I guess limited version for me!! because I can’t picture putting a glass on taeyeon’s pretty face. haha.
I dont understand what a rubber roller coaster is lol
Haha, rubber coaster, not rollercoaster (although that sounds strangely fun…)! A coaster is a little mat that you put drinks on, so they’ll probably have the girls’ faces on them and you can put your mug down on their face :p
AHHH I just googled, thanks so much for clearing lol. Yah at first i was like wth, are they seriously giving a completely unrelated toy and that alone increases price for quite a bit. I think i’ll get the poster set instead 😛 Only $3 more on YA.
hahaha me too
i thank the universe that the dvd and photobooks are exactly the same! YES!!! Thank god! (I wouldnt be able to affort both)
Too expensive! Maybe later… But I would buy a 2012 SNSD calendar, where is it, SM?
err.. just me or does Yesasia and CDJapan have the coasters for the first press and the posters for the limited edition mixed up?
IDK either but some people thought that First press = poster, but YA states that limited ed = posters, first ed = coasters. I dont know which is which, but hopefully the one i preordered (limited edition w/ poster set) really DOES have posters or i’ll be pissed
Nayutawave/Universal have updated the discography page on their website. The Limited Pressing/Limited Period = Posters, Limited Edition/First Press = Coasters. I think the confusion is probably more to do with translating it, and that SM decided to release two different limited editions…
Yeah its weird, even now the names u just mentioned sounded too similar lol. I wish its like first press edition and limited edition instead of limited pressing and limited ed. Good thing YA included description on what is included or Im sure most buyers would be misled by the naming
Hi~! Anyone know of anywhere that still has Limited Pressing Edition with Rolled Posters available for pre order? Please help me I really wanna get this album but YA has soldout and hmvjapan have only folded posters T_T
Repackage albums limited pressing edition with rolled posters are still available through JapanHomeMaker. Visit http://www.facebook.com/pages/JapanHomeMaker/138978759524362?ref=tn_tnmn
Okay Thank you very much =D
@Japan Homemaker
I have sent you a message on Facebook
Anyone knows how to order with debit card from CDJapan? My credit card is maxed out so I can’t use paypal. 😛
it’s the same as with credit card.
put in the 16 digit number on the front of your card and the 3 digit number on the back of it. choose what type of card (VISA, master) and you’re good to go.
Sigh anyone still got any deal for ROLLED posters set?
Seems to be sold out everywhere.
Please someone i’m desperate for the roll poster set.
anyone know how does the 2 posters look like?
One poster is a close up shot of the girls (more like the cover;
different image thoughthe image is exactly the same from cover), and one is more further away. We will try to update the poster images ASAP, at the meantime you can search some unboxing videos on Youtube to get a better idea of how the posters looks like ^^Oh crap totally forgot that I can check unboxing videos on youtube lol. Hahahaha saw the posters. Thank You =D
For people who are hesitating because of the region 2 DVD, it only affects standalone DVD players. The DVD was fully playable on my desktop (set to region 3).
FYI: The coasters are words (pretty cartoonlike if u ask me).
Thanks for the links! I’ve ordered The Limited Edition with 2 posters from CDJapan!
Was too worried that it’ll be out of stock soon XD
Is anyone updating this site? In the meantime this album was released in a Korean version. Is the lack of photobook the only difference?
