This one isn't all that bad (decent balance between budget and quality): https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/76199 Only issue is that the legs are kinda weak, so you need the stand in order to ensure that it won't fall. It's also the Rebuild version so there's a bit more green in the design.
Other than that, most Eva collectors/Figure buyers that want high quality figures seem to love Soul of Chogokin's Eva Unit 01: https://www.amazon.com/Soul-Chogokin-EVA-01-Rebuild-Evangelion/dp/B000QUEHTE . They have both the normal Unit 01, and the 400% sync rate version (when it goes berserk in Episode 19). Soul of Chogokin has made pretty much the entire OG line-up of Evas, but since they're from the late 2000s, they can fetch anywhere from $75 to $200.
From what I've seen, the model kits are cheaper, I was considering the Soul of Chogokin figure, but it was about 130 bucks, but it was discontinued.
most of the model kits I've looked at are much cheaper and provide more detail. The Soul of Chogokin XS-01 was the only figure I found that was based on the TV series. Soul of Chogokin does make good eva figures if you're not willing to build model kits, including rebuilds I believe. The total cost for me, including the figure and all the supplies I needed it to make it how I wanted cost around 140 dollars. so if you want to just have one figure, I'd say get a good figure if you can, if you want a plethora of evas sitting on a shelf, I would say get model kits, compared to figures they'll usually be cheaper in the long run. Keep in mind I've only built one kit, and have done a skeletal level of research on the information I shared here, I'm not an expert by any means, I'd recommend doing some research yourself to come to a conclusion.
TL;DR
Model kits in bulk, figures if only 1, but it comes down to whether or not you want to put in the work to build the kit or not.
