*woman screaming*
He looks off the same way all of the Build Figuarts look off. I do like it though. He's less weird looking than Night Rogue, which is a shame because i think Night Rogue is a better design in general. Last edited by Smozz; 04-07-2018 at 08:09 AM.. |

True, because they all share the same base body which is not accurate in terms of proportions, but Rogue's head sculpt is just a mess.
So he looks off just like all the others, but also extra off because the head sculpt is crap. |

The head sculpt is not really bothering me on this one. I can see what people are talking about, the crocodile jaws are quite a bit longer than on the show suit, but for me, it's not enough to really distract from the overall appeal of the figure. Or maybe I'm just extra blind today and I can't really see how off it actually is.
To be honest, the standard Figuarts line has always had its inaccuracies. I think that's where the Shinkocchou Seihou line comes in, where you get that pinpoint accuracy in regards to detail and sculpting. The standard line, to me, was always more about simply trying to capture the look and feel of the character, maybe with an ever-so-slightly stylized approach, v.s. the Seihou line, which is for people who want something 100% as they see it in the show. After all, you look at the entire Figuarts line prior to Gaim and it was all stylized in some shape or form. Prime example for me is Fourze, who was played by Mr. Kamen Rider himself, but they played with the proportions a little bit to make him look more like a teenager.

I agree, not every figure needs to be 100% accurate to be cool, and proportions have always been all over the place. Even though the Build ones are absolutely not correct I'm fine with them.
But when it comes to obvious details like this that could easily be fixed if they just looked at the source material... that I find a bit disappointing. The figure still looks awesome and I will probably get it but I just wish they did a better job on just this one detail. And maybe they will, they have shown that they rework their figures before release; they have made mistakes before and fixed them. |

checked a pic of the suit, and yeah, the head crocodile jaws are too big, but still, this might be my fav suit design on the show
just like Zombie Gamer was so spectacular to stand out in Ex Aid, this is the most eye catching on Build

Found this tweet from Tamashii that reads: "S.H.Figuarts Masked Rider Rogue Soul Web Store Starts Order Coming Soon!", so expect this to be a Web-Exclusive release with pre-orders opening up sometime this month.

Official pictures from Erasu's Twitter:
https://twitter.com/_Erasu/status/986670608971902976 Pre-orders go up this Friday, April 10th. Web-Exclusive release in September, 6264¥. Rogue includes the Nebula Steam Gun + rifle parts, the Gear Trinkets of the Engine Bros. and an unknown amount of hands. The head is hella inaccurate still (that could change though) but man this figure is gorgeous. And they didn't skip his weapons either, so I'm game! |
