    Golf has stuff…
    Spot on. My dad was always giving me a hard time about buying nice stereo equipment & music and I would be like “ok carbon fiber titanium sand wedge” 🙄

    Originally said the RSD one was my favourite, but the Missoula variant is actually the best I think. A lot of these variants are very busy with lots going on, and most of them clash with the colours of the centre labels (which are also very busy). The Missoula one looks very aesthetically pleasing with the centre label that is shown in the picture. 

    (Yes I’ve given this too much thought!)

    I liked Vegas for that reason. 

    Of the ones available to the UK, I think I'll be going with the clear version.

    I almost pulled the trigger on that one.

    They are all so pretty. Tough to pick just one.

    As evidenced by the amount of people who are tracking down and buying them all. I am not naming names...

    Someone pointed out rsd one may have to be held up to the light to reveal its brilliance.

    I think besides 10c red, that is the extra one I am grabbing.

    Not so sure that will be the case. I have a few records that are pressed on the shimmery gold. It does not need any holding up to the light. They are beautiful sitting on the platter and spinning. IF the RSD is that same material, it won't need holding up to light.

    Nothing since then. I suck.

    I don't know which is which - with FIFTEEN different versions, I am not even finding the energy to really care.

    This is your loss because there are many great looking ones amongst them.
    I love these different and unique colors.
    There are 14 different versions if I count right.

    Oh la la! Can't wait to check that one out on RSD.

    Side question...which one fits the theme of the album the best? I also tend to gravitate to colors that tie into the cover. 

    I say RSD, Vegas and black vinyl.

    RSD one for me. Not sure whether I’ll get one so I’ve locked in the red, white and blue intl one on pre order here in Aus. Not my favourite overall but happy with the Australian flag 🇦🇺 colours. That one is also cheaper than the red black and yellow being offered here as a pre order in Oz. Ten club one is pretty sweet. Overall it’s a good mix of interesting colours. Even standard black fits the theme! 
    FYI RSD vinyl here is just under $100 AUSD
    JBHiFi is offering red black and yellow vinyl for $105 AUSD
    If the vinyl was cheaper I’d be interested in obtaining a few of my favourite ones.

    I thought black, red and yellow was pretty appropriate for Australia? 🪃

    It is for sure, was just more expensive than the red white and blue one.

    It doesn't feel like a loss. It feels like a win.

    Hey, I have a dumb question. 

    Does anyone have a list of which DM Vinyl variants have which stickers on the outside?  Like for example, I have one, and the sticker says, Oro and Plata, but I dont know which one that is.  Is that Missoula?

    I know the LA one says Purple and Yellow, but the one in the shop doesnt look purple and yellow.
