&, whilst it's also not what redmumba's after, it would be surprising if their 12" card was 100% identical to the band store version.

I think the 12" print will be identical, all signed at once and sent out to the participating retailers. The 2 problems i see with that are - 1. that the band store print was 'until stocks last' &, unless i'm missing something, it's no longer listed as being available, which suggests it's sold out... ...so it would seem to be a bit weird for them to have given Newbury Comics some of that stock.
2. & the economics - re the cost of importing signed copies to the US vs printing copies in the US & signing them whilst they were over there...
...& they've clearly printed a completely different thing for the Amazon Japan exclusive since that's 24cm - so slightly under 9.5" square.
So, whilst they *may* be *very* similar (again we also don't know quite what the format of the Amazon UK signed CD is), i would expect them to at least be on alt paper/card stock.
Yeah, what we also don't know for certain atm is whether the UK/EU & US releases for each of the 3 standard formats (LP, CD & Deluxe CD) are actually identical - as i'm sure that there were minor differences with the PG releases... ...&, again, this was about economics.
[Edit]
Just to be clear, i'm not stating categorically that you're incorrect - simply that the evidence from both Japan & PG would suggest that they're more likely to be printing & pressing stuff regionally with the US releases & prints...
...but until there's copies in people's hands then who knows.

Thanks! I've pre-ordered a copy. It would be nice if Japan also issued a vinyl, but you take what you can get.

So, how many copies total has everyone bought, so far? I have been going a bit nuts, lol. I have ordered from various sites:
2 clear vinyl 3 red vinyl 3 green vinyl 2 lime green vinyl 3 white vinyl (2 signed prints) 2 cassettes (1 with signed print) 3 deluxe CD (2 with signed prints) 1 deluxe CD (with special packaging from Japan)
I think I may need some help!
