Rock 'n' Roll Circus - 4/14 new album information [III] (http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=99082)

I'm praying for RED LINE ~for A WORLD~ to be on the album as a hidden track or something. ;)

Mail from CDJapan regarding the Limited Box set. It's not really good news for us who didn't get to pre-order it, but I'm happy I know this cause it means YesAsia (nor any other store) most likely won't restock either. So I can order CD-only + CD+DVD safely :)

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us.

I know how absurd this is, considering the fact that it won't be released for
a while, but the label has received more pre-orders for the itemthan they
are able to fulfill already.

So, that's why it's shown to be Pre-Order Sold Out, and since it will be released
in a limited quantity,no more of it will become available, I was told.

We are sorry for the inconveneicne. If you have any question, please feel free
to let us know.

That is... excellent.

-scheming fingers-

I honestly think we'll get an encore version of the box set... maybe without tea bags or something.

good thing is...avex probably already got the money they paid for the album back with the limited box (since the tour mostly already pays off itself with merchandise and tickets)

To bring up what TeamAyu/avex had about the limited box:

Quote:

『Rock'n'Roll Circus SPECIAL LIMITED BOX SET（仮）』（AVCD-38104/B～E）につきまして、一部店舗では既に完売しておりますが、TeamAyuオフィシャルショップ、mu-mo ショップ、mu-moプレミアムショップでは会員の皆様のために在庫を確保しております。
ただし先着順のご案内となり、上限数に達し次第、販売終了となりますので予めご了承下さい。

They basically say that they know it's sold out in a bunch of places and that an amount of stock of the boxes was put aside for the mu-mo/TA people [and they were sold out within an hour] and that sales will end as soon as they sell out. Or something. I don't think an encore press will happen with this. Unlike the USBs (some of which are still around solely because of the encore press), the tea will expire in a year...

Well we never know. avex is $$$ hungry, so... besides NEXT LEVEL's USB version got an encore press, so nothing's confirmed but I guess it'll be cooler if it just ends when it sells out... more precious and higher regarded as a "collectible" then.

And she's doing more in Japan now, it seems... -scratches head-

Oh could you share a link please? I'd like to read it too.

now I feel really lucky to have YA and so... you know... now the only way to get the box is going to a store in japan right?? >.<

I also wondered if the tea bags (or tea package?) will have an ayu design (and also what is the amount of tea bags if it comes in bags) :laugh
That would be really cool to have to bags with the A logo on it. ^^

I also wonder what is the extra first press besides the booklet neowing informed about. :x

maybe the tea from the tea bag will produce A-smoke. :P

I'm just wondering now... It's possible that the "TBA" song from the CD only version could be RED LINE live from CDL or a new version of this...

I'm glad I got it through YA. In the beginning I hesitated and was going to wait for CDJ to get re-stock....

I'm more curious about the mug! XD Wth tea... I don't even drink tea!

I bet they will! I'd be surprised if they didn't, the A usually goes on everything.. even those TA bandaids she had before.

this makes me excited that I got a box :D

...?

What? The first press extra will probably not be a song, as that is what is "TBA" about the CD only version right now.

It could be a song. alan's debut album came with the first press bonus song "Together" it's not unheard of in avex. Ayu just hasn't done it yet.

LOL and the news get more and more complicated... Let me try to organize it:

Buy from mu-mo special ayu online shop (limited to TA):
ALBUM CD+DVD --> Original Handphone Stand
ALBUM CD only --> Original Handphone Stand
DVD ~NL~ --> Original Pencase
BOX SET --> Original Handphone Stand + Original Pencase

Buy from mu-mo:
ALBUM CD+DVD --> Jacket Sized Sticker (CD version)
ALBUM CD only --> Jacket Sized Sticker (CD version)
DVD ~NL~ --> Replica of Staff Passcase
BOX SET --> Jacket Sized Sticker (CD version) + Replica of Staff Passcase
(all jacket sized stickers are the same design)

Buy from mu-mo Premium (limited to premium members):
ALBUM CD+DVD --> Special Sticker
ALBUM CD only --> Special Sticker
DVD ~NL~ --> Jacket Sized Sticker (DVD version)
BOX SET --> Special Sticker + Jacket Sized Sticker (DVD version)
(all jacket sized stickers are the same design)

Basically, mu-mo offers the same product at 3 different places on its site, and each offers its own range of free goodies. Depending on where you place an order, you'll get the free goods listed at that site ONLY. So unless you're darn rich and can afford to buy the same album/DVD/box set 3 times over, it's impossible to collect all those free goods.

Lol btw, the box set is sold out at all 3 sites. :lech

ps: I meant "There are no extra mu-mo only goodies." if you order at the special ayu online shop. Read this post for explanation. ^^

WTF!!!!

so i have to get like 4 versions and above if i want the extra stuff!

i'm getting the cd only, TA version.
it will be great if it comes with the mumo special sticker too....i don't feel like buying the CD+DVD for it when i already got the box set from YA...

and the pencase and the staff pass sounds cool, but i do not want to buy another 2 more DVDs when i got them already!!!
i'll haunt YAJ then....

DAMM YOU AVEX!!!!!!!!! :eviltongu

It's true!

And how you say "could be". It will be a new thing for Ayumi too!
