The window display records at easy street were not real. The grooves were extremely dull and would be unplayable.
Thanks. Its surprising, it would surely have been easier to use real records especially since we know they made some red. i guess this means that they might not have made any white at all. No ones been talking about getting red so there doesn't sound like many have been randomly sent out. The instagram showed a yellow bolt on the inner through the cut out where as the ones I've seen online seem to be white - does anyone know if this is the back of the inner.
After being lost in the UPS to USPS transfer for a bit, I got a red one--pre-sale from 10c. I've only heard of 2 more people getting a red one and someone won one at Easy Street. I think there's a few more than 5 floating around--probably not many more, but not everyone posts here.
Congrats, has anyone found a way to identify what colour you have before opening?
Hey guys those are not actual lightning bolt Lps. I went to the release party that night and was talking with the guy who did the display. He used random colored vinyl and took an image of lightning bolt cover and went to kinkos and had the image blown up to the size you see in the photo. He then traced it onto felt. Cut the letters and shapes out and there you have it. They did give away one copy of the red vinyl though. So yes red is confirmed but I have not heard of any other colors yet:)

I don't have a white backspacer. Could someone post a pic? I can't even imagine how that must look.
I dunno... I like it when people post photos of coloured vinyl. There are a lot of different shades of red, opaque vs solid, etc etc. Makes sense to me to want to see it. I.e. just got the TOTD purple vinyl.... kind of wish I'd seen a photo before ordering, because it is a really ugly purple, and I probably would have just gone for the cheaper black option if i'd known they managed to find a really bad shade of purple for the thing.

Did anyone end up with a red copy that did not buy from 10c, Volcom popup store, or eBay? I'm talking local record store, hot topic, amazon, goHastings, ect

I don't think there is a white one.

The people at easy street records said it (white vinyl) was a fake/display that they made.
Anyways, if anyone landed a red outside of 10c I'd be curious to know if any leaked outside of the club into normal retailers.

Pull out your black version and picture it being red. Simple enough? Do you want a pic of a clear vinyl? :roll:

Is it a fake display? I think we now know where all those defective copies are going.
I think Easy Street should never do another display with fake coloured vinyl again. It's very misleading!
Okay, thanks for the info...
