Evangelion

Rivals Corner's Evangelion range covers three ways to build an Eva Unit: Blokees snap-together figures, Real Grade inner-frame Gunpla kits, and HG builds from the Rebuild of Evangelion films. Eva Unit 00, 01, 02 and Mark.06 all feature across the collection, spanning both the original Neon Genesis Evangelion series and the Rebuild film tetralogy. Free tracked UK shipping applies on orders over £99.

Eva Units, Three Ways to Build Them

"Blokees Evangelion" pulls more UK search volume than almost anything else in this collection, more, even, than the classic "eva unit 01" searches most competitors fight over. That's not the story anyone expected going in. Rivals Corner's Evangelion range spans that same Blokees snap-together line alongside Real Grade inner-frame Gunpla kits and HG builds from the Rebuild of Evangelion films. Three build styles, one franchise, one shelf.

Blokees snaps together without glue, block-style, closer to a poseable figure than a traditional model kit. Real Grade goes the other way entirely, full inner frame, HG Rebuild versions land somewhere in between, detailed enough to satisfy Gunpla habits without RG's part count. Pick based on how much building you actually want to do, not just which Eva Unit you like.

Which build's worth getting? Blokees Evangelion Action Edition (Test Type-01) brings EVA-01 to the snap-fit format, the single most-searched Eva product in this whole collection. RG Evangelion Production Model-01 reworks the same unit at 1/144 with genuine inner-frame engineering, the harder, more rewarding build. EVA-01 Rebuild of Evangelion HA Ver HG sits at the accessible middle ground. Evangelion Wiki notes Bandai's Perfect Grade Eva kit specifically warns off beginners due to rubber-part installation and sheer size, worth knowing before committing to the hardest version of this build.

Building Gunpla too? Real Grade [RG] and High Grade [HG] cover the wider Gundam side of these same grades. Curious about the Blokees line more broadly? Blokees has the non-Eva side of that collection too.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best Evangelion model kit?

It depends what you're after. For pure detail and poseability, Real Grade Evangelion Production Model-01 leads the range. For a faster, simpler build, EVA-01 Rebuild of Evangelion HA Ver HG does the job well. For something closer to a display figure than a traditional kit, Blokees Evangelion Action Edition (Test Type-01) is the easiest starting point of the three.

Are Evangelion model kits hard to build?

Depends which one. Bandai's Perfect Grade Eva kits are genuinely difficult, rubber parts, minimal colour separation, and sheer size push them toward experienced builders only. HG and RG kits are far more approachable, closer to a standard Gunpla build. Blokees kits need no glue at all, snap-fit block assembly, the easiest entry point of the three.

Is EVA-00 yellow or blue?

Both, depending on the version. The original TV series design uses a blue-and-orange scheme, while later Rebuild film versions shift EVA-00 toward an orange-and-blue variant with different proportions. Check the specific kit's box art if you want an exact colour match.

Where can I buy Evangelion model kits in the UK?

Rivals Corner stocks the range across Blokees, Real Grade and HG lines, though everything is currently sold out (see the note at the top of this page). UK stockists more broadly include the usual Gunpla-adjacent retailers, worth checking back here directly for restock rather than assuming permanent unavailability.

What's the difference between Neon Genesis Evangelion and Rebuild of Evangelion kits?

Neon Genesis Evangelion is the original 1995-96 TV series, while Rebuild of Evangelion is a later film tetralogy retelling the story with redesigned mechs. Kits labelled "New Movie Ver" or "Rebuild" reflect the film designs, generally sleeker and more detailed than the original TV-accurate versions.
