Evangelion Shin Gekijouban - Makinami Mari Illustrious (Flare)Makinami Mari Illustrious · Flare

Flare presents Makinami Mari Illustrious from the Rebuild of Evangelion film series, sculpted by Yamashita Shunya and Yoshizawa Mitsumasa. This figure captures the cheerful and confident Eva pilot in a dynamic pose. Mari Illustrious is a character introduced in the Rebuild of Evangelion film series, bringing a distinctly different energy compared to the other pilots. While the original series focused on Shinji, Asuka, and Rei, the Rebuild films expanded the roster with Mari as an additional Evangelion pilot. The Rebuild series retells the events of the original with different plot elements and a new ending, released between 2007 and 2021. Mari's confident and enthusiastic approach to piloting contrasts with the psychological struggles that define the other pilots, who each carry deep trauma and difficulty relating to others. Standing at 385mm tall, this ABS and PVC figure showcases the collaborative artistry of illustrator Yamashita Shunya and sculptor Yoshizawa Mitsumasa, bringing Mari's distinctive design and personality to life with impressive detail and presence.
