A must-have for Anime collectors, toy hedz, & anyone who is looking to spice-up their displays.

Unlike most Anime figures, this female character is fully-clothed & in actual costume/dress from the popular series. What stands out most is her plug suit’s glowing-like properties. It’s white at first glance, but a closer look reveals perfectly placed blasted gloss. Her face & hair don’t take a back seat to this either. Adequate air-brushing to her hair enhances a look of innocence on her face.

The packaging is by far the most “display friendly” I’ve seen. Clear-cubed packaged with minimal graphics, centered, & posed. To make it even better, Rei’s also got a clear plastic shell around (but not touching) her more than “perfect” shape.

This figure will easily stand out from the rest of your collection & you will be very satisfied with your new addition.
