Does that mean just another store that operates on the same rules? Still new to ordering web exclusive items.

It means you either order through retailers at expensive prices (see: $50 to $75), or you know someone with a Japanese address and has an account with them.

It isn't, though, because where those holes would be is already spikes. Plus, they'd need to go through the hinge arms holding the shoulder pads, AND form around the mohawk.

I'm a Transformers fan, and I may not own every AC figure, but I know the line's MO. That is not a transformable toy. Not a solid, durable one at least, which isn't AC's game. I'm still optimistic, but I've got no unrealistic expectations. For damn sure, a show-accurate transformation is not possible.

Also, ACPB-02? What was 01?

Considering Arms Change Mango totally goes away from the premise of all the other Arms Change toys by basically having to be mid-transformed before you can put the fruit on the figure, I would assume Bravo would follow a very similar approach. Either way, I can't wait to see it!

But mango does that in the show. Morphing cape aside, the AC transforms just like the show.

Durian attaches intact, and unfolds rather practically aside form the chest, which does a Bayformers "yeah I guess it's technically possible, if it was full sized and made of a dozen moving parts" transformation verses the obscenely simple approach to other Arms. The chest spikes literally grow out of the torso plate.
