Embrace Japan's NEOGEO Battle Coliseum Athena pre-order
Ho.Lee.Sh--Snap. Oh my goodness.. If you thought I'd been excited before, then... you have no idea. This ranks up there with my excitement for Hot Toys' Loki. I mean seriously. I somehow DIDN'T know a new Athena figure was coming? I'm slipping in my increasing age! Embrace Japan has just made my entire year by debuting a new figure based on the ancestor of one of my favorite fighting game characters ever - Athena. Goddess Athena made her way into NEOGEO Battle Coliseum in place of Athena Asamiya, and she will never be forgotten. Once you get turned into a cat, there's just no forgetting that.
Embrace Japan's Athena figure is set to release in April 2014, which will probably be here before we know it. She retails for ¥10,000, but you can save a bit when you pre-order of course. I immediately through down my pre-order when I saw how lovely her body looks. She has curves that could make a girl blush. I know I can't be the only one who's excited out there!
