Haven't gotten mine and I don't have any other Ultramen to compare, but I assume this is because they had to since Alpha Edge was a more armored look for an Ultra.

Depends on where you live. I get by having some resellers in my country open up reservations for certain P-Bandai stuff. Although, recently they don't seem to be stocking up on the latest ones, so I had to import Dragonic Knight myself, unfortunately. I think Zenmarket would be a good way to get some figures. Their fee is fixed iirc.

No answer to Tamashii Nations re-releasing those. I believe only Kabuto, Hibiki, and OOO had been reissued thus far. I do believe Nigo and/or Amazon are much easier to get on Mandarake or Yahoo auctions. Best try there.

If Build Genius isn't confirmed AND released this year then I don't know what to think anymore....

Technically, it's somewhere around 1 and 1/2 or 2 years for Muteki since he only got revealed alongside Rabbit Tank Sparkling. I do believe they have plans to release the other final forms, it wouldn't make sense not to and Zero Two is a guaranteed release at some point.

The general rule floating around is that they're waiting to get out all the suits they can turn into SHFs and then tying the subline to a close with the final form. I can see SHFs of Blood, Killbus, Sin Specter, Tsukuyomi and Geiz Majesty released before we see Genius, Mugen and Grand.
