I'm gutted for you. I think there are still a few of the others floating around on e-bay (that was my back-up plan!) though they might end up as costing a bit more than on YesAsia. Try searching for "manic street preachers mini lp"

I don't know why they have to make their availability so limited.

Gp
It's really only very old CRT TVs that wouldn't support NTSC. If you do have a TV like that, but it (and your DVD player) supports RGB SCART (as opposed to composite SCART) it might still work. So in short there are very very few set-ups around nowadays that wouldn't be able to play an NTSC DVD, though it's right to point out it's possible, if not likely.

TIMT has been posted now and i've bought KYE and LB on cdjapan and had them marked as a gift and it came to just under £36 so hopefully i'll escape fees.

If anyones got a copy SATT they don't want to whatever reason, i'm happy to buy it off them

Same. Have now quickly hoovered up the remaining ones I still needed before they completely disappear.

to anyone who has the reissues - can you tell me if there are any new pics in it? and can you scan only the new pics and share?

the reissues are supposed to replicate (in great detail) the original vinyl releases so there are no new pics. (at least not with the first four reissues and i can't imagine the next four would have any new pics.)

got my lot in just now. once again, the reissues look stunning. haven't listened to any of it yet (i'm at work) but the packaging is awesome. couple of things i noticed

the Lifeblood reissue includes a replica of the original booklet that was included with the original UK vinyl LP.

the deluxe JFPL hardcover book is the exactly same as the UK version. it even has the same barcode and catalog number printed on the cover. it comes with a larger obi as well as a black and white japanese booklet with japanese lyrics/liner notes. the bonus tracks on the first CD are the same as the regular japanese edition (Primitive Painters and Alien Orders) and includes Bag Lady hidden at the end of CD. there are no demo versions of the two songs on the second CD.

Do You think the CD will go cheaper in a year or two? They are really terribly expensive...
