My picture disc collection started with the original Thriller one on the day of release back in early 80's and I've never used one for playback as they are completely crackle city. Wouldn't pay these stupid prices and agree that it's just the 'fashion' at the moment with ridiculous cost. The record companies are taking advantage for nostalgia reasons. I agree. Unfortunately, I'm an absolute magpie for shiny MJ shit. And this does look gorgeous. Some predictions- Single version of Rock With You Later mix of Get On The Floor Single mix of Billie Jean Single mixes of Bad, TWYMMF, IJCSLY,Dirty Diana, Smooth Criminal LP/Single edit of TDCAU Revised edit of HIStory Invincible still to be a disappointing album Not exactly wild bets, but I would be pleasantly surprised if I was wrong about at least 1 of these

This is totally something I would buy just to have it but I'm worried I'd buy it and the records will sound shit. I probably wouldn't play them that often though. Also no Leave Me Alone?

Bad 25 had Leave Me Alone but other re pressings haven't. I'll spin Bad 25 Pic LP tonight and see how it sounds. Will let you know

I wonder if they're gonna come in actual sleeves or if it's just gonna be cheap plastic ones that break the instant you open them.

The thread title should be changed to "The Picture Disc Collection" or something like that.
The definition I pasted earlier said most of these discs don't have a good quality sound, so they're targeted for hardcore fans who like to collect. I haven't had a vinyl player in ages, I have no idea how my picture disc sounds, neither how much it cost me 9 years ago. A person bought me some MJ stuff I didn't have in USA and I gave him money. I hope they're in a more affordable price in later years and can be purchased inore places.

It kills me/I can't wait.

Haven't gotten around to Bad 25 yet because I was watching dinosaurs but will give a report. Discogs showing review of Rice Krispies ie. snap, crackle & pop. One thing I will say is HIStory was only 3 sides in 1995, so 4 sides could come close.
