Erasu and text on the pictures? Hello Web-Exclusive.

Thankfully it looks kinda terrible. The steam effects are neat but the figure itself looks off. That being said, this was the case with the other Build Figuarts as well and they looked much better on other occasions, so maybe this one will too?

Anyways, pass I guess, don't really want this now that I have seen it.

Yeah now that I'm looking at it...the head looks far bigger than his actual body. I'm hoping this is a case of bad photography though.

He looks....okay? Passable, but certainly not good enough for me to pay Premium price for him. The steam effects are super cool though.

I said Build was gonna be my (mostly) year off so it’s nice to be able to stick to it. Might just get Build and Cross-Z at this rate.

There are a few errors in the article; it's Night Rogue and Blood Stark, not Rouge and not Stalk.

If I understand properly, Stalk is the official Romanization, and I know it doesn't sound like that when pronounced in the show.

I'm torn between thinking the proportions are wrong and the realization that it's a lot more interesting-looking than the in-show suit.

Actually the official romanization is Stalk, plus it makes sense, Stalk does sneak and spy a bit, meaning he's 'stalking'. Night Rouge was a mistake though

That head looks way too big. I love the suit design in the show and the character himself, so it's a shame this figure looks kind of mediocre. The detailing and paint look good, but those proportions are just really distractingly off. I hope later images look better, because this is disappointing for sure.

Definitely a must-have for me, I love Blood Stalk's design and character. I don't mind the proportions, they're not a deal breaker for me, though I do think that the muffler muffler could be a little bigger.

Yeah, Stalk is husbando, but this figure is not gonna be worth it if it's Web Exclusive. If it was a regular release I may have just let my love for the character override the flaws, but I just can't justify paying premium price for the weak sculpt they churned out for the Faust generals. I do think he looks better than Rogue, and the effect parts are an extremely nice touch--but it's definitely not really up to the standards TN has set for themselves. Disappointing.
