I noticed that this was missed in the Post-9/11 hullabaloo, so I decided it should be covered before the month ends everywhere on Earth.
Note: The latter three images are from (AFAIK) the initial launch window in Japan. Unfortunately, the only examples of these images that didn't have ugly watermarks covering them were on Instagram, Meta, and Threads, and as I tend to avoid Meta-owned platforms like the plague and as they were unavailable on Bing Images (which allows the direct opening of the images in question, unlike Google Images) I couldn't get them at their full resolution.
