Synthesized from 8 Yomimono stories · updated Aug 28

Evangelion Unit-01 merchandise dominates recent Yomimono coverage, with multiple companies releasing figures and model kits across different scales and price points. The most recent announcement is Good Smile Company's MODEROID DX-SCALE kit, standing 260mm tall, featuring movable joints, molded colors, clear parts, pre-painted parts, and decals, with some armor reacting to blacklight. A LUMINOUS SET EDITION, exclusive to the Good Smile Company official shop, adds a glowing head and two blacklight stands. Both release in June 2027.

Other Good Smile releases include the Robodo series awakened form figure, which uses a die-cast frame with roughly 48 articulation points, UV fluorescent paint, and an LED eye function, and six new Brickroid figures from the Rebuild films, including Unit-01 Awakened Ver., Unit-00, Unit-02 Beast Mode Second Stage, Mark.06, the Fourth Angel, and the Tenth Angel. The Brickroid figures release in December 2026, with a Building A + Base Set in November 2026.

Blitzway opened pre-orders for the CARBOTIX Unit-01 die-cast action figure in June 2026, with standard and DX versions (the latter with a hangar diorama), both shipping in December 2026. Medicom Toy re-released the MAFEX Unit-01 figure from Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 at a revised price of 14,850 yen, and also announced a chrome repaint BE@RBRICK set featuring Unit-01 and Unit-13, both for September 2026. The coverage shows a sustained market for Evangelion Unit-01 merchandise across multiple product lines.
