I actually regret not picking up Athena earlier when buying KOF figures. She was around 90 US when she released last year, but she has risen to around 150 US more recently 💀
Under $100? Where? BBTS has her for $129! It is a gorgeous figure though. I'm glad they didn't just fill the stuff under the skirt with a plastic block like some of the $26 figures from Bandai. It really irks me when they cheap out and do that. I've been burned by Bandai a couple of times. I see it as censorship but they're either being cheap/cutting costs or bowing from pressure from religious groups.
I primarily shop using HobbyGenki and Amiami since BBTS is NOTORIOUS for scalping. I want to say since Bandai is “family friendly” they aren’t going to be as fan servicey. Plus, extra details that won’t normally be seen would save the manufacturer some money. Thankfully, Kotobukiya stays faithful to the culture 💪
@@TakersKeep Taito, Sega, and FuRyu don't fill their ladies with cement. Thanks for the shop names. I'll check them out. If I can't find her, I might have to cave and order her from BBTS.
ive always wondered why some rotating bases had "mirror" bases ... now i know why lol solid review dude!
I see what you mean 👀
For the culture!
Hentai level upgraded
I love Kotobukiya’s Line of Bishoujo KOF figures! I have Athena and I look forward to the others!

She'll go great next to the Angel KOF figure if you're picking her up too!
Of course! I wouldn’t pass up Angel!
Great review ! I was between her and Athena.... better i ll get Shermie!
I’m glad I was able to help in your decision. Shermie is indeed best girl! I do hope to pick up Athena eventually though
