The p-bandai US site is a little bit difficult for me to use search on, but I tried refreshing my memory on their releases so far and it’s just Black Sun, Shin Kamen Rider, Geats and the Mastermind figure.

I did not see any zero one releases on there. Maybe they decided to not do older series?

Edit: Also the difference between 1.0 gokai red and the seihou. It’s like looking at a cosplayer standing next to the real deal from the show.

Wow, I guess I should complain on the Internet more often. Shortly after grumping that I hadn't been able to score a preorder, I found Gokai Red listed as in-stock on Hobbylink Japan. I think I'm still in shock.

Here's also how the skirt piece is attached to Buffa. He also seems to have a unique crotch piece as there appears to be a portion carved out to let the skirt piece hang properly.

I was going to say that Buffa's skirt being attached that way would mean there's no way to accurately portray him with his skirt and a lower half buckle piece, but technically he's never used a standard lower half like Boost or Ninja so that'd actually be accurate?

That said, if you wanted to, it'd still be inaccurate without the skirt. I'd assume Tycoon's bandage around his thigh will be sculpted and pose the same setback, too.

All of them come with extra Geats pieces, we first learned it when the product description was released. I like this approach, it makes it so you don't have to keep disassembling both sets of helmets to do the form change

Close up of the lenses for anyone curious. I think these should be pretty simple enough for a third party to make the other colored lenses

He technically has used the lower boost half for a second before immediately using revolve on back in episode 6.
I have seen some Japanese fans attach the skirt to boost but they were the types to already customize figuarts. I've also seen some other fans being hesitant saying it "may be difficult" to do, not sure if they mean that in terms of not wanting to damage the figure/scratch paint, the connector piece actually being difficult to remove, or if the skirt is glued in place. Guess we''ll just have to wait until we get our copies of the figure.

I'm aware the product page said that the upcoming figures would come with Geats jaw pieces. I pointed it out because I remember months ago in this thread some people thought that another jaw piece would be redundant if the one on Buffa is already compatible with Geats.

Buffa's skirt piece: It isn't glued in place, but sandwiched between the pelvis piece and the abdomen plug. Looks like the material is soft enough to cut off though (start at 3:40)

Soft plastic, or rubber kind like on shinkoccou ?

They don't specify beyond saying it's a soft piece.

Also if some of you guys don't feel comfortable cutting the skirt piece on Buffa & happen to also collect RKF, a Japanese fan pointed out that the RKF skirt piece does fit on the SHF (although youd probably want to paint the belt detail silver and the top part black).
