The King of Fighters '97 - Asamiya Athena figure presents a dramatic, dynamic pose that captures her energetic spirit. The sculpt emphasizes her distinctive anime face with a determined smile and bright eyes, framed by flowing twin-tailed hair that captures light and movement. She wears a stylized stage-ready outfit inspired by her classic KOF '97 design: a cropped jacket over a sleeveless top, a short pleated skirt, and knee-high boots, with subtle accessories that nod to her Psycho Soldier heritage. The texture work on hair, fabric, and accessories is finely detailed, from the creases of the jacket to the metallic sheen of accents. The base renders a subtle arcade-themed platform, enhancing the figure’s action-ready silhouette and giving a strong presence on display.

Athena Asamiya is a cheerful, telepathic fighter from the Psycho Soldier clan who joins the King of Fighters tournaments to safeguard her friends and confront mysterious dark forces that threaten the world. Blessed with psychic powers, she can project energy blasts, create barriers, and bend chance in small ways, all while maintaining a bright idol persona that belies her inner strength. In KOF '97, Athena balances fame and duty as rival teams push her to grow, facing betrayals, rivalries, and the ominous Orochi plot that tests her resolve. Her journey centers on friendship, teamwork, and self-belief, as she hones control over her abilities and discovers the true meaning of courage in the heat of battle, stage lights, and high-stakes showdowns.
