On December 19, 2024, Game Lady showcased their recent Head #28 (Mai Shiranui) on the 165cm G-cup body. Originally, they paired her with the more-realistic and less-curvy 168cm body, which didn’t quite match her in-game figure – resulting in a rather plain appearance. I was certain that she’d look better on their more-curvy 165cm body. Well, apparently Game Lady thought the same and delivered. Although they returned with the usual gray background, her iconic stance and signature poses quickly make up for it. Personally, I think this body fits her much better than before.

Conclusion
On a different body with flashy poses, Mai Shiranui returned looking a bit more like Mai Shiranui. Although she still isn’t perfect (which is expected with an existing body), I believe the latest photos better capture her essence, providing a more faithful recreation of the bouncy character. They also got the hair color right this time, so I have to give them props for revising the initial release. Still, something feels slightly off about her. Maybe it’s the visible neckseam (due to the hairstyle), or that the head wasn’t originally designed for this body (head-to-body ratio seems off?), something feels slightly off to me. However, I do prefer this Mai Shiranui to the “more realistic” one from before. The bigger breasts, wider hips, and toned abs add a lot. What do you think?

Which one do you prefer, and thoughts on the latest 165cm photos? Comment below!
I’m not familiar with this characters but I’ve seen similar kimono & black hair types in other mediums like anime. Based on this photo the character has a bit sharper features to create more engagement, which I think is better than this doll’s rounder soft features. The head still looks really good.

Interestingly, Mai’s appearance has slightly changed in every game or iteration of her (which I mentioned when Game Lady first released this head). The way I remember her is mainly from King of Fighters 2000 on the Game Boy (very long ago lol). In that game, she had big breasts, a thin waist, and thick thighs. That’s kinda how she’s usually portrayed. But over time, I think they tried to make her more realistic-looking. Since she changes in every game, there’s technically no wrong answer. Kinda like how Tifa changes in various games.
It’s hard to find screenshots for the game, but from what I’ve seen her face in the game fits well with larger body forms.
If I had a crush from a game I wouldn’t want her to change xD
There are some YouTube videos of her if you want to see, like this one: https://youtu.be/CwCqiG9JW3o?si=ah4MBdVX_h9GjXwF
But the characters were 2d sprites back then so a 3d rendition from Game Lady is still impressive.
You called it like a Boss with the 165cm. The side-by-side comparison is the exclamation point to it.
The character Mai Shiranui is also 165 cm tall, so I’m surprised they didn’t use this body from the beginning. Definitely fits her more.
Really? I think her cute small features fit smaller features of the 168cm body. Though it’s better for bed to have larger features.
