jurrobear Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I must say that Sams Town is their best album. I would to get a copy of these too, I'll wait for the clearance rack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elgato Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 So then, anyone wanna buy a totally limited and collectible Hot Fuss t-shirt for the low, low price of $20? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blanketbyday Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I will most likely buy one of these eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elgato Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I just looked more closely at that eBay listing. Is the t-shirt compartment built into the sleeve or is there a normal 12" sleeve included? I cannot imagine wanting to shelve the damn shirt along with the record.

harryq Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I just looked more closely at that eBay listing. Is the t-shirt compartment built into the sleeve or is there a normal 12" sleeve included? I cannot imagine wanting to shelve the damn shirt along with the record. I believe it's a regular sleeve. From what I've seen of the Manson version (http://www.ultimatemansonbible.co.uk/message_board/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1900), it's the vinyl on the front of the package and then there's a separate "box" for the shirt. Also, they say on that forum that the vinyl itself looks to be of quite poor quality (though they hadn't actually listened to it yet). It's worth noting that that album is from like 1994 compared to 2004 or whatever for the Killers (in terms of the low image quality, assumed sound quality, etc.)...

TFP Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 My Hot Topic has just reduced this Hot Fuss to $16 - so that's great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

element101 Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 they were but they sold out as soon as it hit 16 bucks http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/WhatsNew/Music/The-Killers-Collectible-Vinyl-And-TShirt-Set-982833.jsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harryq Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 damn, I might have to consider buying this and the manson one now, despite the manson one having a label from the wrong album and a poorly blown up cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 My Hot Topic had about 20 all for $16. This was the most stocked I'd ever seen it. All the newest FAT titles and a bunch of VC splits. Now I'm just waiting on the BYO box set to go half off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three days ago, and I got a shipping confirmation yesterday. Just checked the link now and they're showing small and medium as options.

Holy shit, everyone in the topic in that link is an idiot. "the more i look at it, the more that Arma-motherfucking-geddon pic on the record's label bugs me. Bravado should cease production and correct the mistake. and offer by mail a replacement label for everyone who already has this sucky one. until them, lets all spam mansons fucking myspace! who's with me?" "just from looking at the disc I'll be surprised if it's anything but CD sourced audio." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harryq Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 just listened to the manson one and the killers one, and they both sound good to me (though I'm not exactly an audiophile or anything). one thing I have noticed though is that the manson one seems rather "bowl shaped," probably due to the lack of support from the shirt compartment...

Stoked to have the record, but this is hands down the most ridiculous, yet pointless, overpackaging of an LP I've ever seen. I cannot for the life of me figure out why they thought the shirt compartment needed to be integrated with the sleeve. So do I put the shirt back in the box every time I'm done wearing it? IDIOTS.
