And if I were to get that Mai figurine, should I sell it or keep it for a collection?

If you collect these kind of things and/or if you like the character, then keep it. If not then i would sell it.

Since you guys are talking about it: http://www.visualfanfare.com/reviews/alpha-max-mai-shiranui-omega-style-hipline-ver

It's actually a pretty well done figure, as far as most figures go. Released in January and currently discontinued. If anything, keep it as a reminder that you participated in a big moment in US KOF history.

I really hope EVO will big a stepping stone for bigger and better things for KOF XIII and its community.

Haven't seen this posted, but here are some good news for the Europeans fans, it seems RISING STAR will be publishing KOFXIII in EU territory.

Amazon France link:
http://www.amazon.fr/Rising-Star-King-fighters-XIII/dp/B005CNUYZQ

Rising Star Games:

It sound plausible, because there was an article that had rumored that ATLUS and RISING STAR were going to publish KOFXIII. Here is the article:

Why the hell is the game so expensive for EU compared to CA and US?

Have to wonder same thing. If the final price is what is marked, then I'm going to wait... about six months. Hope I'll get it cheaper.

Different publishers is the main reason. Another one is that it might be the price for a Special Edition. But dunno really, which is the typical price for a PS360 game in EU?

Shiranui_Ninja found Amazon.fr's listing on KOF XIII for Xbox 360 and posted on Orochinagi.

According to the listing, it will be localized by Rising Star Games for an October 15, 2011 release.

Again, thanks to our very own Shiranui_Ninja for the link in Orochinagi.

A member of this forums give me the link. I'm very thankful to him. Anyway, release date looks odd.. Europe release before NTSC-J? I don't think so. Let's see if Rising Star say something official about.

About Mai's figurine what really bothers me is her Yuri face and that she's pulling her thong like a porn star. And where is her fan? doesn't she fight with a fan? SNKP needs to understand that comunity will apreciate more Mai if she is a competitive fighter too, not only fanservice.

for 360 e don t know but for ps3 is around 60$ (50-55 Euro - on launch day if it's a good game) or less depending on the title.They won't sell shit with that price because a lot of adventure or fps are launching october - november and the casual gamer doesn't pay 60+ dollars for a fighter (the most sales they will get from casual gamers (and most likely they never heard of kof or they don t care too much about it) and not fighting game fans ... and with the reputation of XII i doubt people will buy this first day at that price).These people are mad stupid if they are going with that price for europe.
40 - 45 E max is the right price if they really want to actually sell anything.Prices for mvc 3 and mk9 went down pretty much (new here you can get them for about 30-35 E max new and used even less) or ssf4 for 25e or less ... so the casual gamer looking for a fighter will most likely buy those than this.

I wanted to preorder from amazon.com but for some strange reason they don't ship this shit to europe...

awwwwwwwwwww he doesn't want to see his waifu slandered, anyway dude i think your over reacting a tad bit to much ive seen plenty of tasteful(or i guess at least by your standards) mai figures on the net, and im sure snkp and all the fans know that mai is a more than competent fighter in the games you just gotta remember bro that sex sell and mai pretty much has always been the poster girl of snk just like chun-li with capcom, kasumi with team ninja etc.

ScrewAttack.com mentioned KOF XIII on their Digital Forecast show http://screwattack.com/videos/Digital-Forecast-Girls-Cargasms

Couldn't believe that even happened. Afterall, that site is infested with Capcom fanboys. If you even mention that you don't like Capcom's fighting games, you'll be flamed. Sometimes I even wonder why I'm member of that site.

I'lbuy it day 1 even if it's 100 euros:P Just give it to me the same time like US and japan please. Don't want to import and wait an extra month

Isn't rising star games those kind of european publishers who releases weird  japanese games with only 50 copies of the game but with the best special editions that you will ever see?
