About That 1:1 Scale Life-Sized EVA-01 Unit (Neon Genesis Evangelion) @ Fuji-Q High Land

Following the giant-robot footsteps of the Gundam in Odaiba, and Tetsujin-28 in Kobe, another anime + manga robot will be made life-sized (or at least the "head"), with the announcement of a EVA-01 Unit (from the "Neon Genesis Evangelion" series). The construct will be part of a new pavilion at the Fuji-Q High Land amusement park, dubbed "Evangelion: World - Life-Size EVA-01 Construction Project", with a planned launch on July 23rd 2010.

"The pavilion will house the world's first life-size recreation of the scene where the Evangelion anime's main character Shinji Ikari encounters the Eva-01 unit for the first time. The recreation will have a mockup of the Evangelion unit from the bust up.

The pavilion will also have a life-size cockpit of an Evangelion unit (from where visitors can pay to have their photos taken), a life-size figure of the character Kaworu Nagisa, a video corner, a museum, a studio gallery for taking photographs, and a shop." ~ reports AnimeNewsNetwork (Source).

I wonder (for the photo-taking) if there would be an actual human-sized "plug-suits" available to rent / wear? Or that it would be cool for Cosplayers to turn up in the appropriate Evangelion-gear to get pics taken for free? Heh.
