Halidom’s note
Test Type-01 (Concept by Josh Nizzi) is Prime 1 Studio’s 1/1 life-size bust under the Evangelion licence. It stands 86 cm tall including the base, which means it is furniture rather than a cabinet piece: it needs a solid surface, a plinth or the floor, and a clear route in from the front door. Our scale guide has the cabinet measurements.
Our allocation of this piece is currently spoken for. Join the waitlist and we will contact you in order if a reservation is released or another allocation becomes available. No payment is taken.
It is priced at £5,203.99. Joining the waitlist costs nothing and commits you to nothing; if a piece is offered to you, you decide then. Delivery to mainland UK is included and, because we import it, there is no duty or courier VAT bill at the door.
Prime 1 Studio, in Tokyo, works mostly at 1/4 and 1/3 in polystone, and its larger pieces are the heaviest things we sell — multi-box deliveries need two people on the day. This sculpt is offered in more than one edition; the comparison further down shows what each adds and what it costs.

Description
A silent ripple of L.C.L. A layered drama of humanity.
An artificial human awaits activation-captured in a life-size bust.
Known for his work on numerous films and games, mechanical concept artist Josh Nizzi brings new depth to iconic characters through the "Concept By Josh Nizzi" lineup. Now, Evangelion Unit-01 joins the series as a life-size bust.
Three years after the release of the diorama reimagining Unit-01's first battle, this piece emerges as a spin-off that inherits the same core design concept as the previously released "Fourth Angel." While the earlier work focused on "motion" and "what has happened," this bust expresses "stillness" and "what is about to happen." Depicted in restraint, Unit-01 awaits deployment-rendered with intricate and dynamic craftsmanship at an imposing height of 86cm, reminiscent of a human torso.
The commanding presence of Unit-01 and the surrounding human narratives are brought to life through meticulous sculpting and painting. From the multi-layered armor panels with varied sheens to the weathered textures and the organic gloss inside its open jaw, every detail enriches the upgraded scale with visual density. The shoulder pylons feature articulated mechanisms that allow for an open-and-close display, adding another layer of realism. Even the restraints and maintenance decks appear more worn than Unit-01 itself. Staff figures, stationed on two levels of the deck, each strike a pose that hints at their own story. At the base, gently rippling L.C.L silently evokes the world they inhabit.
The built-in LED effects breathe subtle life into the quiet Unit-01. Yellow lights glow from its eyes, cool white glimmers along its shoulders, and a red hue filtered through the L.C.L stirs the viewer's imagination.
Born of a cutting-edge design, this colossal bust captures a mythic moment between human and artificial being-now brought into your collection space.
Specifications:
- 2 x Shoulder Pylon Hatch Sets (Open, Closed)

Care
Polystone and resin are heavy and brittle rather than flexible. Dust with a soft dry brush or microfibre cloth, keep the piece out of direct sunlight to protect the paintwork, and never use solvents or household cleaners on painted surfaces. Lift it by the base, never by a limb, weapon or cape, and take off any separate parts before moving it.
Delivery
Delivery to mainland UK is included on every reservation, whatever the price of the piece: there is no delivery charge at checkout and nothing added when the balance is settled. Most pieces ship with UPS on a tracked, signed-for service, double-boxed in the studio's own shipper; the largest travel palletised or by two-person courier, with a delivery day arranged with you. Once the balance is settled, dispatch follows within a few working days and you will have the tracking number as soon as the label is printed. Or collect it free from the Loaded Dice shop at 28 Holton Road, Barry CF63 4HD: tell us when you reserve or before the balance is requested, and we will email you when it is ready. We do not currently deliver to Northern Ireland or outside the United Kingdom.

This piece is on a waitlist: our allocation is currently spoken for. Joining costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
