I can't wait! I've been praying for some new EVA for years. I'd personally like to see more about Asuka and EVA 02.

All I ask for is that it won't try and melt my brain like the end of evangelion.

Aye. I'm agreeing God Module and Spoon here. Asuka was great and pretty, would be good to see more of her.
End Of Evangelion hurt my brain too. Here's hoping for something a little more simple.

I also wondered why he was there. Mistake, or hinting that maybe he was always around? Hmmmmmmm......

I've been following the news that Newtype USA has been putting out, as well as whatever I can glean from various online sources, since they were announced.

Personally, I'm rather psyched. Though I only got into EVA recently through friends (and, like far too many people I know, ended up seeing End of Evangelion before the rest of the series), after having collected 5/7th's of the platinum edition I can safely say it has become one of my favourite all-around serieses. Period.

I know a few people who feel a sequal will ruin the franchise at this point. Frankly, I can't see that happening. Besides, an official GAINAX animated film has to be better than that live-action one that's been in development hell forever....right?

I felt the series was ok, not as good as some of gainax's other stuff like Gunbuster, hopefully the new series will deal with the Iron Maiden Storyline or one of the other Games where we actually get to see eva 05 or even 06 (green one only appeared in videogame for genesis)

If anyone hasn't seen, HobbyLink Japan has pictures of some of the new Eva merchandise for the new movie, including HCM Pro figures of EVA-01 and 00. Check their galleries for the current hobby show for details.

I cannot wait either, they can't get out soon enough, Eva is still one of my favorite series.

Heck Eva's and TF's are my two main collectables.

Shinji still looks miserable and Rei still looks as if she's in a coma.

How different is this 'retelling' actually going to be?

We'll find out on September 1st.

Has anyone seen the new Revoltech Evangelion Unit 01?

The heavy armor one? Yeah, it's pretty cool. I'm holding out for a Revoltech of the new movie Eva-01 though.

Ditto. The HA one just looks really unappealing.

It's coming, it's not much different though. Just some green in place or purple from what I could see.
