you can see lyrics behind the cds in that photo which match the website photo - the cds are on display in website photo so the writing would be more visible..and the vinyl comes from the left side of the sleeve in the website photo which would make sense if the cds were attached to the left side.. ( I may be over-thinking this too much )

i hope you're right - i want a separate LP! it's the only reason I bought the boxset!

Ah. I couldn't see the trays in the website photo.. just lyrics. That would be unbelievably shit if they've done that but it wouldn't surprise me.. we shall see on monday… if i'd ordered it from amazon i'd probably have it today

No sign of it today from myplaydirect and I'm leaving early on Monday for the Glasgow gig so no chance of giving it a spin before the gig. Shame.

Has anyone actually had a dispatch e-mail? I got one of the signed ones so I figure they maybe haven't signed them yet.

Got mine today It's a nice set, feels like they learned some lessons from the GT20 box set's issues - the CDs are in card slits and everything fits in the box properly.

The vinyl has a nice inner sleeve, but the CDs and vinyl are indeed all part of the same gatefold, so if you wanted the vinyl separate you're out of luck, though you could remove the CDs if you wanted to and they're aren't any foam or plastic bumps, just the card slits.

Now a strange James rant has turned up: http://www.theguardian.com/music/201...of-1994-single

Guess it's never been his favourite so probably doesn't care about a bit of graffiti.

Ah, that realisation when you're Christmas shopping online and find you've been distracted into buying stuff for yourself instead.

So aparrently a few of the early run have 4st7lb listed on the wrong side of the vinyl.

Or, another classic Manics bungle!
