Rebuild of Evangelion Shinji and Eva Unit-01 Nendoroids Teased

Good Smile Company is making more Evangelion Nendoroids, with new ones based on the Rebuild of Evangelion characters like Shinji Ikari and Eva Unit-01. There will also be a series of Nendoroid Surprise blind box figures based on the anime. No release window is available for any of them, due to how early in development the projects are. Everything came up during the company’s Nendoroid Funs 2025 Winter showcase.

Since both the Shinji and Eva Unit-01 figures are so early in development, there are no prototypes to show. The one for Shinji confirmed he’ll wear his plugsuit from the remakes, specifically from Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance. The Eva-01 Unit may be further along in development. This is because the announcement image for it actually featured concept art of the unit in the classic Nendoroid chibi style. 

The Nendoroid Surprise selection is too early for there to be anything to show. During the presentation, Good Smile Company only showed a teaser image of the Rebuild of Evangelion logo instead.

Here’s how the teaser images for the Evangelion Nendoroids look:

It’s only natural that we’re seeing the plugsuit version of Shinji. Good Smile Company already announced ones of Asuka Shikinami Langley and Rei Ayanami. Those are set to debut in July 2025. 

The Rebuild of Evangelion Shinji plugsuit and Eva Unit-01 Nendoroids, as well as a series of Nendoroid Surprise figures, are in development. The movies are available to stream via Amazon.
