Dmetry Model Anya Sets 12 And 16 Aka Freastern Ella (8K)

Introduction: The Crossover Identity In the niche world of garage kits (GK) and resin figure collecting, certain pieces take on a second life through fan nicknames. The Dmetry Model Anya Sets 12 and 16 are a prime example. Officially produced by the Chinese studio Dmetry Model (known for stylized, often “thicc” or exaggerated feminine forms), these two figures are collectively nicknamed “Freastern Ella” by Western and Japanese collectors. The name “Freastern Ella” is a portmanteau of Freastern (a play on “Eastern European” or a fan-studio tag) and Ella (a common name for the character archetype). However, the figure is universally recognized as an original character (OC) design heavily inspired by Asuka Langley Soryu from Neon Genesis Evangelion —specifically her iconic yellow-orange plug suit. The key distinction between Set 12 and Set 16 lies in scale, pose, and base design .

Set 12: The Casual Dominance Pose

Scale: 1/6 (approx. 28-30 cm tall) Pose: Standing, arms crossed, hip-cocked to one side. Expression: Smug, confident smirk with direct eye contact. Base: Simple hexagonal or circular black mirror base with a single metal peg.

Design Highlights: Set 12 is the “simpler” of the two. It captures the character in a relaxed but authoritative stance. The plug suit is rendered in high-gloss resin to simulate the latex/spandex of Evangelion . Key details include: dmetry model anya sets 12 and 16 aka freastern ella

The iconic yellow body suit with black and red accent lines. A chest plate (less armored than Eva units, more like a sporty chest guard). Thigh-high boots with sculpted heel details. Long auburn hair with twin tails—classic Asuka silhouette.

Build Complexity (GK): This is a beginner-to-intermediate kit. Parts count is low: head + hair (two pieces), torso, two arms, two legs, and base. Seam lines run along the sides of the legs and arms. The major challenge is masking the yellow/black color separation on the suit.

Set 16: The Dynamic “Kick” Pose (The True “Freastern Ella”) Introduction: The Crossover Identity In the niche world

Scale: 1/7 (approx. 25-27 cm tall, but wider due to leg extension) Pose: One-legged standing kick (roundhouse or side kick), arms raised in a defensive/offensive posture. Expression: Open-mouthed battle cry or aggressive yell. Base: Complex diorama base – cracked concrete or hexagonal Eva launch pad imitation.

Design Highlights: Set 16 is the more dynamic and sought-after version. This is the figure most collectors refer to as “Freastern Ella.” The sculpt emphasizes motion:

The kicking leg is fully extended, with the toe pointed. The supporting leg is bent, with the heel lifted. The plug suit includes additional ribbing and panel lines around the abdomen and thighs, suggesting a “battle-damaged” or “upgraded” variant. Hair flows horizontally to convey momentum. Some releases of Set 16 include a swappable head (smug face vs. shouting face) and swappable hands (open palm vs. fist). The name “Freastern Ella” is a portmanteau of

Build Complexity (GK): Intermediate to advanced. The single-point contact (one foot on the base) makes pinning critical. Many builders reinforce the ankle with a brass rod. The hair assembly requires careful alignment to avoid gaps. The dynamic pose also means the center of gravity is off, so weighting the base is recommended.

“Freastern Ella” – The Nickname’s Origin The name “Freastern” is not an official studio. It emerged from early recast forums (e.g., E2046, GK-M) and image boards. It’s believed to be a corruption of:
