Not yet, Milly. I am struggling. I want three of these LPs quite a lot, but I'm lukewarm at best on the other four. Regardless of their motivations, I want to support black vinyl. And I do think it looks pretty good. All that said, I'm glad it's not selling out at a record pace so I have some time to think this all the way through.

I've read that complaint elsewhere at least a half dozen times. Mind boggling. Granted, it's being used as an excuse of cost (as in, "I'd love to buy this set but it's so expensive and it's not even on colored vinlyzzz. lolroflcopterbbq"). I'm sure this mode of thinking is very popular with the majority of Collectable Vinyl/Hot Topic Exclusive/Newberry Comic Exclusive/Urban Outfitter Exclusive fanatics and that is a large part of why we still see so many of these reissues appearing on anything but black wax.
There's a big difference between winging it and seeing what happens. Now let's go see what happens.
