It is a good thing that these are not very generic looking and have a more unique touch on them.

I am glad I ordered 3 and hoping I ll get at least 2 different styles.
A VanLearBuss like the ones thirdtesla and AlabamaWoody got are the tits!

Oh and I see some that indeed look like a split color between 2 different shades of blue.
Nice!

I got 3 as well and would love a solid blue or the split colour blue and a decent bolt. It would be nice to frame an original bolt next to the inverted bolt, next to a solid blue next to a split colour blue...

You could line them up in order: black, bolt, Blundercow, split inverted bolt, inverted bolt, blunderblue. You'll need a big frame.

great idea. this could actually be the cheapest variant collecting of an album ever. They are only $20 instead of $300 on eBay

Because I like comparing things, I decided to weigh this record vs. other records for weight, here's what I found -

Inverted Lightning Bolt - 123g
Regular Bolt - 140g
Regular Blunderbuss - 187g

I was quite surprised at how little vinyl they used on these inverted bolts.

Agreed, the inverted bolts feel flimsy as hell...might make for a frisbee as opposed to a record.

I just wanted to add that I absolutely love the fact that you actually weighed them. Seriously, I think it's so awesome.

Yup. Flimsy as hell. I wonder if that had anything o do with the frikkin chipped edges on mine.
Still beautiful as all get out, but man...there have been a few people mention the apparent lack of quality control with regard to TMR as of late, and I reserved juxgement, but at this point? I love you TMR, but some desperate reigning in is needed.

YES. I agree.

I haven't been able to play sides III and four of my vault package because of how wobbly the record is.



That'll happen on either side throughout and the first time I attempted to play it, it nearly my sent stylus flying

[chadeg]

I agree too, the label on one side of my bolt is pasted very bad. There are a lot of airbubbles under it...

[mattieg25]

My vault is perfect, but my IB has a pretty decent chunk missing from the edge, waiting on a response from TMR.

Kudos for weighing them! I love it. I too was a bit surprised at how flimsy the LP felt in my hand. I wasn't expecting a 180g slab, but certainly I was at least expecting something weightier, closer to the regular Bolt. Oh well—not disappointed, was just a bit surprised.

I love the fact that you have weighed the record - it did feel light and I was wondering how it matched up to the other versions. Mine is in good conditiion and I have posted a picture of it on my blog, along with a few words about it. http://everyrecordtellsastory.com/2012/ ... underbuss/
Looking forward to the Vault #14 next...
