Though all parts from Armored Core are present in Armored Core: Project Phantasma, some of those parts can only be obtained by transferring a save from Armored Core that has already unlocked those items. Note that these items do not have to be in the player's inventory. Any items sold to the shop in Armored Core can be purchased from the shop in Project Phantasma, so long as the save is transferred. This includes items such as the LN-3001 and WM-X201 even if they're never purchased by the player.
All parts listed here available in Armored Core: Master of Arena via the shop from the beginning of the game.
