Evangelion Gets the Ultimate ’90s Spin-Off in New Limited-Edition Release

by

This anime was a massive hit in its time and remains one of the most famous mecha series ever made, originally gaining popularity in the 1990s. Around the same time, a separate, more child-focused anime began its run, and now, after many years, these two very different franchises are collaborating.

The new BEYBLADE X CX-00 Evangelion Deck Set brings together the worlds of Evangelion and Beyblade. It features updated Beyblade tops designed with the iconic EVA units’ colors. A special video highlights this surprising and unique collaboration.

Evangelion x Beyblade Toy Collection Is Set to ‘Let It Rip’ With New International Release

Takara Tomy’s new Beyblade set combines the excitement of Beyblade spinning tops with the iconic robots from the series. The set features tops modeled after the three main robots, and the packaging reflects this design.

I’m so excited about these new Eva Beyblades! They’ve released three awesome metal coat versions: the Violet Unit-01, the Orange Unit-00, and a Red Unit-2. The box art even features Shinji and Asuka, which is a fantastic touch! Each one has a different battling style – Unit-01 is all about powerful attacks, Unit-00 is built for defense, and the Red Unit-2 is super versatile and can do both! They’re using the latest Beyblade X technology, so these tops are seriously fast and really grip the stadium rails. It’s a game changer!

Even the launchers for the Beyblades have been customized with imagery from Evangelion, including the logo of the NERV organization. A promotional video calls this collaboration the “Spinning Top Instrumentality Project,” highlighting the strong connection between the two brands. Players will need to use their existing Beyblade X stadium, as a special stadium designed for this set hasn’t been announced yet.

I noticed that fans of both Evangelion and Beyblade are in for a treat! They’re now offering a special set that combines both franchises – the BEYBLADE X CX-00 Evangelion Deck Set. You can order it online through the official website, and they ship internationally using Buyee. It costs 7,500 yen, which is about US$48, and they’re expecting to ship it out to collectors around the world in late August. Pre-orders are open now!
