I know I skipped Tuesday Toyday yesterday, but hopefully this'll make up for it-- Japanator has spotted some super-illicit leaked images of a Revoltech figure of Evangelion's Unit 05, a brand-new EVA unit created for the new Evangelion movie reimagining.

It's hard to confirm for sure that this is the figure, but given the shadowy figure in the background of this post on the Revoltech Express blog, pictured above, it seems pretty likely to be correct. I left it as a thumbnail so that it'll be easier for anyone who doesn't want to be spoiled to skip over 'em...but the new unit looks pretty damn awesome, so if I were you I'd give in to the dark side and prepare to be assimilated. Rawr.

This looks pretty cool, and it seems like a natural branch of the typical Eva design. Still very organic looking. Here's hoping it looks awesome animated.

Looks like a Frankenstein Eva,almost as if NERV was only able to create  the torso but some thing happened like they ran out of money or resources  or something and had to finish it with robotic parts.

There's definitely a story behind 05's bizarre production and piloting configuration. Underfunding? Budget cutbacks?

I wonder who will be piloting this intriguing unit.
