They could make special editions for each video, for example, in the Empty Souls vid, JDB in that fetching leather jacket and Nicky in swimwear

They're all basically Action Men in waiting anyway with the THB era

I would have bought the Clash ones, but they weren't released.

That's an excellent idea.
They could probably get away with slightly altering ones that already exist:

It's the only place to get the This Is The Day single now as HMV no longer have Natty Tresures with the CD Single bundle for preorder.

Just after Christmas they're launching a magazine series "The Complete Manic Street Preachers" with each magazine having a CD single. First issue will be £1.99 (featured single A Design For Life CD1) with subsequent issues £4.99.

Each magazine will have exclusive Polaroid pictures taken by Nicky and his comments.

Also each magazine will have a famous quote with an article on the author.

Subscribers will receive a free barrel to scrape.

If there's a regular section entitled 'What My Politics Degree Means To Me', I'm sold.

wtf? i hope for the sake of HMV that this is because they have sold the amount of them they had on pre-orders and not because Sony decided "actually, fuck you, you are not having this exclusive".

if someone decides that they now are going to order this box just to get the TITD single, please step forward so we may call you a fucking lunatic.
