News:: Nippon Ichi! New Mai Shiranui figurine from Hobby Japan

Outside of the Street Fighter cast, there are few fighting game characters more recognisable than SNK's Mai Shiranui. This popular ninja gal has a been a figurehead for the company ever since her debut in 1992's Fatal Fury 2.

Now you can have a Shiranui of your very own, as Hobby Japan have crafted this wonderful 1:6 scale figurine of the happy-go-lucky fighter. Mai stands at just over 10.5 inches, and is depicted in her trademark fighting stance. There have been a few figurines of Ms. Shiranui over the years, but this one has some really nice detailing going on. Notice the fabric patterning and hair-blending, for example.

Mai Shiranui is available for pre-order over at Play-Asia, priced at around $190/£140, not including shipping or any customs taxes. Mai is expected to ship in May of this year.
