Birthday of Ayanami: Real Action Heroes

Ayanami Rei, real action hero? Kinda... but this is Medicom's Real Action Heroes series featuring Ayanami Rei, Bandage Version. I was going to put this in the previous figure post, but I had so many pictures already, so I figured giving this one a separate post would be nice. Plus I added some extra bonuses for this post :)
This is part 3 of my Birthday of Ayanami series of posts on March 30th. Rei's birthday is actually based on Megumi Hayashibara's birthday, her voice actress. Megumi is also my favourite voice actress.

The opportunity to own this Rei came unexpectedly when I came to work one morning. HLJ was having their spring sale. This Rei was staring at my face at 50% off! I was considering whether to get this one or a resin figure that was paired with Asuka. In the end, this was much cheaper than that one ^^;

I thought this was going to be the bigger box, but the Uplark was actually bigger... even though the Rei inside is really, really tiny.

Here's the full pose. She also comes with a stand, which I haven't opened yet. I've been playing around with her already so there are some wrinkles in the plugsuit already...  Can I consider her as "my daughter"? It's not really a Dollfie though ^^;

The bandage around her chest is real cloth. Pretty cool.

The bandage on her head (and arms) aren't... Still ok though ^^

Even injured, Rei can strike a pose!

Showing the back angle... And no, I didn't purposely pose her in a provocative position... I have no idea what you're talking about...

Close-up on the bottom of her foot.

Close up of her cast. You could barely move this arm. I couldn't rotate the upper arm. I'm afraid of breaking it.

The bandages on her other arm.

Here she is holding the Kaiyodo figure from my previous post. No, I didn't purposely positioned the static figure's hand on the boobs... Seriously!

And here she is holding her bandaged sisters... Revoltech Rei, bandage version and the Kaiyodo mini figure.

Add another sister to the photo shoot. Great balancing act! She's a REAL Action Hero!

A great family shot!
