In continuing coverage of Revoltech’s Fraeulein series of bishoujo action figures, the maker’s official blog reported and online figure shop Digitamin confirms that the first item in the series lineup, Ayanami Rei of Evangelion, will be up for preorder on November 1st with release scheduled for January 1st, 2008. In anticipation of the release Digitamin has created a product entry complete with a full image gallery exhibiting Rei in many of the poses made possible by the figure; this initial offering in the lineup goes on sale at 2,000 yen, with subsequent figures (Fate’s Rin and Eva’s Asuka are confirmed) priced at 2,200 yen. While Revoltech figures are regularly reissued to meet demand, those interested getting in on this first batch of Rei are advised to get their preorders in early as she’s likely to be a very hot item. November 1st Update: as of 6:00 PM this evening she is now available for preorder around the internet. (no more)

very nice, think i’ll get this. always wanted a action figure, joint-type-ish…you know.
I guess I’ll get 2 of Rei and no Asuka.
Let’s us hope the QC is better this time around than Saber, who has some loose joints. I bought 5 pieces, and 4 out of 5 have a loose left arm. I have to use blu-tac to pose them. :(
I think I will just buy 1 piece of Rin first to complement my Sabers and Dark Sabers this time around.
Please do a good QC job, kaiyodo. :)
I’m really positively oriented to buying this – her joints are so well made to look much more like a realistic view. Will see about it…
