Kamen Rider Build has been lucky enough to have 2 regular SH Figuarts releases, with a 3rd to come in June. Here we have Night Rogue, the first major antagonist of the series. Holy crap, this figure is beautiful. Build was a good figure but his design is very simple. In contrast, Night Rogue is complex and far more intricate. The detailing is just superb and the articulation doesn’t suffer one bit for any of that. The paint is on point too, he even has glowing yellow eyes that can be seen under his bat visor when you look closely. The accessories are great as well. He comes with the Transtream Gun and Steam Blade, both are accurate to the show and look great on their own but can even combine into the rifle mode for an even cooler look. At the end of the day, I have absolutely zero negative things to say about SH Figuarts Night Rogue. He is a perfect Figuarts, as far as I’m concerned, and being a regular release, the price is fantastic as well. I hope Build and Kamen Rider in general continues to get more standard SHFs so that the Premium Bandai price of the majority of releases don’t weigh down the figures. So, try to support as many regular release SHFs as you can. This is a great one to start with.
