Asuka Langley Figure-Rise Labo

The color separation on the armor plates is what got me — barely any stickers needed, which is rare for a kit this size. Asuka's hair has that layered shading straight out of the box, and it looks great on the shelf next to my other figures.

The panel lines and face sculpt are surprisingly crisp for this price point, and she poses exactly like the box art shows. Took me about two evenings to finish, but the result looks great on my shelf next to my other mecha figures.

The snap-fit assembly on this Asuka kit went together cleanly in about an hour, and the joints hold their poses surprisingly well for a figure in this price range. She looks great next to my other Eva-themed collectibles, and the included base makes displaying her a no-brainer.
