The cover of the boxset is the crown they're doing for Michael's 60th birthday/diamond celebrations. I wonder if they'll (re)-release anything else in this series... A re-release of "The Collection". Jesus, that just reminded me, even when they did that they made a fuck up. They had the special editions of Off The Wall, Bad, Dangerous and NOT Thriller, just the 9 tracks. Some of the errors are so confusing as to how they've happened. I was more disgusted by not including HIStory. I mean I know it's a double album but just include Disc 2 for God's sake. It's pretty straightforward.

I'm curious to see what images they include Should we expect 1 wrong photo per disc like the calendars? Picture of MJ at Neverland in Thriller? [br Can't wait to open it and see a photoshopped picture of an MJ impersonator in there!

Actually quite exited to receive this, I think I have only one MJ vinyl (HT/BTM). I know they probably won't sound that good but it's just a collectors item.

I know I am new here and need to establish myself, but this type of thing just angers me. They offer this stuff to us the big fans, and I know you all barely know me yet - but I can and will assure you I am a HUGE fan of Michael Jackson and practically have all of the albums and estate stuff. This is merely having to rebuy it all again as its limited edition.
I am assuming most of us have all of these albums and are weary of buying all the special editions like the Off the wall documentary and Bad25 (Which was good, I will admit), but do we need another rehash of the albums we have 3 or 4 copies already. This is exploiting fans of an artist and in this case it is like they are not even adding some gimmick so we will buy it.
Seriously, who will buy this and what does it actually have that is new, except maybe some notes or a new image. I can not see any evidence of some more songs or any mixes or anything. It looks like it has been brought out as Michael's 60th birthday is coming and the estate needs to ensure the fans are still buying stuff.
Now I will get off the soapbox and finally like someone said, Michael would not approve of this and the "Exclusive pricing" - especially now we have these barn places that sell CD's for like $10 each and you can always find a spare Michael one if you break or lose a CD.

I apologise for that last post - These are vinyl, not CD's.
Oh well, I still think they are very expensive, but who knows I may buy them as my vinyl collection of Michael Jackson is severely lacking.

Pretty shitty of Sony to be emailing retailers with product descriptions that include ‘Jacko’ and ‘self-proclaimed King of Pop’: Embarrassing they seem to not know a great deal about the artist they’re promoting.

I know a fan who already e-mailed the Estate to tell Sony to remove it and change it.

The MJCast has tried for a few days already (they are the ones who received this information), but they've refused to change it and according to Jamon were primarily interested in figuring out who leaked the info to them. www.themjcast.com/thoughts-on-sony/

Has anyone heard back from the estate about it? I doubt contacting Sony will yield any results.

Cancel your pre-orders this is the only way they will change things once they see $$$ going down the pan.

I think there’s much bigger things going on in the world.

Not an eyebrow was raised from me. Nothing they do surprise me.
