Good Smile Company has revealed and opened pre-orders for its upcoming Pop Up Parade figure of Mai Shiranui. It will use her appearance in The King of Fighters 97 as the primary reference for this figure. The non-scale static figure will have an approximate height of 170mm (6.69in).
People who reside in the U.S. and Canada can order the figure on Good Smile Online Shop U.S. at $31.99. Those living elsewhere worldwide can instead place orders on the company's international web store at ¥4,800 / €33.90.
Some of the sample images for the figure are available to view right below:
The new Pop Up Parade of Mai Shiranui will be Good Smile Company's first King of Fighters character figure to be made after the previous batch in 2017. In that year, the company released Nendoroids of Mai and Kyo Kusanagi, as well as figmas of Kyo and Iori Yagami.
This figure will not be the only one to feature the KOF 97 version of Mai. In 2022, Tunshi Studio released a 1/6 scale seamless action figure based on the same version. However, Tunshi's action figure featured a realistic face, while the newer Pop Up Parade figure will have a more anime-esque facial design.
Good Smile Company will close pre-orders for the Pop Up Parade figure of Mai Shiranui from The King of Fighters 97 on February 22, 2024. It will formally release the figure in Japan in July 2024 and in North America in Q4 2024.
