    I'm wondering why the photos vary so much. For example, the center labels on each variant are all the dark amber swirl, when the  record is shown half way out of the cover jacket. When shown fully out, in 1 mass photo, they have an array of different labels. 

    I would want to know for certain what it will look like (within normal variance of pattern) before I consider an additional variant beside the one I ordered originally. 
    If I have to open the album to see what label is on it, that would seem to make it non-returnable, if it’s not what I anticipated.
    The center labels matter that much to you?
    I thought they all come with different center labels to change out?

    It comes with a sticker sheet of center labels so you can choose which one to put on.

    Would be great if the center labels are just random. But I could see one side being consistent across all release and the other being random or differs by release type.

    Past the first copy, yes. If the only difference is what it looks like, the appeal of the combination is key. I would not get an additional copy just for the sake of a limited item.

    I doubt the Red, White, Blue is limited to 500. Where did you find this?

    Yeah, that‘s probably 500 for Italy alone.

    I'd tend to agree that the # is probably higher, but included it since that's the best info I have currently. Hopefully at some point, someone from Ten Club will verify, or post the press #'s

    Probably a long shot, but does anyone know if there is anywhere that still has the green/gold PNW version that ships internationally? Easy Street didn't ship to the UK.

    These records look fantastic when spinning (as can be seen on FB).
    Just beautiful!

    It'd be hilarious if they also announced that, oh by the way, each of these variants will have an exclusive demo version of one of the album tracks or some such thing. Kind of like Paul McCartney did with McCartney III.

    That would be one sure way to get me to spend.

    They really jacked the price up in that one. At Darkside Records it is $46.99.
