What I personally use though as a UK shopper (though this is good for pretty much any country) is Zenmarket, a proxy site which directly orders the items from Premium Bandai for you. They have a 300 yen (3$) service fee though, and will need money for shipping within Japan as well as shipping to your country; but it always works out a lot cheaper than buying from the above sites. The only thing I would note is that right now shipping to America might be expensive due to Covid; but also due to Covid they're allowing an extra month and a half storage on top of the 2 they already offer.

Hey I was just about to plug zenmarket, thanks Kurona.

Huh...

While I'm not finding much of anything on this site (maybe because I'm in the US, I'll keep looking.

Oh! The way Zenmarket works is by plugging the URL of whatever thing you want into the search bar. Since Assault Wolf pre-orders have now gone live, let's go ahead and use him as an example!

I go and find his page on Premium Bandai; in this case here

https://p-bandai.jp/item/item-100014...&click_recom=1

And I just plug it into the search bar on ZenMarket. Resulting in this!

Hope this helps! I really should have said; I can't believe I forgot to tell the most important part ^^;

Wow, thanks!

Also that's a tad tricky on their part, but it also makes sense, I guess.

Yep, the shade looks better here to me.

I'm interested in seeing how those grips work on his hands. His closed fist hands have vulcan grabbing the parts so I thought it was going to be swappable, but then looking at some of the other pictures, it seems like they're attached to the forearm guns. and then when Vulcan is holding the Authorize Buster, it's in between the hands and the gun, so does the holding hand gun have a distinct shape to accommodate for that as well?

I'm going to say that they're molded into at least the closed fists and tab in under/around the edge of the forearm guns.

I've always disliked it when they design something like that as part of the actual suit instead of a weapon or optional attachment.

This made me realize that there were barrels on Vulcan's forearms and missile launchers(?) on his shoulders. I forgot he already attached weapons on his body. He used them so rarely...! Assault Wolf really is the War Machine of Zero-One.
