Revoltech No.009 EVA-03 Production Model

I have been faithfully working towards building up my Revoltech collection, and have given the earlier (actually later model) Revoltech No.027 EVA-02 (1997 Movie Version) a well-deserving gallery. Now, I will try to clear the remainder seven Revoltech EVA units by presenting to you Revoltech No.009 EVA-03 Production Model. Like the earlier EVA-01, The articulation of the earlier EVA units are not as great compared to the newer EVA-02 (1997 Movie Ver.). However, the earlier EVA units did come with more accessories to play with. The EVA-03 comes with a huge cannon, MP5-styled SMG, Tonfa (tuifa), clear full-sized shield, power cable, spare head with opened jaw, eight hands and core body. Shooting the EVA-03 was rather tricky, like Revoltech No.020 Griffon see gallery, due to the high gloss finish on a black body.

Production Model

Built in the United States by NERV Second Branch in Massachusetts, USA, Evangelion Unit 03 is one of two Units built with the Second Production Model design. It is the sister Unit of Unit 04. The United States' government insisted on having the rights to build Unit 03 and Unit 04. A few minor changes were made between the first and second Production Models. Unit 03's color was unique, with much darker plates than any other Eva. The head was oddly shaped, too, with a rounded top and exaggerated chin. The pilot assigned to it was Toji Suzuhara, but in transit to Japan, it was possessed by the thirteenth Angel, Bardiel, which appeared as a cloud. As Bardiel, it was savagely torn apart by Unit 01, after the control of Unit 01 was switched from Shinji to the Dummy Plug system, designed to simulate Rei Ayanami as the pilot. Toji, the pilot, is severely injured in the anime, but in the manga he actually dies.

"LET'S PLAY" Biopolis Playground

I was really early, so I decided to snap a few pictures of the new playground located behind Chromos, at Biopolis, Singapore. This is also the starting point of my 10km regime later today. Here is a preview, I will only be able to upload the rest later tonight. So be sure to check back here!!

Guess what this picture is about? Those with orrect answers get a bonus Super Wedgie from me!

I call this the "Ball-Joints of Steel"! I wonder if this has any relation to BanYJ, the brainchild behind Stikfas.

GALLERY UPDATED

The complete gallery of the new playground at Biopolis, located behind Chromos building and at the foot of the ONE-NORTH park, where NTU-ALUMNI CLUB resides. I might incidently be the first to cover this playground, since its opening last week. Hardly anyone notice this playground and bother to snap pictures OF a playground.

The two "Clamshell" discs are actually part of the teleportation silo. I believe standing between the discs and chanting, "My name is Dick", one can teleport to the realm of the unbearable lightness of being.

Those who have guessed correctly, gets a "Super Wedgie"! The beads are actually plugs in-between the suspending chain, to prevent stoopid kids who finger around too much.
A trapped soul in the steel bracket.

A "twin-bed"? A little early to educated the young on sex and making out in the playground eh?

Once the teleportation starts to take place, the whell will turn at the speed of light.
One can speak into the holes to communicate with TheMaker.

TheMaker will be able to hear and reply on the red end. There are four such telecommunication portals surrounding a mirror table (as shown in the middle).
Juvenile Spiderboys are welcomed.
