YES! The image of the plate has been circling the internet for about a year, glad to see it's not some weird fake or whatnot.

Totally going to this and buying the plate if they have it for sale.

It would be very strange feeling to eat off that plate, but hilarious at the same time.

OK, this is just getting ridiculous. At least it wasn't spaghetti and pasta sauce on the plate.

Speculation on the next Evangelion tie-in product?

Might not be spaghetti and pasta sauce but it looks like a heart or some other organ.
I wouldn't eat from that plate, I mean Lilith has her arms opened like saying "Come with me...I'll kill you"

I totally agree. <shudder>

But the spear looks very cool. Be perfect if it could be used for the Olympics. Only in Japan could they pull something odd off like that.

Wow, you can eat food off the Lilith plate. I bet when you eat something with meat in it, you're consuming Lilith. Laughing

You know, This gave me an idea for a photoshop of the Lilith plate looking like an actual human body getting eaten by a giant. The plate will have to be recolored "caucasion" and a human face will have to be added onto Lilith, and a hand must be seen using that utensil next to the plate.

BTW, the spear is awesome. It's just plain awesome.

That is awesome, and yet rather disturbing. I would love the spear for my weapons collection though.

That lance would look amazing in my bathroom. It would be a great center point to really draw your eyes as your on the toilet.

I would do anything to get my hands on that pear. I would sell my soul a million times over.

it'd be too creepy to eat off that plate. spoiler[Doesn't mean I wouldn't put it out for my friend though and watch him have a nervous breakdown as he stares at it on the table, while the world ends around him.]

I wish more companies would do stuff like this. Replicas of in anime/in game items that are official could bring in a decent bit of cash. (I know I'd rob a bank to buy a real version of certain art works from video games.)

If you can't get people to buy DVDs, get them to buy really expensive merchandise!

Why?

It's made of 28 kilo's of steel! TWENTY EIGHT!

Thats not a weapon it is a shaped hunk of metal...what kind of collection do you have? For mine I aim for accurate replicas/antique medieval/renaissance so something of such impractical weight would never fit...
