We've seen an Asuka and Godzilla mash-up, Unit-01-colored Godzillas and a Godzilla-colored Unit-01. The crossover between Hideaki Anno's Godzilla film and his Eva franchise keeps spiraling out to the point where it practically has its own in-universe logic. This includes NERV's Anti-Godzilla Division.

The UN-backed organization is getting a new weapon to fight Tokyo's original monster menace, designed by Metal Gear alumni Yoji Shinkawa. The tentatively-titled "NERV-made Anti-G Weapon" appears to be the crossover's response to Evangelion's mass production units.
The design was first shown at WonderFest last month and its now getting a pre-painted action figure by Sen-Ti-Nel. Release details and a price point are still unknown.
