You can now buy Misato’s shoulder holster.

In the past I’ve complained about some of the unnecessary Evangelion merchandise that has been made in relation to Evangelion. I’ve joked that they scraped the barrel and then sold that too. But, every so often, they get it right and make something that hardcore nerds actually want. In collaboration with Evangelion character designer and manga-ka Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, they are producing a shoulder holster that can hold a real gun (or airsoft) or can be reconfigured to just hold a cell-phone. In the anime, you didn’t get much detail of it, however in the manga, Sadamoto illustrated it in full, so they’re basing it around that. It’s selling for 52,500 yen, which isn’t cheap, but it’s what you would expect from a mostly hand-made specialty item. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I think this is pretty rad.
