Bored of the USB stick that you carry around (do you?) If so then this Rei 4GB stick by Buffalo may interest you - available from Geek Stuff 4U for 57 USD.

More pics at Akihabara News.

      Wait, are they actually selling those? I only found a pic of it on 4chan but looks great! (love that metallic shine on Suzaku's USB stick)

    Looks like Lego Rei with a USB slot to connect her to her Eva. Kind of like Sky Girls' tail I guess?

    I think you'd be better off buying a Nendoroid puchi and attach a usb stick somehow. Way cheaper, and way cooler ^^;

    Actually, a Yuki Nagato reading from Series 2 would be perfect as the stick could be glued in place of her chair. Now where do I get another Yuki reading on her chair........

    Oh, I saw that times ago, and the unboxing yesterday at AkibaNewsBlog..
    Unfortunately, kinda expensive.

    And ain't that a Kubrick (or some other of those collectible expensive toys) series rip-off?

    But anyways, if I had the money and if it had more space (4Gb is outdate already), I'd get it.
