Other than the 45rpm aspect, the original Ten Stories box is far superior to these new collectors editions. Unless they add something unique, I'm going to find it really difficult to buy new boxes for Ten Stories or Untitled. 

I agree with Untitled but the Ten Stories not being 45rpm is a replacement by default imo. I wonder if they'll include the bonus tracks when they eventually do it.

 

I hope they don't go either route and put out another Pale Horses box. What a disaster that release was. I wouldn't mind them nixing the appendix and pressing the album across both discs too, but could see it being a 3LP like Untitled.

An eventual Pale Horses boxset gives me the will to keep living.

I love my Pale Horses deluxe and Ten Stories Boxset.  If they did those again they both would have to really come out swinging for me to bother replacing them.

The Pale Horses deluxe was great in concept, but that jacket turned out to be a complete mess. I would much prefer to have that in an actual box with some cool art inside instead of the floppy, prone to falling apart and tearing, jacket that they released.

Bingo bango.

The color choices for these boxes have been on point, too.  PH deluxe deserves better than a rasta tri-color.

I was lucky and my Pale Horses arrived with no issues, and it's held up fine over the years.

I dunno, 45rpm is one of the extremely few marketing tactics that actually majorly improves sound unlike 180g virgin vinyl etc. Even if these reissues came in plain sleeves by themselves the difference in sound is incredible and the only way I want to listen to mwY now.

Yup I’ll sell my rainbow rasta pale horses deluxe for a new one in this style in a heart beat

Yeah I really like the Pale Horses deluxe, it's a treasure, but the 1x33 presentation on the (albeit really fun-looking) noisy color-chaos variant leaves a lot to be desired and I would pick up a 2x45 without a second thought.

My Pale Horses deluxe is also fine. Haven't listened to it a ton so it's in good condition. Still have the extra Side A/B from when they messed up and didn't originally ship Apendix.

darn, I missed it!  what was the price?

Think it was $10 cheaper than the recent deluxe editions. Can't remember...

think the manager answered "thats the plan" when asked about getting a collectors edition for all the other albums. So think Ten Stories and Pale Horses will definitely get the same treatment, but can probably take some time.

Bought the Pale Horses deluxe not so long ago from the UK store, doesn't fit nicely next to the latest CFUTF and B, S boxes. The Untitled collectors edition looks cool next to the those, just twice as fat and heavenly white. Like a good conclusion
