newfoundboy Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Hmm, looks like that second opportunity to buy the first pressing was actually them putting up the baby blue variant...? The point is: is it a second pressing or just a "first pressing variant"? i personally would prefer the baby blue color instead of a white one (that's why i'm considering to accept the MerchNow offer), but i'd also like more infos about this variant (limited to ?).

mpitts Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I took it because I like the album and want to listen to it on vinyl, which I wasn't able to do prior to this pressing. I don't get too caught up in variants, pressing numbers and all of that crap. Just give me the album. passionbrand and nobodybrokeurheart 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFP Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 This is interesting! I hope they will put these blue up soon! I was really hoping they would do a baby blue to match the back cover. I hope they get the shade right. I wonder what the Amazon color will be? Straight black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lfisher Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Got the same email. Took the second pressing. Is there a little thought in the back of my head that's bummed it's not a first press? Sure. But I'm more stoked to get a copy sooner than I would waiting for the second pressing to be announced/shipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newfoundboy Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 The MerchNow e-mail said it was a second pressing... Yeah i know, just asked to be sure. I also sent a reply to the MN mail to know some further info (hopefully). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc32137 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Ross (Enjoy The Ride) posted a pic of his on Instagram earlier this week. I'm bummed No Action isn't there (even though it's listed on both the cover and the label), but this is a stellar release. The write-up Marko did is a nice touch, too.

TFP Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Did anyone notice the back pic of the guys? It looks like a watercolor-y smudge like photo. I wonder if they had to blur some finer lines for the artwork blow-up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

passionbrand Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 due to my impulse control issues when it comes to my favorite albums i bought the record from a flipper on eBay for a very embarrassing price. now I'm a little happier knowing that I got the white copy. came to find out that a great friend of mine also picked me up a copy (because I am currently out of the country) and it will be the baby blue version. i will sell one of these on eBay when I return to the United States. haven't decided which one yet. I dont collect variants or anything and wouldn't want to keep two copies of this knowing that someone else out there didn't get one. ill post on here when it goes up for sale.

Shitty Rambo Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 It's the color of the back cover. Was the CD like this too? I can't really remember haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carrythezero Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Got an email for Merchnow to say "unfortunately your order was placed after the first pressing had sold out" and they are offering me the 'Baby Blue' instead, I've asked how many of that is being pressed and if they will be individually numbered. If I can't get the white, I'd rather just grab whatever the standard variant will be via Amazon as their shipping is a whole lot cheaper. Pretty weak on their behalf to oversell the 'White', I work for an online merchant and we always leave enough stock aside as a safety.

Brevity38 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Just got mine, spinning it now and it looks and sounds great. I'm having trouble reading the handwritten number on the back though, it looks like 302 to me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadDonut Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Alright I bought this on a whim and I know I'll never listen to it. It's still sealed and numbered 342/500. If you want it PM me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newfoundboy Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Just FYI, the baby Blue pressing is limited to 500 copies, according to the MerchNow staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
