Creation
The nine Mass Production Model Evangelions, Eva Unit-05 through Unit-13, were manufactured by Seele at seven different facilities throughout the globe. The specifics of their creation are unknown, but presumably they were, like prior Evas, made from Adam's genetic material.
Purpose
The MP Evangelions were deployed as part of Seele's assault on the Nerv Geofront, but primarily to be utilized as part of Third Impact in conjunction with Evangelion Unit-01.
Abilities
In addition to incredible size and strength, the MP Evangelions had large, mechanical wings attached to their backs, allowing them to fly. They were also given individual S² Engines, removing the need for umbilical cables or batteries. Because they carry no real living pilots, they can sustain what would normally be considered fatal damage in previous Eva models, but still keep fighting. This is because there is no living pilot synchronized with the Evas; in previous Eva models, the Eva would have to be shut down if the pilot sustained critical injuries, and presumably would stop functioning if the pilot died and could no longer control it.
They carried no armament except for replicas of the Spear of Longinus.
Notes
- Several continuity errors in the animation of the Mass Production Evas in The End of Evangelion has led to some confusion: in several cuts, the MP Evas appear to have restored their severed limbs and regenerated their injuries. However, later cuts after these clearly show that they retain the damage sustained at the hands of Eva Unit 02 through the end of the film (indeed, in a bit of morbid humor, one MP Eva whose head was impaled by spikes fired from Unit 02 retains the spikes impaled in its head through all subsequent appearances).
- A popular and fairly wide-spread fan-nickname for the Mass Production model Evangelions is "harpies".
This article bears the unpleasant designation of "Stub." This is a Bad Thing. Provide a great service to NGE fan-geeks everywhere by making it awesomer!
