No hand numbering, no screenprinted wraparound. What. the. fuck. Hmm that sounds about right. Only the orange deluxe version had a wraparound or numbering.

Regarding the CD, is the only different between their "limited" editions and the standard retail that their versions are numbered? The standard 2-CD on Amazon looks identical to their "1st Edition" run. If true, that's pretty comical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually released two identical "limited" editions (1st and 2nd, each numbered to 2049) on the website and then released this much larger edition (3rd, unnumbered) for wider sale at a price several dollars cheaper. Same music, same art. Folks are understandably displeased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think so... in the case that they'll handle the records like the CDs it would be quite ridiculous and an obvious cash grab... but i'd keep my order on the LP anyway cause it's nice to have a first pressing, i bet other labels will be releasing this on all kinds of coloured vinyl in the future, was hoping to get a blue pressing to go with my red one of the original lethalenforcer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shady release by them regardless, but the worst offense is that it appears the wide-release "3rd Edition" has the exact same artwork as the "1st Edition." Which sorta means the "2nd Edition" is the most unique of the bunch. All awful. This movie deserved better, and I'm expecting them to pull the same garbage with the vinyl.

Good question. The fanbase is rabid - as evidenced by how those CD's sold pretty damn fast. The bad artwork and fact it's on black wax may actually deter some people, though. I'd say you'll be fine but who knows. Also: completely expecting an identical, unnumbered version to hit Amazon, etc. Edited October 24, 2017 by lethalenforcer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost a lot of respect for Sacred Bones on this one. Did they go "But the exclusive screenprint?" because you can't possibly pretend that it's not exclusive to your edition. Unless they're lying about that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also keep in mind that the OG Blade Runner vinyl release wasn't really that amazing to look at besides it just being the poster as well.

Ugh. Same. To be fair, they didn't really try with the score. They had a composer working on it for months, sacked him, and then Zimmer worked on it for one or two days and Wallfisch for three. 7 hours ago, Vector53 said: Best case is you buy and can always resell if a new and better looking cover comes out. Also keep in mind that the OG Blade Runner vinyl release wasn't really that amazing to look at besides it just being the poster as well. There isn't really an true OG Blade Runner vinyl. One of the many reasons why the score has cultivated such a mystique about it. Heck, even the versions we have now aren't really the score as it appears in the film. On wax, there's the New American Orchestra classical re-recording from 1982, but, with the exception of a Warner Brazil promo in 1994, you have to wait until 2013 to get the Audio Fidelity LP which is itself a vinyl remaster of the 1994 Vangelis CD that includes new music and some tinkered with originals as well. They do all feature some version of poster art on their covers, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethalenforcer Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Up at BM. Probably same thing but without numbering. Also 150g vs 180. http://www.bullmoose.com/p/26111283/blade-runner-2049-soundtrack-2-lp-150g-w-download-insert axotyl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
