Sideshow News: BALROG is Here... and Looking Quite Buff
Maybe a bit too buff. I don't know. I dug the Gouki and the Ryu Premium Formats but Balrog (as he's called in Japan) is ok. I think Balrog here is based off the Jo Chen painting of him. I think he's a bit too buff and ripped to be honest.
He Kinda looks like the 2002 version of He-Man went to Spain got a poor man's Crying Freeman Tattoo. Regardless it does look nice and impressive but I think he's a bit too buff and has too many hard facial features. He's too damn manly looking.
Maybe this will be on the site, I don't know. But two versions of it are up right now on Sideshow. The exclusive one has "Interchangeable head and right hand for alternate unmasked display!" while the standard one doesn't. The good one, I mean the exclusive one goes for $274.99 and the non-exclusive one goes for $249.99.
