Got mine in the UK today. Was almost excited as someone mentioned it wasn’t as thick as the previous pressing (which I also have). Although it is slightly slimmer, the length is just the same as the previous pressing. Does it bother anyone else that it won’t fit in a regular sized outer sleeve?

Not so much sleeves right now, but I'm currently in the process of packing to move and I noticed that it doesn't fit well on my vinyl packing boxes. They'll ride in the alternate box for the vault series though, so not a big deal.I'm sure that I'll be annoyed about sleeves on the other end though.

This bothers me incredibly.
I have recently finally gotten all of the vaults and aside from the inconsistent type face size (WHY?!?!) the ONLY piece of furniture that they fit in is a 100 year old falling apart magazine rack I have no idea where I acquired and they have to stack to fit. Infuriating.
It fits a bit better in my album box than the 2016 EU pressing but it's still long. The fact the sleeve of original was a slightly bigger size than normal gatefolds always annoyed me a little but it fitted in a polythene sleeve I had that seemed to be cut too big.
Talking of weird sized record sleeves, I saw reissues of the first 2 White Stripes records in a store recently and they were quite a bit bigger than any other record. Quite strange.
