Update: September 11, 2007
«©NCSX» Over the past decade or so, the regularity of Evangelion merchandise was something that we took for granted. Every month or so, toys, towels, bedsheets, matryoshka dolls, and other miscellany would reach the market and fans would eat it all up. A new Evangelion movie bowed in Japan this summer and it's only fitting that another flood of merchandise reach market henceforth. Japanese manufacturer Plex starts things off with officially licensed hats that are based on three Angels from the Evangelion mythos. The Third Angel named Sachiel faced off against Shinji but eventually self-destructed. The Sachiel hat features the doleful image of the Angel dead-center and two appendages on the side that look like Sachiel's shoulders. The fabric that drops from the sides is meant to represent its droopy arms. On the lower left of the product photo above, we have the Zeruel Hat which is based on the Fourteenth Angel. The skull face is there along with its beam-weapon port which packs a wallop. Looking towards the lower right, the orange-colored Sahaquiel hat represents the Tenth Angel. Sahaquiel has three eyes in the animation series and three on its hat persona for a perfect match against its animated counterpart. View larger photos for this item on the main NCSX website.
