I always enjoy discovering the latest bizarre Evangelion marketing stunt.

Why are they doing this? From what I remember of "Evangelion,"it wasn't exactly a kid friendly show. I could understand if it was "Sesame Street" or the old "Romper Room" show,but this? My brain is wondering why they're selling this to youngsters. It just doesn't add up.

^ They're not quite selling this to toddlers; They don't have the money to buy these items.

They're selling this to their otaku parent(s) who have extra money to spend on their little ones and this is how they choose to spend it. Most parents wouldn't spend $40 on something that will experience most toddler body fluids within a couple wears.
