First of all, the package design fully expresses the atmosphere of the game, with the “THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’98” logo placed on the front, conveying the dynamism of the characters. The sides and back feature cuts that highlight the fine details of the Mai Shiranui figure, building anticipation.

The back of the package features a shot of the figure from an appealing angle, which particularly shows the volume of the chest and the details of the costume. The design conveys the quality of the figure’s sculpt even before opening the package.

The dynamic pose of the figure stands out even when viewed from inside the blister pack. It is designed to convey the beauty of the sculpture even before taking it out, creating a sense of excitement when opening it.

Overall appeal of the figure

The figure’s pose is designed to give the impression of being in action, as if she could pounce at any moment. The flow of the fabric of her costume and the supple lines of her body are beautifully reproduced, allowing you to fully experience Mai Shiranui’s charm.

Detailed design

The most attractive feature of this figure is the shape of the chest, which faithfully reproduces the character’s identity and has a natural softness to it. The opening and creases in the outfit are also realistic, and the contrast between the texture of the skin and the texture of the outfit is excellent.

Chest and costume sculpting

Of particular note is the bold costume design that is characteristic of Mai, and the beauty of the sculpture that makes the most of it. The bold V-cut at the chest area beautifully expresses the texture and natural lines of the fabric. In addition, the figure is painted with a gradation that gives it a soft feel, highlighting the realistic three-dimensional effect.

In the side view, the smooth lines from the chest to the waist stand out beautifully.

The flowing hair and fluttering outfit are realistically recreated.
The beauty of her thighs matches the outfit perfectly.

Back design

The back view is also very attractive. The strings on her costume and the flowing shape of her skirt recreate the graceful movements of the dance.

Also, pay attention to the open back and the attention to detail in the hip line. The angles that look beautiful depending on the pose have been calculated, so you can enjoy it from any angle.

This Mai Shiranui figure is a must-have for fans of the KOF series. The high level of detail in her costume and pose, as well as her exquisite sexiness, bring out her charm to the fullest. Not only can this figure be displayed as part of a collection, but it can also be enjoyed from a variety of angles.
A fitting piece for the popular heroine Mai Shiranui.
