The blue has been pressed three times (1995, 2000, 2010), the black sveral more.

The original 300 pressed in 1995 were hand numbered on the inside top right corner.

The other colours were all pressed in 2010, no pressing info at all unfortunately.

As for the black mispress, I have only seen a few. There is a lemmings mispress with TCTCU on aswell. I suppose there are more, but how many people actually play them when bought to find out that its got the wrong music on.

EDIT: There is no real way of telling the pressings apart. The original Blue tend to be darker with occasional dark swirls, similar to the Lemmings yellow pressing, only it's not as noticible.

The first run on blue was actually a repress. I have #4/300 that I bought on eBay from the label. #1-3 were also sold on eBay. Anyways, I joined eBay in November of 1998 so there's no way this came out before 1999.
