What the F is this garbage? Please tell me they're not doing collectors editions of each volume before the mythical box.

Lol, I give up. Just gonna buy something at this point cause I don't think this boxset is ever coming.

since the first announcement of the vinyl version in filmmusicdaily they clearly said lakeshore would release a "limited collectors edition" and invada a "limited collectors box set" in fact every time someone ask lakeshores instagram about the "box set" they refer to it as the "collectors edition" so i guess this is the americas version of the box set and thats it

There would have to be new music on there for me to think about a double dip. The artwork is lovely, but that ain't enough. I've been spinning the black LPs for months now and they sound great. Zero chance that I'll pay $30-40 per set for new artwork, a patch/poster/film cel/etc, and splatter wax probably sound worse, but assuredly no better, than the copies I have now.

So... cool that they finally announced this, but... wtf?

 

So both Invada and Lakeshore are essentially just releasing new variants, but Invada's come packaged together? I don't even see a picture of the "box" that would house both of them. And I really think the colorway they chose for the box is pretty ugly.

 

I like this Lakeshore one:

Yeah I think I may just grab both of Lakeshore's new colorways. I see no point in ordering from Invada instead. For what, an extra fold-out poster?

Seriously  don't understand why they didn't bother having two different images for the volumes. Even Mr. Robot had a change with Elliot wearing a mask/no mask. Just screams laziness.

It's a terrible lack of any type of effort for this release. It's almost like they got lazy and said "F it."

And they didn't change/alternate cover art, yet the inner gatefold art is different for each one? What in the F?

I'm not seeing any value or point to this re-release.

$$$$ is their only incentive, as I see nothing new (liner notes lol) about these.

I mostly meant that I don't see any point for the consumer who already owns the other versions. Though logic has no place in the mind of collectors, so who am I to say?
