I definitely liked Asuka better as a redhead. Also, what's up with the footwear? I was expecting high heeled boots, not hooker heels. I can't really picture this Asuka howling shrilly and kicking the crap out of Shinji.
(Incidentally, my Evo 4G's ShapeWriter keyboard knows Asuka and Shinji and Evangelion without having to be trained for those words... Somebody must be a fan...)
the eyes on the figure make her look a little bit older than she does on the illustration along with the slightly different postion of her hand and torso...
Most NGE hentais and figures I see, the characters are well above 14. They look better anyway, big chests more curves, you know what real men like to look at ;)
It's the artist's style. Shunya Yamashita has similar facial styles on all his characters. Realistically his style's a level of detail above traditional anime, so it makes sense, but he doesn't seem adaptable to shifting his style to emulate others. But that is rather tough to do. It's also a mark of a recognizable style as many artists in comic industries try to do. Artist followings are almost as prevalent as character followings, so the combo of the two can often cause a frenzy... like it is for me, dammit, I love his work!
Big fan of Shunya I preordered her the first day.

I Can (not) Refuse to Buy :D
i don't get what's with these revisions of the plug suit. like a skin tight semi transparent body suit on semi-lolis isn't hot enough.
looks like more mature. do want!
very nice! i want this :D
Now, just need an epic Mari to go with the Asuka and Rei.
i second that.
Ok this one is not bad, i still think the Rei version is a lil disappointing
when I saw the Rei one I was pretty impressed but knew Asuka would come someday. And now here she is, way hotter than Rei. DAMMIT more figs to buy
oddly his rei look horrible to me but his asuka is beautiful.
maybe because rei is my daughter.
asuka is 14 this looks 26
DAT Asuka....

am I the only one that feels that the face didn't match the artworks ?
I Can (Not) Afford One....
:(
You are (not) alone..... : )
lol, wtf is wrong with you people ? :)
Remnants of the Financial Crisis, I guess?
Remnants of the Financial Crisis, I guess??
nice armpit
3D pig disgusting
i love that line, it's a great way to know if someone is ugly and insecure; they say it.
wow sugoi :)
Ohh Asuka, your such a tease.
DAT ASS
Sorry, Rei's ass is unbeatable; though i do like Asuka's slender figure.
Rei has an ass? Since when?
the eyes on the figure make her look a little bit older than she does on the illustration along with the slightly different postion of her hand and torso...
but otherwise it's awesome
DO WANT!!
Oh great...Just busted my own money by buying the Queen’s Blade Tarnyan Figure featured at the older forums...
Sucks to be you, ehehe...
Oh no, Sankaku, no... Stop mesmerizing me with such piece of art... my wallet is so thin these days ^^;
The face and body don't look like Asuka...
It's good but don't you think it's a little to tall.
Tall, definately. 14 years old she's not! lol!
Since it's an alternate look, we could assume this version of Asuka Langley has an alternate age to go with it as well.
indeed. totally the figure for me ^^

Real men don't want 3D, and curves are the depiction of 3D. 2D is flat, long live 2D!!!
not curvy enough or voluptuous enough
NOT 14? Then this is no longer proper fapping material
Something is wrong with the face...
Yeah, the face looks far too westernised.
Also, the skin showing makes it look pretty slutty. Like Asuka would ever actually look like that. Fail figure.
Agree. The body is excellent by the face is a bit realistic, would have preferred the face from some of the other models.
"Yeah, the face looks far too westernised."
Guess the whole being part german might have something to do with that eh ;)
Question: Does she look like Asuka from the anime?
Answer: No, she doesn't, IMO.
Oh, and she looks way too mellow for our Asuka. :P
The face is a bit generic, but the rest is absolutely spectacular.
I don't mean generic I mean it just doesn't have the same likeness as the anime.
I meant the same thing. It seems like they used a generic standard face instead of doing it right.
"...instead of doing it right."
Really, when they will learn that the face is most important and they should put the most effort in it...
