Why would anybody make a "smiling version" of Rei?

Never been into Rei so I feel nothing toward that figure.

Except that one is based on a Rei Clone that likely is closer to chronologically Four years old.

It's refreshing to see Rei smile every now and then. Smile

Both are incredibly attractive, but this is not at all Rei from Evangelion to me. It's someone else entirely.

Without talking about the underwears, the figure - the face in particular - doesn't look like the character at all.

Of course, it is well sculptured

C'mon, Japan. Rei is supposed to be 14 years old.

Why did I even click on an article with Rei and sexy in the title?

The line must be drawn here!

It still doesn't feel good to start thinking about how sexy a fictional 14 year old would look as an advanced-age clone in revealing clothing.

Does it matter? It's a fictional character...

About the figure itself, I can't associate that face with Rei no matter how hard I try...

Rei was 14 a bit over twenty years ago. There have been multiple variations on the franchise. Is it that hard to imagine a timeline where Rei lived to grow up?

From the same artist:

This does not work for me.
I think that Rei looks much sexier in her plug suit, with her emotionless expression, from the TV series. I have a few figures like that and those are all that I need for now.
