When I heard about the negative buzz about KoF 13, I was willing to forgive the bugs and glitches. That, along with the fact that I didn’t have a video game console until my college years meant that I never had a chance to spend any quality time with Mai.
Unfortunately, I spent all my money on DDR when the local movie arcade still had life in it. As such, Mai has always been my chief reason of interest for the KOF series. I think I’ve mentionied before that my enjoyment of a fighting game rests solely on the presentation of the female cast. Seriously, look at Chun-Li - perfect pair of thighs in tights RUINED. Hmmm, second queen of fighting games, eh? Who is the first queen? Chun-li? She and the other street fighter girls would be a lot more figure-friendly if they art style isn’t so muscle-crazy. This Cryska Barchenowa figure you’ve mentioned looks very appealing and after reading a second review of an Alphamax figure I feel more assured that I can expect that the skintone of their figures looks better than in the promo shots of them ) Their skintone there looks so much better than in these promo shots from Alphamax. If I remember right I only saw two reviews of their figures so far, the first was Spica at Visualfanfare and yours from Mai. I was interested in their Ryomou Shimei figure, but what detained me from buying a figure from Alphamax so far was the light setting Alphamax uses for their promo shots, it is misleading in terms of skintone, the skintone always looks so pale and give you the look of cheap plastic. I could imagine that you could also cut it off to have her on display with a bare butt XD
The incomplete thong looks some kind of funny maybe her thong ripped during a fight Oh nice, this Mai is a pretty huge and good looking figure, the sculpting quality seems to be very good.I also like the realistic looking brick stone base. I am looking forward to your review! I’ve got the feeling you and I may be the only people in the English-writing internet to have reviews of her. I wasn’t sure if it was going to be any good but I’ve got high hopes now. I’ve preordered their Cryska Barchenowa figure I saw the prototype in some Hobby Japan scans a month or two ago but I didn’t even know it was an Alphamax product. I wasn’t expecting much before I got her – some of the promo pics I’ve seen of their other figures looked sorta like Kaitendoh figures, but Mai looks very nice. I’m pretty impressed by this figure’s quality. I really liked Max Factory’s figure as well but looking at the two side by side, I can’t help but think that the older figure looks kinda weird now. I think it’s the second best Mai figure I’ve seen, though my favorite figure of her is a garage kit so it probably shouldn’t count (it’s this one here). Who indeed! The disconnect is my biggest beef with this figure though it’s not super conspicuous so I’m not going to flail it because of that.
