Evangelion Unit-01

Evangelion Unit-01 is a biomechanical construct from Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Wait, which robot is Shinji supposed to get into?

Evangelion Unit-01 (エヴァンゲリオン初号機 Evangerion Shogōki), shortened to EVA-01, is a giant "mecha" employed by Nerv to defend Tokyo-3 from Angels.

Fiction

Transformers × Evangelion

Just another day in Tokyo-3

Eva-01 was deployed by Misato Katsuragi in response to the battle between Optimus Prime's Autobots and "Angel"-scream. Mode "Eva" chapter 2 When Prime met the Evangelion, he recognized it as a living being rather than a robot, sensing it to be emitting a "primeval call". He proceeded to scan it, adopting its great size and color scheme in the continued fight against "Angel"-scream. Mode "Eva" chapter 3 During their battle, Optimus Prime used his body to shield the seemingly prone Eva-01 from Starscream's energy blasts. Mode "Eva" chapter 4

  • ID Number: QTC-07

Evangelion Unit-01 Awakened Ver. is a redeco of the previous figure in the colors of its "awakened" state featured in Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance. Its left arm is painted beige to resemble the regenerated energy arm seen in the film, and the stickers on the back of its arms depict an Absolute Terror Field.

Notes

• Unit-01's pilot, Shinji Ikari, goes unmentioned in the Transformers × Evangelion story, although it's safe to assume he's piloting it.
• A dead ringer for Unit-01 is hanging out with the Decepticons in "Rage, Rage".
