Leona statue doesn't have a hat photo

You may have seen Nick Chester's post earlier about the giant hat Terry Bogard statue he got with King of Fighters XII. When my copy of KoF arrived on my doorstep this afternoon, I was terribly excited at the thought that I too would have my own massive hat as well. When I opened it up, it turned out not to be Terry, but Leona instead.

Sadly, Leona doesn't have any fashionable oversized accesories. She does look okay though, so check out the pictures in the gallery. Who has the better statue -- me or Nick? 

Also, how is everyone enjoying KoF XII? Who's your team? I'm going to use Leona for sure (the statue inspired me! Well, that, and I learned a 10 hit super combo with her), but I haven't decided which other two characters will fill out my team.

Still not sure whether to get it or not, but if I do, Ash Crimson has himself a permanent spot on what ever team I make :)

I don't like her eyes. Eh, what do I know/care. I don't buy this kind of stuff.

She's kick ass in game however.

I have to say that this looks better than Terry's figure, but still is a pice of sh*t. Totally agree Chronic Logic

I want you two to make your KOF statues have sex with each other at PAX.

The model itself is good, but the paint job is crappy, this seems to be the case with most of these figures.

Not a fan of that figure. I am certainly enjoying the game. :)

Hell, why not toss the (other) Ikari Warriors onto your team to complement her?

You win. Leona is the only thing tempting me to buy this game. I'm a sucker for a gal with blue hair.

That first picture that headlines the story worried me at first, but the other angles gave me a sigh of relief. The detail of the muscles and clothing folds is great, painting needs work, but that's what custom jobs are for.

tl;dr Thanks for multiple angles.

They are only trying to portrait KoF XII ugliness ...
