I read that there is a US Carnaby Red coming out. Plus in every pop up store around the world they are selling Carnaby Red. So much for limited edition.
Are there any real limited editions besides the zoetrope at 10,000 and the Assai Records clear vinyl at 500?
I would like to know the numbers on all these records.

What’s this Assai records version? How’s it different from the other clear vinyl ones?

Carnaby Street store had 700 red vinyls yesterday, which might or might not be some sort of guide as to how many there actually are. I'm guessing around 3000 or so?
The nearby Paul Smith store had 180 of his edition and told me there were 2500 globally.

Super happy with the vinyl sound. Gatefold would have been nicer with some session photos inside but anyway... The inner sleeves bother me a bit (I have the clear Indie exclusive and the curazao with the alternate cover, both CZ pressings) as both came with two: a black generic anti-static one and a cardboard one with the credits on it.
Both don't fit well into the cover and the black doesn't fit into the cardboard... Anybody has the same experience? What are you doing?

I've had to return two copies of the purple vinyl because of swooshing noises during those songs. Ordered a black copy from Amazon in hopes that it sounds better, so that is not encouraging!

Is that the Target purple, or European fuschia?

That's been an issue before . The 71 to 2016 boxed set suffered in the same way.
It's obviously now beyond the industry even to make sleeves to fit the records.
[This pointless fashion for thick 180g vinyl [often with rough square edges] doesn't help...and they're still always warped to buggery]

What I always do (did so with this one and all albums in the Studio albums vinyl box: replace white or black inner and replace it with nagaoka inner and put this in the lyrics cardboard. And this last one goes in the outer sleeve. Always fits.

Do you keep the original sleeves somewhere else then? And if so, how do you know which goes with which album? To be a collector, one must have the complete item....

Also, did we ever get definitive confirmation that the FNAC exclusive pop-up is a real thing, or a mistake?

It's still in this article from Oct. 19th by actuParis - [actu.fr] . Someone should look it up (again) in FNAC Paris, Forum des Halles. But the pictures - [iorr.org] - show only the Carnaby Red (cover with a hand below the diamond heart). You could also make your own edition by taking the alternative Amazon-cover and inserting the Carnaby Red instead.
