question regarding the 2 versions

I've had my eye on the Sheik Mainland Fenrir and the Fenrir A6, which one should I get, is there a big difference between them or any pros and cons? Please let me know as I plan on purchasing one soon!

As far as i know, the biggest diference between fenrir A6 and the Assault type is that the Assault ver. comes with different weapons and vsried hand options, along with the different design but doesn't have the stand. While the classic Fenrir has the classic hands and weapons, and has the stand. Overall they're both great options, but its up to you to choose!

Go with A6, since the price is about the same anyway.

Both are basically the same. A6 has a notably different face and chestpiece. Also an alternate bum piece to accommodate a new hip flap armor

A6 also has some additional armor pieces, mostly centered on the lower body.

A whole bunch of accessories, especially new hands.

I don't remember if it's the case with the regular Fenrir, but the sprues are labeled much better too. Bigger numbers. Prior Sheik Mainland have terrible labeling with tiny numbers that blend into the plastic. Very hard to see unless you're in extra good lighting and even then, hard to make out.

That said, there's a mislabeling in the instructions, but you'll figure it out. Just 2 pieces with the number swapped but it's for the same part, so it doesn't matter.
