Did you ever think about moe-ficating your smartphone? I did when I saw this Evangelion iPhone case lately somewhere on the interwebs. Being still fascinated by Evangelion 2.0 I couldn’t resist and ordered the Rei version. The only shop still having a few in stock was Strapya World. Haven’t heard about that shop before but looked quite solid and they didn’t disappoint me. The small package arrived here in less than two weeks, which is really good for SAL shipping.

It’s now two days after watching Evangelion 2.0 in Munich and time for a few words.

Note: I’d like to keep this post mostly spoiler free, as it would be a really cruel thing considering the plot of the movie.

Starting off with a battle between EVA 05 (Provisional Unit), piloted by Mari Illustrious Makinami fighting against the third angel. (It’s hard to recall the first few minutes, cause if you aren’t used to watch anime in a cinema it’s just too overwhelming at the beginning.)

This initiating battle scene is actually representative for the direction of the whole movie, as you notice that it is much more than a rebuild of the original series.

What’s the best after a week of weapon maintenance?

Yus, unpacking some figures xD

Another figure parcel arrived today from Archonia.com containing four figures from NGE. Seems like the financial crisis didn’t reach me yet. (Btw: Who is able to name the weapon I disassembled in the first picture?)
