evangelion" collaboration project, skillfully merging the world of
Godzilla and Evangelion together.
The figure is about 18cm tall.
The base color is titanium-imaged, which
gives a feeling of depth to the final finished surface.
The small blades on its spine, which
utilizes the same technology as the Eva Progressive Knife, is sharply made and
painted with gradation to produce a unique texture.
The fluorescent embellishment in head
and arms is incorporate smoothly into the design, as reminiscent of Eva.
Its body being mostly consisted of ABS
plastic, and nylon based parts for articulation.
The wide range of motion enables it to
take a hunchbacked pose like a "Kaijyu" (monster), or standing straight up like
an Eva unit.
The jaw can be open or closed, so posing
which images a roar scene looks very powerful.
"Anti KAIJU Battle Blade" can be equipped in both
arms.
You can swap the blades freely to represent in-use (expanded) or
not-in-use status.
Since the main body has a wide range of motion, the posing using
the blades is full of dynamism!
