Get ready for the return of the iconic Rei Ayanami Plamax models from Evangelion, featuring both short and long hair options!
Introduction to the Plamax Models
Good Smile Company is back at it again, reopening orders for two fabulous Plamax models of the beloved character, Rei Ayanami, from the Rebuild of Evangelion movies. These models are identical to the previous release, giving fans a chance to build their very own version of this iconic heroine. One of the models showcases Rei with her classic short hair, while the other features her longer locks. Both kits are priced at $52 and are expected to ship in Japan by October 2025, with a worldwide release following shortly thereafter. Mark your calendars if you missed the first run, which shipped earlier in April 2024!
Details About the Models
Each model showcases Rei in her signature white plugsuit, with the only distinction being the length of her hair. The runners come pre-colored, so you won’t need to worry about extensive painting. However, for those who appreciate the finer details, a little touch-up might be needed. Good Smile Company assures us that these kits are suitable for all skill levels and should snap together with ease. A bit of advice? Grab some nippers for those tiny pieces and keep some glue handy—just in case!
Visual Highlights
Good Smile Company has shared some stunning images of the finished kits. Both models will stand under eight inches (200mm) tall when completed and come with a stand included.
Runner Components
Good Smile Company has also revealed images of some runner components that come with the kits.
Exclusive Purchase Bonuses
As if that weren't enough, both models also come with an exclusive purchase bonus from the Good Smile Company Online Store. Each kit will feature an additional runner that includes an extra hair part. These are alternate translucent versions of Rei's hair, allowing for even more customization!
Here's a glimpse of these bonus parts:
