Where are English Weiss Schwarz sets sold?
Summary
Each English product page lists its own sales territories, and they vary a lot. Azur Lane is sold worldwide except Japan. PIXAR CHARACTERS, Marvel/Card Collection, and Disney Mirrorverse are sold only in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Hong Kong. The United States is not on that list. Avatar: The Last Airbender is one English set whose territory list includes Japan.

The two NIKKE sets show how much this changes from one release to the next. The first was sold worldwide, and Vol.2 leaves Japan out.
PIXAR CHARACTERS reached Japanese shelves on October 21, 2022, more than two years before the English release. The card lineup is the same in both, 100 types plus 100 parallels, with matching counts such as 1 LUXO, 9 SSP, and 18 PXR. Both use 9-card packs and 16-pack boxes; the Japanese pack costs ¥440 including tax and the English one has an MSRP of $4.50.
The gap can also be short. NIKKE Vol.2 came out in Japan on September 19, 2026, six days before the English version.
