Ten oil lighters printed with the pilots and characters of Evangelion, set in a black presentation case with a clear lid and chrome catches. Never used.
The Piece
Evangelion, created by Hideaki Anno and given new life in the Rebuild of Evangelion films from 2007, has inspired some of the most elaborate collector merchandise in anime. This case brings together ten full-colour oil lighters, each printed edge to edge with a different portrait.
Rei Ayanami appears in her school uniform and in her white plugsuit; Asuka in uniform, in her red plugsuit and in summer clothes with Pen Pen; Mari Illustrious Makinami in her pink plugsuit and in casual dress; and Kaworu Nagisa reclines in white shirt and black trousers. Each lighter carries the Evangelion title on the lid, against bright hexagon and light-burst backgrounds. The lighters sit in two rows of five in a fitted black tray under a clear window, and the case closes with two chrome latches.
Complete cased sets such as this are made for display rather than use, and an unused example with all ten lighters is the most desirable form.
