Ah crap, Pieter... I knew there was a catch!!!
What is it with everything being released in fours with this damn band!!! Still looking for Rocks volume 4. Innuendo on LP? You don't say? That's the ONE I'm missing... great! Something tells me this isn't going to be 79.99.

The order that they are being released in makes no sense to me. Neither does the fact that 4 of these LPs are now part of a QPR boxset. Whatever though. At least they are getting released.
Anyone know if the vinyl will be available in Canada?
I checked Best Buy here in Canada and they only had the CD version of TCR. No CD/DVD combo or vinyl...
oh well.

I went back to the Best Buy where I bought my set. Looks like someone else bought one. Just 2 left..
Hey guys, go check this site out: acousticsounds.com
You can buy the new vinyl individually, and I'm sure they ship overseas.

WOW!!!
I am one happy camper. I opened one of my box sets upon purchase last night and probably sat there with it for 20 minutes in awe. Absolutely stunning. For collectors, the albums are not individually sealed. I'm keeping my other box sealed.
If you're wondering, these re-issues are VERY true to the original. Right down to the non-gloss paper on the NATO cover. The SHA includes the lyric foldout, although it is on a glossier paper as opposed to the original issue. The sleeves are identical! Down to the color, inside gate-fold, everything. Absolutely brilliant. The records are a bit heavier, which tells me they may be of higher quality.
The sound? Outworldly. You will notice a difference right away, nice bright crisp sound!! Any fan needs to hear TCR on vinyl at least once. "Some Things That Glitter" made me tingle. The album is 2 records with means an additional large picture that you don't get in the CD. It's ok, it appears they've just photoshopped the band into different scenes. Roger is recycled the most, Brian at least changed the position of his hands but kept the same pose.
The CD is the CD/DVD combo, but I was a bit disappointed in the DVD. I thought they could have edited this 'highlights' disk better, but since I have the Super Live DVD already, it doesn't really matter. The CD/DVD booklet is identical to the one issued with just the CD.
Finally, the box is nice and sturdy. It's gonna last for a long time. But it makes me want a limited edition box for EACH album now.

Thanks. Is there an additional number on that box that starts off with something like 50087...?
Does the cd have D0002.../ 50087... numbers too? Thanks again!

Thanks Erin! More numbers to add to my lists...
I bought mine just in time. They made me wait over a minute so I got another $10 off, so mine was only $69.99, you can't beat that, it's like 1/2 price.
I listened to the vinyl, and I was unimpressed. I was even less impressed with the quality of the ANATO cover, it is made out of very cheap paper, not the glossy cardboard like in the old days. Also I was hoping that Queen II would have the USA cover and not the UK version (with the golden glow surrounding the four heads). Yet, I am very happy with the Sheer Heart Attack lyrics included like it was in the first vinyl pressing. I'm glad I bought it, but ven happier now that it went up to $120.
