The Shin Seiki Evangelion EVA-03 Revoltech No. 009 figure is a compact, highly articulated representation of Unit-03. Built around Kaiyodo's Revoltech joint system, it offers a wide range of dynamic poses, with visible joints integrated into the armor for a convincing mecha silhouette. The sculpt emphasizes the angular lines of EVA-03's plating, featuring crisp panel details, clean seams, and a sturdy stance. The finish uses a matte color scheme with subtle shading to suggest battle wear, and the texture mimics the heavy-duty armor of the Evangelion. Included are interchangeable hands and optional accessories that expand display options, from combat-ready gestures to more expressive poses. The result is a display piece that balances realism, poseability, and the iconic look of Unit-03.

In Neon Genesis Evangelion, EVA-03 is the third prototype Evangelion unit created to counter the Angel threat. It is deployed during Nerv's early engagements, paired with a pilot to test combat coordination and the unit’s raw power. The battles surrounding EVA-03 demonstrate both the armor’s formidable resilience and the limits of the pilot–machine interface under stress. A dramatic turn reveals the tamperings and hidden agendas within Nerv and SEELE, as EVA-03’s actions threaten to destabilize their plans. The unit’s arc touches themes of control, identity, and the consequences of wielding weapons that are capable of altering humanity’s fate.
