The CGI Sōryū Asuka Langley figure: So Expensive!

When I saw this rendition of Sōryū Asuka Langley in CGI mode, I wondered myself…Why the financial crisis is happening now?? Now I know why Japanese companies dont want an stronger Yen…Goods gets more expensive…Well, actually, I knew that but it seems this figure follows the Yen trend and it is making me having second thoughts about buying her.

She looks really cool, but I wonder what hard core Asuka and Evangelion fans may think about her? The face, the plug suit, the hair…It is not the Asuka we know, but still looks sexy enough. Please feel free to comment about this figure…What do you think?….

Wait a minute…I thought MISATO is the one that carries the gun, not you!!

I am really curious about her clothes…castoff, anyone? Oops, I forgot to tell something….The price!

Finally, let`s talk about the price…USD $200.00 dollars…I could buy several things with that kind of money…It is not the first time that I spent that amount of money on a figure but time changes…Check more photos here and if you want to get her, you can visit Hobby Search or HLJ…Again, for USD$200.00 dollars!!

    i actually think she looks really bad and isn’t worth the money, the face is off, the body proportions are very off and the clothing looks very bulky. not worth it at all

    That`s why I stated about that, it is not the same Asuka We know…She seems interesting, but I dont think it is worth the price…

    She doesn’t really look like Asuka, more like a doll cosplaying as Asuka. She looks a little too old and stocky. Interesting concept though

    Well… I thinks she’s pretty…
    Of course she is not a little like The Asuka we know but, this is the alternative way of her middle age… about 25’s to 20’s and the City’s Defensor!
    I like it…
    It’s just that i don’t have enought money to buy her.
